Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: A genome-wide bivariate analysis was conducted for femoral neck GPs and TBLM in a large white sample. We found QTLs shared by GPs and TBLM in the total sample and the sex-specific samples. QTLs with potential pleiotropy were also disclosed. INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have suggested that femoral neck cross-section geometric parameters (FNCS-GPs), including periosteal diameter (W), cross-sectional...
