Most imaging methods, including peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT), are susceptible to motion artifacts particularly in...
Muscle abnormalities in osteogenesis imperfecta.
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is mainly characterized by bone fragility but muscle abnormalities have been reported both in OI mouse mod...
Whole Body Vibration Training Lowers Serum Creatine Kinase Levels in Boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
We aimed to describe the effects of whole body vibration training on serum creatine kinase and motor function in two brothers with Duch...
Determinants of bone mineral density in young Australian women; results from the Safe-D study.
The study aimed to explore determinants of bone parameters in young women. Most bone parameters were associated with height and lean ma...
Changes in muscle cross-sectional area, muscle force, and jump performance during 6 weeks of progressive whole-body vibration combined with progressive, high intensity resistance training.
OBJECTIVES: We hypothesized that progressive whole-body vibration (WBV) superimposed to progressive high intensity resistance training ...
Immediate Effect of a Single Session of Whole Body Vibration on Spasticity in Children With Cerebral Palsy.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the immediate effect of a single session of whole body vibration (WBV) on lower extremity spasticity in chil...
WHOLE-BODY VIBRATION EXERCISE IMPROVES FUNCTIONAL PARAMETERS IN PATIENTS WITH OSTEOGENESIS IMPERFECTA: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW WITH A SUITABLE APPROACH.
BACKGROUND: Patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) have abnormal bone modelling and resorption. The bone tissue adaptation and resp...
Associations of muscle force, power, cross-sectional muscle area and bone geometry in older UK men.
BACKGROUND: Ageing is associated with sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and increased fall risk, all of which contribute to increased fracture ...
PROBLEMS IN THE PREVENTION OF OSTEOPOROSIS AND THE ASSESSMENT OF BONE DENSITY
The recommendations of the WHO suggested intervention thresholds for assessment
