概括
与对照组相比,患有人类免疫缺陷病毒 (MLWH) 的中年男性的关节骨密度和骨缺陷明显较低. 较低的CD4计数和蛋白酶抑制剂治疗方案与MLWH的骨密度降低有关.
科学领域:

- 有限的数据存在于MLWH的特定关节骨缺陷 (皮质和椎),对于了解骨强度至关重要.
- 人类免疫缺陷病毒 (HIV) 感染及其治疗方法可能会影响骨健康.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较MLWH和健康对照之间的关节骨密度和结构参数.
- 研究MLWH中抗逆转录病毒疗法 (ART) 方案,CD4计数和骨健康之间的关联.
- 在MLWH中确定皮质和椎骨缺陷的特定区域.
主要方法:
- 对83个MLWH和166个年龄和BMI匹配的对照进行了定量CT扫描.
- 分析了体体积骨矿物质密度 (vBMD) 和皮质骨映射参数 (皮质厚度 [CTh],皮质骨vBMD [CBMD],皮质质质表面密度 [CMSD],内皮层状骨密度 [ECTD]).
- 经过调整以共同变量为准的统计分析,包括年龄,BMI,吸烟,饮酒,HCV同时感染,诺菲尔暴露和CT扫描仪类型.
主要成果:
- 与对照组相比,MLWH的总部vBMD,CMSD和ECTD显著降低,即使在对同变量进行调整后.
- 皮层骨映射显示,MLWH的前侧三部区域和股骨部部位的CTh,CBMD和CMSD有局部缺陷.
- 较低的CD4 T细胞计数和基于蛋白酶抑制剂 (PI) 的ART治疗方案在ART开始时独立地与MLWH中较低的总部vBMD和CMSD有关.
结论:
- 与社区居住的对照人群相比,MLWH的部骨密度降低,其特点是皮层和椎骨缺陷.
- 部的特定区域,包括大腿部,在MLWH中显示局部骨结构异常.
- 较低的CD4 T细胞计数和基于PI的ART疗法是MLWH骨密度较低的重要因素,突出了潜在的干预目标.

Bone Disorders
3.7K
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...

Pulmonary Tuberculosis I
286
Tuberculosis, often called TB, is a contagious illness primarily caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It mainly affects the lung parenchyma but can also impact other body parts.
Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.
Mode of...

Changes in the Appendicular Skeleton with Age
2.1K
The upper and lower limb initially develops as a small bulge called a limb bud, which appears on the lateral side of the early embryo. The upper limb bud appears near the end of the fourth week of development, with the lower limb bud appearing shortly after.
Initially, the limb buds consist of a core of mesenchyme covered by a layer of ectoderm. The ectoderm at the end of the limb bud thickens to form a narrow crest called the apical ectodermal ridge. This ridge stimulates the underlying...

Hormones and Bone Tissue
2.8K
The endocrine system produces and secretes hormones, which interact with the skeletal system. These hormones control bone growth, maintain bone once it is formed, and remodel it.
Hormones That Influence Osteoblasts and/or Maintain the Matrix
Several hormones are necessary for controlling bone growth and maintaining the bone matrix. The pituitary gland secretes growth hormone (GH), which, as its name implies, controls bone growth. This happens in several ways: first, it triggers chondrocyte...

The Effect of Aging on Tissues
2.2K
Several body functions deteriorate with age. The external signs of aging are easily identifiable. For example, the skin becomes dry, less elastic, and thins out, forming wrinkles. The skin of the face begins to appear looser due to a decrease in the levels of elastic and collagen fibers in the connective tissue. Additionally, melanin production in the hair follicle decreases with age, resulting in gray hair. Moreover, the senses of sight and hearing decline, so glasses and hearing aids may...

Compact Bone

Most bones contain compact and spongy osseous tissue, but their distribution and concentration vary based on the bone's overall function.
Compact bone, also called cortical bone, is the denser, stronger of the two types of bone tissue. It is found under the periosteum and in the diaphyses of long bones, where it provides support and protection. The microscopic structural unit of compact bone is called an osteon, or haversian system. Each osteon is composed of concentric rings of calcified...
