Bone turnover in elderly men: relationships to change in bone mineral density (2007)

Nguyen, Tuan V, Meier, Christian, Center, Jacqueline R, Eisman, John A, Seibel, Markus J

Abstract Background It is not clear whether bone turnover markers can be used to make inference regarding changes in bone mineral density (BMD) in untreated healthy elderly men. The present study was...

β3-adrenergic receptor gene, body mass index, bone mineral density and fracture risk in elderly men and women: the Dubbo Osteoporosis Epidemiology Study (DOES) (2006)

Wang, Claire Y, Nguyen, Nguyen D, Morrison, Nigel A, Eisman, John A, Center, Jacqueline R, Nguyen, Tuan V

Abstract Background Recent studies have suggested that the Arg allele of β3-adrenergic receptor (ADRB3) gene is associated with body mass index (BMI), which is an important predictor of bone mineral...

Abdominal fat and hip fracture risk in the elderly: The Dubbo Osteoporosis Epidemiology Study (2005)

Nguyen, Nguyen D, Pongchaiyakul, Chatlert, Center, Jacqueline R, Eisman, John A, Nguyen, Tuan V

Abstract Background Fat mass, which is a major component of body weight, is directly related to bone mineral density and reduced fracture risk. It is not known whether abdominal fat is associated...

Risk Factors for Proximal Humerus, Forearm, and Wrist Fractures in Elderly Men and Women The Dubbo Osteoporosis Epidemiology Study (2001)

Nguyen, Tuan V., Center, Jacqueline R., Sambrook, Philip N., Eisman, John A.

Fractures of the proximal humerus, forearm, and wrist account for approximately one third of total osteoporotic fractures in the elderly. Several risk factors for these fractures were evaluated in...
