Forearm bone mineral density in Mar del Plata women sample
The incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis, and the frequencies of related fractures, had been studied several times in Latin America. In Argentina, these studies were focused on femoral neck and lumbar vertebras. In the current work, we present an exploratory study of osteopenia and osteoporosis...
