| Abstract | The objective of the present study was to investigate the association of low bone mass with the risk of stroke and death in community residents of China. This study was based on the follow-up data acquired from 5,136 postmenopausal women aged 50 years or older between July 2006 and June 2011. Baseline and the follow-up bone mineral density (BMD) in these patients were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry scanning. The association of BMD and risk of stroke and death was further evaluated by Cox proportional hazard analysis. During the follow-up, 148 subjects (2.9 %) sustained prospective stroke, and 261 subjects (5.1 %) died. After adjustments for age and BMI, our results indicated that neck BMD and osteoporosis were independent predictors of stroke (HR for neck BMD = 1.35, 95 % CI = 1.21–1.62; HR for osteoporosis = 2.24, 95 % CI = 1.47–3.58) and were also associated with increased risk of death (HR for neck BMD = 1.39, 95 % CI = 1.24–1.71; HR for osteoporosis = 1.97, 95 % CI = 1.21–2.97). Our results also suggest that low neck BMD and osteoporosis are associated with significantly elevated risk of stroke and death in Chinese postmenopausal women. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
