Risk of wrist fracture, estimated by the load-to-strength ratio, declines following sleeve gastrectomy in adolescents and young adults.

Mitchell, Deborah M, Vibha Singhal, Supritha Nimmala, Meghan Lauze, Mary L Bouxsein, Madhusmita Misra, and Miriam A Bredella. 2024. “Risk of Wrist Fracture, Estimated by the Load-to-Strength Ratio, Declines Following Sleeve Gastrectomy in Adolescents and Young Adults.”. Osteoporosis International : A Journal Established As Result of Cooperation Between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA 35 (2): 285-91.

Long-duration type 1 diabetes is associated with deficient cortical bone mechanical behavior and altered matrix composition in human femoral bone.

Emerzian, Shannon R, Jarred Chow, Ramina Behzad, Mustafa Unal, Daniel J Brooks, I-Hsien Wu, John Gauthier, et al. 2024. “Long-Duration Type 1 Diabetes Is Associated With Deficient Cortical Bone Mechanical Behavior and Altered Matrix Composition in Human Femoral Bone.”.

Micro-computed Tomography (uCT)

Micro-computed tomography (microCT) is an imaging technique that uses x-rays to produce cross-sectional images of an object that can be reconstructed to create a three-dimensional model. It allows for non-destructive quantitative analysis of the density, geometry and microarchitecture of mineralized...

Reference Point Indentation (RPI)

As part of our assessment of tissue properties, we perform microindentation using a BioDent tester, which is a novel reference point indentation device developed by ActiveLife Scientific. Reference Point Indentation enables assessment of bone material properties without requiring special surface...

Advanced imaging techniques for assessing skeletal fragility

Osteoporosis remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. Current clinical standards have low sensitivity because half of all fracturesoccur in individuals without osteoporosis based on bone density testing and/or with few clinical risk factors. Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) is an emerging...

Associations of Muscle Strength and Functional Power with Longitudinal Change in HR-pQCT Bone Parameters: The Osteoporotic Fractures in Men (MrOS) Study.

Heilmann, Nina Z, Kerri S Freeland, Tong Yu, Paolo Caserotti, Andrew J Burghardt, Mary Winger Knueven, Bradley C Nindl, et al. 2025. “Associations of Muscle Strength and Functional Power With Longitudinal Change in HR-PQCT Bone Parameters: The Osteoporotic Fractures in Men (MrOS) Study.”.
