Athletes participating in sports characterized by specific loading modalities have exhibited
different levels of augmentation of bone properties; however, the extent to which these …

This cross-sectional study of adult female athletes assessed whether the apparent loading-
related differences in bone structure are primarily associated with the loading type or the …

The benefit of impact-loading activity for bone strength depends on whether the additional
bone mineral content (BMC) accrued at loaded sites is due to an increased bone size …

We investigated longitudinal changes in tibia bone strength in master power (jumping and
sprinting) and endurance (distance) athletes of both sexes. Bone mass but not cross …

Mechanical loading is thought to be a determinant of bone mass and geometry. Both ground
reaction forces and tibial strains increase with running speed. This study investigates the …

Purpose Physical activity benefits bone mass and cortical bone size. The current study
assessed the impact of chronic (≥ 10 years) physical activity on trabecular …

Strain magnitude may be more important than the number of loading cycles in controlling
bone adaptation to loading. To test this hypothesis, we performed a 12 month longitudinal …

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate bone mass in the pelvis and lower
extremities in young ice hockey players, and especially to investigate whether any …

Purpose: This study investigated the influence of different exercise types and differences in
anatomical distribution of mechanical loading patterns on bone mineral density (BMD) in …

Background: Bone stress injuries (BSIs) are common sports injuries that occur because of
an imbalance between microdamage accumulation and removal through bone remodeling …
