ABSTRACT Bone strength is predominantly determined by bone density, but microarchitecture also plays an important role. We examined whether trabecular score (TBS) predicts the risk of vertebral fractures in a Japanese female cohort. Of 1950 randomly selected women aged 15 to 79 years, we analyzed data from 665 50 years and older, who completed baseline study at least one follow-up survey over 10 had no conditions affecting metabolism. Each included spinal imaging dual-energy X-ray...
Objectives We aimed to assess the correlation between muscle strength and mass based on sex age, their association with walking speed, which is a health predictor for independent living, in elderly Japanese individuals. Methods The participants included 318 (111 men, 207 women) community-dwelling individuals aged ≥65 years. Knee extension was assessed as an indicator of strength, bioelectrical impedance analysis used measure mass. maximum speed recorded. All measurements were categorized age...
There is limited knowledge about early-onset dementia (EOD) on fracture risk.
Oral bacteria have been reported to be associated with the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis; however, relationship between oral microbiota and atherosclerosis remains unclear. The present study aimed investigate whether or not salivary patients atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ACVD) differs from that subjects without ACVD, characterize ACVD.
