Bone health in children and adolescents: risk factors for low bone density.

Pediatric endocrinology reviews : PER - 1 Jan 2000

Pitukcheewanont Pisit, Austin Juliana, Chen Paul, Punyasavatsut Natavut

Abstract excerpt

Osteoporosis is a common disease that is characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD). Decreased BMD is associated with increased fracture risk. In adults, normal BMD results from the balance between accrual of peak bone mass (PBM) at the end of adolescence, and subsequent bone loss with age. Although environmental factors play a role, hereditary factors are the major contributors (up to 80%) to the...
