Microarchitectural properties of the femoral distal metaphysis

	OVX	OVE
BV/TV, %	2.8 ± 0.8	12.4 ± 1.4*
Tb.Th, μm	21.5 ± 2.4	29.3 ± 1.8*
Tb.N, mm	1.2 ± 0.3	4.6 ± 0.7*
Tb.Sp, μm	1314.0 ± 516.2	213.5 ± 37.8†

Values represent means ± SE. OVX, ovariectomized; OVE, ovariectomized and receiving 17β-estradiol; BV/TV, bone volume-to-total volume ratio; Tb.Th, trabecular thickness; Tb.N, trabecular number; Tb.Sp, trabecular separation.

^*P < 0.05 vs. OVX group,
