General Physical

The alteration in nerve conduction produced by MS leads to functional displacement. Specifically, this increase produces losses of muscle mass, bone mineral density (BMD) and power as well as an increase in fat mass. In general, physical exercise has shown improvements at the functional level, however, strength training seems to show the best results for these parameters. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of two power and hypertrophy training programs on BMD and potency in people with MS. Ten subjects with MS participated with a mean age of 56 years, of which eight were women and two men. The sample was divided into two groups randomly. Each group is assigned a training program randomly. BMD, power, strength and speed measurements were obtained before and after both training programs. Differences were found in the BMD variables in the hypertrophy training group (EH) and in the potency of the power training group (PE). No differences found between both groups were found for any of the other variables. Hypertrophy training reduces BMD and does not improve power, strength and speed. While power training improves potency and does not improve the body composition of this type of population.

Objective: To verify the effect of recreational soccer on bone mineral density and sarcopenia in the elderly. Methods: Fourteen elderly people aged 65.9 ± 3.4 years were selected. They were separated into two groups: the intervention group and the control group; the intervention group played recreational soccer for 12 weeks on two days of the week. Assessments were performed for bone mineral density and body muscle mass before and after the intervention. For statistical analysis, the repeated measures ANOVA with Bonferroni’s post hoc test was used. Results: After 12 weeks, there was a significant change in bone mineral density in the region of the total femur (p = 0.020). Analyzing the participants’ sarcopenia, no significant results were found after the intervention period. Conclusion: Playing recreational soccer causes a significant improvement in the total femur and maintains bone regions in the spine, whole body, and femoral neck. Also, it promotes a removal from the threshold for sarcopenia screening in the elderly.

We investigate socioeconomic, social, demographic, and biological variables that are associated with chronic stress in the body to assess whether they have an effect on bone mineral density (BMD) as an indicator of accelerated aging. Multiple regression models were derived from data in the Midlife in the United States: A National Longitudinal Study of Health and Well-Being, Waves 1 (1995–1996) and 2 (2004–2006). Three BMD variables were used as outcomes: femoral, femoral neck, and spine T scores. The sample included 333 men and women aged 34–80. Poverty and C-reactive protein were related to BMD for spine T scores, partially consistent with hypotheses. But, marital status, perceived support of a partner, and education were not associated. Friend strain was discovered to have a relationship with BMD. More variables, and from a broader context, need to be examined together to understand what affects reduced BMD, given the high costs of accelerated aging.

Objective To evaluate the responses of C-terminal telopeptide (CTX) and serum osteocalcin after the first 4 months of treatment with strontium ranelate (SR) and demonstrate their association with long-term bone density changes. Subjects and Methods A sample of 13 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis was analyzed (mean age 65 ± 7.7 years), who were treated with SR for an average of 2.56 ± 0.86 years. All patients had undergone previous treatment with bisphosphonates for an average period of 4.88 ± 2.27 years. Serum CTX and osteocalcin levels were determined before and after four months of treatment with SR. Bone mineral density in the lumbar spine and femoral neck were obtained before and after treatment with SR. Results We observed an average increase of 53.7% in the CTX levels, and 30.7% in the osteocalcin levels. The increase in bone markers was associated with a mean 4.8% increase in lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) from 0.820 to 0.860 g/cm2 ( T-score from –2.67 to –1.92; P= 0.001), after 2.5 years of treatment with SR. Conclusion These data suggest an anabolic effect of SR on postmenopausal women who were previously treated with long-term bisphosphonates.
