The serum estradiol concentration and bone mineral content of the right radius were determined in 34 postmenopausal females. Regression analysis showed a significant positive correlation between the serum estradiol concentration and bone mineral content of the right radius (r=0.477, p less than 0.01). These results support the view that the decreased level of serum estrogens is one of the major factors involved in the loss of bone mass with age.
对34名绝经后女性测定了血清雌二醇浓度和右侧桡骨骨矿物质含量。回归分析显示血清雌二醇浓度与右侧桡骨骨矿物质含量之间存在显著正相关（r = 0.477，p < 0.01）。这些结果支持了血清雌激素水平降低是随年龄增长骨量丢失的主要因素之一这一观点。
