Summary: The study identified a positive association between higher body weight, BMI, AC, %BF, and adequate serum vitamin D levels with increased bone mineral density. In older adults, BMI and serum 25(OH)-D levels were protective factors against osteopenia/osteoporosis.

Summary: Sleeve gastrectomy leads to a decrease in femoral neck and total hip bone mineral density (BMD) in both women and men. Changes in body composition are associated with BMD loss at different time points and bone sites.

Summary: This study investigated the association between baseline FSH levels and subsequent bone mass loss or changes in body composition in older adults. The results showed that in older adults, FSH levels are not associated with changes in bone mass or body composition.

Summary: In older postmenopausal women, higher FSH levels are associated with higher BMA, lower BMD, and lower fat and lean mass, independent of estradiol and testosterone levels. No significant association was found between FSH levels and any outcome in men. Longitudinal studies are needed to further understand the underlying mechanisms.

Summary: This review evaluates the body composition and bone health evidence in jockeys and assesses the methods and criteria used for assessment. The study found that jockeys today are taller and heavier, with male jockeys having increased fat mass. However, the bone status of jockeys remains a concern and further research is needed.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the association between phase angle (PhA) and bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with CKD stage 5 (CKD5), and to determine the influence of age on BMD. The results showed that PhA and age were independently associated with FN-BMD and T-score. The effect of PhA on FN-BMD differed between elderly and young patients.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the relationship between bone mass and lean mass (LM) and fat mass (FM) in normal-weight and overweight adolescents. The results showed that only LM was associated with bone mass in both normal-weight and overweight adolescents. LM was found to be the main predictor of bone mass in these groups.

Summary: This study investigated the correlation between body composition, fractures, and telomere length (TL). The results indicated that TL was positively and negatively associated with bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) in different body parts. TL was also found to be related to the occurrence of wrist and spine fractures, and this correlation showed some sex specificity. Further research is needed to validate these associations in the skull, upper limbs, and wrists.

Summary: Multicomponent exercise programs can improve body composition in community-dwelling aged women, but the effects may be lost after the exercise program concludes. It is important to avoid detraining periods to maintain normal body composition.

Summary: This study explores the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition in children of different weight categories. The results show that BMD is higher in obese children compared to normal weight children, which can be attributed to their greater lean mass rather than excess body fat. However, a higher fat mass in obese children is associated with lower lumbar spine BMD. Lean mass is directly correlated with BMD in all weight groups and is the most important predictor of BMD.

Summary: This study evaluated the intra- and inter-center variability of body composition measurements between Hologic Discovery models, finding good stability and accuracy within centers but significant variability between centers.Cross calibration and corrective factors are needed for multicentric studies adjustment.

Summary: This 24-week study evaluated the effects of two interactive cognitive-motor programs on community dwellers at risk of falling. The findings showed that both programs had positive impacts on body composition, lower-body strength, and processing speed, and successfully reduced the fall rate.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate whether central adiposity or inflammatory status contribute to ethnic differences in bone mineral density (BMD). The study found that despite adjustment for body composition, central adiposity, and inflammation, ethnic differences in BMD still existed. Additionally, ethnic differences were observed in the relationship between BMI, LMI or VAT mass and lumbar spine BMD in women.
