IL21R and PTH May Underlie Variation of Femoral Neck Bone Mineral Density as Revealed by a Genome-wide Association Study

Bone mineral density (BMD) measured at the femoral neck (FN) is the most important risk phenotype for osteoporosis and has been used as a reference standard for describing osteoporosis. The specific genes influencing FN BMD remain largely unknown. To identify such genes, we first performed a genome-...
