There were significant, sustained, between-group differences in the BMD of the leg, forearm and overall body. The authors have now completed a 2-year extension of this study, with a view to ...

Multiparametric quantitative MRI could potentially help differentiate between Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker muscular ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of one year of progressive resistance exercise (PRE) on dynamic muscular strength and the relations to bone mineral density (BMD) in elderly ...

This finding, together with reports of an association between metabolic disease and osteoporosis, and improved BMD in patients treated with statins, led the researchers to examine the impact of ...

Researchers calculated the likelihood of achieving a BMD T-score of –2.5 or higher with denosumab based on baseline BMD. Minimum baseline BMD T-scores for denosumab success varied based on ...

Three risk assessment tools struggled to detect osteoporosis based on bone mineral density T-scores among women aged 50 to 64 years, researchers reported in a study published in JAMA Network Open.

Although BMD measurements are useful for diagnosis, there is no precise and consistent relationship between a given increase in BMD and a specific decrease in fracture risk with osteoporosis therapy.

Objective Normal-weight oligo-amenorrhoeic athletes (OAA) are at risk for low bone mineral density (BMD). Data are lacking regarding the impact of oestrogen administration on bone outcomes in OAA. Our ...
