Mashup Score: 0
Men with high levels of body fat have lower bone density and may be more likely to break a bone than those with normal levels of body fat, according to a new study published in the Endocrine Society’s Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. Most studies have shown positive or neutral effects of body fat mass…

Mashup Score: 3Blog: Osteoporosis Facts and Fractures - 3 year(s) ago
Osteoporosis, or porous bone, is a disease characterized by low bone mass and structural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and an increased risk of fractures of the hip, spine, and wrist. Men as well as women are affected by osteoporosis, a disease that can be prevented and treated. Get the facts about causes, prevention, fractures and bone density testing.

Mashup Score: 1Assessing the Relationship Between Bone Density and Loss of Reduction in Nonsurgical Distal Radius Fracture Treatment - 3 year(s) ago
Whether low bone mineral density affects loss of reduction for distal radius fractures (DRFs) managed without surgery is unknown. Our purpose was to understand how bone mineral density, based on second metacarpal cortical percentage (2MCP) measurement, affects DRF healing after nonsurgical treatment.
