Background. The objective of this quasi-experimental study was to determine whether bolus vitamin D supplementation taken either regularly over the preceding year or after diagnosis COVID-19 effective in improving survival among hospitalized frail elderly patients. Methods. Seventy-seven patients consecutively for a geriatric unit were included. Intervention groups participants supplemented with (Group 1), and those 2). comparator group involved having received no supplements 3). Outcomes...

Some studies have indicated that the risk of fragility fractures in men increases as bone mineral levels decrease, but there is an overlap density (BMD) measurements between patients with or without fractures. Furthermore, it has been suggested biomechanical competence trabecular dependent not only on absolute amount present also microarchitecture. In study, 108 (mean age 52.1 years) lumbar osteopenia (T score < -2.5) were recruited to examine relationships BMD, architectural changes bone,...

Prolonged corticosteroid (CS) therapy induces osteoporosis and fractures. Osteoporosis is characterized at the histomorphometric level by reduced bone volume (BV/TV) disruption of three-dimensional (3D) trabecular architecture. Several stereological methods have been proposed to characterize these alterations: measurements thickness number, star volumes, interconnectivity index (ICI) marrow spaces, pattern factor (TBP(f)). These were computerized with a single program running on an image...

Abstract Morphometric analysis of 70 bone biopsies was done in parallel by μCT and histomorphometry. provided higher results for trabecular thickness separation because the 3D shape these anatomical objects. Introduction: Bone histomorphometry is used to explore various metabolic diseases. The technique on microscopic 2D sections, several methods have been proposed extrapolate measurements dimension. X-ray a recently developed imaging tool appreciate architecture. Recently use...

Osteoporosis is defined as a disease characterized by low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of trabecular leading to enhanced fragility. Various histomorphometric methods have been described measure architecture on histological sections. However, not all the are strictly equivalent some them appear able detect differences earlier in course disease. We compared 8 known characterize 154 male osteoporotic patients. Measurements were done transiliac biopsies: Trabecular number,...

Abstract Trabecular bone has been reported as having two‐dimensional (2‐D) fractal characteristics at the histological level, a finding correlated with biomechanical properties. However, several dimensions ( D ) are known and computational ways to obtain them vary considerably. This study compared three algorithms on same series of biopsies, Kolmogorov, Minkowski–Bouligand, mass‐radius dimensions. The relationships histomorphometric descriptors 2‐D trabecular architecture were investigated....

In chronic kidney disease and dialysis patients, vitamin D deficiency is associated with mortality. some observational studies, calcitriol analogue therapy was a better survival rate in hemodialysis (HD) patients.

A 42-month applied according...
