Abstract excerpt

Twenty-four late postmenopausal women with osteoporosis were studied. The patients were separated in three subgroups according to the BsmI polymorphism of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene: BB (n = 8), Bb (n = 10) and bb (n = 6). They did not differ in age (mean ages were 66.0 years, 65.9 years and 63.9 years, respectively), years after menopause (18.7 years, 18.1 years and 18.4 years) or body weight (64.9 kg,...
