Association between birth conditions and bone mineral density in adults from the 1982 and 1993 birth cohorts in Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil
This study assessed the association of birth weight, gestational age, and intrauterine growth with bone mineral density (BMD) at 22 and 30 years of age in the 1982 and 1993 birth cohorts in Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and the association was assessed using analysis of variance. Multiple linear regression was used to control for confounding factors: sex; household income at birth; maternal smoking during pregnancy; maternal schooling; maternal ethnicity/skin color; and pre-pregnancy body mass index. The study tested whether body fat in adulthood was a ...

Images in sports medicine: bone stress injury
History A female collegiate pole vaulter competing at the national level presented with constant pain in her non-dominant right lower leg. Initially, the assessing physician informed her that there were no signs of fracture or bone stress injury on the plain radiograph and told her to come back for an MRI if the pain in her non-take-off leg persisted. She continued to train without any improvement in symptoms. Relevant medical history included menstrual cycles that were regular, no indications of relative energy deficiency in sport (REDs),1 no history of injuries including bone stress injuries and a recent dual X-ray absor...

External validation of a deep learning model for predicting bone mineral density on chest radiographs
ConclusionOur model, which was externally validated using data obtained at facilities other than the development environment, predicted BMD of femoral neck on chest radiographs. The model performed well and showed potential for clinical use. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Design and Rationale of Prolonged Nightly Fasting for Multiple Myeloma Prevention (PROFAST): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial
CONCLUSIONS: PROFAST serves as an important first step in exploring the premise that prolonged nightly fasting is a strategy to control obesity and obesity-related mechanisms of myelomagenesis. In evaluating the feasibility and impact of prolonged nightly fasting on body composition, bone marrow adipose tissue, and biomarkers of tumor burden, this pilot study may generate hypotheses regarding metabolic mechanisms underlying MM development and ultimately inform clinical and public health strategies for MM prevention.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05565638; http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05565638.INTERNATIO...

Management of cancer treatment-induced bone loss in patients with breast and hormone sensitive prostate cancer: AIOM survey
CONCLUSION: A heterogeneous approach on the management of cancer treatment-induced bone loss in Italy arises from this survey. This scenario highlights the need for a major consensus of the Italian scientific community on the diagnostic and therapeutic approach of cancer treatment-induced bone loss and for a greater awareness of this topic among Italian oncologists.PMID:38462772 | DOI:10.1177/03008916241236279 (Source: Tumori)

A novel approach to evaluation of lumbar bone density using Hounsfield units in volume of interest on computed tomography imaging
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study to introduce a novel approach using the HU value in the VOI to assess bone health at the lumbar spine. There is a strong correlation between the HU value in the VOI and BMD, and the HU value in the VOI can be used to predict osteoporosis.PMID:38457796 | DOI:10.3171/2024.1.SPINE231137 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery.Spine)

Becoming a World Champion Powerlifter at 71 Years of Age: It Is Never Too Late to Start Exercising
In conclusion, even for resistance exercise naïve individuals, starting exercise at an advanced age can lead to improvements in body composition and muscle strength allowing older adults to reduce the risk for developing metabolic syndrome, live independently, and even compete at a world class level.PMID:38458181 | DOI:10.1123/ijsnem.2023-0230 (Source: International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism)
