PURPOSE: Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a chronic and life-threatening eating disorder that can have a considerable negative impact on the g...
Seasonal Difference in Bone Characteristics and Body Composition of Elite Speed Skaters.
We investigated the changes in bone characteristics and body composition of elite speed skaters across two competitive seasons. Twelve ...
Assessment of Bone and Muscle Measurements by Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography in Geriatric Patients.
The loss of bone and muscle mass increases the risk of osteoporotic fractures. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) loses sensitivity...
The application of finite element modelling based on clinical pQCT for classification of fracture status.
Fracture risk assessment using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) frequently fails to diagnose osteoporosis amongst individuals wh...
Suboptimal bone status for adolescents with low motor competence and developmental coordination disorder-It’s sex specific.
BACKGROUND: Australian adolescents with low motor competence (LMC) have higher fracture rates and poorer bone health compared to Europe...
Changes in bone microarchitecture following kidney transplantation – beyond bone mineral density.
Bone disease in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) is characterised by bone mineral density (BMD) loss but bone microarchitecture chan...
Relative contributions of lean and fat mass to bone strength in young Hispanic and non-Hispanic girls.
BACKGROUND: With the high prevalence of childhood obesity, especially among Hispanic children, understanding how body weight and its co...
Changes in pediatric DXA measures of musculoskeletal outcomes and correlation with quantitative CT following treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
We previously reported significant gains in pQCT measures of tibia trabecular bone mineral density (BMD) and cortical structure followi...
Could bioelectric impedance spectroscopy (BIS) measured appendicular intracellular water serve as a lean mass measurement in sarcopenia definitions? A pilot study.
DXA lean mass measurement for sarcopenia diagnosis is not always possible. Bioelectric impedance spectroscopy (BIS), a portable technol...
Physical activity, but not sedentary time, influences bone strength in late adolescence.
Physical activity is essential for optimal bone strength accrual, but we know little about interactions between physical activity, sede...
