Low bone mineral density and handgrip strength are associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality: A cohort study with primary analysis and replication in 16,282 adults.
This study aimed to evaluate the modifying effects and joint associations of handgrip strength (HGS) and bone mineral density (BMD) with all-cause mortality, with an exploratory analysis of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. A primary analysis cohort ( n = 11150) and a replication cohort ( n = 5952) were included....
