Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of training on bone mass in older adults: a systematic review.

TL;DR: This review provides an overview of intervention studies involving training and bone measurements among older adults, especially postmenopausal women, and indicates that bone-related variables can be increased, or at least the common decline in bone mass during ageing attenuated, through following specific training programmes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of a short-term whole body vibration intervention on physical fitness in elderly people.

TL;DR: In the WBV group most of the physical tests improved through the intervention while in the control group only an increment was detected in lower-body strength after 11 weeks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cortical and trabecular bone at the radius and tibia in male and female adolescents with Down syndrome : a peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) study

TL;DR: It can be believed that even with higher vBMD in determined skeletal sites, adolescents with DS are at higher risk of suffering bone fractures due to an increased fragility by lower resistance to load bending or torsion.
