Changes in forearm bone mass and bone size after menopause--a mean 24-year prospective study.
OBJECTIVE Bone loss and periosteal expansion is found after menopause. The accelerated early postmenopausal bone loss is not permanent but if the same accounts for the periosteal expansion is unknown. METHODS Bone mineral density (BMD) and skeletal structure of the distal forearm were followed from menopause and on average 24 years (range 18-28) by single-photon absorptiometry at 12 occasions...
متن کاملDensitometric kneecap changes after unilateral knee arthroplasty.
PURPOSE To assess bone density of kneecaps in subjects with femoro-tibial prosthesis before and after surgery by means of DEXA examination. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We examined 34 patients with unilateral femoro-tibial prosthesis, 20 healthy subjects of the same age and non-carriers of knee replacement and 14 healthy young adult subjects. All the data sets were analysed by two radiologists (AS an...
متن کاملIncreased bone resorption during the first year after stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Significant bone mineral density (BMD) reduction occurs in stroke patients on the hemiplegic side compared with the intact side. To elucidate the pathogenesis of hip fractures in this population, we measured serum markers of bone metabolism and BMD in the stroke patients within 1 year (early group) and between 1 and 2 years after onset of hemiplegia (long-term group). M...
متن کاملUlnar nerve paralysis after forearm bone fracture☆
Paralysis or nerve injury associated with fractures of forearm bones fracture is rare and is more common in exposed fractures with large soft-tissue injuries. Ulnar nerve paralysis is a rare condition associated with closed fractures of the forearm. In most cases, the cause of paralysis is nerve contusion, which evolves with neuropraxia. However, nerve lacerations and entrapment at the fracture...
متن کاملclinical and radiographic methods of marginal bone loss evaluation after immediate implantation in post-extraction sockets.
Introduction: To achieve the best esthetic and functional results of implantation and patient satisfaction, different protocols of implant therapy have been recommended. Immediate implantation can provide the outcome faster than other protocols making it the treatment of choice. The rate of peri-implant bone resorption should be measured clinically and radiographically as bone support is a key ...
