High platelet count is associated with low bone mineral density: The MrOS Sweden cohort
Osteoporosis International Apr 18, 2021
Kristjansdottir HL, Mellström D, Johansson P, et al. - This study was carried out to explore whether bone mineral density (BMD) measurements are correlated with blood count variables and bone remodeling markers. Researchers examined blood count variables, bone remodeling markers, and BMD, in subjects from the MrOS cohort from Gothenburg, Sweden. They included 1,005 men with at least one blood count variable (hgb, white blood cell count, or platelet count) analyzed in the current analysis, median age 75.3 years (range 69–81 years). The findings suggest the hypothesis of an interplay between blood and bone components.
