Decreased Bone Mineral Density in Adults Born with Very Low Birth Weight: A Cohort Study

BACKGROUND: Very-low-birth-weight (VLBW, <1,500 g) infants have compromised bone mass accrual during childhood, but it is unclear whether this results in subnormal peak bone mass and increased risk of impaired skeletal health in adulthood. We hypothesized that VLBW is associated with reduced bone...
