©2013 UpToDate ® Print Email High bone turnover is predictive of rapid bone loss The probability of rapid loss was calculated from the corresponding logistic regression equation for each marker. At each level, from left to right, the markers were: BAP (red bars), OC (blue bars), DPD (green bars), and PYD (orange bars). The means and SDs were based on all 199 samples. BAP: bone specific alkaline phosphatase; OC: osteocalcin; DPD: free deoxypyridinoline; PYD: free pyridinolines. Reproduced with permission from: Ross, PD, Knowlton, W.
