High heritability of bone size at the hip and spine in Chinese.

Journal of human genetics - 1 Jan 2004

Jian Wei-Xia, Long Ji-Rong, Deng Hong-Wen

Abstract excerpt

Bone size, an independent determinant of bone strength, is an important risk factor for osteoporotic fracture. In the present study, we investigated the magnitude of the genetic determination of bone size at the spine and hip and their genetic covariation (if any) in a population of Chinese residing in Shanghai City of P.R. China. The subjects were 50 healthy full-sib pairs of females, 188 mother-daughter pairs,...
