摘要
Due to the lack of convincing data about the association between atherosclerosis and osteoporosis, we evaluated the association between carotid atherosclerosis and bone mineral density in a sample of apparently healthy postmenopausal women who underwent health-screening in our hospital. We also evaluated a bone turnover marker, osteocalcin; we divided the population into 2 groups according to osteocalcin levels. We found a high prevalence of carotid atherosclerosis in subjects with high osteocalcin levels and low bone mineral density. (C) 2004 by Excerpta Medica, Inc.
