  • Title: [Bone architecture and strength on unloading].
    Author: Endo I, Matsumoto T.
    Journal: Clin Calcium; 2013 Jul; 23(7):1013-9. PubMed ID: 23811590.
    Abstract:
    The bone loss due to space flight or prolonged bed rest observes early stage of unloading and causes both decreased bone formation and increased bone resorption. Mechanical unloading induced not only both tarbecular and cortical bone loss but also greater decline bone structure in weight-bearing bone. These findings and further examination concern about pathophysiolosy will allow for better understanding of unloading-associated bone loss and for development of effective countermeasures.
