Genetic and environmental correlations between bone mineral density and bone size in Caucasians.

Human biology - 1 Feb 2007

Abstract excerpt

To explore the magnitude of common genetic and environmental effects shared by bone mineral density (BMD) and bone size (BS) in a large sample of 4,489 subjects (2,667 females and 1,822 males) from 582 Caucasian pedigrees, we performed a bivariate variance decomposition analysis to evaluate genetic correlation (rhoG), environmental correlation (rhoE), and phenotypic correlation (rhoP) between BMD and BS at the...
