Background: Evidence on recent trends regarding the impact and cost-benefits of ultrasound
in resource-constrained settings is limited. This study presents a systematic review to …

Osteoporosis is a systemic disease characterized by bone mass reductions and heightened
fracture risk; its global prevalence rates are projected to increase precipitously over the next …

Risk and time preferences have often been viewed as reflecting inherent traits such as
impatience and self-control. Here, we offer an alternative perspective, arguing that they are …

Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections can result in a variety of negative health outcomes
(eg, diarrhea, nutritional deficiencies). Market integration (MI; participation in market-based …

Objective: Clinical and epidemiological research suggest that bone mineral density (BMD) in
women is shaped by various reproductive factors such as parity and lactation patterns …

The objective of the present study is to investigate the relationships between body
composition, nutritional profile, muscular fitness (MF) and bone health in a sample of …

Objectives A number of basic questions about bone biology have not been answered,
including population differences in bone turnover. In part, this stems from the lack of …

Objectives Bone is a dynamic organ under continual turnover influenced by life history
stage, energy dynamics, diet, climate, and disease. Bone turnover data have enormous …

Objective Low bone density and osteoporosis prevalence, while well‐documented in
wealthy nations, are poorly studied in rural, non‐clinical contexts in economically …

Objectives Investigating factors that contribute to bone loss and accretion across populations
in remote settings is challenging, particularly where diagnostic tools are scarce. To mitigate …
