Bone mineral density and its relationship with ground reaction force characteristics during gait in young adults with Prader-Willi Syndrome

Bone mineral density and its relationship with ground reaction force characteristics during gait in young adults with Prader-Willi Syndrome

Introduction: The incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis is of concern in adults with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). Walking generates reaction forces that could stimulate bone mineralization and is popular in people with PWS. This study compared bone parameters and ground reaction forces (GRF) duri...
