The goal of our study was to estimate the prevalence osteoporosis and low bone mass based on mineral density (BMD) at femoral neck lumbar spine in adults 50 years older United States (US). We applied estimates or (adjusted by age, sex, race/ethnicity 2010 Census) for noninstitutionalized population aged from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2010 US Census counts determine total number residents with mass. There were more than 99 million 2010. Based an overall 10.3%...
Data on the number of U.S. women with low femoral bone mineral density (BMD) are currently available only from indirect estimates. We used dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements BMD phase 1 third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III, 1988-1991) to estimate prevalences in ages 50 years older using an approach proposed recently by expert panel World Organization (WHO). Cutpoints for were derived data 194 non-Hispanic white (NHW) aged 20-29 NHANES III...
<h3>Objective.</h3> —To determine the prevalence of iron deficiency and anemia in US population. <h3>Design.</h3> —Nationally representative cross-sectional health examination survey that included venous blood measurements status. <h3>Main Outcome Measures.</h3> —lron deficiency, defined as having an abnormal value for at least 2 3 laboratory tests status (erythrocyte protoporphyrin, transferrin saturation, or serum ferritin); anemia, plus low hemoglobin. <h3>Participants.</h3> —A total 24...
Abstract Most estimates of osteoporosis in older U.S. adults have been based on its occurrence white women, even though it is known to affect men and minority women. In the present study, we used dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measurements femoral bone mineral density (BMD) from third National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III, 1988–1994) estimate overall scope disease population. Specifically, prevalences low BMD women 50 years explore different approaches for defining that...
Abstract Hip scans of U.S. adults aged 20–99 years acquired in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) were analyzed with a structural analysis program. The program analyzes narrow (3 mm wide) regions at specific locations across proximal femur to measure bone mineral density (BMD) as well cross-sectional areas (CSAs), moments inertia (CSMI), section moduli, subperiosteal widths, estimated mean cortical thickness....
BackgroundVitamin D has been hypothesized to reduce cancer mortality through its effects on incidence and/or survival. Epidemiologic studies of the association 25-hydroxyvitamin [25(OH)D] and risk cancer, however, have largely limited incident cancers at a few sites.
Abstract Hip fracture incidence appears to be declining in the United States, but changes bone mineral density (BMD) of population have not been evaluated. We used femur BMD data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005–2006 estimate prevalence low femoral adults age 50 years older compared it with estimates NHANES III (1988–1994). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry systems (pencil-beam geometry III, fan-beam 2005–2006) were measure BMD, World Organization (WHO)...
Recent studies have suggested an association between higher body iron stores and the risk of coronary heart disease. To assess these findings, we examined transferrin saturation disease, myocardial infarction, overall mortality, mortality from cardiovascular causes in a large population.
This prospective population-based study assessed predictors of hip fracture risk in white men. Participants were members the Epidemiologic Follow-up Study cohort First National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a nationally representative sample noninstitutionalized civilians who followed for maximum 22 years. A 2879 men (2249 nutrition weight-loss subsample, 1437 bone density subsample) aged 45-74 years at baseline (1971-1975) observed through 1992. Ninety-four percent original...
IT HAS BEEN a decade since the 1984 Consensus Development Conference on Osteoporosis first suggested that increased intake of calcium might help prevent osteoporosis. affects more than 25 million people in United States and is major underlying cause bone fractures postmenopausal women elderly. Previous surveys have revealed US population experiences 1.5 annually at cost excess $10 billion per year to health care system. Two important factors influence occurrence osteoporosis are optimal peak...
We used serum 25(OH)D data from NHANES III and incident hip fracture cases identified using linked mortality Medicare records, found that was significantly related to reduced risk in non-Hispanic white adults >or=65 yr of age.The role vitamin D status reducing is unclear. examined the relationship between 25 hydroxyvitamin [25(OH)D] older adults.The study sample consisted 1917 men women age who were third National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III, 1988-1994), a nationally...
