BV/TV, bone volume fraction; Tb.N, trabecular number; Tb.Th, trabecular thickness; Tb.Sp, trabecular spacing; Conn.D, connectivity density; SMI, structure model index. Data are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 6 in each group). ^*P<0.05 vs. SHAM, ^#P<0.05 vs. OVX by one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post hoc test.
