摘要

儿童青少年时期骨骼显著地纵向生长、骨面积快速扩张,骨矿物质大量累积,是人类峰值骨量最大化,预防骨质疏松的关键时期。鉴于儿童青少年超重肥胖问题日益严重,肥胖与骨健康的关系研究成为人们关注的热点。然而,现有的两者关联的研究结果存在争议,关联机制仍需进一步探索。本文概述了骨骼参数的相关定义和测量方法,充分综述了儿童青少年不同的肥胖参数与骨矿物质含量及骨密度关联结果的差异,总结了两者之间的关联机制,为今后的相关研究指明方向,为提升儿童青少年骨健康,预防骨质疏松提供理论支持。

Abstract

During childhood and adolescence, significant longitudinal bone growth, rapid expansion of bone area, and substantial accumulation of bone minerals occur, making this a critical period for maximizing peak bone mass and preventing osteoporosis. Given the increasingly serious problem of childhood and adolescent obesity, the study of the relationship between obesity and bone health has become a hot topic. However, the results of the association between the two are controversial,and the underlying mechanism still needs to be further explored. This review outlines the relevant definitions and measurement methods of bone parameters, comprehensively reviews the differences in the association between various obesity parameters and bone mineral content and bone density in children and adolescents, summarizes the underlying mechanisms of the association, and provides guidance for future relevant research. It also provides theoretical support for improving the bone health of children and adolescents and preventing osteoporosis.
