In addition to the adjustment with age, YSM, and BMI, additional adjustments were conducted for OC with PTH and 25(OH)D, for PTH with OC and 25(OH)D, and for 25(OH)D with PTH and OC. YSM, years since menopause; BMI, body mass index; FBG, fasting blood glucose; GA, glycated albumin; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; OC, osteocalcin; PTH, parathyroid hormone; 25(OH)D, 25-hydroxyvitamin D.
