Research from University of Zagreb reveals new findings on bone research.
"It is known that different skeletal sites have different peak bone mass at different times and lose bone at different rates. The purpose of the study was to assess bone mineral density (BMD) in healthy female student population (N = 220), aged 18-25 yr and to analyze whether young women of that age have already started to lose the bone mass at the trabecular and cortical parts of skeleton," scientists in Zagreb, Croatia report (see also Bone Research).
"The influence of dietary intake and physical activity on their bone mass was also assessed. BMD was measured, using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry technique, in spine, proximal femur, and distal third of the radius and in total body. Significant negative correlation between age and bone mass was found in all skeletal regions (p
The researchers concluded: "Body weight and physical activity were the most significant positive predictors of bone density in all measured sites."
Cvijetic and colleagues published their study in the Journal of Clinical Densitometry (Peak bone density in Croatian women: Variations at different skeletal sites. Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2008;11(2):260-265).
