Interactions between bone density and muscle mass in predicting all-cause mortality: a 10-year prospective cohort study of 1388 older men (aged 77–101 years).

Background Low bone density and low muscle mass are both independent risk factors for mortality in older men. However, it is unknown if these tissues interact to increase mortality risk. Elucidating this information is important as bone and muscle are modifiable across the life cycle. Objective To e...
