- 目前的骨质疏松症监测依赖于骨矿物密度 (aBMD),该密度对骨质量变化的敏感性有限.
- 现有的骨折风险工具主要使用临床因素,对纵向骨变化敏感性较低.
- 这项研究研究了微架构骨折风险评估计算器 (FRAC),用于检测与骨质相关的骨折风险变化.
研究的目的:
- 评估FRAC工具在检测骨折风险纵向变化的灵敏度.
- 评估FRAC能够反映骨质随时间变化的能力.
- 使用FRAC.探索骨折风险的特定年龄和性别趋势.
主要方法:
- 在一项纵向人口研究中利用了601名参与者的数据.
- 在两个时间点 (3-10年间隔) 获得了半径和骨的高分辨率外围定量计算断层扫描 (HR-pQCT) 扫描.
- 计算了使用FRAC在两次访问和基于骨强度变化分析的变化中的五年重大骨质疏松性骨折 (MOF) 风险.
主要成果:
- 在FRAC风险中最大的年化变化观察到的是具有最大骨强度差异的个体 (SRM = 0.73-0.78).
- 在骨强度变化最小的个体 (SRM = 0.07-0.21) 中,FRAC风险的最小变化被观察到.
- 特定于年龄和性别的趋势显示,更年期女性 (40-60岁) 和老年人 (70岁以上) 的骨折风险变化增加.
结论:
- 在老年人中,FRAC对骨折风险变化的敏感性被骨质质量下降所驱动.

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...

Fractures: Bone Repair
3.7K
Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...

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...
