There may be relationships between bone mineral density at different body locations and cardiac calcification. Sex-specific differences may exist in these relationships. Further research is needed to ...

Vascular calcification, low bone mass and fragility fractures are all frequent age-dependent disorders. Recent clinical and experimental data suggest that vascular calcification and bone loss could ...

A new study published suggests that the connection between coronary artery calcification—a measure of calcium buildup in the arteries—and bone mineral density may be driven in part by shared genetic ...

Purpose: The role of vitamin K in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis and arterial calcification is examined. Summary: Vitamin K is essential for the activation of vitamin K-dependent ...

Benign and cancerous calcium phosphate deposits that may look identical on a mammogram have distinct differences in their structures and formation processes, according to researchers at the University ...
