The aging process is associated with an increasing prevalence of osteoporosis and aortic calcification, but it is uncertain if these two conditions are interrelated. We examined the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and evidence of aort

We examined the associations of two biochemical markers of bone turnover with lifestyle factors in 340 postmenopausal women in Hawaii, ages 45-59 years, from the Early Postmenopausal Intervention Cohort. Physical activity, calcium supplement use, smo

The aim of this study was to assess the ability of serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (bone ALP), creatinine-corrected urinary collagen crosslinks (CTx) and calcaneus bone mineral density (BMD) to identify postmenopausal women who have an incre

Thinness (low percentage of body fat, low body mass index [BMI], or low body weight) was evaluated as a risk factor for low bone mineral density (BMD) or increased bone loss in a randomized trial of alendronate for prevention of osteoporosis in recen

To establish whether biochemical markers could be used to monitor alendronate (ALN) treatment and predict long-term response in bone mass, we used results from an ongoing, randomized trial of ALN treatment for prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosi

The Hawaii Osteoporosis Center’s website provides an information tool, the Remaining Lifetime Fracture Probability, that practitioners can use to make clinical decisions for osteoporosis patients quickly and easily. The Remaining Lifetime Fracture

We compared bone mineral density (BMD) of the whole body (and subregions: arm, leg, and pelvis), hip, spine, lateral spine, wrist, and forearm among Caucasian and Asian women at four geographic centers (Honolulu, HI; Nottingham, UK; Portland, OR; Cop

We investigated the independent contributions of vertebral size and shape, bone density, and existing fractures for predicting the risk of new vertebral fractures among postmenopausal Japanese-American women in Hawaii. Baseline measurements of bone d

Our study compares the bone mass of Hawaiian, Filipino, Japanese, and white women living in Oahu, Hawaii. Eligible women ranged in age from 25 to 34; all had bone mass measurements at the spine, calcaneus, and proximal and distal radius. Their averag

Compared with white women, Asian women have about a 40%-50% and blacks a 50%-60% lower risk of hip fracture, but the reason for this racial difference is not known. Women with a shorter hip axis have a lower risk of hip fracture. To test the hypothes
