Italic font indicates ln-transformed dependent variables. BMC= bone mineral content; aBMD= areal bone mineral density; Arm= Non-dominant Arm; nbFFM= non-bone lean mass. All models included gynecological age and height as independent variables (not shown), as well as whole body nbFFM and arm BLI, except models to explain Arm nbFFM (*lean mass excluded). For Adjusted Model R2 and t significance of β

a

p<0.05;

b

p≤0.01;

c

p≤0.001.

If 0.05 ≤ p ≤0.10, and for Arm totBLI, p is noted as parenthetic superscript, unless <0.001.
