Article Synopsis
- Basic combat training (BCT) leads to significant changes in the bone microarchitecture of soldiers, particularly in the tibia, and is influenced by factors like sex and race.
- A study analyzed 1,605 trainees, measuring bone density and thickness before and after 8 weeks of BCT, finding increases across all groups but notable differences in the degree of change based on sex and race.
- Female trainees showed greater improvements in trabecular bone metrics compared to males, while white trainees had better outcomes than black trainees in certain bone density measures.
