Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces severe losses of trabecular and cortical volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), which cannot be discriminated with conventional dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) analysis. The objectives were to: (i) determine the effects of SCI on areal BMD (aBMD) and vBMD determined by advanced 3D-DXA-based methods at various femoral regions and (ii) model the profiles of 3D-DXA-derived parameters with the time since injury. Eighty adult males with SCI and 25 age-matched able-bodied (AB) controls were enrolled in this study. Trabecular and cortical vBMD, cortical thickness and derived strength parameters were assessed by 3D-SHAPER® software at various femoral subregions. Individuals with SCI had significantly lower integral vBMD, trabecular vBMD, cortical vBMD, cortical thickness and derived bone strength parameters (p < 0.001 for all) in total proximal femur compared with AB controls. These alterations were approximately to the same degree for all three femoral subregions, and the difference between the two groups tended to be greater for cortical vBMD than trabecular vBMD. There were minor differences according to the lesion level (paraplegics vs tetraplegics) for all 3D-DXA-derived parameters. For total proximal femur, the decreasing bone parameters tended to reach a new steady state after 5.1 years for integral vBMD, 7.4 years for trabecular vBMD and 9.2 years for cortical vBMD following SCI. At proximal femur, lower vBMD (integral, cortical and trabecular) and cortical thickness resulted in low estimated bone strength in individuals with SCI. It remains to be demonstrated whether these new parameters are more closely associated with fragility fracture than aBMD.

Abstract
Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs) was first introduced in 2014 by the International Olympic Committee's expert writing panel, identifying a syndrome of deleterious health and performance outcomes experienced by female and male athletes exposed to low energy availability (LEA; inadequate energy intake in relation to exercise energy expenditure). Since the 2018 REDs consensus, there have been >170 original research publications advancing the field of REDs science, including emerging data demonstrating the growing role of low carbohydrate availability, further evidence of the interplay between mental health and REDs and more data elucidating the impact of LEA in males. Our knowledge of REDs signs and symptoms has resulted in updated Health and Performance Conceptual Models and the development of a novel Physiological Model. This Physiological Model is designed to demonstrate the complexity of either problematic or adaptable LEA exposure, coupled with individual moderating factors, leading to changes in health and performance outcomes. Guidelines for safe and effective body composition assessment to help prevent REDs are also outlined. A new REDs Clinical Assessment Tool-Version 2 is introduced to facilitate the detection and clinical diagnosis of REDs based on accumulated severity and risk stratification, with associated training and competition recommendations. Prevention and treatment principles of REDs are presented to encourage best practices for sports organisations and clinicians. Finally, methodological best practices for REDs research are outlined to stimulate future high-quality research to address important knowledge gaps.

Abstract
Cortical and trabecular volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), cortical thickness and surface BMD (sBMD, density-to-thickness ratio) were analyzed in the proximal femur of elite female football players and artistic swimmers using three-dimensional dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (3D-DXA) software and compared to sedentary controls. Football players had significantly higher (p<0.05) vBMD (mg/cm3) in the trabecular (263±44) and cortical femur (886±69) than artistic swimmers (224±43 and 844±89) and sedentary controls (215±51 and 841±85). Football players had also higher (p<0.05) cortical thickness (2.12±0.19 mm) and sBMD (188±22 mg/cm2) compared to artistic swimmers (1.85±0.15 and 156±21) and sedentary controls (1.87±0.16 and 158±23). Artistic swimmers did not show significant differences in any parameter analyzed for 3D-DXA when compared to sedentary controls. The 3D-DXA modeling revealed statistical differences in cortical thickness and vBMD between female athletes engaged in weight-bearing (football) and non-weight bearing (swimming) sports and did not show differences between the non-weight bearing sport and the sedentary controls. 3D-DXA modeling could provide insight into bone remodeling in the sports field, allowing evaluation of femoral trabecular and cortical strength from standard DXA scans.

Modification of bone mineral density, bone geometry and volumetric BMD in young women with obesity. Bone 2021; 150:116005.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most obese women with low-trauma fractures present normal areal bone mineral density (aBMD), suggesting that other bone parameters are more determinant for fracture risk in these patients. OBJECTIVES (i) Determine the effects of obesity in young women on areal bone mineral density (aBMD), bone geometry, strength, and volumetric BMD determined by advanced DXA-based methods; (ii) model the profiles of bone parameters for each population with age; and (iii) determine the factors related to body composition (i.e. lean tissue mass and fat mass) potentially implicated in the "bone adaptation" in the femoral region. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Two hundred and twenty adolescent and young women from 18 to 35 years old were enrolled in this study: 128 patients with obesity and 92 age-matched (±6 months) normal-weight controls. aBMD was determined with DXA, whereas hip geometry and strength parameters were assessed by hip structural analysis (HSA) and volumetric BMD by 3D-SHAPER® software. RESULTS Compared with controls, subjects with obesity presented significantly higher aBMD at all bone sites, but the difference was greater at hip compared with lumbar spine or radius. Bone size estimates (i.e. cortical thickness), as well as strength estimates (i.e. cross-sectional area) were higher at all femoral subregions including femoral neck, intertrochanteric region and femoral shaft in young women with obesity. In whole proximal femur and all femoral compartments, vBMD was also higher in subjects with obesity, but the difference between groups was greater for cortical vBMD compared with trabecular vBMD. When hip bone parameters were modelled for each group from individual values, maximal values were reached between 20 and 26 years in both groups but, whatever the age, subjects with obesity presented higher values than controls. In both groups, lean body mass (LBM) was the parameter most positively associated with the greatest number of bone parameters studied. CONCLUSION Our study confirmed that young women with obesity presented higher aBMD, better hip geometry and greater strength compared with normal-weight controls. Additionally, cortical and trabecular compartments measured by 3D-SHAPER® were favourably and concomitantly modified. However, it remains to be demonstrated whether the evaluation of these new parameters would provide better prediction of fracture risk in this population than aBMD.

Abstract
Children with cerebral palsy (CP) have motor impairments that make it challenging for them to participate in standard physical activity (PA) interventions. There is a need to evaluate adapted PA interventions for this population. Dance can promote coordination, posture, muscle strength, motor learning, and executive functioning. This pilot study evaluated the feasibility and the effects of a new therapeutic ballet intervention specifically designed for children with CP. Methods: Eight children with CP (9-14 y/o; 75% female) participated in a 6-week therapeutic ballet intervention. Outcomes were measured in multiple domains, including body composition (DXA), muscle strength (hand-grip dynamometer), habitual physical activity, gait and selective motor control functions, and executive functioning. Follow-up assessments of habitual physical activity, gait, and executive functioning were completed 4 to 5 weeks post-intervention. Results: Five of the eight participants were overfat or obese based on DXA percentage of body fat. All participants were below the 50th percentile for their age and gender for bone density. Four participants showed a trend to improve hand-grip strength in one hand only, while one improved in both hands. There were significant improvements in gait across time points (pre, post, and follow-up), specifically in time of ambulation (X pre = 4.36, X post = 4.22, X follow-up = 3.72, d = 0.056, p = 0.02), and in step length (cm) on the right: X pre = 48.29, X post = 50.77, X follow-up = 52.11, d = 0.22, p = 0.027, and left stride: X pre = 96.29, X post = 102.20, X follow-up = 104.20, d = 0.30, p = 0.027, indicating gait changes in bilateral lower extremities. There was improvement in inhibitory control (d = 0.78; 95% Confidence Limit = ±0.71, p < 0.05) with large individual responses primarily among those above the mean at baseline. Conclusions: Therapeutic ballet may prove to be a useful intervention to promote physiological and cognitive functions in children with CP. Results demonstrated feasibility of the physical, physiological, and cognitive assessments and suggested improvements in participants' gait and inhibitory control with large individual responses. Modifications to personalize the intervention may be needed to optimize positive outcomes. Clinical Trial Registration: www.ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier: NCT03681171.
