This study examined the age-related bone mineral density (BMD), accumulated bone loss rate (ABLR) at different skeletal sites in Korean men using the data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES)(the 1st (2010), 2nd (2010) and the year at the 5th survey). The cubic regression model was found to be the best for describing the age-related changes in BMD. The lumbar spine, total hip, femoral neck, trochanter, Ward's triangle in the bone mineral density difference were analyzed by ANOVA. The peak BMD was at 20-24 years at the lumbar spine, total hip, femoral neck, trochanter, Ward's triangle, and the 75-79 years of age group had the highest Accumulated Bone Loss Rate. Therefore, intensive management will be necessary for men over 75 years, and a diagnosis of osteoporosis in Korean men should be made according to The International Society for Clinical Densitometry; ISCD.

We investigated the age-related BMD, accumulated bone loss rate and peak BMD at Lumbar spine, total hip in Korean using data from KNHANES (the 1st(2010), 2nd(2011) and year at the 5th survey). We found that the cubic regression model was the best for describing age-related changes in BMD. Lumbar spine, total hip in bone mineral density difference were analyzed using ANOVA. This showed that the peak BMD was at the age of 20-24 years at lumbar spine, total hip and the bone loss rate was the highest in the lumbar spine at 75-79 years and the total hip was 80 years or older in the men. This showed that the peak BMD was at the age of 40-44 years at lumbar spine, total hip and the bone loss rate was the highest in the lumbar spine at 70 years or older and the total hip was 75-79 years older, 80 years old, 55-59 years old in the women. Therefore, in men, 75 years or older to increase the rate of osteoporosis screening, and women in their 50s and older menopause related management strategies to manage osteoporosis will be needed.
