Bone mass and structure in adolescents with type 1 diabetes compared to healthy peers
SUMMARY: We measured bone mass and structure using pQCT and DXA in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes and compared the results with those...
The effects of high potassium consumption on bone mineral density in a prospective cohort study of elderly postmenopausal women
SUMMARY: Few studies have investigated the long-term effects of potassium intake on BMD. In a cohort of 266 elderly women, we found tha...
Strength indices from pQCT imaging predict up to 85% of variance in bone failure properties at tibial epiphysis and diaphysis
Our primary objective was to validate the Bone Strength Index for compression (BSIC) by determining the amount of variance in failure l...
Muscle-bone relationships in the lower leg of healthy pre-pubertal females and males
Muscle-bone relationships in healthy pre-pubertal children were investigated using four muscle measures as predictors of tibial strengt...
