X Ray results as a percentage of a number of subjects. For DMO, results are given by the mean in g/cm2 and SD. For biological results, the mean of the measurements are given. For data whose reference ranges vary with age, we also calculated ULM (Upper Limit Method)

*For normal range, please refer to Additional files. Reference values are presented by age and gender. Section headings are in bold
