Cortical Bone Mineral Density

The objective was to study the independent relationships of body mass index and endogenous estradiol to cortical bone mineral density and the rate of cortical bone loss at the radius in healthy early postmenopausal women. Fifty-one healthy early postmenopausal women (aged 58–66 years) participated. The women were a subset of a population participating in a 10-year longitudinal study to elucidate the influence of dietary calcium on the rate of cortical bone loss. Cortical bone mineral density at the radius, body weight and body height were measured annually (1979–89). Concentrations of sex steroids were measured in serum samples collected during the last year of follow-up (1989). Endogenous estradiol levels, although significantly positively correlated with body mass index, were not independently related to bone mass indices of the radius. Body mass index, on the other hand, was found to be positively related to cortical bone mineral density and negatively to the rate of bone loss, even after adjustments had been made for confounding factors. Our results suggest that the level of total estradiol is not an important determinant of cortical bone mass indices in healthy early postmenopausal women. Other factors of overweight such as mechanical loading may be important.

Menopause is commonly associated with rapid bone loss and this bone loss manifests as a significant decrease in bone mineral density (BMD). Body weight or body mass index is the most important factor which influences BMD. Aim of this study was to evaluate the association between BMI and BMD in post menopausal women. Also to measure the correlation between age, duration of menopause, weight with BMD. This cross-sectional study was undertaken in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology in Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka from January, 2012 to December, 2012. The study included women of 50 to 70 years who had menopause with three or more parity. Total 100 women were evaluated by history taking, physical examination and laboratory investigation (BMD).The results showed that there was significant positive correlation between BMI and BMD value of L1-4 and total femur (Pearson‘s coefficient was +0.285, P<0.01 and +.350, P<.001). There was also significant positive correlation between weight and T- score of L1-4 (r =+ .482, P<.01) and Total femur (r = +.513, P< .01). In addition, significant negative correlation was found between BMD with age and duration of menopause. It can be concluded that in postmenopausal women as the BMI decreases bone mineral density also decreases. So, adequate weight and BMI necessary for the prevention of osteoporosis.

Abstract Background: The intake of citrulline (CIT) and leucine (LEU) can stimulate protein synthesis. However, the efficacy of the combined intervention of CIT and LEU intake with exercise on body composition and physical activity (PA) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the combined effect of CIT and LEU intake and weight-bearing exercises (WBE) and square stepping exercise (SSE) for 20 weeks on body composition, PA, and amino acid concentration in older women with low body mass index (BMI) (16 to 21 kg/m 2 ). Methods: A total of 23 participants practiced WBE and SSE once a week for 75 minutes and were administered supplement (Ex + CIT·LEU group: CIT 0.8 g and LEU 1.6 g; Ex + Placebo group: 3.5 g carbohydrate) twice a day for 20 weeks. Body composition was measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. PA, including leisure-time, household, and occupational PA, was assessed using the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly. Amino acid concentrations in the blood were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography.Results: Significant interactions were observed in the body weight, BMI, lean mass, body mass, household and total PA, tyrosine, and phenylalanine. The within-group analysis showed that tyrosine of post-intervention measurement (Post) significantly in both groups ( p < 0.05). Body weight, BMI, lean mass, body mass, household PA, total PA, and phenylalanine of Post increased significantly in the Ex + CIT·LEU group ( p < 0.05). Additionally, significant positive correlations were observed between the intake rate of supplements and bone mass ( r = 0.80) and between the practice rate of WBE at home and bone mineral density ( r = 0.66) in the Ex + CIT·LEU group. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that the intake of CIT and LEU, with the practice of WBE and SSE, could improve body weight, muscle mass, bone mass, and PA in older women with low BMI, which may prevent sarcopenia and frailty.Trial registration: UMIN000022385.
