Sexual minority (SM) people experience significant stress associated with stigma, contributing to a higher rate of adverse health outcomes. Several known factors (eg, smoking) elevate risk of poor bone health, but to date little research has examined disparities in bone health among SM people. To address this, we analyzed sexual orientation differences in an available bone mineral density (BMD) cross-sectional dataset assessed via dual X-ray absorptiometry.

基于性取向的骨骼健康差异：在多个 NHANES 浪潮中，性少数男性而非女性的骨矿物质密度和矿物质含量降低的证据

性少数 (SM) 人承受着与污名相关的巨大压力，导致不良健康结果的发生率更高。几个已知因素（例如，吸烟）会增加骨骼健康不佳的风险，但迄今为止，很少有研究调查 SM 人群骨骼健康的差异。为了解决这个问题，我们分析了通过双 X 射线吸收测定法评估的可用骨矿物质密度 (BMD) 横截面数据集中的性取向差异。
