Figure 1 Bone mineral density at baseline and after follow-up. Shown for the patients treated without (n = 48) and with (n = 18) bisphosphonates are: (A) the standardized BMD (sBMD) for each patient, together with the median sBMD (filled large squares), at baseline (pre) and at follow-up (post), and (B) the median, 25th, and 75th percentiles (box), and range of the rates of change of sBMD (whiskers).

Figure 2 Annualized bone mineral density at baseline and after follow-up. Shown for the patients treated without (n = 48) and with (n = 18) bisphosphonates are: (A) the BMD Z-scores for each patient, together with the median Z-score (filled large squares), at baseline (pre) and at follow-up (post), and (B) the median, 25th, and 75th percentiles (box), and range of the rates of change of Z-scores (whiskers).
