Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Longitudinal growth and bone mass accumulation are two important phenomena during puberty, resulting in attainment of peak bone mass (PBM) and final height. They are thought to be under strong genetic control, with the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene being among the candidate genes. Bone metabolism markers are reported to be good predictors of longitudinal growth and bone mass increase. The purpose of...
