I wasn't aware the study was funded by the Fortibone company. Good to be aware of.

The company is Gelita. Dexa 6/25, stable since 2023.
My Dexa results are:
Bone Mineral Density (BMD) analysis performed on GE Lunar iDXA with serial number ME+212650.

FINDINGS:
Left Hip:

Femur Neck: BMD = 0.842 g/cm2
T-score = -1.4 Z-score = 0.3

Total Hip: BMD = 0.927 g/cm2
T-score = -0.6 Z-score = 0.8

Right Hip:

Femur Neck: BMD = 0.831 g/cm2
T-score = -1.5 Z-score = 0.2

Total Hip: BMD = 0.929 g/cm2
T-score = -0.6 Z-score = 0.9

Lumbar Spine:

L1: BMD = 0.768 g/cm2
L2: BMD = 0.798 g/cm2
L3: BMD = 0.884 g/cm2
L4: BMD = 0.732 g/cm2

Total Lumbar Spine (L1-L4 (L3)): BMD = 0.763 g/cm2
T-score = -3.4 Z-score = -1.6

Trabecular Bone Score:
L1-L4 (L3): TBS = 1.225

< 1.23: low
1.23 -1.31: borderline
> 1.31: normal
