Aim: To investigate the difference in non‐weight‐bearing effects on bone mineral density (BMD) between trunk and peripheral fat mass in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Methods: Subjects were 123 amenorrheic PCOS women with right side dominance. Age, height, body weight, and body mass index were recorded. Trunk, peripheral (extremities), trunk–leg fat ratio as an index of body fat distribution,...
Objectives: To investigate whether the strength of correlation of lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) with other regions differs with age. Methods: Subjects were 336 premenopausal women aged 20-49 years and 218 postmenopausal women aged 50-69 years with right-side dominance. Age, height, weight, and years since menopause (YSM) were recorded. Subjects were classified into five subgroups at 10-year...
Objectives: To investigate whether the relative contribution of body composition (lean and fat mass component) to postmenopausal bone mineral density (BMD) differs between women participating in physical exercise and sedentary women. Methods: Subjects were 45 postmenopausal women participating in regular physical exercise and 89 sedentary controls aged 50-60 years. Baseline characteristics included...
Objective: This study was to investigate whether the effect of lean and fat mass component on bone mineral density (BMD) differs between pre- and postmenopausal women. Materials and methods: Subjects were 360 pre- and 193 postmenopausal Japanese women with right side dominance. Age, height, and years since menopause (YSM, in postmenopausal women) were recorded. Body fat and lean body mass were measured...
Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the relative contribution of aging and menopause to the changes in lean and fat mass in segmental regions. Materials and methods: Subjects were 365 pre- and 201 postmenopausal Japanese women aged between 20 and 70 years old. Age, height, weight, body mass index (BMI, Wt/Ht 2 ), age at menopause, years since menopause (YSM), and menopausal...
