Bone steady-state is established at reduced bone strength after spinal cord injury: a longitudinal study using peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT)
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is associated with a marked and rapid sublesional bone loss. So far, reports about the time course of adaptive...
The effect of menarcheal age on anthropometric, limb length, and bone measures in Hutterite and non-Hutterite women
The age women reach menarche may affect bone length and mass. Some studies show an earlier menarcheal age (MA) results in a shorter sta...
Clinical use of quantitative computed tomography and peripheral quantitative computed tomography in the management of osteoporosis in adults: the 2007 ISCD Official Positions
The International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) has developed Official Positions for the clinical use of dual-energy X-ray a...
Ground reaction force and spatiotemporal measurements of the gait of the mouse
Measurement of ground reaction forces with force plates permits quantification of the subtle changes in movement associated with a vari...
Force plate for measuring the ground reaction forces in small animal locomotion
The importance of kinetic force plate studies of locomotion in small animals has grown recently with the increasing use of rodent model...
Leisure physical activity and the risk of fracture in men
BACKGROUND: Data from previous studies are inconsistent, and it is therefore uncertain whether, to what extent, and at what level leisu...
Follicle-stimulating hormone does not impact male bone mass in vivo or human male osteoclasts in vitro.
Bone loss in the elderly is mainly caused by osteoclast-induced bone resorption thought to be causally linked to the decline in estroge...
