EFFECT OF BED REST ON BONE TURNOVER AND CARDIAC FUNCTION IN YOUNG WOMEN HOSPITAL

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。本研究将探讨AN住院患者卧床休息与骨转换之间的关系。我们还将检查研究对象的心脏状态，因为对该患者群体的基线心功能知之甚少。这是研究运动作为对抗这一人群骨质流失的潜在疗法的第一步。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The proposed study will examine the association between bed rest and bone turnover in hospitalized patients with AN. We will also examine the cardiac status of study subjects, since little is known about baseline cardiac function within this patient population. This is the first step in the investigation of exercise as a potential treatment against bone loss in this population.
