The bone mineral density (BMD) and the associated extracellular status of mineral and acid-
base metabolism were evaluated in 11 males, 3–18 years after total gastrectomy (GX). In the …

Bone mineral metablism was studied in 20 male patients, between 8 and 18 years, after
surgical treatment for peptic ulcer (ten Billroth 1 and ten Billroth 2 gastrectomies) and in 16 …

To study post-gastrectomy metabolic bone disorders, we measured the radial bone mineral
content (BMC), serum levels of calcium, inorganic phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, and …

Gastric surgery is mostly needed for treatment of gastric malignancy. To investigate the effect
of total gastrectomy on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral metabolism we …

A case-control study compared 129 men with earlier partial gastrectomy (operation during
the period 1952–1961) with 216 men from a community-based population study. All were …

Bone disorders following gastrectomy were studied by measuring absolute and relative
bone mineral density of the Wards triangle, serum 1, 25-(OH) 2-D, alkaline phosphatase …

Changes in bone and mineral metabolism that occur after gastrectomy have long been
recognized. Gastrectomy has been identified as a risk factor for decreased bone mass and …

In antrectomized (BI) and control rats, bone mineralization, the fractional intestinal
absorption of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus, the balances of these minerals, their …

BACKGROUND: Studies indicate that gastrectomy might alter calcium and bone
metabolism, resulting in bone disorders. No data are currently available on the prevalence …

Recent advances in the modalities of quantitatively assessing bone mineral content have
resulted in an increasing awareness of metabolic bone disease as a late complication …
