From: Bone turnover markers in serum but not in saliva correlate with bone mineral density

Correlations of bone turnover markers determined in saliva and serum with bone mineral density. The data represent 40 postmenopausal osteoporotic women and 40 healthy non-osteoporotic females with bone mineral density (BMD) measured in the lumbar spine expressed as T-score and bone turnover markers osteocalcin (OC) and cross-linked-C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) measured in serum (A) and saliva (B). The p values are from Linear regression analysis.
