Background. For proper construction and functioning of human skeletal system a very important thing is adequate supply of calcium, which content in daily rations, in addition to genetics, degree of physical activity and level of sex steroids, is an essential factor influencing on bone mass. Aim of the work: the aim of the work was to assess mineral status of regular soldiers doing military service in different types of Polish military units. Material and methods. An assessment of bones calcification and protein-energy nutritional status of 1913 men, soldiers doing military service in different types of Polish military units, was made. Body height and body mass were determined by standard methods using a scales and a height-meter. Bone mineral density was measured by DEXA densitometry on forearm bone of non-prevailing arm, using the EXA 3000 apparatus. Results. Results of densitometry showed that 1594 soldiers, that is 83.3% of subjects had standard bone calcification. Bone mineralization characteristic of osteopenia was found among 304 people, that is 15.9% of examined, while 15 subjects (0.8%) revealed changes characteristic of osteoporosis. Conclusions. 1. Bone mineral density of 16.7% of examined soldiers serving in different types of military units indicates presence of abnormalities in bone calcification with varying degrees of severity. 2. It is advisable to take among soldiers an extensive health promotion regarding dietary health education aimed at nutritional prevention of bone mineralization disorders can cause fractures and early elimination soldiers from service.
This study compared the ability of daidzein, a soy isoflavone, with that of 17 β-estradiol to prevent bone loss in cadmium (Cd)-exposed ovariectomized (OVX) rats during growth. Four week-old female Wistar rats were randomly assigned to five treatment groups of 9 rats each, either (1) sham-operated (SH); (2) OVX and placed on experimental diets (OVX); (3) OVX fed 50 ppm of CdCl2 (OVX-Cd); (4) OVX fed 50 ppm of CdCl2 and 10 µg of daidzein per kg of body mass (OVX-CD-D); or (5) OVX fed 50 ppm of CdCl2 and 10 µg of estrogen per kg of body mass (OVX-CD-E). All rats were given free access to AIN-76 modified diet and drinking water, with or without Cd, for 8 weeks. The OVX groups gained more (P < 0.05) body mass than the SH group. Femoral mass was increased by feeding daidzein and estradiol, whereas femoral length was not (P > 0.05) significantly different among groups. Femoral breaking force was not significantly different among groups, however, femoral BMD was significantly lower in OVX-Cd than in the SH and OVX groups. Morphologically proliferative cartilage and hypertrophic cells in femur showed normal distribution in OVX-Cd-D and OVX-Cd-E groups unlike those in OVX-Cd group. These findings suggest that Cd-OVX-induced osteopenia or osteoporosis probably results from an increase in bone turnover.
