There are multiple studies in different countries regarding the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency. These showed high deficiency Asian countries. This study tries to elucidate and its influencing factors population Tehran.1210 subjects 20-64 years old were randomly selected. 25 (OH) serum levels measured. Duration exposure sunlight, type clothing level calcium intake BMI quantified based on a questionnaire.A percentage was defined population. Prevalence severe, moderate mild Vitamin 9.5%,...
Non-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia (NICTH) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by the secretion of high molecular weight insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) from tumors, particularly those mesenchymal and epithelial origin. This case report describes 71-year-old male with pelvic sarcoma who presented severe hypoglycemia, blood glucose levels dropping below 40 mg/dL exhibiting neuroglycopenic symptoms. The diagnosis NICTH was confirmed through biochemical analysis showing...
Musculoskeletal disorders and cognitive diseases are prevalent, they significant determinants of morbidity mortality in older adults. The aim this study is to investigate the prevalence musculoskeletal their risk factors also assess associations during future follow-ups.Bushehr Elderly Health (BEH) programme a population-based prospective cohort being conducted Bushehr, southern province Iran. A total 3000 people aged ≥60 years participated first stage from which 2772 were eligible...
BACKGROUND: Diagnostic discordance for osteoporosis is the observation that T-score of an individual patient varies from one key measurement site to another, falling into two different diagnostic categories identified by World Health Organization (WHO) classification system. This study was conducted evaluate presence and risk factors this phenomenon in a large sample Iranian population. METHODS: Demographic data, anthropometric measurements, were derived database on 4229 patients referred...
Osteoporosis is a major problem and hidden epidemic disease in the world. Early diagnosis by measurement of Bone Mineral Density (BMD) treatment can prevent reduce complications, especially fractures. As there no comprehensive study Iran, this designed to assess BMD discrepancy 20-69 yr Tehran population as well prevalence osteoporosis osteopenia.553 people (34% men, 66%women) from 50 Blocks randomly selected. The assessment spine femur region performed through DXA method. All subjects...

Sacopenia is a common problem in elderly with the adverse outcomes. The objective of this study was to estimate peak appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) and age its attainment by sex among Iranian population.A total 691 men women aged 18-94 years participated cross-sectional, population-based Bushehr, Iran. ASM measured dual X-ray absorptiometry. Cutoff points for were established considering two standard deviations (SDs) below mean values index (SMI) young reference groups. relationship...
