| Abstrakt: | The study objective was to assess bone quality measured by high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in competitive athletes. Medline, EMBASE and Sport Discus were searched through May 2022. Prior to submission, a follow-up database search was performed (January 2023). Studies of competitive athletes using HR-pQCT to assess bone quality were included. Athletes were aged between 14 and 45 years. Data extraction included study design and location (country), skeletal imaging modality and site, bone variables and any additional musculoskeletal-related outcome. Information identifying sports and athletes were also extracted. This review included 14 manuscripts and a total of 928 individuals (male: n=75; female: n=853). Athletes comprised 78% (n=722) of the included individuals and 93% of athletes were female. Assessment scores indicate the studies were good to fair quality. The athletes included in this review can be categorized into three groups: 1) healthy athletes, 2) athletes with compromised menstrual function (e.g., amenorrhoea), and 3) athletes with compromised bone health (e.g., bone stress injuries). When assessing bone quality using HR-pQCT, healthy competitive athletes had denser, stronger and larger bones with better microarchitecture, compared with controls. However, the same cannot be said for athletes with amenorrhoea or bone stress injuries. Competing Interests: The authors have no conflict of interest. |
