Abstract

In a prospective study, hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) was found to be present in 49% of the subjects. The group included 259 nuns between the ages of 60 and 80. A prevalence of 84% of HFI was found in the obese subjects (greater than 40% over ideal body weight) whereas in the thin subjects HFI was found to be present in only 16%. The possible relationship between adipose tissue mass and HFI is discussed.

摘要

在一项前瞻性研究中，发现49%的受试者存在额骨内板增生症（HFI）。该组包括259名年龄在60至80岁之间的修女。在肥胖受试者（超过理想体重40%以上）中，HFI的患病率为84%，而在瘦的受试者中，仅16%存在HFI。文中讨论了脂肪组织量与HFI之间可能的关系。
