Abstract
In this study, plasma levels of homocysteine were significantly inversely associated with both bone ultrasound parameters and with bone mineral density. However, the size of the associations seems to be of limited clinical relevance and may therefore not explain the previously observed association between plasma homocysteine and osteoporotic fracture incidence.
