Aim: The aim of this study is evaluating of body composition and frequency of sarcopenia in women depending on age.Materials and methods: We have examined 8637 women aged 20–89 years (mean age – 56.7±0.14 years; mean height – 162.5±0.07 cm; mean weight – 73.5±0.16 kg). The patients were divided into two groups depending on age: 20–24 (n=143), 25–29 (n=209), 30–34 (n=271), 35&#15...

The aim of our study was to evaluate the anthropometric characteristics in postmenopausal women depending on appendicular skeletal mass.Materials and methods: We’ve examined 8882 women aged 20–89 years (mean age – 56.7±0.14 years; mean height – 162.5±0.07 cm; mean weight – 73.5±0.16 kg), among them anthropometric measures were performed in 79 postmenopausal women aged 40–82 years (mean age – 63.53±1....

The aim of the study was to evaluate the peculiarities of body composition in postmenopausal women depending on bone mineral density (BMD).Materials and methods: We’ve examined 8882 women aged 20–89 years (mean age – 56.7±0.14 years; mean height – 162.5±0.07 cm; mean weight – 73.5±0.16 kg). Anthropometric measures were performed in 80 postmenopausal women aged 40–82 years (mean age – 63.53±1.08 years...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of vitamin D and exercises in correction of age-related skeletal muscle changes in postmenopausal women.Materials and methods: 38 postmenopausal women aged 53–82 years (mean age – 67.00±7.08 yrs) were examined. The women were divided into the following groups: A – control group (n=10), B – women who took an individually-targeted vitamin D therapy (n=11), C – wom...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the appendicular lean mass depending on the dietary protein intake in the Ukrainian postmenopausal women.Materials and methods: The study involved 63 women aged 52–89 years, who, depending on their ages, were divided into groups: 52–59 years (n=9), 60–69 years (n=26), 70–79 years (n=21), 80–89 years (n=7). To assess the dietary habits of women, we used the t...

Areal bone mineral density (aBMD) of the PA spine and proximal femur remained the gold standard for WHO classification of osteoporosis, fracture prediction and patient monitoring. Unfortunately, with age it is not infrequent to observe the presence of degenerative disease such as spinal osteoarthritis which would have a positive artifactual impact on aBMD which could lead to an erroneous interpretation. In a previous study it has been demonstrated that apparently such artifact...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the trabecular bone score (TBS), bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition in men of various ages.Materials and methods: 300 men aged 40–87 years (mean age – 60.5±0.6 years; mean height – 1.61±0.003 m; mean weight – 84.1±0.9 kg) were examined. The patients were divided into the following age-dependent groups: 40–49 years (n=52), 50–59 years (n=90), ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the trabecular bone score (TBS), bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition in women of various ages.Materials and methods: 494 women aged 41–89 years (mean age, 63.6±0.4 years; mean height, 1.61±0.003 m; and mean weight, 74.0±0.6 kg) were examined. The patients were divided into the following age-dependent groups: 40–49 years (n=35), 50–59 years (n=130), 60–6...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular bone score (TBS) in the Ukrainian women with obesity.Materials and methods: 1025 women aged 40–89 years (mean age – 62.7±9.7 yrs; mean height – 161.4±6.2 cm; mean weight – 73.9±13.8 kg, body mass index – 28.4±5.1 kg/m2) were examined. The women were divided into the following groups depending on their body mass index: A...
