The Importance of Impact Loading and the Stretch Shortening Cycle for Spaceflight Countermeasures.
Pronounced muscle and bone losses indicate that the musculoskeletal system suffers substantially from prolonged microgravity. A likely ...
Type 1 diabetes onset at young age is associated with compromised bone quality.
Women with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are at increased risk for fracture. We studied the association of T1D and young age at T1D onset (T1D ...
Blood flow restriction increases myoelectric activity and metabolic accumulation during whole-body vibration.
PURPOSE: Whole-body vibration (WBV) training is frequently applied in sports and rehabilitation with the aim of inducing beneficial fu...
Calcium and vitamin D supplementation and bone health in Marine recruits: Effect of season.
Stress fractures are common overuse injuries caused by repetitive bone loading. These fractures are of particular concern for military ...
Effects of vibration intensity on lower limb joint moments during standing.
Muscle activity and joint moment of the lower limbs can provide different information about the stimulation of controlled whole-body vi...
Evaluation of long-term functional donor-site morbidity after deep circumflex iliac crest artery bone flap harvest.
PURPOSE: Free flap surgery can be associated with donor-site morbidity. The purpose of this study was to analyze long-term functional o...
Combination of DXA and BIS body composition measurements is highly correlated with physical function-an approach to improve muscle mass assessment.
RATIONALE: Fluid volume estimates may help predict functional status and thereby improve sarcopenia diagnosis. MAIN RESULT: Bioimpedan...
The prevalence of sarcopenia and relationships between muscle and bone in ageing West-African Gambian men and women.
BACKGROUND: The rapidly rising ageing population in low and middle-income countries (LMIC) will lead to a concurrent increase in muscul...
Feasibility and safety of a 6-month exercise program to increase bone and muscle strength in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
BACKGROUND: Arthritis in childhood can be associated with muscle weakness around affected joints, low bone mass and low bone strength....
Lean mass and lower limb muscle function in relation to hip strength, geometry and fracture risk indices in community-dwelling older women.
In a population-based sample of British women aged over 70 years old, lean mass and peak lower limb muscle force were both independentl...
