“…In the VDR gene, four common restriction fragment length polymorphisms (BsmI, TaqI, ApaI, and FokI) have been associated with BMD. In this sense, VDR gene polymorphisms have been strongly associated with BMD in some studies [29,30]; however, recent metaanalysis study have shown conflicting results of the relationship between VDR polymorphisms and BMD and founded only a modest but statistically significant association between lower frequency of BsmI bb genotypes and BMD in cases of bone fracture [31].…”

“…Through the genome of a single nucleotide polymorphism frequency analysis, the vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism should be more than 100 kinds [8,9]. We know vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms mainly related to four single nucleotide polymorphisms (BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI) from recent study [10]. Fang et al performed a meta-analysis relating BsmI or TaqI polymorphisms of the VDR gene with Osteoporosis risk [11].…”

“…In fact, previous meta-analyses have suggested that the BB genotype is associated with lower BMD and greater fracture risk than bb [25, 26]. In a meta-analysis of 39 studies it was shown that postmenopausal women with the BB genotype had significantly lower BMD at the spine than women with the bb genotype [25].…”
