High plantar foot pressures in association with peripheral neuropathy have been ascertained to be important risk factors for ulceration the diabetic foot. Most studies investigating these parameters limited by their size and homogeneity of study subjects. The objective this was therefore ascertain associated high a large diverse population.We studied cross-sectional group 251 patients Caucasian (group C) (n=121), black B) (n=36), Hispanic H) (n=94) racial origins an overall age 58.5+/-12.5...
A research team with backgrounds in occupational therapy, rehabilitation, policy and rulemaking, prevention programs affecting health safety designed, validated, analyzed an ergonomics survey of university staff faculty. The purpose the study was to validate identified risk factors from literature contributing work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMDs) office setting within a setting. also designed determine differences between faculty their exposure physical WRMDs. results suggest have...
Two large apparently unrelated African American families with a high incidence of breast cancer and other tumors characteristic Li-Fraumeni sarcoma family syndrome were studied. Mutation screening revealed that in both the affected members carried germline mutation TP53 gene at codon 133 (ATG→ ACG, M133T). In order to determine whether an ancestral haplotype was shared by these two families, polymorphic markers within flanking Haplotype analysis using five identical families. Loss...
This study compared femoral bone sites between two racial groups of similarly aged postmenopausal women. One hundred twenty nine black women(age=61.0±12.7 yrs) and 130 white women (age=62.7±8.4 volunteered for this study. Height weight were obtained a questionnaire was given orally to assess activity, gynecological, medical, nutritional histories. Bone measurements (Bone Mineral Content, BMC: Area, BA: Density, BMD) at 5 sites(Femoral Neck, FN; Trochanter, T; Inter IT; Ward's Triangle, WT;...
This study compared radial and spinal bone sites between two racial groups of similarly aged postmenopausal women. One hundred twenty nine black women(age=61.0±12.7 yrs) 130 white women (age=62.7±8.4 volunteered for this study. Height weight were obtained on Detecto Scales. Bone measurements (Bone Mineral Content, BMC; Area, BA; Density, BMD) at 3 the mean Anterior/Posterior Lumbar2-4 (L2-4) with Hologic QDR 2000 Densitometer. Significant (p<.05) “t” tests results revealed: 1) subjects (Ss)...
We compared lumbar and femoral bone density in 129 black (M age=61.0 +/- 12.7 yrs) 130 white age 62.7 8.4 postmenopausal women volunteers. A total of 44/129 (34%) Ss 84/130 (65%) were currently taking hormone replacement therapy (HRT) as prescribed by their personal physicians. Standing height body weight obtained on Detecto scales. measured the tissue with a Hologic QDR-2000 densitometer, for L2-L4 spine (SP), femur(HIP) sites, adjusting years past menopause (YPM: mass index(BMI:...
This study compared anthropometric measurements between two racial groups of similarly aged postmenopausal women. One hundred twenty nine black women(age=61.0±12.7 yrs) and 130 white women (age=62.7±8.4 volunteered for this study. Standing sitting heights, body weight, 4 skinfolds, girths were obtained on both groups. Body Mass Index [BMI wt (kg)/ht (m2)] Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR) also calculated. Skinfolds (tricep. Tr; chest, Ch; midaxillary, Ma; abdomen, Ab) measured serially with Harpend...
This study compared lean, fat, and bone tissue masses between two racial groups of similarly aged postmenopausal women. One hundred twenty nine black women (M age=61.0±12.7 yrs) 130 white age=62.7±8.4 volunteered for this study. Standing height body weight were obtained on Detecto scales. Measurement the three tissues was made with an Hologic QDR 2000 Bone Densitometer. Tissue assessments subdivided into 6 segments combined total body. Significant (p<.05)“t” tests, used to determine...
