The role of body composition and visceral fat in osteoporosis subtype differentiation: Insights from bioelectrical impedance analysis
Patients with senile and postmenopausal osteoporosis exhibit distinct differences in body composition compared to individuals without osteoporosis. In particular, the strong association between visceral fat and senile osteoporosis highlights a potential role for BIA in early risk detection and the development of tailored therapeutic strategies.
