Osteoporosis (OS) is a systemic bone disease characterized by low bone mass and bone microstructure damage. This study.
Methods
According to the T value, 88 elderly fracture patients were grouped as the control group (without OS, 43 cases) and observation group (with T value <-2.5, which could be diagnosed as OS, 45 cases). The content of boney containing protein (BGP), total type 1 collagen amino terminal extender peptide (TPINP), β-C… Show more
