Abstract
⺠In this cohort of consecutive asymptomatic men, those with densitometric VFs have lower BMD than subjects without VFs. ⺠They have evidence of higher SHBG levels and hence lower free sex steroids as well as increased bone resorption. ⺠This study confirms that SHBG is an independent risk factor that must be taken into account.
