Decreased Bone Mineral Density Is a Predictor of Poor Survival in Critically Ill Patients

Alterations in bone mineral density (BMD) have been suggested as independent predictors of survival for several diseases. However, little is known about the role of BMD in the context of critical illness and intensive care medicine. We therefore evaluated the prognostic role of BMD in critically ill...
