Figure 5.
Scattergrams showing the relation between cancellous bone mineral density (BMD) in the distal femur and peak endothelium-dependent vasodilation of the femoral PNA from lean and obese ZDF rats during pre-diabetes (A), short-term diabetes (B), and long-term diabetes (C). A significant linear relation (P< 0.05) exists between cancellous BMD and peak PNA vasodilation in each condition.
