- Mathematical modelling for assessing fracture risk associated with osteoporosisPublication . Monteiro, D.; Pereira, Ana Monteiro; Batista, Maria do Carmo; Fonseca, E.M.M.Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease, characterized by low boné mass and by changing the boné microstructure. According to the Portuguese Society of Osteoporosis and Metabolic Boné Diseases (SPODOM), this disease affects about 500,000 people in Portugal.

- The effects of combined training on bone metabolic markers in postmenopausal womenPublication . Pereira, Ana Monteiro; Costa, Aldo M.; Palmeira-de-Oliveira, A.; Soares, João F.; Monteiro, A.M.; Williams, J.H.H.Exercise plays an important role in maximizing and subsequent reduction of the maximum rates of bone loss. The purpose of this study was to determine whether 16 weeks of combined exercise in postmenopausal would affect bone metabolism. Equipment and methods. — Eleven participants (53.1 [±4.0] years) performed combined training that consisted of 60—75% of 1 RM, 2—3 sets of 10—15 repetitions in specific machines and 20—30 min of cardiovascular exercises using an step platform (55—80% FCreserve). Cross-linked N-terminal telopeptides of type I collagen (NTX) was used to analyze bone resorption and serum alkaline phos-phatase (ALP) to analyze bone absorption.
