Relation between body composition and bone mineral density in young undregraduate students with different nutritional status

Abstract: Objective To investigate the relationship between total and segmental body fat, bone mineral density and bone mineral content in undergraduate students stratified according to nutritional status.Methods The study included 45 male undergraduate students aged between 20 and 30 years. Total and segmental body composition, bone mineral density and bone mineral content assessments were performed using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Subjects were allocated into three groups (eutrophic, overweight and obese).Resul… Show more

“…According to Rodrigues-Filho et al, 1 maintenance of bone mineral density (BMD) is very important to prevent osteoporosis, which is characterized by an imbalance between the activity of the osteoblastic and osteoclastic cells; in other words, the matrix and the bone minerals are lost due to excessive bone resorption in comparison with formation.…”

“…In order for adequate bone mineralization to occur, three interrelated factors must be present: the levels of circulating hormones that act in the process of calcification, mechanical load imposed on the skeleton, and adequate intake and production of calcium and vitamin D. 1 , 2 …”

“…The comparative contribution of the body fat and LM (or fat-free mass) to BMD variation has been controversial based on the original research findings available. Some studies 12–14 have reported that LM, not FM, is associated with bone mass, whereas others 5 , 15 have found that FM, not LM, is important in the determination of BMD. Whereas some have indicated that both FM and LM can equally serve as a predicting factor for BMD.…”

“…O IMC correlacionou-se positivamente com a DMO, sendo os pacientes com osteoporose apresentavam um IMC significativamente menor do que aqueles com osteopenia. Esses dados são concordantes com a literatura [26][27][28][29] , que indica que o excesso de peso, tanto devido a gordura corporal como pelos músculos esqueléticos, estimula a osteogênese ao exercer força mecânica sobre os ossos [30][31] .…”
