| Abstract | It has been reported that whole-body vibration (WBV) is anabolic to trabecular bone in animal models and humans. It is likely that this anabolic response does not occur uniformly throughout the entire body. Two factors that may affect the observed anabolic response are vibration magnitude and skeletal site of interest. In this study, mice were loaded with WBV of varying magnitudes. After five weeks of loading, bone marrow was flushed from tibias in order to quantify osteoprogenitor cells. Staining with alizarin red (an indicator of mineralization) showed a significant decrease in percent stained area in the 0.3 g loaded group compared to the control group and the 1.0 g group. MicroCT analysis was performed at five skeletal sites: the proximal tibial metaphysis, femoral condyles, distal femoral metaphysis, proximal femur, and L5 vertebral body. Increasing magnitudes of WBV were associated with a non-dose-dependent increase in trabecular bone volume (BV/TV) at the proximal tibial metaphysis, although other sites were unresponsive. There were statistically significant increases in BV/TV in the 0.1 g group (32% increase) and 1.0 g group (43% increase) compared to control (p < 0.05). The 0.1 g and 1.0 g groups also had higher BV/TV than the 0.3 g loaded group. If this non-dose-dependent phenomenon is verified by future studies, it suggests that a range of magnitudes should be examined for each application of WBV. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
