我们测量了17名3-14岁的创伤性骨折儿童腰椎和左股骨颈的骨密度。有任何代谢性骨病迹象的儿童被排除在研究之外。使用双光子吸收测定法对年龄和性别匹配的对照人群进行了相同的测量。骨矿物质测量分析显示，两组腰椎和股骨颈密度之间没有统计学上的显著差异。结果表明，骨密度降低不太可能在急性创伤性儿童骨折中发挥重要作用。
Bone mineral density in the lumbar spine and the left femoral neck was measuredfor a group of 17 children, 3-14 years of age, who had sustained traumatic fractures. Children with any signs of metabolic bone disease were excluded from the study. Identical measurements were made on an age- and sex-matched control population using dual photon absorptiometry. Analysis of bone mineral measurements revealed that there were no statistically significant differences between the lumbar and femoral neck densities of the two groups. The results indicate that reduced bone density is unlikely to play a significant role in acute traumatic pediatric fractures.
