Background/Objectives: A significantly higher fracture risk characterizes Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients when compared to the non-diabetic population, even though their average bone mineral density (BMD) tends to be normal or high. This elevated risk is primarily driven by defective bone …

Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry (REMS) is a portable and radiation-free technology that can evaluate and monitor osteoporosis. In particular, REMS has been shown to measure bone mineral density (BMD) at axial skeletal bones with a precision, repeatability and accuracy not inferior to …

BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) in the lumbar spine can potentially lead to an overestimation of bone mineral density (BMD), and this can be a challenge in accurately diagnosing conditions like osteoporosis, where precise measurement of BMD is crucial. Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry (REMS) …

Osteoporosis is a frequently occurring skeletal disease, and osteoporosis-related fractures represent a significant burden for healthcare systems. Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) is the most commonly used method for assessing bone mineral density (BMD). Today, particular attention is being directed towards new technologies, …

Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with an increased risk of fracture, although bone mineral density (BMD) is unaltered or higher in diabetic patients, measured by Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). This paradox could be explained from compromise bone microarchitecture that …

PURPOSE: Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and increase risk of fragility fracture are common complication of anorexia nervosa (AN). BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) present several limits in subjects with AN. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of the new …

BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) and vertebral fractures at the lumbar spine lead to an overestimation of bone mineral density (BMD). Recently, a new approach for osteoporosis diagnosis, defined as radiofrequency echographic multi-spectrometry (REMS), represents an innovative diagnostic tool that seems to be able …

Background: Hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria are common in sarcoidosis and have been associated with active disease. No evidence is available on the specificity of these alterations among different interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). Aim of the study: We investigated the specificity of calcium metabolism …
