Abstract

In South Africa, appendicular and lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) have been found to be similar in black and white women. However, femoral BMD has been found to be higher in black than in white women. Two different techniques were used to recalculate BMD to eliminate the possible confounding influence of ethnic differences in height on areal BMD measurements. Volumetric bone mineral apparent density (BMAD) values were calculated and bone mineral content (BMC) was corrected for body and bone size. This report analyses differences in BMD (corrected for height and weight), BMAD, BMC (corrected for body and bone size), femoral neck axis length (FNAL), mineral homeostasis and bone turnover (BT) in a group of 20 to 49-year-old premenopausal (105 whites and 74 blacks) and 45 to 64-year-old postmenopausal (50 whites and 65 blacks) female South African nurses. The corrected BMD and BMC findings were congruous, showing that both pre- and postmenopausal blacks and whites have similar distal radius and lumbar spine bone mass but that whites have lower femoral neck bone mass than blacks. In contrast, BMAD findings suggest that pre- and postmenopausal whites have lower bone mass at the lumbar spine and femoral neck than blacks but si...Continue Reading
