Whole body vibration training in patients with COPD: A systematic review.
In recent years, several studies have shown that whole body vibration training (WBVT) may be a beneficial training mode in a variety of...
Cross-sectional fat area at the forearm in children and adolescents.
BACKGROUND:
Cross-sectional fat area (FA) and muscle area have been recently used to describe local body composition at the forearm in ...
Effects of five days of bed rest with intermittent centrifugation on neurovestibular function.
OBJECTIVES: We tested whether intermittent short-radius centrifugation was effective for mitigating alteration in balance and gait foll...
Lower-extremity muscle atrophy and fat infiltration after chronic spinal cord injury.
BACKGROUND: Atrophy and fatty-infiltration of lower-extremity muscle after spinal cord injury (SCI) predisposes individuals to metaboli...
Measurement of muscle and fat in postmenopausal women: precision of previously reported pQCT imaging methods.
Peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) imaging has been used to quantify muscle area and density as well as intermuscular a...
Adolescence physical activity is associated with higher tibial pQCT bone values in adulthood after 28-years of follow-up – The Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study.
High peak bone mass and strong bone phenotype are known to be partly explained by physical activity during growth but there are few pro...
Alterations in bone mineral density and lower extremity lean mass after hip arthroscopy in a professional female Ironman triathlete: a case study.
INTRODUCTION: Femoroacetabular impingement is a pathomechanical condition of the hip, which is often treated through arthroscopic tech...
Analysis of the independent power of age-related, anthropometric and mechanical factors as determinants of the structure of radius and tibia in normal adults. A pQCT study.
To compare the independent influence of mechanical and non-mechanical factors on bone features, multiple regression analyses were perf...
Effects of whole-body vibration on acute bone turnover marker responses to resistance exercise in young men.
OBJECTIVE: We investigated acute bone turnover marker (BTM) responses to high-intensity resistance exercise with and without whole-body...
Influence of isolated or simultaneous application of electromyostimulation and vibration on leg blood flow.
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to analyze the acute effects of isolated or simultaneously applied whole-body vibration (WBV) and el...
