Serum ferritin levels and bone mineral density in the elderly
Background: Iron overload influences negatively on bone mineral density (BMD) but the results of studies regarding serum ferritin (SF) and BMD are conflicting.This study aimed to determine the association of SF and BMD in the elderly. Methods: All participants of the Amirkola cohort selected between 2011-2012, aged > 60 years were classified as high or normal (<200ng/ml) SF. BMD at femoral nec...

متن کاملBone Mineral Density in Hemodialysis Patients
Introduction Marked progress has been achieved in the management of hemodialysis (HD) in recent years; resulting in eliciting a new issue that renal osteodystrophy has become one of the most serious complications in these patients. Recently, non-invasive techniques to measure bone mineral density (BMD), such as dual photon absorptiometry, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), and quantitativ...
متن کاملBone mineral density in hemophilia patients.
Patients with hemophilia suffer from low bone mineral density (BMD) due to several risk factors including arthropathy and resulting immobility. Recent studies have shown variable frequency of low BMD in this group of patients. This study attempts to assess the prevalence of low BMD (osteoporosis and osteopenia) and the associated risk factors in a group of Iranian hemophilia patients. Patients ...
متن کاملBone Mineral Density in Children with Relapsing Nephrotic Syndrome
AbstractBackground: Given the high relapse rate of disease in children with steroid dependent nephrotic syndrome and the osteoporotic effect of long periods of steroid therapy, this survey was performed to find the bone mineral status of these patients. Methods: Bone mineral density and content (BMD and BMC) were measured using Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in 37 nephrotic children, six girl...
