Abbreviations: BMD: Bone Mineral Density; FVC: forced vital capacity; FEV1: forced expiratory volume in 1 s; CI: Confidence intervals; Ba: unstandardized coefficients; βb: standardized coefficients

Basic Models: adjusted for age, gender, group, height, and BMI;

Full Model: adjusted for age, gender, region, height, BMI, smoking, alcohol consumption, family income, education, hemoglobin, platelet count (unit: (109/L)/(1000)), eating and exercise habits
