Gender Differences in Insulin‐like Growth Factor and Bone Mineral Density Association in Old Age: The Rancho Bernardo Study

Insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I) clearly plays a role in bone metabolism and maintenance, as evidenced by in vitro and animal studies. In clinical studies, the age‐related decrease in IGF‐I parallels the age‐related decrease in bone mineral density (BMD), but several age‐adjusted cross‐sectional...
