    Notes: Abstract The present study evaluated a commercial device for peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) and examined the age-related changes in normal Japanese women. The volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) of the distal radius [integral bone mineral density (BMDI), trabecular bone mineral density (BMDT) and cortical with subcortical bone mineral density (BMDSC)] was measured using pQCT (Norland-Stratec XCT960) in 617 healthy women aged 20–79 years and 75 subjects with osteoporosis aged 60–89 years who exhibited at least one vertebral fracture. The short-term precision errors in vivo (CV, %) were 1.1% for BMDI 1.1% for BMDT and 1.2% for BMDSC. The correlations between pQCT and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measurements (Lunar DPX) of the lumbar spine werer∼0.8 (BMDI, BMDT and BMDSC). The maximal mean vBMD values were observed between 20 and 49 years; BMDI BMDT and BMDSC all showed a linear postmenopausal decline averaging 1.1% per year. The overall decreases in vBMD from the peak values in those 70–79 years were 34%, 32% and 33% in BMDI, BMDT and BMDSC, respectively. The diagnostic sensitivity of osteoporosis was expressed as aT-score.T-scores using pQCT were −3.0 (BMDI), −2.4 (BMDT) and −2.9 (BMDSC). Bone mineral measurement of the distal radius may be useful in the evaluation of age-related bone loss and for the diagnosis of osteoporosis.

    Notes: Abstract Although solitary fibrous tumors are well-recognized in the pleura, their occurrence in the paranasal sinuses is decidedly uncommon. We have encountered two cases of solitary fibrous tumors in the paranasal sinuses and report the clinicopathological findings including CD34 immunoreactivity. One tumor arose in a 55-year-old Japanese businessman and the other in a 53-year-old man who had been in the hospital for schizophrenia for 20 years. The tumors showed characteristic findings. Immunoperoxidase stains on paraffin sections showed staining of the cells for anti-vimentin, but there was no staining for anti-keratin, anti-S-100 protein, anti-desmin, anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), or anti-actin. Anti-CD34 monoclonal antibodies also reacted with these tumors, as those of the pleura generally do, and were found to be useful in diagnosing these tumors.
