Precision Errors and Monitoring Time Interval in Pediatric Muscle Imaging and Neuromuscular Performance Assessment.
OBJECTIVES: To determine precision errors and monitoring time intervals in imaged muscle properties and neuromuscular performance, and...
Adaptability of a jump movement pattern to a non-constant force field elicited via centrifugation.
Humans are accustomed to Earth's constant gravitational acceleration of 1g. Here we assessed if complex movements such as jumps can be...
Immobilization by 21 days of bed rest results in type II collagen degradation in healthy individuals.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of 21 days of bed rest immobilization (with and without exercise and nutrition interventions) on...
Hormonal contraceptive use is associated with altered bone structural and metabolic responses to military training in women: An observational cohort study.
Military training increases tibial density and size. Female sex hormones may influence the adaption of bone to loading, but it is unkn...
Col1A-2 Mutation in Osteogenesis Imperfecta Mice Contributes to Long Bone Fragility by Modifying Cell-Matrix Organization.
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare congenital bone dysplasia generally caused by a mutation of one of the type I collagen genes an...
Sarcopenia in long-term survivors of cancer in childhood and adolescence: A cross-sectional study of calf muscle mass by peripheral quantitative computed tomography with an examination of the muscle-bone unit.
BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia, a loss of systemic skeletal muscle mass (SMM), is prevalent in childhood cancer survivors and often accompanie...
Estimation of Peak Muscle Power From a Countermovement Vertical Jump in Children and Adolescents.
Several equations to predict muscle power (MP) from vertical jump height (VJH) have been developed in adults. However, few have been ...
Automated, calibration-free quantification of cortical bone porosity and geometry in postmenopausal osteoporosis from ultrashort echo time MRI and deep learning.
BACKGROUND: Assessment of cortical bone porosity and geometry by imaging in vivo can provide useful information about bone quality tha...
Sex- and site-specific, age-related changes in bone density – a Terry collection study.
As modern populations are living longer, age-related health issues have become more common. One growing concern is the age-related bon...
