Effect of GC treatment on trabecular bone structure in the lumbar vertebrae assessed by micro-CT. Data are presented as mean ± SD, *p < 0.05 versus PL within the same strain.
BV/TV = bone volume fraction; GC = glucocorticoid; PL = placebo; SD = standard deviation; Tb.N = trabecular number, Tb.Th = trabecular thickness, Tb.Sp = trabecular separation; black = placebo; white = GC-treated groups.
