- Abstract
Bone mineral density (BMD; measured by DXA) changes were observed at all sites at 1 year in 146 patients with anorexia nervosa. Four independent factors accounted for the variation in BMD at the spine: duration of anorexia, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP), cross-linked carboxyterminal telopeptide region of type I collagen (ICTP), and triiodothyronine (T3). No change in BMD was observed from 1 to 2 years during follow-up.
