“…However, in two studies where heel BMD was used, no differences were found between patients with a distal radius fracture and controls [38,39]. The impact of low BMD in younger and older age groups is inconsistent in previous studies.…”

“…[13][14][15][16][17][18] Nevertheless, a few studies have found no difference between patients and controls. 19,20 Furthermore, the findings of previous studies have been inconsistent regarding the impact of a low BMD in younger and older patients. 14,21 In addition, information on BMD in Asian patients with a distal radius fracture is limited because of the use of a nonstandard peripheral BMD 13 or the lack of a comparison with normal controls.…”

“…Nevertheless, the relationship between distal radius fracture and bone mineral density is still controversial, especially in the Asian population. While several studies from Western countries showed that the average bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women with wrist fracture were lower than those without fracture [ [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] ], such a difference was not replicated in other studies [ 11 , 12 ]. In a case-control study involving over 200 postmenopausal Asian women with distal radius fractures, the patients had lower hip BMD, while lumbar spine BMD and trabecular bone score (TBS), a parameter that possibly indicates bone microarchitecture, was found to be the same as age-matched controls [ 13 ].…”
