RESUMEN
950 mg/d) group was significantly higher than those in median or low calcium intake group,among girls with BB genotype. However,such significant effect was not detected among girls with b allele. Conclusion:The PTH BstBⅠ polymorphism has significant interaction effect with calcium intake on bone mass accretion in Chinese adolescent girls. High calcium intake would be beneficial to gain higher bone mass accretion for girls with BB genotype than those with b allele.
RESUMEN
Objective: To investigate the association of calcium intake with bone mass in premenarche girls. Method: Bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) at the whole body, lumbar spine (L1-L4) and left hip of 194 premenarche girls (10?1 years old) were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Dietary calcium intakes were assessed by food frequency questionnaire and 3d weighed diet records. Results: Statistically significant positive correlations between daily calcium intake and bone bone mineral density (BMD) were or bone mineral content (BMC) at all studied bone sites were found (P
