Low Spinal Bone Density May Predict Faster Brain Aging

Bone Density Linked with Brain Function

Lower bone density is linked with worse cognitive function, which may help identify postmenopausal women at risk of parallel skeletal and neurologic decline.

Low spinal bone density may predict faster brain aging

Researchers at Johns Hopkins University found that lower bone mineral density in the spine was associated with faster cognitive decline and accelerated age-related white matter injury, according to a new study published today in Radiology, a journal of the Radiological Society of North America.
