Bone Mineral Density in Children and Adolescents: Relation to Puberty, Calcium Intake, and Physical Activity
Open accessAbstract
The association of height, weight, pubertal stage, calcium intake, and\n physical activity with bone mineral density (BMD) was evaluated in 500\n children and adolescents (205 boys and 295 girls), aged 4-20 yr. The BMD\n (grams per cm2) of lumbar spine and total body was measured with dual\n energy x-ray absorptiometry. Lumbar spine volumetric BMD was calculated to\n correct for bone size. BMD and volumetric BMD increased with age. During\n puberty, the age-dependent increment was higher. After adjustment for age,\n the Tanner stage was significantly associated with all three BMD variables\n in girls and with spinal BMD in boys. In boys, positive correlations were\n found between BMD and both calcium intake and physical activity after\n adjustment for age. Stepwise regression analysis with weight, height,\n Tanner stage, calcium intake, and physical activity as determinants with\n adjustment for age resulted in a model with Tanner stage in girls and\n weight in boys for all three BMD variables. The major independent\n determinant of BMD was the Tanner stage in girls and weight in boys.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
