Fat mass and bone development [PDF]
Expert Review of Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2010 . Whether a similar association exists in children, implying that fat mass helps the development as well as maintenance of bone, is more controversial. In a cross sectional study, we previously reported that fat mass is positively related to total body bone mass independently of lean mass and height in 3082 boys and girls at a mean age of 9.9 years ...
