1. If gastric acid is necessary for the absorption of dietary calcium, the total absence of gastric acid secretion that occurs in pernicious anaemia could result in bone loss.

Relative to the normal women, in the women with pernicious anaemia the bone mineral density of the lumbar spine was decreased by 16% (P
