After 28-day, Blood samples were taken at the conclusion of the experiment to evaluate bone femur status and blood osteoporosis markers. The findings showed that TP accelerated the increase in body weight. Different doses of TP raised significantly the serum Ca, Mg, OC, and DPD, while the serum P, interleukin 6, PTH, and CRP significantly decreased. The femur's bone ash contents, primarily in calcium and phosphorus, and bone mineral density both showed significant improvements.","PeriodicalId":497526,"journal":{"name":"Al-Mağallah Al-ՙilmiyyaẗ Li ʿulūm Al-Tarbiyyaẗ Al-Nawʿiyyaẗ (Print)","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135195542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
