Bone Disorders01:29

Bone Disorders

4.8K
Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Essential Minerals for Bone Health01:31

Essential Minerals for Bone Health

5.4K
The minerals contained in all of the food we consume are essential for our organ systems. However, certain essential minerals, such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, manganese, and fluoride, largely affect bone health.
Calcium and Phosphorus
Calcium is a critical component of bones, especially in the form of calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate. Since the body cannot make calcium, it must be obtained from the diet. However, calcium cannot be absorbed from the small intestine without...

Pharmacokinetics in Pediatric Patients: Overview and Drug Absorption

102
Understanding the physiological differences in the pediatric population is crucial for effective pharmacotherapy. Neonates, infants, and children exhibit significant variations in gastric pH, gastric emptying time, intestinal transit time, and biliary function. These variations profoundly affect oral drug absorption, necessitating a nuanced approach to pediatric dosing.Neonates present with a unique physiological profile, having a gastric pH greater than 4 and faster and more irregular gastric...

Role of Vitamins in Maintaining Bone Health01:25

Role of Vitamins in Maintaining Bone Health

4.5K
The growth and maintenance of bone are regulated by a combination of nutritional factors, including vitamins, such as vitamin A, B12, C, D, and K.
Vitamin A
Vitamin A is involved in the process of bone remodeling. Retinoic acid, the active metabolite of Vitamin A, has nuclear receptors in osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which are involved in bone remodeling.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 acts as a cofactor during the formation of osteoblast-related proteins, such as osteocalcin. Vitamin B12 plays a role...

Pharmacokinetics in Pediatric Patients: Drug Distribution

122
Drug distribution in the pediatric population exhibits unique challenges and considerations due to the physiological differences between children, particularly neonates and infants, and adults. A crucial aspect of pediatric pharmacology is understanding how these differences impact the pharmacokinetics of various drugs, necessitating age-specific dosing strategies to ensure efficacy and safety.Neonates and infants have a higher total body water content, ~75%–90% of their body weight,...

Chronic Kidney Disease III: Interprofessional Care

202
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) requires collaborative and comprehensive management. CKD progresses through stages and can lead to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) if untreated. Interprofessional collaboration and patient education are crucial, enabling patients to manage their health and improve their quality of life.Diagnostic approach for chronic kidney diseaseThe diagnosis of CKD primarily focuses on the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which assesses kidney function by measuring how well...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Nutrition
  • Bone Health
  • Dietary Science

Background:

  • Most research on dietary patterns (DPs) and bone health is from adult studies.
  • Childhood bone development is crucial for lifelong skeletal integrity.
  • Understanding DPs' role in pediatric bone is essential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the influence of dietary patterns (DPs) on bone strength in children.
  • To synthesize current evidence on DPs and pediatric bone health.

Main Methods:

  • Review of cross-sectional studies on DPs and pediatric bone.
  • Analysis of both 'a posteriori' and 'a priori' dietary pattern approaches.
  • Synthesis of findings regarding fruit and vegetable intake.

Main Results:

  • Dietary patterns characterized by high fruit and vegetable intake show positive associations with pediatric bone.
  • Both 'a posteriori' and 'a priori' DPs approaches suggest benefits from fruit- and vegetable-rich diets.
  • Evidence indicates a potential positive impact of specific DPs on children's bone health.

Conclusions:

  • Dietary patterns rich in fruits and vegetables may be beneficial for pediatric bone strength.
  • Further research, including 'a priori' DPs interventions, is needed.
  • Establishing healthy DPs in childhood is key for long-term bone health.
