While BMD varies by sport among Paralympic athletes, it remains unclear whether sports participation protects against low BMD in the impaired population.

BMD and body composition were measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Low BMD was defined as Z-score &lt;\u20131.0. Multiple linear regression models assessed differences between sports-active (\u2265\u20091 year organised; \u22653 training hours per week) and non-sports-active participants, and associations with impairment and exercise characteristics, and body composition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Sixty-three wheelchair users (age 37\u2009\u00b1\u200911 years; 41% female; 48% sports-active; 49% with acquired impairments) were included. Low BMD was prevalent in 33%, 81% and 77% at the spine, hip and femoral neck, respectively. Low BMD at the hip was less prevalent in sports-active compared to non-sports-active (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.013), without differences in any BMD Z-score models (all\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&gt;\u20090.05).
