The bone mineral content of the second phalanx of the second digit was studied by quantitative microdensitometry. It is concluded that age-dependent loss of bone is a generalised phenomenon in men and women that occurs at different rates at different ages. In women, an accelerated rate of bone loss
Population based studies have demonstrated that having a first degree relative with a hip fracture is predictive of future hip fractures. Postmenopausal bone mineral density (BMD), ultrasound of calcaneus and hip axis length are associated with hip fracture, with the association for ultrasound and h
## Abstract Bone adapts to mechanical loads applied on it. During aging, loads decrease to a greater extent at those skeletal sites where loads increase most in earlier life. Thus, the loss of bone may occur preferentially at sites where most bone has been deposited previously; ie, bone loss could
## Objective: To evaluate the impact of a 2-year program of strength training on muscle strength, bone mineral density (bmd), physical function, joint damage, and disease activity in patients with recent-onset (<2 years) rheumatoid arthritis (ra). ## Methods: In this prospective trial, 70 ra pati
