Abstract excerpt

Osteoporotic fragility fractures are related to bone density and injury, which are both related to muscle strength. The influence of genetic factors, such as the vitamin D receptor (VDR) polymorphism on bone mineral density (BMD), is documented but still controversial, and is not known for muscle strength. In the present study, we investigated the association between the VDR BsmI polymorphism and BMD (femoral...
