Caloric Restriction and Calcium's Effect on Bone Metabolism and Body Composition in Overweight and Obese Premenopausal Women

Journal ArticleDOI
Calvarium thinning in patients with spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid leak.
TL;DR: Patients with spontaneous CSF leak are more likely to be obese, have the diagnosis of OSA, and show thinning of their entire calvarium that is independent of BMI, which suggests an additional obesity-associated intracranial process contributes to skull thinning.
