Low bone mass--assessing absolute fracture risk and the need to treat younger postmenopausal women.
The need to initiate treatment for a postmenopausal woman with a low bone mass should be based on that individual's fracture risk over a fnite period of time. Fracture assessment tools, such as the recently introduced FRAX(TM) model, allows the clinician to estimate an individual's absolute fracture risk over the next decade of their life. Such estimates are particularly useful for younger post...
متن کاملEffects of short-term Nordic walking training on sarcopenia-related parameters in women with low bone mass: a preliminary study
BACKGROUND Several studies have demonstrated the positive effects of physical activity on skeletal muscle mass and muscle strength in women with osteoporosis. However, the impact of Nordic walking training on sarcopenia-related parameters in women with low bone mass remains unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of 12 weeks of Nordic walking training on skeleta...
متن کاملGenetic determination of Colles' fracture and differential bone mass in women with and without Colles' fracture.
Osteoporotic fractures (OFs) are a major public health problem. Direct evidence of the importance and, particularly, the magnitude of genetic determination of OF per se is essentially nonexistent. Colles' fractures (CFs) are a common type of OF. In a metropolitan white female population in the midwestern United States, we found significant genetic determination of CF. The prevalence (K) of CF i...
متن کاملPolymorphisms associated with low bone mass and high risk of atraumatic fracture.
Osteoporosis is a serious disease characterized by high morbidity and mortality due to atraumatic fractures. In the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, except environment and internal factors, such as hormonal imbalance and genetic background, are also in play. In this study candidate genes for osteoporosis were classified according to metabolic or hormonal pathways, which regulate bone mineral densi...
