Bone Mineral Density in Patients with Hepatic Glycogen Storage Diseases

Bone Mineral Density in Patients with Hepatic Glycogen Storage Diseases

The association between bone mineral density (BMD) and hepatic glycogen storage diseases (GSDs) is still unclear. To evaluate the BMD of patients with GSD I, IIIa and IXα, a cross-sectional study was performed, including 23 patients (GSD Ia = 13, Ib = 5, IIIa = 2 and IXα = 3; median age = 11.9 years...
