Abstract excerpt
Bone mineral density (BMD) is an essential predictor of osteoporosis and fracture. We conducted a genome-wide trajectory analysis of BMD and analyzed the BMD change. PURPOSE: This study aimed to identify the genetic architecture and potential biomarkers of BMD. METHODS: Our analysis included 141,261 white participants from the UK Biobank with heel BMD phenotype data. We used a genome-wide trajectory analysis...
