Geographical differences in osteoporosis, obesity, and sarcopenia related traits in white American cohorts

Abstract It has been reported that geographical variation influences bone mineral density (BMD), obesity, and sarcopenia related traits in other countries. However, there is lack of similar studies in the US population. In this study, we compared data from three US study cohorts to evaluate geograph...
