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
