Evaluation of bone mass density in healthy individuals in Ahvaz (2000-2003)
Background: Osteoporosis is one of the most common problems in the women, especially after menopause and at the old age. Bone densitometry of vertebrae of lumbar region and femoral neck is a non invasive and precise method for evaluation of bone mass density (BMD) and determination of fracture risk. Materials and Method: from different districts of Ahvaz city, more than 300 healthy men and wo...
متن کاملSupplemental fish oil decreases urinary excretion of a marker of bone resorption in healthy adults
Background: Incorporation of fish oil (FO) into the diet of rodents has been shown to result in positive changes in bone health. Currently it is poorly understood if FO has the same effects on bone health in humans. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of supplemental FO on levels of urinary Nterminal cross-linked telopeptide (NTx), which is a marker of bone breakdown, and how...
متن کاملAssociation between Homocysteine and Bone Mineral Density according to Age and Sex in Healthy Adults
BACKGROUND There are several studies about the relationship between serum homocysteine levels and bone mineral density (BMD), but the results are varied, and the studies are limited in Korea. In our study, the relationship between serum homocysteine levels and BMD by part according to age and sex is investigated. METHODS From March 2012 to July 2015, the 3,337 healthy adults who took a medica...
متن کاملThe Macular Carotenoids Lutein and Zeaxanthin Are Related to Increased Bone Density in Young Healthy Adults
Lutein (L) and zeaxanthin (Z) status can be quantified by measuring their concentrations both in serum and, non-invasively, in retinal tissue. This has resulted in a unique ability to assess their role in a number of tissues ranging from cardiovascular to central nervous system tissue. Recent reports using animal models have suggested yet another role, a developmental increase in bone mass. To ...
متن کاملRelationship between Serum Inflammatory Marker and Bone Mineral Density in Healthy Adults.
BACKGROUND Inflammatory markers have been shown to play an important role in bone remodeling. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among serum C-reactive protein (CRP), adiponectin, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and bone health in healthy adults. METHODS We measured serum levels of CRP, adiponectin, TNF-α as well as lumbar spine and femoral neck bone mineral den...
