Scope and Contents

Contents

In order to assess the contribution of polymorphisms in the RANKL (TNFSF11), RANK (TNFRSF11A) and OPG (TNFRSF11B) genes to variations in bone mineral density (BMD), a population-based cohort with 1,120 extreme low hip BMD cases or extreme high hip BMD controls was genotyped on five SNPs. We further explored the associations between these genetic va...
