Abstract
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:sec> <jats:title>Aim</jats:title> <jats:p>Identifying risk factors for low bone stiffness index (SI) might be one crucial strategy for osteoporosis prevention. Purpose was to characterize healthy schoolchildren across tertiles of SI.</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Subject and methods</jats:title> <jats:p>In 248 girls (13.4 ± 1.9 years, BMI: 20.2 ± 4.8 kg/m<jats:sup>2</jats:sup>) and 231 boys (13.6 ± 1.7 years, BMI: 19.3 ± 3.3 kg/m<jats:sup>2</jats:sup>), the following parameters were assessed: calcaneal SI (quantitative ultrasound), body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis), Bone Healthy Eating Index (BoneHEI; food frequency questionnaire), and physical activity level (PAL; activity questionnaire). Participants were classified according to age- and sex-specific SI tertiles (low, medium, and high). Between-group comparisons were achieved by Kruskal–Wallis-<jats:italic>H</jats:italic>-tests (<jats:italic>α</jats:italic> = 0.05).</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Results</jats:title> <jats:p>Girls with low SI had significantly lower body mass (49.2 ± 16.7 vs 54.8 ± 12.2 kg; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &lt; 0.01), BMI (19.6 ± 5.4 vs 21.3 ± 3.9 kg/m<jats:sup>2</jats:sup>; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &lt; 0.0001), fat-free mass (36.3 ± 8.3 vs 39.5 ± 6.0 kg; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &lt; 0.01), and fat mass (23.7 ± 9.1 vs 26.8 ± 7.2%; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &lt; 0.05) compared to those with high SI. In boys, significant differences between low and high SI were obtained for PAL (1.49 ± 0.12 vs 1.56 ± 0.14; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &lt; 0.01). BoneHEI was not significantly different between tertiles in both sexes.</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Conclusion</jats:title> <jats:p>Girls with low body mass and boys with low PAL have a higher risk for low SI. Schoolchildren should strive for normal body mass and perform regular physical activity.</jats:p> </jats:sec>
