Influence of whole body vibration on structural properties of bone in conditions of obesity and limited mobility

Abstract

In this study we assessed the impact of high-frequency whole body vibration with acceleration of 0,3 g on the structure of the femur in in conditions of obesity and limited mobility. It is known that mechanical loads stimulate bone remodeling by reducing the apoptosis of osteoblasts and osteocytes, increasing their proliferation and differentiation. Reducing the functional load inhibits osteogenesis and activates bone resorption. mineral composites at the end of the experiment. Therefore, ex-ercises are an effective method to improve bone condition and should be used as an adjunct to pharmacological therapy for osteoporosis.
