affecting future bone fragility diseases such as osteoporosis. However, little is known about …

Introduction We aimed to investigate whether the relationship between fat mass and bone
mineral content (BMC) is mediated by insulin, leptin, adiponectin, dehydroepiandrosterone …

The fat but fit paradox has suggested that obese individuals with good fitness levels have
lower cardiometabolic risk compared to individuals with normal weight but lower fitness …

Background The effect of obesity status on bone mineral density (BMD) in adolescents and

Purpose Previous studies have suggested that obesity defined by body mass index (BMI) is
a protective factor for bone mineral density (BMD), but have overlooked the potential …

Recent studies suggest association between body fat and childhood bone health, although
conflicting findings have also been reported. The aim of the present study was to examine …
