Abstract

This study investigated the association between energy and macronutrient intake and bone health in 63 adolescents of both sexes who participated in volleyball, track and field, or swimming. Bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD) of the total body less head (TBLH), lumbar spine (L1-L4), and femoral neck were assessed using DXA. Bone geometry parameters, including cross-sectional area (CSA), cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), and section modulus, were estimated. Nutritional intake was evaluated through 24-h dietary recalls. Multiple linear regression was performed adjusting for sex, maturity, body mass index, sports discipline, and total moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (Model 1), with further adjustments for calcium intake (Model 2) and total energy intake (Model 3). Energy, protein, and total as well as fractional lipid intake (particularly monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids) were predictors of BMD at TBLH, L1-L4, and femoral neck. These associations persisted in Model 2 but were attenuated in Model 3. Total lipid intake remained a predictor of BMC at TBLH and L1-L4 across all models, whereas energy and protein intakes were associated with BMC at L1-L4 in Models 1 and 2. Femoral neck BMC was associated with energy, protein, and total lipid only in Model 2. Both CSA and CSMI showed positive associations with total lipid intake, and CSA was associated with energy and protein intakes. No significant associations were found between carbohydrate or fiber and bone parameters. This study highlights energy, protein, and lipid intake as important factors in bone health among adolescent athletes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
