概括
极度早产 (EP) 或极低出生体重 (ELBW) 的年轻人显示骨强度降低,增加长期骨折风险,特别是在男性中. 对EP/ELBW幸存者的骨健康评估对于早期干预至关重要.
科学领域:
- 骨健康研究 骨健康研究
- 过早分娩的结果
- 成人的骨发育成长
背景情况:
- 自20世纪90年代以来,极其早产 (EP;<28周怀孕) 或极低出生体重 (ELBW;<1000g) 的成年人的长期骨健康状况尚不清楚.
- 基于外围定量计算断层扫描 (pQCT) 的有限元素建模 (pQCT-FEM) 是评估骨脆弱性的验证技术.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究骨结构和估计出生于EP/ELBW的年轻成年人的骨强度.
- 为了比较EP/ELBW幸存者和25岁末期出生对照者之间的骨参数.
主要方法:
- 一项队列研究涉及161名EP/ELBW幸存者和122名出生后的对照者 (出生于1991-1992).
- 在长度的4%和66%的骨和半径的pQCT分析,使用pQCT-FEM进行刚度计算 (压缩,扭曲,曲).
- 对身高和体重进行调整的线性回归,以性别作为交互术语来评估群体差异.
主要成果:
- 与对照组相比,EP/ELBW幸存者较矮,但体重相似.
- 在EP/ELBW幸存者中,高度和重量调整后的扭曲刚度在骨的66%显著较低 (-180Nm/deg).
- 骨扭曲和曲刚性的群体差异在男性中比女性更明显,在辐射骨参数上没有显著差异.
结论:
- 在EP/ELBW幸存者中,更低的调整骨强度指标表明预测的长期骨折风险的临床相关增加,特别是在男性中.
- 推在未来的pQCT-FEM研究中采用部pQCT图像,因为在辐射测量中观察到的变异性更大.
- 研究结果强调需要在成年后继续监测EP/ELBW人群的骨健康状况.

Bone Disorders

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...

Changes in the Appendicular Skeleton with Age

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...
