FACTORS AFFECTING BONE MINERAL CONTENT AND AN INVERSTIGA-TION OF THE INCIDENCE OF OSTEOPOROSIS IN OLD AND MID AGED WOMEN[J]. Journal of Chongqing Medical University, 1994,(1).DOI:
one mineral content(BMC)was moasurod in 1060 women aged from 40 to 80 in Chongqing areawith single photo absorptiometry.The results show that BMC of old and mid-aged women decinescontinuously with age . Mcnopause accelerates BMC loss
the loss is fastest during the first decadeafter menopause. Bone mineral content is negatively corrolated with age and poriod afterpostmenopause(r=-0. 456
r=-0. 537 P< 0. 01). Bone mineral content is notcrrelated with bodyheight
body weight and number of pregnaey and parturition
Occupation does not have significantinfluence on BMC . Exercise is a protective factor of BMC . In Chongqing area
the incidence ofosteoporsis was 38.8% before menopause
while it reached 43.5%after menopause
the Incidence ofosteoporosis was 85% aged from 70 to 88 .
