Osteocytes play a critical role in maintaining bone homeostasis and in regulating skeletal
response to hormones and mechanical loading. Substantial evidence have demonstrated …

In the last few years, estimating ground reaction forces by means of wearable sensors has
come to be a challenging research topic paving the way to kinetic analysis and sport …

Background Exercise is widely recommended to reduce osteoporosis, falls and related
fragility fractures, but its effect on whole bone strength has remained inconclusive. The …

Osteoporotic fractures are caused by both cortical thinning and trabecular bone loss. Both
are seen to be important for bone fragility. The relative contributions of cortical versus …

Background: Incompetence of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is an integral
factor in patellofemoral instability. Reconstruction of this structure is gaining increasing …

Aging diminishes bone formation engendered by mechanical loads, but the mechanism for
this impairment remains unclear. Because Wnt signaling is required for optimal loading …

Osteoporosis is an age-related disease, characterised by low bone mineral density (BMD)
and compromised bone geometry and microarchitecture, leading to reduced bone strength …

We compared the effects of exercise intensity (EI) on bone metabolism during and for 4 days
after acute, weight-bearing endurance exercise. Ten males [mean±SD maximum oxygen …

Background Jumping exercise is frequently regarded as an optimum strategy for increasing
pubertal bone growth, but its role in promoting or preserving adult bone mineral density …

Objective. Examine the effects of exercise on femoral neck (FN) and lumbar spine (LS) bone
mineral density (BMD) in premenopausal women. Methods. Meta‐analysis of randomized …
