The purpose of this study is to continue collecting information about the normal thickness of bone and how fast bone changes (gains or losses) in Cambodian men and women living in Olmsted County who were previously studied. Thus far, 132 Olmsted County residents (84 women, 48 men) of Cambodian origin have been enrolled in this 4-year prospective study to identify risk factors for bone loss in the Cambodian population for comparison with risk factors for white men and women in the community. When the baseline studies are complete, we plan to compare bone density levels among county residents of Cambodian origin to those of residents originally from Vietnam.

本研究的目的是继续收集有关正常骨厚度的信息，以及以前研究过的生活在奥姆斯特德县的柬埔寨男性和女性骨变化（增加或减少）的速度。到目前为止，132名奥姆斯特德县柬埔寨裔居民（84名女性，48名男性）已入组这项为期4年的前瞻性研究，以确定柬埔寨人群骨丢失的风险因素，并与社区中白色男性和女性的风险因素进行比较。 当基线研究完成后，我们计划比较柬埔寨和越南居民的骨密度水平。
