Agreement between vertical ground reaction force and ground reaction force vector in five common clinical tests.
Mechanography is an innovative method to evaluate lower-limb dynamic muscle function. This technique is generally performed on force pl...
Acute Bone Marker Responses to Whole-Body Vibration and Resistance Exercise in Young Women.
Whole-body vibration (WBV) augments the musculoskeletal effects of resistance exercise (RE). However, its acute effects on bone turnove...
Peripheral QCT sector analysis reveals early exercise-induced increases in tibial bone mineral density.
Objectives: The purpose of this controlled trial was to determine whether subtle changes in mineralization and geometry of the tibia w...
A comparison of the effect of two types of vibration exercise on the endocrine and musculoskeletal system.
Background: Whole body vibration (WBV) is a novel training intervention but a comparison of different methods of WBV has rarely been pe...
Whole body vibration exercise improves body balance and walking velocity in postmenopausal osteoporotic women treated with alendronate: Galileo and Alendronate Intervention Trail (GAIT).
A randomized controlled trial was conducted to determine the effect of 6 months of whole body vibration (WBV) exercise on physical func...
Effect of exercise on bone structural traits, physical performance and body composition in breast cancer patients – A 12-month RCT.
In this 12-month RCT, we examined whether aerobic impact exercise training (3x/week) could facilitate breast cancer survivors' recovery...
Is a small muscle mass index really detrimental for insulin sensitivity in postmenopausal women of various body composition status?
Objectives: We sought to determine if a small muscle mass index (MMI) is actually detrimental for insulin sensitivity when studying a l...
Resistive exercises, with or without whole body vibration, prevent vertebral marrow fat accumulation during 60 days of head-down tilt bed rest in men.
Fat accumulates in the bone marrow of lumbar vertebrae with bed rest. Exercise with or without whole body vibration may counter this ef...
Molecular biomarkers monitoring human skeletal muscle fibres and microvasculature following long-term bed rest with and without countermeasures.
The cellular mechanisms of human skeletal muscle adaptation to disuse are largely unknown. The aim of this study was to determine the m...
Atypical fast SERCA1a protein expression in slow myofibers and differential S-nitrosylation prevented by exercise during long term bed rest.
We monitored changes in SERCA isoform specific expression and S-nitrosylation in myofibers of lower limb soleus (SOL) and vastus later...
