Abstract

The bone mineral content in the forearms was measured in 71 epileptics, admitted to an institution for epileptics. The mineral content was decreased in epileptics as compared with age-matched normal controls. The decrease was in the order of 10--15% except in the distal end of the forearm in women. Also, the strength of the hand and forearm was decreased by 1/3 and since there is a known relationship between strength and bone mineral content, the loss of bone mineral may be secondary to the loss of strength. Therefore, inactivity could be an important contributory factor to the bone mineral loss in these epileptics.

摘要

对71名入住癫痫患者机构的癫痫患者测量了前臂的骨矿物质含量。与年龄匹配的正常对照组相比，癫痫患者的矿物质含量降低。除女性前臂远端外，降低幅度为10% - 15%。此外，手部和前臂的力量降低了三分之一，而且由于力量与骨矿物质含量之间存在已知的关系，骨矿物质的流失可能是力量丧失的继发结果。因此，缺乏活动可能是这些癫痫患者骨矿物质流失的一个重要促成因素。
