Journal ArticleDOI

Transplantability and therapeutic effects of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal cells in children with osteogenesis imperfecta

TL;DR: Improvements in total body bone mineral content and growth velocity were associated with increases in growth velocity and reduced frequencies of bone fracture, indicating the feasibility of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in the treatment of osteogenesis imperfecta and perhaps other mesenchymal stem cell disorders as well.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coronary Artery Calcium Area by Electron-Beam Computed Tomography and Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaque Area A Histopathologic Correlative Study

TL;DR: This histopathologic study confirms an intimate relation between whole heart, coronary artery, and segmental coronary atherosclerotic plaque area and EBCT coronary calcium area but suggests that there is a threshold value for plaque area below which coronary calcium is either absent or not detectable by this methodology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arterial calcification and not lumen stenosis is highly correlated with atherosclerotic plaque burden in humans: A histologic study of 723 coronary artery segments using nondecalcifying methodology

TL;DR: Coronary calcium quantification is an excellent method of assessing atherosclerotic plaque presence at individual artery sites and the remodeling phenomenon is the likely explanation for the lack of a good predictive value between lumen narrowing and quantification of mural calcification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical responses to bone marrow transplantation in children with severe osteogenesis imperfecta

TL;DR: Clinical responses of the first children to undergo allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) for severe osteogenesis imperfecta, a genetic disorder characterized by defective type I collagen, osteopenia, bone fragility, severe bony deformities, and growth retardation, are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Abaloparatide vs Placebo on New Vertebral Fractures in Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

TL;DR: Among postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, the use of subcutaneous abaloparatide, compared with placebo, reduced the risk of new vertebral and nonvertebral fractures over 18 months.
