Osteoporosis is defined as a generalized skeletal disorder characterized by compromised
bone strength predisposing to an increased risk of fractures. Bone strength denotes the …

Abstract Purpose of Review Statistical models of shape and appearance have increased
their popularity since the 1990s and are today highly prevalent in the field of medical image …

Romosozumab treatment in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis increases bone
formation while decreasing bone resorption, resulting in large BMD gains to reduce fracture …

Background Most obese women with low-trauma fractures present normal areal bone
mineral density (aBMD), suggesting that other bone parameters are more determinant for …

Aim Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) have more risk of bone fractures. However, areal
bone mineral density (aBMD) by conventional dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is not …

Background: Insulin may play a key role in bone metabolism, where the anabolic effect
predominates. This study aims to analyze the relationship between insulin resistance and …

Since its introduction in 1987, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has revolutionized
bone assessment, becoming the gold standard for measuring bone mineral density (BMD) …

Bariatric surgery induces a decrease in areal bone mineral density (aBMD), but the long-
term effect on trabecular and cortical volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) has not been …

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients had a higher risk of develo** low bone mineral density
(BMD) or osteoporosis. RA patients on classic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (c …

We evaluated the impact of bariatric surgery on bone mineral density (BMD) and
microarchitecture over one year using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), the …
