  1. 31. Bone in coeliac disease

    Författare :Trausti Valdimarsson; Pekka Collin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Bone mineral density; coeliac disease; gluten-free diet; parathyroid hormone; insulin-like growth factor; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with untreated and treated coeliac disease were examined regarding bone mineral density (BMD) and biochemical factors of importance for bone metabolism. The occurrence of disturbances and their correction during treatment with a gluten-free diet were studied. LÄS MER

    Författare :Johanna Schmidt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; body composition; bone mineral density; cardiovascular disease; fracture; gene expression; menopause; mortality; ovary; polycystic ovary syndrome; reproductive hormones;

    Sammanfattning : Polycystic ovary syndrome Ovarian pathophysiology and consequences after the menopause Johanna Schmidt Institute of Clinical Sciences at Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden, 2011 The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder affecting ~10% of women. It is characterized by oligo/anovulation, hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovaries. LÄS MER

  3. 33. Physical Activity, Bone Mass and Bone Structure in Pre-pubertal Children

    Författare :Gayani Alwis; Ortopedi - klinisk och molekylär osteoporosforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bone size; BMD; BMC; hip structure analysis; DXA; boys; Physical activity; girls; acclerometers; school transportation;

    Sammanfattning : Low bone mineral density (BMD) is a risk factor for fractures and much of the fracture preventive effort today is devoted to preventing low BMD. Physical activity (PA) has been described as one of the best strategies to optimize skeletal development in the growing child. LÄS MER

  4. 34. Bone turnover markers and prediction of bone loss in elderly women

    Författare :Janaka Lenora; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bone turnover markers; DXA; elderly; osteoporosis; scintigraphy; Bone mineral density; quantitative ultrasound of the calcaneus; bone loss;

    Sammanfattning : Around 70,000 osteoporosis-related fractures occur in Sweden annually and approximately half of the women in western world will sustain a fragility fracture after the age of 50 years. Fracture preventive efforts require the identification of individuals who are at high risk. LÄS MER

  5. 35. Bone and fat tissue in children and adolescents: studies with focus on osteocalcin

    Författare :Bojan Tubić; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; osteocalcin; obesity; adiponectin; carboxylation; anorexia nervosa; paediatric; bone turnover markers; bone mass; whole body vibration; muscle;

    Sammanfattning : The general AIM was to investigate the possible interplay between bone and fat tissue through clinical studies of children and adolescents. Osteocalcin (OC), a bone formation marker, has been proposed to act as a link between bone and energy metabolism in mice, but human data are inconclusive. LÄS MER
