In measurements of the metacarpal bone mass the values in normal Danish adults did not differ between the right and left hand, but were significantly higher in women compared with men in subjects 20-59 years of age; beyond that age the bone mass decrease in women compared with men. The metacarpal bone mass decreased significantly during the period of dialysis in patients on chronic hemodialysis and decreased significantly after renal transplantation. Recipients who developed necrosis of bone or spontaneous fractures after transplantation had significantly reduced metacarpal bone mass at the time of transplantation as compared with normal controls whereas recipients without bone lesions after renal transplantation had normal values at the time of transplantation.
在掌骨骨质测量中，正常丹麦成年人左右手掌骨的测量值并无差异，但在20至59岁的人群中，女性的掌骨骨质显著高于男性；超过该年龄后，女性的骨质相比男性有所下降。在慢性血液透析患者的透析期间，掌骨骨质显著降低，肾移植后也显著下降。与正常对照组相比，移植后发生骨坏死或自发性骨折的受者在移植时掌骨骨质明显降低，而肾移植后无骨病变的受者在移植时骨质值正常。
