| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Whole body vibration (WBV) has the anabolic effects. In this study, we examined the effectiveness of noise-like vibration in preventing bone atrophy under disuse conditions and in promoting bone defect repair under estrogen-deficient conditions using mouse models. Noise-like WBV reduced the disuse-induced loss of cancellous bone compared with sine WBV and enlarged the medullary space without affecting cortical thickness. There was no effect of noise-like WBV on the amount of bone formation in defect repair; however, it increased the elastic modulus of regenerated bone. Furthermore, with concurrent use of parathyroid hormone, the new bone hardness became elevated. These results suggest the noise-like vibrational mode is favorable for enhancing the anabolic effect of WBV.
