FIGURE 31.2 Annual rate of change in bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine and total hip in premenopausal (red bars), early perimenopausal (blue bars), late perimenopausal (yellow bars), and postmenopausal (green bars) women (n = 1902). Rates of change were estimated from multivariable linear mixed models and adjusted for multiple covariates. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals (CI). Comparisons were made across status categories: Early peri- vs. premenopausal, p < 0.001 (spine) and p = 0.002 (hip); late peri- vs. early perimenopausal, p < 0.001 (spine) and p < 0.001 (hip); and post- vs. late perimenopausal, p = 0.002 (spine) and p < 0.001 (hip).

FIGURE 31.4 Annual rate of change in bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine (top panel) and total hip (bottom panel) in premenopausal (red bars), early perimenopausal (blue bars), late perimenopausal (yellow bars), and postmenopausal (green bars) women divided by tertiles of baseline body weight (tertile 1, <60.7 kg; tertile 2, 60.7–77.3 kg; tertile 3, >77.3 kg) in the entire cohort. Rates of change were estimated from multivariable linear mixed models and adjusted for multiple covariates. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals. Comparisons were made between tertile groups, with p values for lumbar spine in pre-, early peri-, late peri-, and postmenopausal women, respectively, as follows: tertile 1 vs. 3, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, and <0.001; tertile 2 vs. 3, = 0.033, <0.001, <0.001, and <0.001; tertile 1 vs. = 2, 0.13, = 0.002, = 0.39, and = 0.044; and with P values for total hip in pre-, early peri-, late peri-, and postmenopausal women, respectively: tertile 1 vs. 3, = 0.15, <0.001, = 0.027, and <0.001; tertile 2 vs. 3, = 0.51, = 0.08, = 0.09, and <0.001; tertile 1 vs. 2, = 0.032, = 0.017, = 0.68, and = 0.17.
