Bone Mineral Content and Density.
The availability of high-throughput biochemical and imaging techniques that can be used on live mice has increased the possibility of undertaking longitudinal studies to characterize skeletal changes such as bone mineral content and density. Further characterization of bone morphology, bone quality, and bone strength can also be achieved by analyzing dissected bones using techniques that provid...
متن کاملSerum 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 کاملComparing bone mineral density in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis
Background: Changes in patients’ bone mineral density (BMD) is one of the problems in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, which can be due to the use of corticosteroid drugs to reduce patients' symptoms or due to the aging process in patients. In this study, we decided to compare BMD in patients with psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Methods: This study as a cross-sectional descrip...
متن کاملBone modeling in bromocriptine-treated pregnant and lactating rats: possible osteoregulatory role of prolactin in lactation.
The lactogenic hormone prolactin (PRL) directly regulates osteoblast functions in vitro and modulates bone remodeling in nulliparous rats, but its osteoregulatory roles in pregnant and lactating rats with physiological hyperprolactinemia remained unclear. Herein, bone changes were investigated in rats treated with bromocriptine (Bromo), an inhibitor of pituitary PRL release, or Bromo+PRL at dif...
متن کاملBone Mineral Density and Cystic Fibrosis: A Review
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common progressive genetic disorder among children which involves lungs, kidneys, intestine and liver. Apart from the significance of genetic factors, various environmental factors particularly bone mineral density are directly associated with CF. Remarkably, bone disease is appeared as a routine and commo...
