Abstract excerpt

A genetic marker for the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D receptor (VDR) is reported to account for much of the heritable component of bone density. It is not known whether VDR genotype influences bone accretion or loss, or how it is related to calcium metabolism. The VDR genotype was determined in 229 he...
