The objective of this study is to assess tracking of bone mass during childhood and adolescence. Specifically, we will estimate the degree of tracking over 1 and 2 year intervals in girls between 3 and 17 years of age. Annual measurements bone mineral content and density will be measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. A total of 300 girls will be followed for 3 years. To date, baseline measurements have been obtained on 229 girls. This study will lay the foundation for a longer- term longitudinal study of tracking in bone mass in children.

本研究的目的是评估骨质量的跟踪， 儿童和青少年时期。 具体来说，我们将估计 在3至17岁的女孩中，每隔1年和2年跟踪一次， 年龄 每年测量骨矿物质含量和密度， 通过双能X射线吸收测定法测量。 总共有300名女孩将 跟踪3年。 到目前为止，基线测量已经 229个女孩 这项研究将为一个更长的基础- 儿童骨量追踪的长期纵向研究。
