Associations of muscle force, power, cross‐sectional muscle area and bone geometry in older UK men
BACKGROUND: Ageing is associated with sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and increased fall risk, all of which contribute to increased fracture risk. Mechanically, bone strength adapts in response to forces created by muscle contractions. Adaptations can be through changes in bone size, geometry, and bending...
