Muscle anatomy and dynamic muscle function in osteogenesis imperfecta type I.
CONTEXT Results of previous studies suggested that children and adolescents with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type I have a muscle force deficit. However, muscle function has only been assessed by static isometric force tests and not in more natural conditions such as dynamic force and power tests. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess lower extremity dynamic muscle function and m...
متن کاملMuscle abnormalities in osteogenesis imperfecta
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is mainly characterized by bone fragility but muscle abnormalities have been reported both in OI mouse models and in children with OI. Muscle mass is decreased in OI, even when short stature is taken into account. Dynamic muscle tests aiming at maximal eccentric force production reveal functional deficits that can not be explained by low muscle mass alone. However, ...
متن کاملThe functional muscle-bone unit in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta type I.
CONTEXT Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type I is a heritable bone fragility disorder that is caused by mutations affecting collagen type I. We recently showed that patients with OI type I frequently have muscle weakness. As muscle force and bone mass are usually closely related, we hypothesized that muscle weakness in OI type I could contribute to increase bone mass deficit in the lower extremiti...
متن کاملHeterogeneity of osteogenesis imperfecta type I.
We have studied 166 patients from 71 families with Sillence type I osteogenesis imperfecta (dominant inheritance and blue sclerae). We confirm earlier findings that there are two subgroups, those with and those without dentinogenesis imperfecta; each family can be allocated to one or other group. Our confidence that the two groups represent distinct disorders is increased by finding that the pa...
متن کاملOsteogenesis imperfecta type I: A case report
A 15-year-old male patient was admitted to hospital having experienced repeated fractures over the previous three years, predominantly due to falling down or overexertion. The clinical signs and radiological features, such as recurrent fractures, blue sclera and low bone mineral density (BMD) level, all led to the diagnosis of a mild form of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type I. The patient bega...
