There was strong evidence of between country heterogeneity, but not between centres within countries. Hip BMD mean values were lower in European women, but SD's differed little from the NHANES-III USA results in both sexes. It may be necessary to adjust NHANES-III based T-scores by adding/subtracting a country-specific adjustment factor.Introduction | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/4672 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.bone.2008.04.001 | Direitos: | openAccess |
