长期坚持太极拳锻练对老年男性跟骨超声参数及雄性激素的影响

The Effect of Persistent Taiqiquan Exercise on the Quantitative Ultrasound Parameter of Calcaneum and Male Hormone for Aged Males

为了探索长期的太极拳锻练对老年男性跟骨超声参数和雄性激素的影响。通过测定太极拳组、老年对照组、成年对照组的跟骨超声参数及血清男性激素水平。结果发现:太极拳组的BUA显著高于老年对照组,与成年对照组无显著性差异;老年对照组血清T、FT、DHT显著性地低于太极拳组和成年对照组,SHBG明显高于太极拳组和成年对照组,太极拳组和成年对照组比较未见显著性差异。由此得出长期坚持太极拳锻练对保持和延缓老年男性跟骨骨量有积极作用,并能有效地延缓老年男性随龄增加的雄激素的下降趋势。

Objectives： to investigate the effect of persistent Taiqiquan exercise on the quantitative ultrasound parameter of calcaneum and male hormone in aged men. Methods..the quantitative ultrasonography of calcaneum was tested in Tajiquan group, the aged group and the adult group and by enzyme immunoassay, the concentrations of T FT DGT AND SHBG were measured in the study. Result.. BUA is significantly lower in the aged group than that in the Taiqiquan group but there is no significant difference compared with the adult group;the concentrations of T FT and DGT are lower and the concentration of SHBG is significantly higher in the aged group than those in Taijiquan group and the adult control group. The difference between Taijiquan group and the adult control group is not significant. Conclusion：persistent Taijiquan exercise might be beneficial for preventing the loss of bone mass of calcaneum and reducing the risk of male hormone decrease in aged males with aging.
