Introduction to OsteoporosisOsteoporosis is a systemic multi-causal skeletal disease that is prone to fractures due to changes in systemic bone mass and microstructure of bone tissue, resulting in increased bone fragility. Osteoporosis is a type of disease that is difficult to cure. According to the etiology, it can be divided into primary osteoporosis, secondary osteoporosis and idiopathic ...
No parent wants to hear their child has a condition that might affect their education, family life, and overall well-being. Unfortunately, there’s currently no restorative treatment for short bowel syndrome (SBS). Monitoring nutrition is a lifelong necessity for anyone with this disorder. This means that no matter the cause of SBS, there are certain things you should know about nutrition ...
ABSTRACT Previous subgroup analyses from the ACTIVE trial in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis (NCT01343004) using three-dimensional (3D)-processing of dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans indicated greater increases in total hip cortical volumetric bone mineral density (Ct.vBMD) and estimated indices of hip strength following 18 months of abaloparatide (ABL) versus placebo or ...
Abstract Introduction: Few data exist on the effects of bone-targeted exercise on geometric and biomechanical indices of bone strength in men. ...
Testing included DXA- and pQCT-derived measures of bone mass and indices of bone strength and QUS-derived measures of bone quality of the dominant (D) and non-dominant (ND) upper (radius) and lower limbs (femoral neck, tibia, calcaneus). ...
Mixing techniques used to reduce porosity in bone cement demonstrate large improvements in fatigue behaviour in test specimens, but do not appear to reduce the rate of loosening of implants in vivo. We examined data showing the effect of notches on fatigue strength and found, surprisingly, that notches with low stress-concentration factors (Kt Keywords: mixing technique, fatigue strength, bone ...
