Journal ArticleDOI

An assessment of maturity from anthropometric measurements.

TL;DR: Although the cross-validation meets statistical standards for acceptance, caution is warranted with regard to implementation and it is recommended that maturity offset be considered as a categorical rather than a continuous assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measuring general levels of physical activity: preliminary evidence for the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children.

TL;DR: Preliminary support is provided for the PAQ-C as a cost efficient method of assessing general levels of children's physical activity during the school year and males were significantly more active than females.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone mineral accrual from 8 to 30 years of age: an estimation of peak bone mass.

TL;DR: Strong evidence is provided that BA plateaus 1 to 2 years earlier than BMC, substantiate the importance of the circumpubertal years for accruing bone mineral, and provides strong evidence that peak bone mass occurs by the end of the second or early in the third decade of life.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 'muscle-bone unit' during the pubertal growth spurt

TL;DR: Results are compatible with the view that bone development is driven by muscle development, although the data do not exclude the hypothesis that the two processes are independently determined by genetic mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

A longitudinal study of the relationship of physical activity to bone mineral accrual from adolescence to young adulthood

TL;DR: It was found that active adolescent males had 8-10% more adjusted BMC at the TB, TH and FN (p<0.05) in young adulthood and that active adolescents females had 9% and 10% more adjustments at the TH andFN.
