Abstract :
Fluoride content in water and levels
in blood have been an important
epidemiological and environmental
concern. Recently, water fluoride levels
have been reported to influence bone mineral density in post-menopausal women
through stimulation of gamma-interferons
(γ-IFN) that increase osteoclastic bone
resorption—an effect that is counteracted
by estrogen.1
On the other hand, skeletal
fluorosis may elevate bone mineral density (BMD, often reported in mg/dL) and
has been reported to occur due to environmental exposure to cleaning agents.2
We performed an analysis on the National Health and Nutrition Examination
Survey (NHANES) cross-sectional data3
(2013–2014) to determine the association
between plasma fluoride level and BMD as
well as bone mineral concentration (BMC)
at different areas of the femoral bone
