Bone Demineralization, Pathologic: Decrease, loss, or removal of the mineral constituents of bones. Temporary loss of bone mineral content is especially associated with space flight, weightlessness, and extended immobilization. OSTEOPOROSIS is permanent, includes reduction of total bone mass, and is associated with increased rate of fractures. CALCIFICATION, PHYSIOLOGIC is the process of bone remineralizing. (From Dorland, 27th ed; Stedman, 25th ed; Nicogossian, Space Physiology and Medicine, 2d ed, pp327-33)Bone Demineralization Technique: Removal of mineral constituents or salts from bone or bone tissue. Demineralization is used as a method of studying bone strength and bone chemistry.Tooth Demineralization: A tooth's loss of minerals, such as calcium in hydroxyapatite from the tooth matrix, caused by acidic exposure. An example of the occurrence of demineralization is in the formation of dental caries.Dental Enamel: A hard thin translucent layer of calcified substance which envelops and protects the dentin of the crown of the tooth. It is the hardest substance in the body and is almost entirely composed of calcium salts. Under the microscope, it is composed of thin rods (enamel prisms) held together by cementing substance, and surrounded by an enamel sheath. (From Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p286)Bone and Bones: A specialized CONNECTIVE TISSUE that is the main constituent of the SKELETON. The principle cellular component of bone is comprised of OSTEOBLASTS; OSTEOCYTES; and OSTEOCLASTS, while FIBRILLAR COLLAGENS and hydroxyapatite crystals form the BONE MATRIX.Tooth Remineralization: Therapeutic technique for replacement of minerals in partially decalcified teeth.Hardness Tests: A test to determine the relative hardness of a metal, mineral, or other material according to one of several scales, such as Brinell, Mohs, Rockwell, Vickers, or Shore.

(From Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992)Dental Caries: Localized destruction of the tooth surface initiated by decalcification of the enamel followed by enzymatic lysis of organic structures and leading to cavity formation. If left unchecked, the cavity may penetrate the enamel and dentin and reach the pulp.Dental Enamel Solubility: The susceptibility of the DENTAL ENAMEL to dissolution.Bone Remodeling: The continuous turnover of BONE MATRIX and mineral that involves first an increase in BONE RESORPTION (osteoclastic activity) and later, reactive BONE FORMATION (osteoblastic activity). The process of bone remodeling takes place in the adult skeleton at discrete foci. The process ensures the mechanical integrity of the skeleton throughout life and plays an important role in calcium HOMEOSTASIS. An imbalance in the regulation of bone remodeling's two contrasting events, bone resorption and bone formation, results in many of the metabolic bone diseases, such as OSTEOPOROSIS.Tooth Erosion: Progressive loss of the hard substance of a tooth by chemical processes that do not involve bacterial action. (Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p296)Weightlessness: Condition in which no acceleration, whether due to gravity or any other force, can be detected by an observer within a system.

Follistatin also binds and neutralizes many members of the TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR BETA family.Granuloma, Giant Cell: A non-neoplastic inflammatory lesion, usually of the jaw or gingiva, containing large, multinucleated cells. It includes reparative giant cell granuloma. Peripheral giant cell granuloma refers to the gingiva (giant cell epulis); central refers to the jaw.Rickets: Disorders caused by interruption of BONE MINERALIZATION manifesting as OSTEOMALACIA in adults and characteristic deformities in infancy and childhood due to disturbances in normal BONE FORMATION.

Bone mineral density of the proximal femur after unilateral cementless total hip replacement. (1/31)

It was the aim of this study to examine bone mineral density changes in the non-operated contralateral femur of patients undergoing total hip replacement. Bone density in the contralateral femur of 45 patients with an average age of 54 years was measured with the aid of the DEXA technique at one week, 3 and 6 months after total hip replacement. Within the first 3 months there was an average reduction of bone density of 3.9% (3.0%-5.9%). After a further 3 months the average difference was 2.5%.  (+info)

Changes in urinary excretion of pyridinium cross-links during Spacelab-J. (2/31)

In SLJ-1 we proposed to study three major objectives. They were; 1. hormonal changes associated with fluid and electrolyte metabolism, 2. the effect of space flight on the circadian rhythms of endocrine and metabolic systems, 3. the changes in the indices of the bone and muscle metabolism during space flight. In this report, the changes in the bone metabolism during Spacelab-J will be presented with a special emphasis on urinary excretion of pyridinium cross-links. Timed urine samples from three Japanese payload specialists were obtained for 3 days from May 19 to 21, 1991 (one year before the launch = L-1 year). Immediately before the launch (L-3 to L-0), urine samples were obtained from a payload specialist who was on board the Space Shuttle Endeavor (PS). During the inflight period (flight from September 3 to 10 in 1992), urine samples from the PS were collected by using Urine Monitoring System (UMS). After the landing, they were obtained from the PS for three days (R+0-R+2). Various parameters related to bone metabolism such as hydroxyproline, pyridinium cross-links and calcium were determined. It was noted that excretion of hydroxyproline decreased during the preflight periods when compared with that in the control L-1 year period. The average excretory rate during control period was 846.2 +/- 198.7 milligrams/hour (mean +/- SD), while those in the preflight 474.6 +/- 171.1 milligrams/hour, suggesting the diminished collagen intake during the preflight period. Average excretion rate of pyridinium cross-links during the first 4 mission days (MD0-MD3) was similar to that of preflight and control L-1 year period. However, it was significantly increased during the last 4 mission days (MD4-MD7). It returned to the preflight level during postflight days (R+0-R+2). Increased urinary excretion of calcium during the last 4 mission days were also observed. These results suggest that increase in bone resorption could occur during relatively short stay in microgravity.  (+info)

A randomized controlled trial of calcium with vitamin D, alone or in combination with intravenous pamidronate, for the treatment of low bone mineral density associated with Crohn's disease. (3/31)

BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis is a common complication of Crohn's disease. AIM: To study the effect on the bone mineral density of a bisphosphonate (pamidronate) given intravenously, in combination with oral calcium and vitamin D supplements, compared with oral calcium and vitamin D supplements alone. METHODS: Seventy-four patients with Crohn's disease and low bone mineral density at the lumbar spine and/or hip were randomized to receive either a daily dose of 500 mg of calcium with 400 IU of vitamin D alone or in combination with four three-monthly infusions of 30 mg of intravenous pamidronate over the course of 12 months. The main outcome measure was the change in bone mineral density at the lumbar spine and hip, measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry, at baseline and 12 months. RESULTS: Both groups gained bone mineral density at the lumbar spine and hip after 12 months. There were significant (P < 0.05) changes in the pamidronate group, with gains of + 2.6%[95% confidence interval (CI), 1.4-3.0] at the spine and + 1.6% (95% CI, 0.6-2.5) at the hip, compared with gains of + 1.6% (95% CI, - 0.1-3.2) and + 0.9% (95% CI, - 0.4-2.1) at the spine and hip, respectively, in the group taking vitamin D and calcium supplements alone. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with Crohn's disease and low bone mineral density, intravenous pamidronate significantly increases the bone mineral density at the lumbar spine and hip.  (+info)

Rapid hip bone loss in active Crohn's disease patients receiving short-term corticosteroid therapy. (4/31)

BACKGROUND: Uncertainty over whether corticosteroids cause bone loss in patients with Crohn's disease may reflect their short, intermittent use. AIM: We investigated whether a 2-month course of prednisolone is associated with detectable bone loss. METHODS: Fifteen patients with active Crohn's disease and 19 controls with inactive Crohn's disease were recruited. Bone mineral density of the lumbar spine and hip was measured at baseline and 2 and 8 months. RESULTS: At 2 months, significant bone loss was found in patients with active disease (femoral neck -2.7%, P < 0.002; Ward's triangle -3.9%, P < 0.01). Although bone mineral density was still lower at 8 months, these differences were no longer significant (-1.3% and -3.4%, femoral neck and Ward's triangle, respectively). No significant change in hip bone mineral density was observed in controls. Previous corticosteroid use was not significantly associated with baseline bone mineral density, although significant independent associations were observed between weight, site of disease and lumbar spine bone mineral density, and between dietary calcium deficiency and femoral neck and Ward's triangle bone mineral density. CONCLUSION: Significant bone loss at the hip can be detected in patients receiving corticosteroid treatment for 2 months for active Crohn's disease ; however, it remains unclear whether this is because of disease activity or its treatment. This rapid bone loss may represent a risk factor for fracture and justify bone protective therapy.  (+info)

Muscle strength is a determinant of bone mineral content in the hemiparetic upper extremity: implications for stroke rehabilitation. (5/31)

Individuals with stroke have a high incidence of bone fractures and approximately 30% of these fractures occur in the upper extremity. The high risk of falls and the decline in bone and muscle health make the chronic stroke population particularly prone to upper extremity fractures. This was the first study to investigate the bone mineral content (BMC), bone mineral density (BMD), and soft tissue composition of the upper extremities and their relationship to stroke-related impairments in ambulatory individuals with chronic stroke (onset >1 year). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to acquire total body scans on 56 (22 women) community-dwelling individuals (>or=50 years of age) with chronic stroke. BMC (g) and BMD (g/cm2), lean mass (g), and fat mass (g) for each arm were derived from the total body scans. The paretic upper extremity was evaluated for muscle strength (hand-held dynamometry), impairment of motor function (Fugl-Meyer motor assessment), spasticity (Modified Ashworth Scale), and amount of use of the paretic arm in daily activities (Motor Activity Log). Results showed that the paretic arm had significantly lower BMC (13.8%, P<0.001), BMD (4.5%, P<0.001), and lean mass (9.0%, P<0.001) but higher fat mass (6.3%, P=0.028) than the non-paretic arm. Multiple regression analysis showed that lean mass in the paretic arm, height, and muscle strength were significant predictors (R2=0.810, P<0.001) of the paretic arm BMC. Height, muscle strength, and gender were significant predictors (R2=0.822, P<0.001) of lean mass in the paretic arm. These results highlight the potential of muscle strengthening to promote bone health of the paretic arm in individuals with chronic stroke.  (+info)

Association between phosphate removal and markers of bone turnover in haemodialysis patients. (6/31)

BACKGROUND: As the main mineral reservoir, bone acts as a calcium (Ca) and phosphate buffering system. Accordingly, phosphate removal by haemodialysis (HD) might be theoretically influenced by bone turnover, as well as by the interaction of regulatory molecules, such as PTH and osteoprotegerin (OPG). The present study investigated the relationship between these variables and phosphate removal by HD. METHODS: Blood samples for serum Ca, phosphate, bicarbonate, intact PTH, PTH (1-84), bone alkaline phosphatase, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b, OPG and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) were obtained in 28 HD patients. Phosphate removal was measured by a continuous collection of the dialysate. RESULTS: Pre-dialysis serum phosphate concentration is the critical factor in determining dialytic phosphate removal. However, multiple regression analysis reveals that phosphate removal is better explained by a combination of factors than by phosphate concentration alone. In this model, the PTH/OPG ratio is an additional positive factor, whereas age and vitamin D treatment are negative factors. Patients with pre-HD bicarbonate higher than 20 mEq/l had higher serum phosphate and, accordingly, higher phosphate removal; of interest, these individuals also have significant differences in RANKL/OPG. Mean (SD) OPG levels were significantly higher than that in the healthy population (16.2 (12.5) pmol/l; these values correlated with age (r = 0.4, P<0.04). Mean serum RANKL (1.03 (1.02) pmol/l) was within the range of normal individuals. CONCLUSIONS: Dialytic phosphate removal has a crucial, direct relationship with pre-HD plasma phosphate levels. However, the phenomenon of phosphate removal is more precisely explained using a more complex relationship, defined by the interaction between serum phosphate, PTH/OPG, age and vitamin D administration. Serum RANKL levels are first reported in HD patients, and are not different from the normal population.  (+info)

Natural calcium isotopic composition of urine as a marker of bone mineral balance. (7/31)

BACKGROUND: We investigated whether changes in the natural isotopic composition of calcium in human urine track changes in net bone mineral balance, as predicted by a model of calcium isotopic behavior in vertebrates. If so, isotopic analysis of natural urine or blood calcium could be used to monitor short-term changes in bone mineral balance that cannot be detected with other techniques. METHODS: Calcium isotopic compositions are expressed as delta(44)Ca, or the difference in parts per thousand between the (44)Ca/(40)Ca of a sample and the (44)Ca/(40)Ca of a standard reference material. delta(44)Ca was measured in urine samples from 10 persons who participated in a study of the effectiveness of countermeasures to bone loss in spaceflight, in which 17 weeks of bed rest was used to induce bone loss. Study participants were assigned to 1 of 3 treatment groups: controls received no treatment, one treatment group received alendronate, and another group performed resistive exercise. Measurements were made on urine samples collected before, at 2 or 3 points during, and after bed rest. RESULTS: Urine delta(44)Ca values during bed rest were lower in controls than in individuals treated with alendronate (P <0.05, ANOVA) or exercise (P <0.05), and lower than the control group baseline (P <0.05, t-test). Results were consistent with the model and with biochemical and bone mineral density data. CONCLUSION: Results confirm the predicted relationship between bone mineral balance and calcium isotopes, suggesting that calcium isotopic analysis of urine might be refined into a clinical and research tool.  (+info)

Disease progression in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome: impact on growth and development. (8/31)

OBJECTIVES: Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome is a rare and uniformly fatal segmental "premature aging" disease that affects a variety of organ systems. We sought to more clearly define the bone and weight abnormalities in patients with progeria as potential outcome parameters for prospective clinical trials. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We collected and analyzed longitudinal medical information, both retrospectively and prospectively, from a total of 41 children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome spanning 14 countries, from the Progeria Research Foundation Medical and Research Database at the Brown University Center for Gerontology. RESULTS: In addition to a number of previously well-defined phenotypic findings in children with progeria, this study identified abnormalities in the eruption of secondary incisors lingually and palatally in the mandible and maxilla, respectively. Although bony structures appeared normal in early infancy, clavicular resorption, coxa valga, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, modeling abnormalities of long bones with slender diaphyses, flared metaphyses, and overgrown epiphyses developed. Long bones showed normal cortical thickness centrally and progressive focal demineralization peripherally. The most striking finding identified in the retrospective data set of 35 children was an average weight increase of only 0.44 kg/year, beginning at approximately 24 months of age and persisting through life, with remarkable intrapatient linearity. This rate is >2 SD below normal weight gain for any corresponding age and sharply contrasts with the parabolic growth pattern for normal age- and gender-matched children. This finding was also confirmed prospectively. CONCLUSIONS: Our analysis shows evidence of a newly identified abnormal growth pattern for children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome. The skeletal and dental findings are suggestive of a developmental dysplasia rather than a classical aging process. The presence of decreased and linear weight gain, maintained in all of the patients after the age of 2 years, provides the ideal parameter on which altered disease status can be assessed in clinical trials.  (+info)

Without regular use, the muscles weaken and slowly deteriorate, a process called atrophy. Disuse also causes the bones to degenerate and weaken. In microgravity, the musculoskeletal system is not used as intensively as it is on Earth, which causes a reduction of bone and muscle strength and size, particularly in the bones and muscles that are used to support the body against gravity. Muscle atrophy results in a loss of lean body mass, a decrease of muscle mass in gravity-bearing muscles, and decreased muscle strength. Bone demineralization results in a loss of calcium and bone density. To study the changes in bones and muscles in space, measurements of protein and calcium metabolism are made. Exposure to microgravity produces a negative calcium and nitrogen balance in the musculoskeletal system. Non-invasive imaging methods, like Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), can be used to study the structural changes in bone and muscle after exposure to microgravity. The long-duration Mir missions allowed ...

Dentures - Dentist in ِDubai  Dentures - Dentist in ِDubai
One of the main drawbacks of traditional dentures is that they can become loose or fit poorly. This is because your gum and bone tissues will continue to change over time meaning that your dentures original fit wont fit as well compared to when you first received them. Dentures also have a tendency of slipping or falling out, which can make speaking and chewing difficult.. To address these problems, Dynasty Tower Dental offers implant supported dentures to our patients. Implant supported dentures stay in place by a small number of dental implants that are embedded into your jawbone. Besides anchoring the dentures into place, the implants help to prevent bone demineralization and maintain your jaws overall structure. As a result, implant supported dentures are more stable, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing than traditional dentures.. ...

PEDAL OSTEITIS by Richard Dunivant [12/00;F;012f4.htm]  PEDAL OSTEITIS by Richard Dunivant [12/00;F;012f4.htm]
Once a diagnosis is made, optimally, the veterinarian and farrier will work together to come up with a shoeing regimen/prescription. For example, the veterinarian may prescribe nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDS), and, while consulting with the farrier for his/her input, they will arrive at a shoeing regimen that will vary according to the needs of the animal. Severe or chronic sole bruising must be minimized. I always recommend an aluminum shoe since aluminum absorbs more concussion than steel. It is sole concussion that initiates the inflammatory process responsible for bone demineralization and periosteal proliferation. These horses also benefit from the use of sole-toughening agents such as a combination of iodine and formaldehyde in a 1:1 solution concentration. Commercial products like Durasole can be employed by the farrier and client. In an effort to minimize the forces of weight bearing on the sole, I have seen egg bar shoes prescribed with a sole trimmed to achieve a deep ...

6) Promotes good eyesight. Rich in vitamin A as well as beta-carotene, chives ensure the health of our eyesight. Lutein and zeaxanthin, antioxidants with vitamin A activity, protect the macula lutea area and the retina from harmful free radicals from light and are said to contribute to lowering macular degeneration risks (loss of central vision).. 7) Increases calcium absorption in bones. Chives are an incredible source of vitamin K, a nutrient known to increase calcium absorption in bones. By preventing hormonal imbalances leading to bone demineralization, vitamin K preserves bone integrity and bone health. Moreover, a healthy intake also prevents arterial calcification and its aftermath, atherosclerosis.. 8) Reduces inflammation levels. Rich in vitamins C and K, two potent natural anti-inflammatory vitamins, chives are efficient at reducing inflammation levels levels in the body. According to research, high inflammation levels play a big part in the onset of chronic diseases such as diabetes, ...

DME.00022 Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES); Threshold Electrical Stimulation (TES)  DME.00022 Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES); Threshold Electrical Stimulation (TES)
FES is designed to stimulate muscles and thus improve the function of the extremities. FES has primarily been investigated in individuals with neurologic impairment, most prominently following SCI, stroke or multiple sclerosis. The stimulation is directed at improving function by utilizing devices intended to restore ambulation in the lower extremity or dexterity and function in the upper extremity; or devices to indirectly improve function, such as exercise devices adapted to FES, which are designed to prevent or treat muscle disuse atrophy. The majority of these devices use surface electrodes, but intramuscular (IM) electrodes have also been used. Standard therapy in individuals with neurologic impairment includes active and passive physiotherapy and the use of various braces and orthoses. Therefore, studies were reviewed that investigate the outcomes of FES compared to these standard therapies. FES Devices to Prevent Muscle Atrophy and Bone Demineralization A variety of devices use electrical ...

Gastric Mucosal Calcinosis  Gastric Mucosal Calcinosis
Generally, gastric mucosal calcinosis (GMC) is only rarely encountered in routine biopsies. They have been associated with a wide spectrum of clinical conditions. The underlying mechanism by which a given cell or group of cells accumulate calcium is unclear. It has been suggested that calcium enters the cell by passive diffusion attributable to the concentration gradient across the gastric cell membrane, and that accumulation occurs when the ability to extrude these salts is exceeded. Gastric mucosal calcinosis (GMC) may be secondary to hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, atrophic gastritis, hypervitaminosis A, chronic kidney disease, tumor lysis syndrome, organ transplantation, gastric neoplasia, or may be associated with use of citrate-containing blood products, aluminum-containing antacids, sucralfate or bismuth [1-6]. GMC may rarely cause symptoms such as epigastric pain or dyspepsia [7,8]. The clinical relevance of GMC remains to be seen. In theory, however, accelerated bone demineralization ...

Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a disorder of the extremities that is characterized by spontaneous unexplained disproportionate pain, hyperalgesia, swelling, limited range of motion, vasomotor instability, skin changes, and patchy bone demineralization.The incidence of CRPS was estimated to be 5.46 per 100,000 person years at risk in Olmsted County, Minnesota (US), with a prevalence of 20.57 per 100,000, while its incidence in the general population of the Netherlands was estimated to be much higher, at 26.2 per 100,000 person-years. The adverse effects were not serious and lasted just a few days. The beneficial effects of other bisphosphonates have been already documented in several placebo-controlled trials; however, there are no reports on the use of zoledronic acid to reduce pain in CRPS patients ...

AU - Lee, Sang-Hyup. AU - Lee, Seunghak. AU - Choi, Jae Woo. PY - 2014. Y1 - 2014. N2 - To remove phosphate from solution, a new class of sorbent based on chitosan bead (CB) was prepared using copper ion (Cu(II)) with/without a traditional crosslinking agent (glutaraldehyde [GLA]); these materials are referred to as CB-G-Cu and CB-Cu, respectively. Copper ions play a key role in the CB synthesis; these species crosslink each polymer chain, and during phosphate removal, they are the active functional group. Overall, 2.5% (w/w) of chitosan is necessary to maintain the physical properties of the bead. In the FTIR spectra, adding GLA decreased the intensity of the amino group in chitosan, lowering the amount of copper in the CB. The maximum phosphate uptake (Q) for CB-Cu was 53.6 mg g-1 when calculated with the Langmuir ...

NASA Should Use an Ethics Framework When Making Decisions About Health Standards For Long Duration and Exploration Spaceflights  NASA Should Use an Ethics Framework When Making Decisions About Health Standards For Long Duration and Exploration Spaceflights
For any mission, NASA has to make numerous decisions that balance mission necessity against health and safety risks for the crew, technological feasibility, and financial costs. The possible health risks -- such as vision impairments, bone demineralization, radiation exposure, and impact on behavior -- vary from mission to mission. Long duration and exploration spaceflights, including extended stays on the International Space Station and trips to Mars, will likely expose crews to increased risks. As part of its risk management process to protect the health and safety of astronauts, NASA has adopted standards to provide a healthy and safe environment before, during, and after all flights. The committee stressed that NASAs policies to initiate and revise health standards should reflect the most relevant and up-to-date evidence, but recommended that NASA explicitly indicate how these policies are consistent with the ethics principles described in the report ...

Hierarchically macroporous-mesoporous SBA-15 phosphate adsorbent was synthesized via a dual-templating approach, followed by diamino-functionalization and Fe(III) impregnation. The resulting Fe(III)-coordinated diamino-functionalized macroporous-mesoporous adsorbent possessed well-defined and interconnecting macroporous and mesoporous networks. Its maximum adsorption was 12.7 mg/g, which was 86.8% greater than that of Fe(III)-coordinated amino-functionalized mesoporous SBA-15. In the kinetic study of macroporous-mesoporous adsorbent, 92.5% of the final adsorption capacity reached in the first 1 min; and the adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order equation well, suggesting the presence of chemisorption. The pH ranging from 3.0 to 6.0 favored the high phosphate adsorption of hierarchically porous adsorbent; however, the coexistence of other anions, especially F-, retarded the adsorption.. ...

Terra rossa as the substrate for biological phosphate removal from wastewater | Clay Minerals | GeoScienceWorld  Terra rossa as the substrate for biological phosphate removal from wastewater | Clay Minerals | GeoScienceWorld
Three samples of terra rossa were shown to be efficient adsorbents of phosphate [P(V)] from wastewater and removed 29.9-32.6% of P(V). The total iron content in terra rossa was the key factor which determined the P(V) removal from wastewater. The original samples of terra rossa were effective support materials for the immobilization of metabolically active P(V)-accumulating bacteria Acinetobacter junii (0.56-2.47×1010 CFU g-1). The removal of oxalate-extractable iron from original sample of terra rossa increased the number of immobilized bacteria to 1.34×1011 CFU g-1, which is the largest number of immobilized bacteria reported in the literature so far. In reactors containing the A. junii and terra rossa P(V) was removed from wastewater by simultaneous adsorption onto terra rossa and accumulation inside bacterial cells, resulting in 40.5-62.5% of P(V) removal. Terra rossa is a promising substrate for biological P(V) removal from wastewater, acting both as adsorbent of P(V) and carrier of ...

Neonatal primary hyperparathyroidism masked by vitamin D deficiency. - Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging  Neonatal primary hyperparathyroidism masked by vitamin D deficiency. - Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging
Neonatal primary hyperparathyroidism is a life threatening disorder that is associated with severe hypercalcaemia, hypotonia, bone demineralization, fractures and respiratory distress. Treatment consists of total parathyroidectomy and without this affected infants will usually die by the age of three months. We report a patient with neonatal primary hyperparathyroidism who survived without fractures or parathyroidectomy to an age of nine months, and in whom the hypercalcaemia became masked by vitamin D deficiency. At surgery, four-gland hyperplasia was demonstrated and total parathyroidectomy followed by oral calcitriol treatment has restored well-being and normocalcaemia. An absence of skeletal complications, a survival beyond three months of age without parathyroidectomy and the masking of the hypercalcaemia by vitamin D deficiency represents a unique combination of metabolic abnormalities in a patient with neonatal primary hyperparathyroidism.

This is Part 2 of an in vitro study investigating two techniques for recording and quantifying demineralization surrounding orthodontic brackets. In Part 1 the repeatability of computerized image analysis from digitally converted photographic slides and quantitative light‐induced fluorescence (QLF) was explored. In Part 2 of the investigation the validity of each technique was examined.. Thirty halved human molars, shaped to look like incisors and with an orthodontic bracket bonded to the buccal surface were used. A small area of each of the four edges of the bracket was variously exposed to a demineralizing gel for 0, 3, 7, or 14 days. Images of the teeth were taken and analysed using the two techniques. Repeat images and analysis were carried out blind. The sensitivity, specificity, positive, and negative predictive values were calculated.. A negative result confirmed that there was no demineralization present in the majority of cases. A positive result was less reliable particularly for the ...

20150210 BiAqua B.V. - Mrs. Sandie Chauveau - "Biofouling of membrane systems by phosphate limitation" The start-up BiAqua developed a novel approach (invented by TUD) of combating bio-fouling by selective phosphate removal from the feed water, which stops the growth of micro-organisms. Phosphate is adsorbed to below 1 μg/l on a bio-degradable adsorbens, containing iron with good affinity to phosphate.. The adsorbens in a normal sand-filter or IX housing is operated as such and can be regenerated multiple times with caustic. Pilot on drinking water and secondary wastewater treatment effluent proved effective and stable, resulting in constant low pressure drop over RO modules that otherwise exhibited severe bio-fouling.. Applications in surface water, horticulture, cooling towers are developed with partners. Outlook for 2015 is demo scale. www.biaqua.nl. ...

The role of neutralizing antibodies in prevention of HIV-1 infection: what can we learn from the mother-to-child transmission...  The role of neutralizing antibodies in prevention of HIV-1 infection: what can we learn from the mother-to-child transmission...
In most viral infections, protection through existing vaccines is linked to the presence of vaccine-induced neutralizing antibodies (NAbs). However, more than 30 years after the identification of AIDS, the design of an immunogen able to induce antibodies that would neutralize the highly diverse HIV-1 variants remains one of the most puzzling challenges of the human microbiology. The role of antibodies in protection against HIV-1 can be studied in a natural situation that is the mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) context. Indeed, at least at the end of pregnancy, maternal antibodies of the IgG class are passively transferred to the fetus protecting the neonate from new infections during the first weeks or months of life. During the last few years, strong data, presented in this review, have suggested that some NAbs might confer protection toward neonatal HIV-1 infection. In cases of transmission, it has been shown that the viral population that is transmitted from the mother to the infant is usually

Differences in IMRT Radiation Doses May Complicate Study Results in Gynecological Cancers  Differences in IMRT Radiation Doses May Complicate Study Results in Gynecological Cancers
Differences between the prescribed dose of radiation in intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and the dose thats actually delivered may make comparison studies in gynecological cancers difficult to interpret. These findings were reported in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.. Radiation therapy is often used in the treatment of various forms of cancer. Radiation therapy uses beams of radiation to slow or stop cancer cell growth, which shrinks or eliminates the tumor.. Intensity modulated radiation therapy is an advanced radiation technique that uses computers to control the devices that deliver precise radiation doses to malignant tumors or specific areas of the tumor. Because the surrounding tissues are minimally affected with IMRT, higher, more-effective radiation doses may be delivered to the tumor, with fewer side effects. Currently, IMRT is approved for the treatment of cancers of the prostate, head and neck, breast, thyroid, and lung, as well as for gynecological cancers, ...
