Peak bone mineral density, lean body mass and fractures
Bone , 11/03/09
Boot AM et al. – Peak BMD and peak LBM were attained between 18 and 20 years in females and between 18 and 23 years in males in this study using longitudinal and cross sectional data in the age range of 4 to 30 years. A significantly lower total body BMD was seen in participants who had had a fracture and a lower lumbar spine BMD and BMAD in females who had had a fracture. Lumbar spine BMAD Z–score seems to be a good predictor for future fractures.
