We determined the effects of the anthropometric measurements on osteoporosis from higher to lower influence as follows: weight, menopause age, age, BMI and height. Weight and menopause age of the patients were the major determinants for osteoporosis.

Forty adult female rats were randomly divided into four groups. Before the standard surgical procedure which consisted of creating a lesion with a lancet over the right uterine horn. Group I received no medication. Ringer's lactate (RL) solution was applied intraperitoneally to Group II at the end of the surgery. Sepracoat solution was applied intraperitoneally to Group III at the onset of the surgery. Group IV randomly received Seprafilm wrapped over the entire right uterine horn. Re-laparotomy was performed 3 weeks later to evaluate the adhesions. The mean adhesion scores were (mean+/-SD) 2.90+/-0.18, 1.00+/-0.36, 0.50+/-0.17 and 0.40+/-0.16 in Groups I, II, III, IV, respectively. The postsurgical adhesions were significantly less in the groups treated with Seprafilm and Sepracoat.
