髋轴长度(HAL)已被认为是高加索女性髋部骨折风险的独立预测因子。股骨颈轴线长度(FNAL)是股骨几何形状的类似测量，但不包括髋臼结构。这项研究的目的是研究老年男性和女性使用FNAL的髋关节几何形状和髋部骨折之间的联系，以及其他人体测量学数据。研究组包括123名女性(23名髋部骨折患者和100名年龄匹配的对照组)和137名男性(13名髋部骨折患者、65名年龄匹配的对照组和59名当前身高匹配的对照组)。所有受试者均采用双能X线骨密度仪测量股骨颈骨密度。通过这些扫描，FNAL被测量为从大转子底部到股骨头尖端的线性距离。FNAL与当前身高(女性和男性分别为r=0.0001.47和r=0.56；P<0.0 5)和峰值高度(女性和男性分别为r=0.45和r=0.5 7；P<0.0 5)显著相关。
Hip axis length (HAL) has been proposed as an independent predictor of hip fracture risk in Caucasian females. Femoral neck axis length (FNAL) is a similar measure of femoral geometry but does not include acetabular structures. The aim of this study was to examine the association between hip geometry, using FNAL, and hip fractures in elderly males and females in relation to other anthropometric data. The study group comprised 123 females (23 hip fracture patients and 100 age-matched controls) and 137 males (13 hip fracture patients, 65 age-matched controls and 59 current-height-matched controls). All subjects had femoral neck bone mineral density measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. From these scans, FNAL was measured as the Linear distance from the base of the greater trochanter to the apex of the femoral head. FNAL was correlated significantly with current height (r = 0.47 and r = 0.56 for females and males respectively; p < 0.0001) and peak height (r = 0.45 and r = 0.57 for females and males respectively; p
