Abstract:Background: Bone mineral density (BMD) is an established indicator of bone health, with lower BMD associated with increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are acknowledged as novel lipid biomarkers. However, the relationship between lipid biomarkers and BMD remains uncertain. This study examines the association between lipid biomarkers and BMD in a representative US population.
