Bone mass of female dance students prior to professional dance training: A cross-sectional study

Amorim T., Metsios G.S., Wyon M., Nevill A.M., Flouris A.D., Maia J., Teixeira E., Machado J.C., Marques F., Koutedakis Y. (2017)

Background Professional dancers are at risk of developing low bone mineral density (BMD). However, whether low BMD phenotypes already exist in pre-vocational dance students is relatively unknown. Aim To cross-sectionally ...

Endocrine parameters in association with bone mineral accrual in young female vocational ballet dancers

Amorim T., Metsios G.S., Flouris A.D., Nevill A., Gomes T.N., Wyon M., Marques F., Nogueira L., Adubeiro N., Jamurtas A.Z., Maia J., Koutedakis Y. (2019)

Summary: Less is known on bone mass gains in dancers involved in vocational dance training. The present study found that, as young vocational dancers progress on their professional training, their bone health remains ...

Imaging of impingement syndromes around the hip joint

Vassalou E.E., Zibis A.H., Klontzas M.E., Karantanas A.H. (2017)

Impingement syndromes are increasingly recognised as significant causes of hip pain and dysfunction. A broad spectrum of intraarticular and extraarticular conditions has been implicated in their pathophysiology. Physical ...

The Impact of Sport Participation on Bone Mass and Geometry in Male Adolescents

Vlachopoulos D., Barker A.R., Williams C.A., Arngrímsson S.A., Knapp K.M., Metcalf B.S., Fatouros I.G., Moreno L.A., Gracia-Marco L. (2017)

Purpose Exercise is an effective approach for developing bone mass and adolescence is a key period to optimize bone health. However, sports-specific training may have different effects on bone outcomes. This study examined ...

Longitudinal Adaptations of Bone Mass, Geometry, and Metabolism in Adolescent Male Athletes: The PRO-BONE Study

Vlachopoulos D., Barker A.R., Ubago-Guisado E., Fatouros I.G., Knapp K.M., Williams C.A., Gracia-Marco L. (2017)

Adolescence is a crucial period for bone development, and exercise can enhance bone acquisition during this period of life. However, it is not known how the different loading sports practiced can affect bone acquisition ...

Longitudinal determinants of 12-month changes on bone health in adolescent male athletes

Ubago-Guisado E., Vlachopoulos D., Fatouros I.G., Deli C.K., Leontsini D., Moreno L.A., Courteix D., Gracia-Marco L. (2018)

Summary: We identified the determinants of 12-month changes of areal bone mineral density (aBMD), hip geometry and trabecular bone score (TBS) in adolescent male athletes. Changes in region-specific lean mass and the type ...

Osteoid Osteoma of the Femoral Neck: Use of the Half-Moon Sign in MRI Diagnosis

Klontzas, M. E.; Zibis, A. H.; Karantanas, A. H. (2015)

OBJECTIVE. Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor that is commonly located in the proximal femur. Although CT is helpful in the diagnosis of osteoid osteoma, patients in whom the clinical presentation of the tumor is ...

Physical activity may be a potent regulator of bone turnover biomarkers in healthy girls during preadolescence

Searching for the ‘winner’ hip fracture patient: the effect of modifiable and non-modifiable factors on clinical outcomes following hip fracture surgery

Makridis K.G., Badras L.S., Badras S.L., Karachalios T.S. (2021)

Background: Various factors, other than the quality of surgery, may influence clinical outcomes of hip fracture patients. We aimed to evaluate the relative impact of several factors on functional outcome, quality of life, ...

Similar femoral growth and deformity with one screw versus two smooth pins for slipped capital femoral epiphysis
