Figure 6

The BMD values of the rat lumbar vertebrae L2, L3, and L4 6 weeks after ovariectomy or nonovariectomy. SMF: ovariectomized and implanted with a disc magnet; Sham: ovariectomized and implanted with a nonmagnetized disc; OVX: ovariectomized alone; CTL: intact (nonoperated) cage control. in each group. ; ; versus sham or CTL.
