Bone loss and bone size after menopause.
BACKGROUND Bone loss increases after menopause. However, bone strength also depends on structural characteristics such as bone size. Whether bone size increases as a result of periosteal apposition and whether a strength index accounting for both bone density and bone size might predict the risk of fracture better than bone density alone are unclear. METHODS Bone mass and the skeletal structu...

متن کاملRates of bone loss in the appendicular and axial skeletons of women. Evidence of substantial vertebral bone loss before menopause.
We made longitudinal measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) in 139 normal women (ages 20-88 yr) at midradius (99% cortical bone) and lumbar spine (approximately 70% trabecular bone) by single- and dual-photon absorptiometry. BMD was measured 2-6 (median, 3) times over an interval of 0.8-3.4 yr (median, 2.1 yr). For midradius, BMD did not change (+0.48%/yr, NS) before menopause but decreased...
متن کاملDeterminants of the first decade of bone loss after menopause at spine, hip and radius.
This study documented bone loss at three different sites in the early postmenopausal period, and examined potential predictors. Forty-three women underwent repeated measurements of bone density at the lumbar spine, proximal femur and distal radius for up to 14 years. Individual rates of bone loss were calculated for the spine and hip; for radial trabecular bone, rates were calculated separately...
متن کاملUse of a risk factor and dietary calcium questionnaire in predicting bone density and subsequent bone loss at the menopause.
One hundred and thirty six healthy white females within 30 months of their last menstrual period (mean age 52 years) were examined to determine the usefulness of a risk factor questionnaire in predicting bone density and subsequent loss. Bone density was assessed at baseline and at 12 monthly intervals. None of the proposed risk factor variables with the exception of nulliparity correlated with...
