Abstract Objective: To analyze the change regularities of bone mineral density (BMD) in lumbar vertebrae and the hips of healthy adults in Wenzhou area, establishing of a local region of BMD normal reference value, in order to provide reference for prevention and clinical treatment of osteoporosis. Methods: Used by dual energy X-ray absorptionetry (DXA), BMD of lumbar vertebrae (L1, L2, L3, L4, L1-4) and the hips in 791 cases of healthy adults in Wenzhou area was measured, statistical analysis was perfomed with SPSS18.0 software. Results: The peak of BMD in lumbar vertebrae and the hips occurred at the age of 20~29 in females and 30~39 in males. After reaching the peak of BMD, the BMD value decreased with growing age, and it reduced with increase of age. However, the rebound phenomenon of BMD value in lumbar vertebrae occurred in men after 60 years old. Conclusion: BMD data of healthy adult men and women in Wenzhou area can provide certain refrrence value for the diagnosis of osteoporosis in our region.
