Objective: To investigate the relationships between respiratory function and osteoporosis, 132 premenopausal and 98 postmenopausal women were evaluated. Methods: Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Pulmonary function and anthropometric parameters were measured using a spirometer and a body composition analyzer. Results: Lumbar spine and proximal femur BMDs in postmenopausal women with forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)≥ 92.0% averaged 0.83±0.12 g/cm 2 …
