Table 1. The Determination of the Risk for Lower BMD^a According to the Presence of Pheochromocytoma.

	Patients with pheochromocytoma
	Odds ratio (95% CI)	P value
Lower BMD at any siteb	2.54 (0.98–6.60)	0.056
Lower BMD at the lumbar spine	3.31 (1.23–8.56)c	0.014c
Lower BMD at the femur neck	1.18 (0.31–4.45)	0.806
Lower BMD at the total hip	0.80 (0.17–3.75)	0.772

BMD, bone mineral density; CI, confidence interval.

^aLower BMD was defined by Z-score ≤−2.0 for premenopausal women and men aged <50 years, or T-score ≤−1.0 for postmenopausal women and men aged ≥50 years; ^b“Any site” includes the lumbar spine, femur neck, and/or total hip; ^cNumbers indicate statistically significant values. The multiple logistic regression analyses were performed after adjustment for age, sex, menopausal status, body mass index, current smoking, alcohol intake, regular outdoor exercise, diabetes, and medication use including corticosteroids, antihypertensive agents, bisphosphonates, and hormone replacement.
