Abstrakt: | 1. Serial measurements of total body calcium have been made by prompt γ-neutron activation analysis in 13 patients with inflammatory bowel disease over a mean period of 23 months. Changes in spinal trabecular bone mineral density and radial shaft bone mineral content were also assessed by using quantitative computed tomography and single photon absorptiometry, respectively. 2. The mean annual decreases (95% confidence intervals) were: total body calcium, 7.8% (−12.0 to −3.7%; P <0.001); spinal trabecular bone mineral density, 2.5% (−5.0 to +0.1%; 0.05
