Bone mass and quality in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: longitudinal evaluation of bone-mass determinants by using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, peripheral quantitative computed tomography, and quantitative ultrasonography.

The SSIp longitudinal evaluation (Figure 2 g) showed that the JIA patients had slightly significant lower levels than the controls (306.8 ± 200.7 versus 276.7 ± 110.4 mm 3 , P < 0.05), which was also found in the oligoarticular (287.6 ± 178.4, P = NS) and polyarticular subsets (316.1 ± 209.4, P < 0.005).
