Plasma FGF23 and Calcified Atherosclerotic Plaque in African Americans with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Freedman B, Divers J, Russell G, Palmer N, Bowden D, Carr J, et al.
Am J Nephrol
. 2015 Dec;
42(6):391-401.
PMID: 26693712
Background: Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a phosphaturic hormone implicated in disorders of serum phosphorus concentration and vitamin D. The role of FGF23 in vascular calcification remains controversial. Methods:...

Traffic Inj Prev
. 2015 Oct;
16 Suppl 2:S153-60.
PMID: 26436225
Objective: Low bone quality is a contributing factor to motor vehicle crash (MVC) injury. Quantification of occupant bone mineral density (BMD) is important from an injury causation standpoint. The first...

J Clin Endocrinol Metab
. 2013 Nov;
99(1):315-21.
PMID: 24178795
Context: Bone mineral density (BMD) and calcified atherosclerotic plaque (CP) demonstrate inverse relationships. Sclerostin, an endogenous regulator of the Wnt pathway and bone formation, has been associated with impaired osteoblast...

J Clin Endocrinol Metab
. 2013 Apr;
98(5):1916-22.
PMID: 23543659
Context: Adiposity, bone mineral density (BMD), and calcified atherosclerotic plaque (CP) exhibit complex interrelationships that are not well understood. Adipokines vary in relation to changes in body composition and may...

Circ Cardiovasc Genet
. 2012 Dec;
6(1):97-105.
PMID: 23233742
Background: The presence and severity of coronary artery calcified plaque (CAC) differs markedly between individuals of African and European descent, suggesting that admixture mapping may be informative for identifying genetic...

J Clin Endocrinol Metab
. 2012 Nov;
98(1):E60-5.
PMID: 23125289
Background: Bone mineral density (BMD) and atherosclerotic arterial calcified plaque (CP) demonstrate inverse relationships through unknown mechanisms. Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) is an endogenous inhibitor of bone formation, and serum DKK1 has...

J Bone Miner Res
. 2011 Mar;
26(7):1554-60.
PMID: 21437982
Inverse relationships have been reported between bone mineral density (BMD) and calcified atherosclerotic plaque (CP). This suggests these processes may be related. We examined relationships between BMD and CP in...

J Clin Endocrinol Metab
. 2010 Sep;
95(12):5382-9.
PMID: 20810573
Background: Calcified atherosclerotic plaque (CP) is less prevalent and less severe in African-Americans (AA), relative to European Americans (EA). Because pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) is associated with CP in the...
