PvuII and &I restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of the estrogen receptor (ER) gene and its relation to bone mineral density (BMD) were examined in 238 postmenopausal healthy women aged 45-91 years (66.3 f 0.6 years, mean f standard error of the mean [SEMI) in Japan. The RFLPs were rep
Vitamin D receptor (VOR) polymorphisms have been strongly associated with bone mineral density (BMD) in some studies but not in others. We used a meta-analytic approach to assess quantitatively the association between VDR and BMD and to examine the inftuence of specific study characteristics (e.g.,
