Associations of genetic lactase non-persistence and sex with bone loss in young adulthood
Marika Laaksonen,Olli Impivaara,Harri Sievänen,Jorma Viikari,Terho Lehtimäki,Christel Lamberg-Allardt,Merja Kärkkäinen,Matti Välimäki,Jorma Heikkinen,Liisa Kröger,Heikki Kröger,Jukka S. Jurvelin,Mika Kähönen,Olli T. Raitakari +13 more
TL;DR: Bone loss in young adulthood was more common in males than in females and seemed to occur mainly at the femoral neck, however, calcium intake predicts changes in bone mass more than the lactase genotype.
Journal Article
Acoustic properties of articular cartilage under mechanical stress
TL;DR: Examination of ultrasound propagation through human, bovine and porcine articular cartilage during stress-relaxation in unconfined compression found variations in acoustic properties in loaded cartilage are related to rearrangement of the interstitial matrix, especially to that of collagen fibers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term voluntary exercise of male mice induces more beneficial effects on cancellous and cortical bone than on the collagenous matrix
Hanna Isaksson,Viivi Tolvanen,Mikko A. J. Finnilä,Jarkko Iivarinen,Antti Turunen,Tuomo S Silvast,Juha Tuukkanen,Kari Seppänen,Jari Arokoski,Pieter A.J. Brama,Jukka S. Jurvelin,Heikki J. Helminen +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that lifelong exercise training of male mice results in more beneficial effects on intact mineralized bone in both the diaphysis and epiphysis than on bone collagenous matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skin signs in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome: clinical tests and para-clinical methods.
Lars Remvig,P H Duhn,S Ullman,Jari Arokoski,Jukka S. Jurvelin,A Safi,F Jensen,S Farholt,H Hove,Birgit Juul-Kristensen +9 more
TL;DR: The reproducibility of the clinical skin tests was substantial to good, apart from the consistency measurements, and it is suggested that skin consistency is withdrawn as a diagnostic criterion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Freeze–Thaw Cycle with and without Proteolysis Inhibitors and Cryopreservant on the Biochemical and Biomechanical Properties of Articular Cartilage
TL;DR: The freeze-thawed cartilage samples appear suitable for the biochemical and biomechanical studies, and the glycosaminoglycan contents and proteoglycan structures of the cartilage were similar in all experimental groups.
