Genetic Determinants of Trabecular and Cortical Volumetric Bone Mineral Densities and Bone Microstructure

Most previous genetic epidemiology studies within the field of osteoporosis have focused on the genetics of the complex trait areal bone mineral density (aBMD), not being able to differentiate genetic determinants of cortical volumetric BMD (vBMD), trabecular vBMD, and bone microstructural traits. T...
