“…1 There is growing evidence suggesting that not only anthropometric factors, hypertension, 2 diabetes, 3 obesity, 4 and physical activity 5 but also sleep duration 6,7,8 are implicated in decreased bone mineral density (BMD) in elderly. The association between sleep duration and osteoporosis has been recently studied with conflicting results, 9,10 with some studies stressing the independent risk of short sleep for OS and others reporting an independent risk in long sleepers.…”

“…Furthermore, the chosen method was logistically preferable to the use of interview-based assessments, due to the large number of participants [40]. The use of accelerometers to objectively measure physical activity allowed data collection for only 1 week, although this approach may be preferable to the assessment of self-recalled physical activity, considering the effects of recall bias [16]. Although we had access to a large number of covariates, there is likely residual confounding in the associations found.…”

“…At the end of the testing session, each participant was asked to wear a triaxial accelerometer (GT3X+; ActiGraph, Pensacola, FL, USA) for seven consecutive days, as described previously [16]. When participants returned with the accelerometers, the data were downloaded and wear time was validated using the ActiLife software (version 6.11.2; ActiGraph).…”

“…Bone is a biomechanical tissue that adapts its structure to withstand varying forces stemming from muscle activity and gravity 29 . The relationship between physical activity, objectively measured by triaxial accelerometers, and BMD has been described in both healthy older adults 30 and in COPD patients 31 . In healthy older adults, a positive association was found between moderate to vigorous physical activity and femoral neck BDM 30 .…”

“…The relationship between physical activity, objectively measured by triaxial accelerometers, and BMD has been described in both healthy older adults 30 and in COPD patients 31 . In healthy older adults, a positive association was found between moderate to vigorous physical activity and femoral neck BDM 30 . Moreover, COPD patients with osteoporosis had lower level of daily physical activity than those without COPD, and daily physical activity correlated positively with lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck BMD 31 .…”
