ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to overview recent bone loading measurements in physical activity, determine their validity and reliability, and recommend future research directions. A systematic search in three major databases was performed using combinations from a set of keywords, and the identified studies were selected using predetermined criteria. The final review included 29 bone loading measurement studies: seven on bone loading scales, nine on cross validation using those scales, six on accelerometer-based loading classification, and seven on estimating ground reaction force. Most validity coefficients were low, although they ranged from not valid to high. Few studies examined the measurements’ reliability. While bone loading questionnaires have historically been used in practice, most of their validity coefficients were low and few examined reliability. Most acceleration-based measurements offered moderate to high validity but were limited to laboratory settings. Validation studies for wearable devices to measure bone loading in free-living settings are urgently needed.

摘要

这项研究的目的是概述在体育活动中最近的骨负荷测量，确定其有效性和可靠性，并建议未来的研究方向。使用来自一组关键字的组合在三个主要数据库中进行系统搜索，并使用预定标准选择已鉴定的研究。最终的评审包括29项骨负荷测量研究：七项关于骨负荷量表，九项关于使用这些量表的交叉验证，六项基于加速度计的负荷分类以及七项关于估计地面反作用力。大多数有效性系数都很低，尽管范围从无效到高。很少有研究检查测量的可靠性。尽管历史上一直在实践中使用骨骼负荷调查表，它们的大多数有效性系数都很低，而检验的可靠性却很少。大多数基于加速度的测量都提供了中度到高度的有效性，但仅限于实验室环境。迫切需要对可穿戴设备进行测量以在自由生活环境中测量骨骼负荷的验证研究。
