Dual Energy Xray Absorptiometry (DEXA) is used to determine bone mineral density and the risk of osteoporosis. Which of the follow statements regarding DEXA is true? a T-score of -4.0 indicates healthy bone mineral density with no risk of fracture during a fall Osteoporotic bone develops in both trabecular and cortical bone The very high levels of radiation used in a DEXA scan make this is a dangerous procedure One of the most common sites to perform a DEXA scan is in the hip area Two of the above statements are true

This drug binds sclerostin, a regulatory factor in bone metabolism. Sclerostin inhibition increases bone formation and, to a lesser extent, decreases bone resorption. It is indicated for osteoporosis treatment in postmenopausal women at high risk for fracture, defined as a history of osteoporotic fracture or multiple risk factors for fracture. It is also indicated for patients who have failed or are intolerant to other available osteoporosis therapy. What is the name of the drug

Select all of the sentences below that correctly describe the role of minerals in healthy bone tissue and osteoporosis risk. Select all that apply. View Available Hint(s)for Part C Select all of the sentences below that correctly describe the role of minerals in healthy bone tissue and osteoporosis risk. Select all that apply. A)Sufficient intakes of magnesium and potassium are associated with increased bone health. B)Regular consumption of calcium during childhood and adolescence is related to lower bone mineral density in older adults. C)The most effective way to prevent loss of bone mass and elasticity is to maintain a high bone mineral density. D)Dramatic weight loss results in less stress placed on the bones, thereby improving bone mineral density. E)Weight-bearing exercise can help prevent osteoporosis and reduce the risk of falls and fractures.

A 58-year-old postmenopausal woman was sent for dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry to evaluate the bone mineral density of her lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total hip. The test results revealed significantly low bone mineral density in all sites. Chronic use of which of the following medications is most likely to have contributed to this woman's osteoporosis? a. Lovastatin b. Metformin С. Prednisone d. Propranolol е. Thiazide diuretic

What are the requirements of bone grafts that are being used for tissue engineering applications? Describe briefly bone grafts that are already applied in the clinic. Imagine that you are not seeding cells on the bone graft prior to implantation, you are demanding cell migration from neighborhood tissues via blood. In this regard, what are the required characteristics of bone grafts to support bone regeneration and vascularization?
