“…It should be noted that the PIXI is not meant as a clinical evaluation tool and should not be used as such. Furthermore, forearm DXA is a sensitive site to detect improvements in BMD (2,5,6) and has demonstrated relationships with body composition in children (16) and adults (17). Therefore, the validity of PIXI-based BMD assessments in young children could have important implications for pediatric bone research.…”

“…DXA devices measure BMD in the whole body, spine, hip, and forearm, as well as assess body composition (1) and have been used successfully in children aged 2e5 yr (2e4). These sites are proven to respond to changes in nutrition (2,5,6). Although the International Society for Clinical Densitometry (7) recommends that lumbar spine and whole body scans be preferentially used in clinical pediatrics (5e19 yr), there are no guidelines for population assessments in healthy younger children.…”

“…However, this theory remains to be proven and the supporting evidence for an 'optimum' Ca/P ratio is lacking. Neville et al (2002) found a significant positive relationship between lumbar spine BMD and Ca/P ratio in young adult males, and Whiting et al (2002) showed that P was a significant positive predictor of whole body and lumbar spine BMD in men aged 39-42 y. A further study by Teegarden et al (1998) showed that whole body and spine BMC and BMD were positively related to P intake and Ca/P ratio.…”

“…Higher educational levels might indirectly influence bone health because individuals may have better knowledge and behaviors [17,18]. Higher educational levels may also be related to better nutrition and health during childhood and adolescence, when peak bone mass is attained [6,19,20]. In one study, Chinese postmenopausal women with higher educational levels were found to be taller and their age at menarche, an important factor for peak bone mass, was younger than that of less educated women [6].…”
