Descriptor English: Bone Demineralization, Pathologic
Descriptor Spanish: Desmineralización Ósea Patológica
Descriptor desmineralización ósea patológica
Entry term(s) desmineralización patológica del hueso
Scope note: Disminución, pérdida o eliminación de los componentes minerales de los huesos. La pérdida temporal del contenido mineral óseo se produce en los vuelos espaciales, el adelgazamiento y la inmovilización prolongada. La OSTEOPOROSIS es permanente y comprende la reducción de la masa ósea total y se asocia a incremento del riesgo de fracturas. La CALCIFICACIÓN FISIOLÓGICA es el proceso de remineralización ósea (Dorland, 27th ed; Stedman, 25th ed; Nicogossian, Space Physiology and Medicine, 2d ed, pp327-33)

Scope note: Decrease, loss, or removal of the mineral constituents of bones. Temporary loss of bone mineral content is especially associated with space flight, weightlessness, and extended immobilization. OSTEOPOROSIS is permanent, includes reduction of total bone mass, and is associated with increased rate of fractures. CALCIFICATION, PHYSIOLOGIC is the process of bone remineralizing. (From Dorland, 27th ed; Stedman, 25th ed; Nicogossian, Space Physiology and Medicine, 2d ed, pp327-33)
