2 Fig 1 Mean and standard deviation of BMD of subjects with and without SCI. (A) BMD at every hip region was significantly reduced for SCI group (P<.05). (B) BMD at the lumbar spine did not differ at any level between SCI and able-bodied group (P>.05).

3 Fig 2 (A) BMD at the distal femur and (B) BMD at the proximal tibia were significantly less (P<.05) for the SCI group, as determined by 4 masked raters using a newly developed protocol (see appendix 1).
