Effects of turn angle and pivot foot on lower extremity kinetics during walk and turn actions.

abstract：:Maintenance of healthy bone mineral density (BMD) is important for preventing fractures in older adults. Strains experienced by bone in vivo stimulate remodeling processes, which can increase or decrease BMD. However, there has been little study of age differences in bone strains. This study examined the relative cont...
