Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of physical training on bone mineral density in prepubertal girls: a comparative study between impact-loading and non-impact-loading sports.
Daniel Courteix,Eric Lespessailles,S. Loiseau Peres,P. Obert,P Germain,Claude-Laurent Benhamou +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that physical activity in childhood could be an important factor in bone mineral acquisition in prepubertal girls, but only if the sport can induce bone strains during a long-term program: gymnastics has such characteristics, unlike swimming.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol and bone: review of dose effects and mechanisms.
TL;DR: The effects of three different means of alcohol consumption are reviewed: light, heavy, and binge drinking; the roles of reduced total fat mass, increased lipid content in bone marrow, and a hypoleptinemia are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Osteocyte: the unrecognized side of bone tissue.
TL;DR: The outcome of micro-cracks in the vicinity of osteocytes may interrupt the canalicular network and trigger cell apoptosis in the immediate surrounding environment, and this apoptosis appears to transmit a message to the bone surface and activate remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fractal organization of trabecular bone images on calcaneus radiographs
Claude-Laurent Benhamou,Eric Lespessailles,G. Jacquet,Rachid Harba,Rachid Jennane,T. Loussot,D. Tourliere,William J. Ohley +7 more
TL;DR: A fractal evaluation of trabecular bone microarchitecture on calcaneus radiographs allows us to undertake population studies and to envisage longitudinal series, and to validate the use of this fractal model by checking the fractal organization of the radiographic images analyzed by the model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fractal analysis of radiographic trabecular bone texture and bone mineral density: two complementary parameters related to osteoporotic fractures.
Claude-Laurent Benhamou,S. Poupon,Eric Lespessailles,S. Loiseau,Rachid Jennane,Valérie Siroux,William J. Ohley,L. Pothuaud +7 more
TL;DR: The data have shown that the fractal analysis of texture on calcaneus radiographs can distinguish osteoporotic fracture groups from control groups and suggest that the fracture risk evaluation can be improved by adding information related to microarchitecture, derived from analysis of conventional radiographic images.
