Sammanfattning av projektet
Projektet gäller utveckling av en ny metod för att screena postmenopausala kvinnors osteoporosrisk byggd på hypotesen att underkäkens åldersförändring är kraftigare hos osteoporospatienten än hos normalpatienten. Den tandbärande delen, alveolarutskottet,består av kompakt och trabekulärt ben. Det senare avtecknas på röntgenbilder. Metoden är deskriptiv. Bredden mittrots på en premolar mäts på gipsmodell och korreleras till en bentäthetsmätning av underarmen med dual X-eay absorptiometry, DXA. Bentäthets mätningen korreleras också till olika livstilsfaktorer, insamlade via frågeformulär, och med objektiv och subjektiv röntgenbentäthet.Typ av projekt
ForskningsprojektMeSH-termer för att beskriva ämnesområdet
Inlagda MeSH-termer- Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal
- Metabolic disorder associated with fractures of the femoral neck, vertebrae, and distal forearm. It occurs commonly in women within 15-20 years after menopause, and is caused by factors associated with menopause including estrogen deficiency.
- Women
- Human adult females as cultural, psychological, sociological, political, and economic entities.
- Mandible
- The largest and strongest bone of the FACE constituting the lower jaw. It supports the lower teeth.
- Adult
- A person having attained full growth or maturity. Adults are of 19 through 44 years of age.
- Aged
- A person 65 through 79 years of age. For a person older than 79 years, AGED, 80 AND OVER is available.
- Alveolar Process
- The thickest and spongiest part of the maxilla and mandible hollowed out into deep cavities for the teeth.
- Bicuspid
- One of the eight permanent teeth, two on either side in each jaw, between the canines (CUSPID) and the molars (MOLAR), serving for grinding and crushing food. The upper have two cusps (bicuspid) but the lower have one to three. (Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p822)
- Female
- Forecasting
- The prediction or projection of the nature of future problems or existing conditions based upon the extrapolation or interpretation of existing scientific data or by the application of scientific methodology.
- Humans
- Members of the species Homo sapiens.
- Incisor
- Any of the eight frontal teeth (four maxillary and four mandibular) having a sharp incisal edge for cutting food and a single root, which occurs in man both as a deciduous and a permanent tooth. (Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p820)
- Middle Aged
- Radius
- Risk Factors
- An aspect of personal behavior or lifestyle, environmental exposure, or inborn or inherited characteristic, which, on the basis of epidemiologic evidence, is known to be associated with a health-related condition considered important to prevent.
- Ulna
- Reproducibility of Results
- The statistical reproducibility of measurements (often in a clinical context), including the testing of instrumentation or techniques to obtain reproducible results. The concept includes reproducibility of physiological measurements, which may be used to develop rules to assess probability or prognosis, or response to a stimulus; reproducibility of occurrence of a condition; and reproducibility of experimental results.
- Bone Density
- The amount of mineral per square centimeter of BONE. This is the definition used in clinical practice. Actual bone density would be expressed in grams per milliliter. It is most frequently measured by X-RAY ABSORPTIOMETRY or TOMOGRAPHY, X RAY COMPUTED. Bone density is an important predictor for OSTEOPOROSIS.
- Linear Models
- Statistical models in which the value of a parameter for a given value of a factor is assumed to be equal to a + bx, where a and b are constants. The models predict a linear regression.
- Premenopause
- The period before MENOPAUSE. In premenopausal women, the climacteric transition from full sexual maturity to cessation of ovarian cycle takes place between the age of late thirty and early fifty.
- Postmenopause
- The physiological period following the MENOPAUSE, the permanent cessation of the menstrual life.
- Fractures, Bone
- Breaks in bones.
- Oral Health
- The optimal state of the mouth and normal functioning of the organs of the mouth without evidence of disease.
- Public Health Dentistry
- A dental specialty concerned with the prevention of disease and the maintenance of oral health through promoting organized dental health programs at a community, state, or federal level.
- Dental Care
- The total of dental diagnostic, preventive, and restorative services provided to meet the needs of a patient (from Illustrated Dictionary of Dentistry, 1982).
