Abstract:: The reduction in mechanical load imparted on the body during spaceflight presents unique physiological challenges. One detrimental and seemingly unavoidable response to microgravity is rapid bone loss. This adaptation is hazardous not only to astronaut health, but to the success of long-duration exploration-class missions. Skeletal adaptation to spaceflight in astronauts...

Creator:: Welch, John D.
Abstract:: For more than 30 years, researchers have investigated the effects of whole body vibration (WBV) platforms on athletic performance. WBV is a modality in which an individual stands on a vibrating platform to obtain performance effects. Frequency and amplitude of the vibration are the commonly adjusted parameters. The use of...

Creator:: Atanasov, Atanas A.
Abstract:: Excessive environmental vibrations can have deleterious effects in a variety of animals. Despite the potentially detrimental effects vibrations may have on animal health and experimental results, they remain poorly understood in the animal laboratory setting. This study investigates the consequences of excessive train vibrations on the breeding success of laboratory...

Creator:: Herron, Jacquelyn Camille
Abstract:: Introduction: A bone deficit is found to persist five years following a hip fracture and 10 years post tibial fracture in adults. We examined the effect of whole body vibration (Vib) as a means for enhancing whole body composition and bone recovery following hindlimb unloading (HU) of adult female rats....

Full Text:: Effects of Whole Body Vibration on Bone Recovery Following Hindlimb Unloading of Adult Female Rats

Creator:: Almstedt Shoepe, Hawley Chase
Abstract:: Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease affecting 44 million Americans. A primary strategy to prevent osteoporosis is to develop a high peak bone mass in youth. Oral Contraceptives (OCs) alter hormones in women and could affect bone mass development. The interaction between OCs and skeletal mineralization is poorly understood. PURPOSE: Our...
