Age- and sex-related regional compressive strength characteristics of human lumbar vertebrae in osteoporosis
Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare, 08/25/09
Kurutz M et al. – For the strongly osteoporotic population (BMD < 0.4 g/cm2, T–score < ?4) the statical variables (loads, stresses) showed significant correlation; mixed variables (stiffness, Young’s modulus, energy) showed moderate correlation; kinematical variables (displacements, strains) showed no correlation with age. The strong correlation of men between BMD and aging and betwen BMD and strength parameters indicated linear trends in age–related strength loss for men; however, the moderate correlation of women between BMD and aging and between BMD and strength parameters suggested the need of nonlinear (quadratic) approximation that provided the better fit in age–related strength functions of females modelling postmenopausal disproportionalities.
