Obese rats and those with diabetes showed significant reductions in whole-bone biomechanical properties per unit bone mass, BMC. Vertebral properties (A-C) were measured in compression; unlar mid-shaft properties (D-F) were measured in 3-point bending. Data are mean ± SEM for n = 5–6 rats/group. a p < 0.01 vs. control; b p < 0.01 vs. obese; c p < 0.05 vs. control; d p < 0.05 vs. obese
