risk; elderly; exercise; objectives; muscles; body composition; bone density; quality of life; psychomotor development; diabetes
Abstract:
... Physiological systems decline with age. Such declines may be the result of aging itself or physical deconditioning. Evidence suggests that the degree to which decrements occur with aging may be modifiable with physical activity. The elderly adapt to exercise programs at a generally reduced rate. Thus reduced activity, coupled with diabetes, may present unique clinical needs. In the design of exerc ...

Abstract:
... Massive, toxic doses of vitamin D have been shown to cause nephrocalcinosis in rats, but the effect of this vitamin within its range of fluctuation in commercial rat diets was unknown. Therefore, in two experiments with young female rats, the effect on nephrocalcinosis of a moderately increased level of vitamin D in the diet was studied, that is 5000 IU/kg versus the recommended concentration of 1 ...

Abstract:
... The mass of a bone is given by its volume and its apparent density-mass per unit external volume. Most measurements of so-called density are of mass incompletely normalized by some index of bone size. Genes control about 60% to 75% of the variance of peak bone mass/density and a much smaller proportion of the variance in rate of loss. Genetic influences on bone mass/density are mediated in large p ...

Fossil shellfish powder (FS) and Ezo giant scallop shell powder (EG) were rendered soluble with lactate and citrate under decompression (FSEx and EGEx, respectively) and we examined the effects of lactate-citrate solubilization of FS and EG on mineral absorption, tissue mineral contents, serum biochemical indices and bone mineral density (BMD) in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. The apparent absorption ...

Abstract:
... The whole genome scan for quantitative trait loci (QTLs) specifying peak bone mass was performed with the F₂ intercrosses of SAMP6, an established murine model of senile osteoporosis, exhibiting a significantly lower peak bone mass, and SAMP2, exhibiting a higher peak bone mass. Cortical thickness index (CTI), a parameter of bone mass of femurs, was measured in 488 F₂ progeny at 4 months of age, w ...

A randomized complete block design with a factorial arrangement of 2 x 3 was used with eight replicates (n = 2,400; 50 chicks per replicate) per treatment. Diets were formulated to contain two levels of nonphytate P (NPP; 0.225 and 0.325%) and three levels of phytase [0, 300, and 6 ...

At 110% P (control; also 110% of NRC Ca), phytase was without effect. At 73% of NPP (100% Ca), without phytase, performance was similar to the control; with phytase, performance was equivalent, and in some s ...

Abstract:
... Osteoporosis is a complex, multi-factorial condition characterized by reduced bone mass and impaired micro-architectural structure, leading to an increased susceptibility to fractures. Although most of the bone strength (including bone mass and quality) is genetically determined, many other factors (nutritional, environmental and life-style) also influence bone. Nutrition is important modifiable f ...
