标题：Exercise attenuates bone mineral density loss during diet-induced weight loss in adults with overweight and obesity: A systematic review and meta-analysis
摘要：Background
Weight-loss-induced fat loss improves cardiometabolic health in individuals with overweight and obesity; however, weight loss can also result in bone loss and increased fracture risk. Weight-loss-induced bone loss may be attenuated with exercise. Our aim was to compare changes in bone mineral density (BMD) in adults with overweight and obesity who undertook diet-induced weight loss alone or in combination with exercise.
Methods
We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in adults with overweight or obesity (aged ≥18 years; body mass index ≥25 kg/m
2) that prescribed diet-induced weight loss alone or in combination with supervised exercise, and measured any bone structural parameters. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. Random-effects meta-analyses determined mean changes and net mean differences (95% confidence intervals (95%CIs)) in the percentage of areal BMD (aBMD) change between groups.
Results
We included 9 RCTs. Diet-induced weight loss led to significant losses in femoral neck aBMD (mean change: −1.73% (95%CI: −2.39% to −1.07%),
p < 0.001) and total hip aBMD (−2.19% (95%CI: −3.84% to −0.54%),
p = 0.009). Femoral neck aBMD losses were significantly greater in the diet-induced weight loss group compared to the exercise plus diet-induced weight loss group (net difference: −0.88% (95%CI: −1.73% to −0.03%)); however, there were no differences in aBMD changes at any other skeletal site: total hip (−1.96% (95%CI: −4.59% to 0.68%)) and lumbar spine (−0.48% (95%CI: −1.81% to 0.86%)). aBMD changes did not differ significantly according to exercise modality (resistance exercise, aerobic exercise, or a combination of the two) during diet-induced weight loss.
Conclusion
Diet-induced weight loss led to greater femoral neck bone loss compared to diet-induced weight loss plus exercise. Bone loss at the total hip and lumbar spine was not attenuated by exercise during diet-induced weight loss. The lack of consistent skeletal benefits may be due to the insufficient duration and/or training intensities of most exercise interventions. Additional RCTs with appropriate, targeted exercise interventions should be conducted.
Highlights
•
Exercise significantly attenuated weight-loss-induced bone loss at the femoral neck but not at the lumbar spine or radius.
•
Attenuation of bone loss during diet-induced weight loss was not influenced by exercise mode.
•
Exercise led to significant attenuation of femoral neck bone loss during diet-induced weight loss in adults aged ≥60 years, but not in those aged <60 years.
