Sedentary lifestyle and physiological menopause are among the risk factors of osteopenia, especially in elderly people. However, bone mineral density decrease can also be observed in young individuals, for instance, due to deficiency of female sex hormones after surgical interventions, particularly ovariectomy. Our research enabled us to assess the efficacy of whole-body vibration in preventing the loss of bone mineral density in the ovariectomy rat osteopenia model. Thus, whole-body vibration with acceleration level 0.3 g and frequency 50 Hz was used on young female rats, which had been subjected to ovariectomy (n = 18). It had been conducted for 24 weeks, exposure time – 30 minutes per day, 5 times a week. Assessment of mineral component loss of the tibia was performed by means of X-ray diffraction. Bone remodeling was assessed by determining hormones: parathyroid hormone and calcitonin, Ca and P in the blood. X-ray diffraction is an effective method, which enables the evaluation a nanocomposites structure of the bone tissue in the experiment. In the article, we applied this method to determine the loss of bone mineral mass after ovariectomy and the impact of wholebody vibration under such conditions. In the ovariectomy group, the volume of a mineral component significantly decreased starting already from the 16th week (р<0.05) versus control. However, in the group with ovariectomy + wholebody vibration, the loss of a mineral component was insignificant during 8-16 weeks of the investigation, compared with the control group. On the 24th day, the spectrums almost did not differ from ovariectomized rats group. Meanwhile, hormone levels changed in ovariectomized rats group. It should be emphasized that the aforementioned whole-body vibration parameters do not cause severe bone damage or further negative consequences.
