The aim of the study was to investigate the relationships between specific anthropometric (9 skinfolds, 13 girths, 8 lengths and 8 breadths), body composition (body fat %, fat free mass [FFM], fat mass [FM]) parameters and bone mineral parameters (bone mineral density [BMD], bone mineral content [BMC) in young rhythmic gymnasts and same age controls. Eighty nine 7-8-year-old girls participated in this study and were divided to the rhythmic gymnast's (n = 46) and control (n = 43) groups. Body composition was determined by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (FFM, FM, body fat %, BMD and BMC). Body fat % and FM were lower and BMD and BMC values at lumbar spine (L2-L4) and femoral neck were higher in rhythmic gymnasts compared with controls. All measured skinfold thicknesses were thicker in controls. In girths, lengths and widths there were only few significant differences between the groups. Stepwise multiple regression analysis indicated that skinfold thicknesses (supraspinale and medial calf) influenced L2-L4 BMD only in controls 38.2% (R2x100). Supraspinale and iliac crest skinfold thicknesses characterised L2-L4 BMC 43.9% (R2x100). Calf girths influenced BMD in L2-L4 52.3% (R2x100) in controls. BMC in L2-L4 was dependent only on mid-thigh girths 35.9% (R2x100). BMD in L2-L4 was dependent on tibiale-laterale height 30.0% (R2x100). Biiliocristal breadths together with sitting height characterised BMC in L2-L4 BMD 62.3% (R2x100). In conclusion, we found that the relationships between anthropometry, body composition and bone parameters in young rhythmic gymnasts are weak. In control group first of all lower body anthropometric parameters significantly correlated with BMD and BMC in spine. 相似文献

The aim of the present investigation was to study the influence of plasma insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and leptin levels on bone mineral mass (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) in premenopausal women and the relationship between IGF-1 and leptin levels. Two hundred and four healthy women participated in this study. All participants had a body mass index (BMI) <30 kg/m(2) and were matched for their level of mean daily energy expenditure. BMC and BMD were correlated with measured body composition and blood biochemical parameters. No association was observed between BMC and BMD values with measured physical performance characteristics. Leptin had a significant association with BMC (beta = 0.840; P = 0.0001), total BMD (beta = 0.833; P = 0.0001), femoral neck BMD (beta = 0.829; P = 0.0001), and lumbar spine BMD (beta = 0.833; P = 0.0001). However, these associations were no longer independent when adjusted for body fat mass (FM) and trunk fat:leg fat ratio (P > 0.385). IGF-1 was significantly related to BMC (beta = 0.920; P = 0.0001), total BMD (beta = 0.918; P = 0.0001), femoral neck BMD (beta = 0.921; P = 0.0001), and lumbar spine BMD (beta = 0.917; P = 0.0001), but did not remain significant when adjusted for fat free mass (FFM; P > 0.062). In addition, a significant association between IGF-1 and leptin was found (beta = 0.801; P = 0.0001), and it remained significant after controlling for age, FM, FFM, insulin, and fasting insulin resistance index (FIRI), but not when adjusted for BMC and body mass values. In conclusion, it appears that fasting IGF-1 and leptin concentrations have no direct effect on BMC and BMD values. In addition, if there is an important relationship between IGF-1 and leptin, it is mediated or confounded by BMC in premenopausal women. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to use estimates of body composition from a four-component model to determine whether the density of the fat-free mass (D(FFM)) is affected by muscularity or musculoskeletal development in a heterogenous group of athletes and nonathletes. Measures of body density by hydrostatic weighing, body water by deuterium dilution, bone mineral by whole body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), total body skeletal muscle estimated from DXA, and musculoskeletal development as measured by the mesomorphy rating from the Heath-Carter anthropometric somatotype were obtained in 111 collegiate athletes (67 men and 44 women) and 61 nonathletes (24 men and 37 women). In the entire group, D(FFM) varied from 1.075 to 1.127 g/cm3 and was strongly related to the water and protein fractions of the fat-free mass (FFM; r = -0.96 and 0.89) and moderately related to the mineral fraction of the FFM (r = 0.65). Skeletal muscle (%FFM) varied from 40 to 68%, and mesomorphy varied from 1.6 to 9.6, but neither was significantly related to D(FFM) (r = 0.11 and -0.14) or to the difference between percent fat estimated from the four-component model and from densitometry (r = 0.09 and -0.16). We conclude that, in a heterogeneous group of young adult athletes and nonathletes, D(FFM) and the accuracy of estimates of body composition from body density using the Siri equation are not related to muscularity or musculoskeletal development. Athletes in selected sports may have systematic deviations in D(FFM) from the value of 1.1 g/cm3 assumed in the Siri equation, resulting in group mean errors in estimation of percent fat from densitometry of 2-5% body mass, but the cause of these deviations is complex and not simply a reflection of differences in muscularity or musculoskeletal development. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The present investigation was aimed to evaluate the effect of subclinical hypothyroidism and obesity on bone mineral content (BMC) in different body segments. METHODS: Thirty-two premenopausal women (age: 37 +/- 9.9 years), with a wide range in body mass index (BMI), were studied. Subclinical hypothyroidism was defined by a basal TSH > or = 4 microU/l and/or a TRH-stimulated peak > or = 30 microU/l. For each subject, weight, height, BMI (weight/height(2)) and the waist/hip ratio were measured. Total BMC, total bone mineral density (BMD), leg BMC, leg BMD, trunk BMC, trunk BMD, arm BMC and arm BMD were determined using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Thyroid function (basal and TRH-stimulated TSH, free T(3) and free T(4)) were determined from fasting blood samples for all subjects. RESULTS: Anova was conducted within all the groups to observe the effect of thyroid status and/or obesity on BMC and BMD. There was no statistical difference for age. Total BMC was affected by obesity (p < 0.05) but not by thyroid status, BMD of the legs was significantly influenced both by thyroid function and obesity (p < 0.01); total BMD was affected by hypothyroid status (p < 0.05). A direct relationship between leg BMD and TSH was demonstrated. CONCLUSION: Subclinical thyroid hypofunction and obesity seem to affect BMD differently in the body segments. An influence of gravitational force seems necessary in order to make evident the effect of subclinical hypothyroidism on bone. A condition of subclinical hypothyroidism should be considered when evaluating subjects for osteoporosis, since a BMD measured at the femoral neck may induce underestimation of initial osteoporosis. 相似文献

Hormonally controlled differences in bone mineral density (BMD) between males and females are well studied. The effects of cross-sex hormones on bone metabolism in patients with early onset gender identity disorder (EO-GID), however, are unclear. We examined BMD, total body fat (TBF) and total lean body mass (TLBM) in patients prior to initiation of sex hormone treatment and during treatment at months 3 and 12. The study included 33 EO-GID patients who were approved for sex reassignment and a control group of 122 healthy Norwegians (males, n=77; females, n=45). Male patients (n=12) received an oral dose of 50 mug ethinylestradiol daily for the first 3 months and 100 mug daily thereafter. Female patients (n=21) received 250 mg testosterone enantate intramuscularly every third week. BMD, TBF and TLBM were estimated using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). In male patients, the DXA measurements except TBF were significantly lower compared to their same-sex control group at baseline and did not change during treatment. In female patients, the DXA measurements were slightly higher than in same-sex controls at baseline and also remained unchanged during treatment. In conclusion, this study reports that body composition and bone density of EO-GID patients show less pronounced sex differences compared to controls and that bone density was unaffected by cross-sex hormone treatment. 相似文献

The impact of race and resistance training status on the assumed density of the fat-free mass (D(FFM)) and estimates of body fatness via hydrodensitometry (%Fat(D)) vs. a four-component model (density, water, mineral; %Fat(D,W,M)) were determined in 45 men: white controls (W; n = 15), black controls (B; n = 15), and resistance-trained blacks (B-RT; n = 15). Body density by hydrostatic weighing, body water by deuterium dilution, and bone mineral by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry were used to estimate %Fat(D,W,M). D(FFM) was not different between B and W (or 1.1 g/ml); however, D(FFM) in B-RT was significantly lower (1.091 +/- 0.012 g/ml; P < 0.05). Therefore, %Fat(D) using the Siri equation was not different from %Fat(D,W,M) in W (17.5 +/- 5.0 vs. 18.3 +/- 5.4%) or B (14.9 +/- 5.6 vs. 15.7 +/- 5.7%) but significantly overestimated %Fat(D,W,M) in B-RT (14.0 +/- 5.9 vs. 10.4 +/- 6.0%; P < 0.05). The use of a race-specific equation (assuming D(FFM) = 1.113 g/ml) did not improve the agreement between %Fat(D) and %Fat(D,W,M), resulting in a significantly greater mean (+/-SD) discrepancy for B (1.7 +/- 1.8% fat) and B-RT (6.2 +/- 4.3% fat). Thus race per se does not affect D(FFM) or estimates of %Fat(D); however, B-RT have a D(FFM) lower than 1.1 g/ml, leading to an overestimation of %Fat(D). 相似文献

The present study was performed to measure appendicular bone mass of Japanese infants and children, and to assess the influence of age, sex and body size on bone mass during the period of bone growth. The bone mineral content (BMC) and bone width (BW) at the distal third of the radius were measured by single photon absorptiometry (SPA) in 229 healthy Japanese infants and children aged 0–12 years, and the BMC/BW ratio was calculated to give the bone mineral density (BMD). BMC and BW increased with age until 2 years, while BMD did not obviously change until 2 years. After 2 years of age, the overall effect of aging appeared more prominent in BMC and BMD than in BW. There were no significant differences in BMC, BW and BMD between males and females aged 0–12 years. Age, body height, and body weight were strongly correlated with three parameters of bone mass (BMC, BW, and BMD). Among the three parameters of bone mass, BMC showed the highest Pearson coefficient of correlation with age (r = 0.955), body height (r = 0.957) and body weight (r = 0.966), as compared with BW and BMD. The present cross-sectional study provides normative data of the appendicular bone mass in healthy Japanese children, which may serve as a standard for assessment of bone mineralization in Japanese infants and children with medical problems. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of dexamethasone eye drops on bone metabolism in newborn rabbits. METHODS: Thirty-four 3-week-old rabbits had unilateral clear lens extraction and were randomized into three groups. Postoperatively, group 1 received high-dose and group 2 low-dose dexamethasone eye drops (average doses 0.27 and 0.10 mg/kg body weight/day, respectively). These rabbits also received a postoperative subconjunctival injection of betamethasone. Group 3 (control) received vehicle eye drops only. After 8 weeks of treatment, all animals were killed and the left femurs were isolated and subjected to peripheral quantitative computerized tomography (pQCT) and dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) analyses. RESULTS: DXA showed that rabbits treated with either a high or low dose of dexamethasone eye drops had significantly reduced areal bone mineral density (BMD), area and total bone mineral content (BMC) of the femur. Measurements with pQCT demonstrated a dose-dependent reduction in cortical BMC, cortical volumetric BMD and cortical area. These effects were associated with an inhibition of radial femur growth, cortical thickness and periosteal and endosteal circumferences. CONCLUSION: Dexamethasone eye drops have systemic effects affecting several bone parameters in young rabbits. Any long-term systemic effects of ocular glucocorticoids need to be further studied. 相似文献

It has been suggested that the appropriate timing of puberty is necessary for normal bone mineral acquisition which may not be achieved amongst patients with Turner's syndrome (TS). The aim of this study was to assess bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover in 34 patients with TS (age range 2.2-39.0 years). The areal BMD (aBMD) was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and the volumetric BMD was calculated. Blood and second voided urine samples were taken the morning after an overnight fast for evaluation of the biochemical markers of bone turnover: bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) and N-telopeptides of type I collagen (NTX), respectively. Both were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The patients were divided into three groups: group 1 (n = 13; prepubertal; age range 2.2-19.0 years), group 2 (n = 10; teenagers; age range 12.4-19.0 years), and group 3 (n = 11; adults; chronological age >20 years). They were also grouped by breast development according to Tanner stage into B1 (n = 12), B2-3 (n = 9), and B4-5 (n = 13). The aBMD was significantly lower in group 1 and was higher at Tanner stages 4 and 5 as compared with patients at Tanner stage 1. The bone turnover markers were significantly higher in group 1 (NTX: p = 0.002; BAP: p = 0.0005) and declined, as puberty progressed. A negative correlation was observed between aBMD and biochemical bone markers at the lumbar spine (NTX: r = -0.54, p = 0.05; BAP: r = -0.44, p = 0.01) and in the whole body (NTX: r = -0.60, p = 0.0008; BAP: r = -0.19, p = 0.002). We conclude that the negative relationships between aBMD and biochemical markers suggest a high bone turnover, mainly in prepubertal patients and that the results observed in relation to aBMD and puberty are imputed to the delayed puberty which occurs amongst TS patients. 相似文献

Recent studies report a significant gain in bone mineral density (BMD) after diet-induced weight loss. This might be explained by a measurement artefact. We therefore investigated the impact of intra- and extra-osseous soft tissue composition on bone measurements by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in a longitudinal study of diet-induced weight loss and regain in 55 women and 17 men (19-46 years, BMI 28.2-46.8 kg/m(2)). Total and regional BMD were measured before and after 12.7 ± 2.2 week diet-induced weight loss and 6 months after significant weight regain (≥30%). Hydration of fat free mass (FFM) was assessed by a 3-compartment model. Skeletal muscle (SM) mass, extra-osseous adipose tissue, and bone marrow were measured by whole body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Mean weight loss was -9.2 ± 4.4 kg (P < 0.001) and was followed by weight regain in a subgroup of 24 subjects (+6.3 ± 2.9 kg; P < 0.001). With weight loss, bone marrow and extra-osseous adipose tissue decreased whereas BMD increased at the total body, lumbar spine, and the legs (women only) but decreased at the pelvis (men only, all P < 0.05). The decrease in BMD(pelvis) correlated with the loss in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) (P < 0.05). Increases in BMD(legs) were reversed after weight regain and inversely correlated with BMD(legs) decreases. No other associations between changes in BMD and intra- or extra-osseous soft tissue composition were found. In conclusion, changes in extra-osseous soft tissue composition had a minor contribution to changes in BMD with weight loss and decreases in bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) were not related to changes in BMD. 相似文献

A new method for estimating in vivo bone mineral density (BMD) and characterizing the shape of cancellous bone has been proposed using the results of ultrasonic inspection for the diagnosis of osteoporosis. The method is based on two-dimensional bone area fraction S (percent bone area between bone and bone marrow) calculated from the difference in the speed of ultrasonic wave propagation through cancellous bone. It was shown that the two-dimensional area fraction of a heel bone gives a good relationship to the BMD by DXA (dual energy x-ray absorptiometry) testing of human heel bone (calcaneus) and spine (vertebrae lumbar), as expressed by the relation, BMD (g/cm2) = 0.0167S for heel bone (r = 0.83), and BMD (g/cm2) = 0.0254S + 0.123 for the spine (r = 0.77). Shape characterization is based on the image simulation procedure employing eight random variables from a computer and the statistical results of fractal analysis for numerous cancellous bone patterns. We also demonstrate the validity of the shape characterization using autopsy specimens as a diagnostic tool for osteoporosis. 相似文献

doi: 10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2012.00625.x Comparison of mandibular bone mineral density in osteoporotic, osteopenic and normal elderly edentulous subjects measured by the dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry technique Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the mandibular body bone mineral density according to bone mineral density status of spine and femur measured by dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) technique in elderly edentulous individuals. Background: One of the factors that affect the survival rate of implants is bone mineral density (BMD) of the jaws. Materials and methods: Fifty edentulous elderly patients’ (27 women and 23 men) spine, femur and the mandibular body BMDs were measured using DXA technique. BMD scans of the AP lumbar spine (L2–L3) and femur were classified using World Health Organisation criteria for bone mass. Results: There was a statistically significant difference between the normal femur group’s–osteoporosis group’s mandibular body BMD (p = 0.001) and femoral osteopaenia group’s–osteoporosis group’s mandibular body BMD (p < 0.001). The femoral osteoporosis group’s mandibular body BMDs were lower than those of both the normal femoral and the femoral osteopaenia group subjects’. Conclusion: Classification of edentulous mandibles according to low and high bone mineral densities is a problem in implant dentistry. The results of this study demonstrated that femoral bone mineral density status may be used to provide preliminary information about the bone mineral density of the mandibular body region in elderly edentulous subjects. 相似文献

Measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) alone is only a moderate predictor of fracture risk. Finite element analysis (FEA) of bone mechanics, based on DXA images, may improve the prediction of fracture risk. We developed a method to estimate the 3D shape and density distribution of the proximal femur, using a 2D BMD image and a femur shape template. Proximal femurs of eighteen human cadavers were imaged using computed tomography and divided into two sets (N = 9 + 9). The template was created from the samples in first set by using 3D generalized Procrustes analysis and thin-plate splines. Subsequently, the template and 2D BMD image were utilized to estimate the shape and internal density distribution of the femurs in the second set. Finally, FEA was conducted based on the original and the estimated bone models to evaluate the effect of geometrical and density distributional errors on the mechanical strength. The volumetric errors induced by the estimation itself were low (<1.4%). In the estimation of bones in the second set, the mean distance difference between the estimated and the original bone surfaces was 0.80 ± 0.19 mm, suggesting feasible estimation of the femoral shape. The mean absolute error in voxel-by-voxel BMD was 120±8 mg cm?3. In FEA, the stiffness of the proximal femur differed by -7±16% between the original and estimated bones. The present method, in comparison with methods used in previous studies, improved the prediction of the geometry, the BMD distribution and the mechanical characteristics of the proximal femur. Potentially, the proposed method could ultimately improve the determination of bone fracture risk. 相似文献

Our aim was to study the bone mineral density (BMD) of patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism (hypoPTH) after longterm calcium and vitamin D treatment. Twenty hypoPTH women (mean-/+SD, aged 50-/+15 years, IPTH 4-/+6 pg/ml) and 20 matched euparathyroid women (euPTH) after near total thyroidectomy for thyroid cancer, completed with I-131 ablation and on suppressive therapy with L-Thyroxine (LT(4)), were studied. In addition eight hypoPTH patients who were receiving LT(4) replacement therapy after surgery for compressive goiter were simultaneously studied. The hypoPTH patients were on calcium and 1,25(OH)(2) vitamin D(3) therapy to normalize serum calcium. Bone mineral density (BMD) (DXA, at the lumbar spine [L(2)- L(4), LS], femoral neck [FN] and Ward triangle [WT]), serum and urine calcium, serum phosphorus, TOTALALP and osteocalcin were measured. Patients with hypoPTH showed greater lumbar BMD than euPTH patients on suppressive therapy (Z-score; 1.01-/+1.34 vs. -0.52-/+0.70, p<0.05). Serum osteocalcin levels were higher in hypoPTH patients on suppressive therapy compared to hypoPTH patients on replacement therapy. The LS BMD from hypoPTH patients correlated with calcium supplements (r=0.439; p=0.02), 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) dose (r=0.382; p=0.04) and LT(4) dose (r=0.374; p=0.05). Our data suggest that long-term treatment with calcium and 1,25(OH)(2) vitamin D3 supplements in hypoPTH patients on suppressive LT4 therapy results in increased BMD when compared with patients with normal PTH levels. 相似文献

In the spinal cord injury (SCI) population, a relationship between adiposity and leg bone has not been reported, nor one between serum estradiol and leg bone mass. A cross-sectional, comparative study of 10 male pairs of monozygotic twins discordant for SCI was performed. Relationships were determined among bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), lean mass, fat mass, and serum sex steroids. In the twins with SCI, significant relationships were evident between leg BMD or BMC with total body percent fat (r2= 0.49, P < 0.05; r2= 0.45, P = 0.05), leg fat mass (r2 = 0.76, P < 0.0005; r2= 0.69, P = 0.005), and serum estradiol (r2= 0.40, P = 0.05; r2= 0.37, P = 0.05). By stepwise regression analysis, in the twins with SCI, leg fat mass was found to be the single most significant predictor of leg BMD or BMC (F = 12.01, r2= 0.76, P = 0.008; F = 50.87, r2= 0.86, P < 0.0001). In the able-bodied twins, leg lean mass correlated with leg BMD and BMC (r2= 0.58, P = 0.01; r2= 0.87, P = 0.0001). By use of within-pair differences, significant correlations were found for leg lean mass loss with leg BMD loss (r2= 0.56, P = 0.01) or leg BMC loss (r2= 0.64, P = 0.0005). In conclusion, in twins with SCI, significant correlations were observed between fat mass and leg BMD or BMC as well as between serum estradiol values and leg BMD. The magnitude of the leg muscle mass loss was correlated with the magnitude of bone loss. 相似文献

The aim of the current investigation was to investigate any potential effect of fasting plasma adiponectin concentration on bone tissue, and to find possible relationships of fasting plasma adiponectin level with different body composition, insulin sensitivity and physical performance parameters in a group of healthy perimenopausal women. Twenty-one premenopausal and 17 early postmenopausal women participated in this study. The women were matched for body mass index (BMI) and level of mean daily energy expenditure. Women had similar adiponectin (8.4 +/- 3.9 vs. 9.9 +/- 5.4 microg/ml) and leptin values (12.0 +/- 7.7 vs. 14.0 +/- 8.2 ng/ml) before and after menopause. Significant relationships were observed between plasma adiponectin and bone mineral content, total bone mineral density (BMD) and lumbar spine BMD values (r > - 0.36; p < 0.05). Furthermore, adiponectin had a significant negative association with total BMD (beta = - 1.228; p = 0.004) and lumbar spine BMD (beta = - 0.312; p = 0.005) independent of the influence that other measured body compositional, hormonal or physical performance factors may exert on BMD. Adiponectin was also significantly related to waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (beta = - 2.300; p = 0.002) and fasting insulin resistance index (FIRI) (beta = - 0.006; p = 0.007) in separate regression models. No relationship was observed between leptin and measured bone, physical performance and insulin resistance values. Leptin significantly correlated to BMI (beta = 0.018; p = 0.034), lean body mass (beta = 0.025; p = 0.024) and fat mass (beta = 0.019; p = 0.001) in separate regression models. In conclusion, the results of present study show that circulating adiponectin appears to exert an independent effect on BMD in perimenopausal women and may represent a link between adipose tissue and bone mineral density. 相似文献

This study assessed mouse strain-related differences in vertebral biomechanics and histomorphometry in inbred mice strains shown to differ in bone mineral content (BMC) and areal density (BMD) (as measured by pDEXA). Lumbar vertebrae L3 to L5 were collected from three mice strains (C3H/HeJ[C3], C57BL/6J[B6], and DBA/2J[D2], n=12/strain, 4-month-old female, 22.2 +/- 0.3g). BMC and BMD were measured in L3 and L4 using peripheral dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. The L4 vertebral body was then mechanically tested in compression to determine structural properties (ultimate/yield load, stiffness) from load-displacement curves and derive apparent material properties (ultimate/yield stress, and modulus of elasticity). L5 was processed for histomorphometric evaluation. Vertebral BMC and BMD were greater in C3 than in B6 and D2 mice. Vertebral trabecular/cancellous bone volume was smaller in C3 than in D2 and B6 mice. Trabecular bone formation rates were greater in D2 than in B6 and C3 mice. Osteoid surface was smaller in C3 mice than in B6 and D2 mice. Differences in osteoclast and mineralizing surfaces were not detected among the three mouse strains. In addition, there were no significant differences in biomechanical properties between the three strains. Despite the greatest BMC and areal BMD in C3 mice, the lack of strain-related differences in vertebral body strength data suggests that the biomechanical properties may be affected by the bone distribution and/or complex combination of cortical and cancellous bone at this site. 相似文献

This cross-sectional study investigates the relationship between parity, bone mineral density, and spontaneous osteopenia/osteoporosis in a large skeletal population of female rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) from the free-ranging colony of Cayo Santiago, Puerto Rico. The sample consists of 119 mature female monkeys aged 4.0-22.2 years at time of death. The data consist of measurements of bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD), obtained from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) of the last lumbar vertebra. After controlling for age, there is a significant increase in BMD of the spine with increasing parity (P = 0.0006), up to a parity of 7 offspring. Thus, high parity initially has a positive effect on BMD in female rhesus monkeys, but this positive effect disappears with parities that are greater than 7 offspring. After controlling for parity, however, age has a negative (P = 0.015) effect on BMD, beginning several years after the attainment of peak BMD (age 9.5 years). Thus, it appears that parity initially mitigates the effects of aging, but the positive effect of parity on BMD is eventually overwhelmed by the aging process. Mean BMC and BMD values are higher in parous females compared to nulliparous females in the same age range. Similarly, females with low parity have significantly lower mean BMD values than do age-matched high-parity controls, and the frequency of osteopenia and osteoporosis is greater in low-parity females. Forty-three percent (43%) of the osteopenic/osteoporotic females in the sample are members of the low-parity group, even though it composes only 13% (16/119) of the entire sample. This study demonstrates that the free-ranging female rhesus monkeys from Cayo Santiago are a good nonhuman primate model for the study of bone mineral density, parity, osteopenia, and osteoporosis. 相似文献

Growth hormone (GH) is important for skeletal growth as well as for a normal bone metabolism in adults. The skeletal growth and adult bone metabolism was studied in mice with an inactivated growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene. The lengths of femur, tibia, and crown-rump were, as expected, decreased in GHR-/- mice. Unexpectedly, GHR-/- mice displayed disproportional skeletal growth reflected by decreased femur/crown-rump and femur/tibia ratios. GHR-/- mice demonstrated decreased width of the growth plates in the long bones and disturbed ossification of the proximal tibial epiphysis. Furthermore, the area bone mineral density (BMD) as well as the bone mineral content (BMC)/body weight were markedly decreased in GHR-/- mice. The decrease in BMC in GHR-/- mice was not due to decreased trabecular volumetric BMD but to a decreased cross-sectional cortical bone area In conclusion, GHR-/- mice demonstrate disproportional skeletal growth and markedly decreased bone mineral content. 相似文献

The effect of weight, classified by body mass index (BMI), on bone mass (BMC) of the whole body and on bone mineral density BMD of the hip joint was analysed in a sample of 120 Austrians of Vienna and surroundings. The 68 females and 52 males of this cross sectional study ranged in age between 60 and 92 years (x = 71.7 +/- 7.7). Age distribution was not significantly different between sexes. The WHO (1997) classification of body mass index (BMI) was used for weight classification, i.e. normal weight (BMI 18.5-24.99) and moderate overweight (BMI 25.0-29.99). Obese subjects (BMI 30+) were not included in this study. Bone mass of the whole body as well as bone density of the hip joint were determined by Dual-energy-X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) using a hologic 2000 scanner. As expected BMC and BMD values were significantly higher in males than in females. While in both females and males moderately overweight BMD of the hip was significantly higher than in those with normal BMI, statistically significant differences of BMC were restricted to females only. Such positive association between body weight and BMC and BMD is in agreement with previous studies on mature subjects, and menopausal and postmenopausal women in particular. In addition, this study demonstrates corresponding positive associations between moderate overweight and bone mass and -density in the elderly and old aged. 相似文献
