Fig. 1 BMD (g/cm2) at different sites of measurement in patients with IBD compared with control subjects. Lines indicate median values. No significant differences were found between IBD patients and controls. Paired differences of mean and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of the difference were calculated. BMD of total body: mean, 2.25 × 10−2; SD, 0.11; 95% CI, –5.6 × 10−3 to −5.06 × 10−2; patients vs. controls. BMD at lumbar spine: mean, –4.4 × 10−3; SD, 0.174; 95% CI, −5.4 × 10−2 to −4.47 ×10−2; patients vs. controls. BMD at femoral neck: mean, 2.65; SD, 0.186; 95% CI, −4.9 ×10−2 to 5.46 ×10−2; patients vs. controls.
