Abstract excerpt

Bone geometry is a key factor in bone strength, which is the ultimate intrinsic determinant of fracture risk. Though the heritability of bone geometry is high, little effort has been spent on searching for the underlying genes. In this study, employing a sample of 1,873 subjects from 405 Caucasian nuclear families, we studied seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their haplotypes of the ER-alpha gene...
