Scientists uncovered how the protein Piezo1 translates physical activity into stronger bones, offering a path to exercise-mimicking therapies. Scientists from the Department of Medicine, School of ...
You’re probably familiar with many of the benefits of regular exercise, when done properly. From building muscle to boosting your energy and even helping your brain function better, there’s no ...
In a recent study published in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, researchers assessed the impact of high-impact exercise on femoral neck bone density and knee osteoarthritis (OA) (a ...
A study conducted at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, found that the bone mineral density at the femoral neck decreased, but the structural properties were maintained or even slightly improved ...
Objective To elicit expert opinion and gain consensus on specific exercise intervention parameters to minimise hip bone mineral density (BMD) loss following traumatic lower limb amputation. Methods In ...
Background Lower-limb amputation reduces bone mineral density (BMD) on the amputated side (1). Exercise interventions are effective in improving BMD in able-bodied individuals (2). However, similar ...
