Osteoporosis was found in 51 of the patients. There was no statistical difference between osteoporotic and nonosteoporotic patients for 'arm span-height' value (p is less than 0.05). No statistical difference was determined between total Kleerekoper score and 'arm span-height difference' value (p is less than 0.05). It did not seem convenient to estimate the presence of osteoporosis and related fractures by the help of 'arm span-height difference' value.en10.1111/j.1742-1241.2006.00944.xinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMenOsteoarthritisFracturesDensitySpineArm span-height difference is not an indicator of osteoporosis or associated vertebral deformity in postmenopausal womenEditorial621157159Q2WOS:0002517652000272-s2.0-3734906303518173816Q2
