Type 1 DM Effect on BMD: a Longitudinal Study in Adults
Because the diabetics are fracturing at a younger age than the general population (12), this
leads us to believe there are significant factors that lead to fracture in Type 1 diabetes
mellitus (DM) other than bone mineral density (BMD). Very little longitudinal data exists on
BMD in adults with Type 1 DM and the effects of glucose control on BMD. No longitudinal data
exists on pQCT in adults with Type 1 DM.
Hypothesis: Adult subjects with diabetes and poor glucose control will lose bone mineral
density (BMD) as measured by DXA compared to age and sex matched healthy controls.
