The effect of a weight-bearing physical activity program on bone mineral content and estimated volumetric density in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
After an 8-month physical activity intervention in children with cerebral palsy, increases in femoral neck bone mineral content (BMC) (9.6\%), volumetric bone mineral density (v BMD) (5.6\%), and total proximal femur BMC (11.5\%) were observed in the intervention group (n = 9) compared with control subjects (n = 9; femoral neck BMC, -5. 8\%; v BMD, -6.3\%; total proximal femur BMC, 3.5\%).
