Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of throwing-related physical activity on DXA-derived proximal humerus areal bone mineral density (aBMD), bone mineral content (BMC), and bone area. Data represent the mean percent difference between throwing and nonthrowing arms, with error bars indicating 95% confidence intervals. Confidence intervals greater than 0% indicate greater bone properties within the throwing arm compared to nonthrowing arm (†p < 0.01).
