- Abstract
The article reports on the results of research which was conducted in an effort to investigate the relationship between blood serum lipid levels, bone mineral density of the calcaneus and cardiovascular disease. Researchers evaluated data from the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam. They found that blood lipid levels do not explain an association which has been seen between osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease.
