Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: INTRODUCTION--HYPOTHESIS: Since the genetic bases of bone mass regulation in males are still poorly understood and the role of calciotropic hormones on bone mineral metabolism is absolute, our hypothesis is based on the certainty that specific genetic polymorphism will contribute, at least, on bone mass values. Our objective was to examine the relative contribution of genetic variables to the...
