Association between body mass index and lumbar spine volumetric bone mineral density in diabetic and non-diabetic patients

Figure 1 Flowchart of participant selection. BMI: Body mass index; PMDS: The Pinggu Metabolic Disease Study; vBMD: Volumetric bone mineral density.

Figure 2 Mean values of volumetric bone mineral density with age stratified by body mass index and sex. vBMD: Volumetric bone mineral density.

Figure 3 Values of volumetric bone mineral density stratified by body mass index and glucose metabolism. A: Body mass index; B: Glucose metabolism. BMI: Body mass index; vBMD: Volumetric bone mineral density; NW: Normal weight; OW: Overweight; OB: Obesity; DM: Diabetes mellitus; NDM: Non-diabetes mellitus.

Figure 4 Association between body mass index and volumetric bone mineral density in total population, men, and women. A: Total population; B: Men; C: Women. The solid red line represents the smooth curve fit between variables. Blue bands represent the 95%CI from the fit. BMI: Body mass index; vBMD: Volumetric bone mineral density.
