Spinal mobilization is commonly used in the treatment of patients with back pain, including individuals with osteoporosis. Previous data indicated that traditional predictors of skeletal failure–lateral or anteroposterior bone mineral density (BMD) by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or geometry of the spinous process or vertebral body–do not predict failure load during posteroanterior spinal...
During growth, bone strength is conferred through subtle adaptations in bone mass and geometry in response to muscle forces. Few studies have examined the changes in bone geometry, strength and the bone–muscle strength relationship across maturity in boys and girls. Our aims were to describe (i) 20-month changes in bone geometry and strength at the tibial midshaft across three maturity groups of boys...
Exercise during growth has a positive influence on bone mineral accrual, yet little is known about how bone geometry and strength adapt to loading during growth. Our primary objective was to compare changes in proximal femur bone geometry and strength between 31 prepubertal (Tanner Stage 1) boys who participated in a school-based, high-impact circuit intervention (12 min, three times a week) for 20...
