Summary

This study looked at 70 elderly women, half with osteoporosis and half without, to see if lower body muscle strength is linked to bone density. Researchers measured hip and knee strength using a special machine and compared it to bone scans. The goal was to better understand risk factors for muscle weakness and bone loss.
