Abstract

Objective:To analyze the changes of the bone mineral density(BMD) in the healthy population in Lanzhou for diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis.Methods:BMD of ulna and radial bone of left forearm was measured in 1907 normal subjects(1381 males,526 females,aged 20～85 years old,and grouped by a ten-year interval) using SHY-Ⅰ BMD absorptiometry.Results:Peak value of BMD was found in 30～39 age groups,BMD decreased with age increasing,especially in women.Osteoporosis morbidity of aged people was higher than young and middle-aged people,old aged women had higher morbidity than old aged men(P0.05).Conclusions:BMD in Lanzhou changes with age,and connect with sex.BMD detection has importance in precaution and curing early phase in osteoporosis.
