      Scott, David; Johansson, Jonas; McMillan, Lachlan; Ebeling, Peter R; Nordström, Peter; Nordström, Anna Hava (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-21)
      The aim of this study was to compare bone structure parameters and likelihood of falls across European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2) sarcopenia categories. 3334 Swedish 70-year olds had appendicular lean mass (normalized to height; ALMHt), lumbar spine and total hip areal BMD (aBMD) estimated by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Volumetric BMD (vBMD) and structure at the ...

    • Mid-calf skeletal muscle density and its associations with physical activity, bone health and incident 12-month falls in older adults: The Healthy Ageing Initiative 

      Scott, David; Johansson, Jonas; McMillan, Lachlan; Ebeling, Peter R; Nordström, Anna Hava; Nordström, Peter (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-08)
      <i>Background</i> - Lower skeletal muscle density, indicating greater infiltration of adipose tissue into muscles, is associated with higher fracture risk in older adults. We aimed to determine whether mid-calf muscle density is associated with falls risk and bone health in community-dwelling older adults.<p><p> <i>Methods</i> - 2214 community-dwelling men and women who participated in the ...
