  1. Note that hip BMD is positively correlated with albuminemia and spine BMD, whereas it is negatively correlated with bone formation parameters osteocalcin and P1NP, and phosphate levels. Spine BMD is positively correlated with ionized calcium and ALP, and negatively correlated with osteocalcin. CTX is positively correlated with osteocalcin and ALP. Osteocalcin is positively correlated with CTX and negatively with spine BMD. P1NP is positively correlated with ALP. BMD is negatively correlated with markers of bone formation. Significant correlations are in bold
