国家骨骼健康联盟的一份立场文件最近建议重新定义骨质疏松症的诊断标准。我们回顾了这一建议的优点和缺点，并认为应保留基于骨密度（BMD）的定义，同时明确诊断和干预阈值之间的区别。(C)2015年美国骨骼与矿物研究学会。
A position paper of the National Bone Health Alliance recently recommended that diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis be redefined. We review the merits and demerits of this proposal and argue that the operational bone mineral density (BMD)-based definition be retained while clarity is brought to bear on the distinction between diagnostic and intervention thresholds.
