Nanoscale structural parameters of bone mineral and fibrils: (A) FWHM of the (0 0 2) reflection of HA as a function of age for Crh^+/+ and Crh^−120/+ bone at different ages. (B) L-parameter and (C) lattice spacing of HA crystallite for Crh^+/+ and Crh^−120/+ bone at different ages. (D) Degree of alignment of the mineral crystals (ρ-parameter) as a function of age and disease condition. Error bars shown are standard deviations. Statistical significance is denoted (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ns: not significant).
