Adult size adjustments: weight for BMD; weight and height for bone area; no adjustments for femoral neck shaft angle. *Result corresponds to a 0.01 (g/cm2) increase in total hip BMD in men for a standard deviation change in standardised birth weight (where the standard deviation for standardised birth weight in men is 0.94, and for women is 1.11). | ||||
