1 UNLABELLED: In this large population-based study in young men, we show that the COMT val158met polymorphism modulates the association between physical activity, aBMD (DXA), and trabecular vBMD (pQCT). val158met catechol-O-methyltransferase Homo sapiens
2 CONCLUSIONS: We show that the COMT val158met polymorphism modulates the association between PA, aBMD, and trabecular vBMD, suggesting that this polymorphism is of importance for BMD in subjects with a low level of PA. val158met catechol-O-methyltransferase Homo sapiens
