目的：评估定期太极拳锻炼对绝经后女性负重骨骼的潜在益处。设计：病例对照研究。地点：香港大学医学院。参与者：绝经后女性（年龄范围，50-59岁），包括 17 名自选定期锻炼超过 4 年的太极拳锻炼者 (TCE)，以及 17 名年龄和性别匹配的非锻炼对照者(CON)。干预措施：不适用。主要结果指标：在基线和 12 个月后的随访中使用双能 X 射线骨密度测定法 (DXA) 测量腰椎和股骨近端的骨矿物质密度 (BMD)，并使用多层外周定量计算机断层扫描 (pQCT) 测量胫骨远端的骨密度。结果：基线结果显示 TCE 组的 BMD 显着较高（10.1%-14.8%，全部P
Objective: To evaluate the potential benefits of regular Tai Chi Chuan exercise on the weight-bearing bones of postmenopausal women.Design: Case-control study.Setting: University medical school in Hong Kong.Participants: Postmenopausal women (age range, 50-59y), including 17 self-selected regular Tai Chi Chuan exercisers (TCE) with over 4 years of regular exercise, and 17 age- and gender-matched nonexercising controls (CON).Interventions: Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures: Bone mineral density (BMD) in the lumbar spine and proximal femur was measured at baseline and at follow-up 12 months later by using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and in the distal tibia using multislice peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT).Results: Baseline results showed that the TCE group had significantly higher BMD (10.1%-14.8%, all P
