"We found that BMD values in diabetic patients (0.91[+ or -]0.11 g/cm[superscript]2 for lumbar region, 0.89[+ or -]0.14 g/cm[superscript]2 for hip region) were higher than healthy postmenopausal control group (0.81[+ or -]0.12 g/cm[superscript]2 for lumbar region, 0.76[+ or -]0.10 g/cm[superscript]2 for hip region)," reported O. Akin and collaborators at Numune Education and Research Hospital.
