Recovery of bone strength in young pigs from an induced short-term dietary calcium deficit followed by a calcium replete diet
AK Aiyangar, AG Au, TD Crenshaw, HL Ploeg - Medical engineering & …, 2010 - Elsevier
This study investigated whether the deficits in bone strength of pre-pubertal pigs, induced by
short-term deficits in dietary calcium can be recovered if followed by a calcium-fortified diet.
Young pigs were divided into two groups based on diet: a marginal Ca diet (70% of
established Ca requirements) or an excess Ca diet (150% of established Ca requirements)
for 4 weeks. Each group was then randomly sub-divided into two groups and fed diets with
either marginal or excess dietary Ca for 6 weeks in a cross-over design, resulting in four …
