| Popis: | The bone mineral content was measured by single-photon absorptiometry (SPA) in osteoporotic patients and age-matched healthy control subjects. The calcium intake was evaluated on the basis of a retrospective dietary questionnaire including different periods of life. Osteoporotic patients had a significantly lower bone mineral content compared to the controls (0·62 versus 0·69 g/cm2 in females, and 0·73 versus 0·78 g/cm2 in males, respectively). During childhood and adolescence, the calcium intake from milk and milk products was significantly lower in the groups of patients compared with the controls (index of calcium intake, 23 versus 38 in females, and 29 versus 42 in males), whereas in later periods of life (20 to 30 years ago and at the time of the study) no significant differences were observed. |
