  1. Abbreviations: BMDRV Bone mineral density reference value, BMI Body mass index, CI Confidence interval, NLI Neurologic level of injury, OR Odds ratio, TDXA T-score provided by the DXA manufacturer, TNHA T-score provided by a single reference population of the NHANES
  2. Reference groups are as follows: Male (Sex); Non-smoking (Smoking); Non-alcohol (Alcohol); <12 months (Time from injury); Non-traumatic (Etiology of injury); Paraplegia (Main diagnosis); and Lumbar (NLI)
  3. For *, **, and ***, the mean difference is significant at the 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001 levels, respectively
  4. Statistical significance is set at p < 0.05
