throughout adult life, and estrogen deficiency at menopause is a major pathogenetic factor …

Peak bone mass, which can be defined as the amount of bony tissue present at the end of
the skeletal maturation, is an important determinant of osteoporotic fracture risk …

To determine the timing of peak bone mass and density, we conducted a cross-sectional
study of bone mass measurements in 265 premenopausal Caucasian females, aged 8-50 …

Bone densitometry using dual‐photon absorptiometry (DPA) or dual‐energy x‐ray
absorptiometry (DXA) has become a standard method for assessing bone mineral content in …

Objective.—To test whether bone mass increases in healthy nonpregnant white women
during early adult life after cessation of linear growth; and to test whether various self …

We performed a prospective study to evaluate the normal changes in bone mineral density
(BMD) in the forearm, hip, spine and total body, and to study the agreement between …

The objective of this study was to examine changes in the long bones of male C57BL/6J
mice with growth and aging, and to consider the applicability of this animal for use in …

Aims: To obtain normative data on bone mineral density and body composition measured
