Using Hologic QDR-2000 Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry(DEXA)
the BMD determination was performed in 210 selected Shanghai residents of both sexes across the age range of 16—50 In female groups the peak value of the L1-L4 BMD is 1023g/cm2 at the age of 31—35
while in male groups the peak BMD value is 0971g/cm2 and it occurred at the age of 26—30
the peak period lasts till the group aged 46—50 The similar conclusion is also drawn by further statistical treatments of data
