NCT ID NCT01258036
Summary
This study aimed to understand how bone structure and fracture risk might be inherited from mothers to daughters. Researchers compared bone scans and health markers between daughters whose mothers had experienced bone fractures and those whose mothers had not. The goal was to identify inherited factors that make some people more prone to weak bones and fractures later in life.
