Vitamin D deficiency and associated factors in adolescent girls in BeijingX Du
Department of Food Science and Technology, University of New South Wales, New South Wales, Australia
Am J Clin Nutr 74:494-500. 2001..Several locally published reports indicate a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency among adolescents in China, but no systematic population-based survey has been conducted...
Low body weight and its association with bone health and pubertal maturation in Chinese girlsX Du
Department of Food Science and Technology, University of New South Wales, Australia
Eur J Clin Nutr 57:693-700. 2003..To investigate the prevalence of low body weight in Beijing pubertal girls and to establish the cut-off for body mass index (BMI) for underweight for Chinese pubertal girls...
School-milk intervention trial enhances growth and bone mineral accretion in Chinese girls aged 10-12 years in BeijingXueqin Du
Faculty of Veterinary Science, The University of Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia
Br J Nutr 92:159-68. 2004..It is concluded that an increase in milk consumption, e.g. by means of school milk programmes, would improve bone growth during adolescence, particularly when Ca intake and vitamin D status are low...
Growth, bone mass, and vitamin D status of Chinese adolescent girls 3 y after withdrawal of milk supplementationKun Zhu
Faculty of Veterinary Science, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW, Australia
Am J Clin Nutr 83:714-21. 2006..04), but the difference was attenuated by additional adjustment for physical activity level (14.2 +/- 6.7%; P = 0.08). CONCLUSION: Milk supplementation during early puberty does not have long-lasting effects on bone mineral accretion...
Bone mass in Chinese premenarcheal girls: the roles of body composition, calcium intake and physical activityKun Zhu
Faculty of Veterinary Science, The University of Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia
Br J Nutr 92:985-93. 2004..7%). The results indicate that premenarcheal girls should be encouraged to optimise nutrition and Ca intake and exercise regularly to achieve maximum peak bone mass...
Effects of school milk intervention on cortical bone accretion and indicators relevant to bone metabolism in Chinese girls aged 10-12 y in BeijingKun Zhu
Faculty of Veterinary Science and the School of Public Health, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW, Australia
Am J Clin Nutr 81:1168-75. 2005..We previously reported that increased milk consumption enhances growth and bone mineral accretion in Chinese girls aged 10-12 y...
Growth and bone mineral accretion during puberty in Chinese girls: a five-year longitudinal studyKun Zhu
Faculty of Veterinary Science, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia
J Bone Miner Res 23:167-72. 2008..9%, PHV occurred at 3-0 yr before menarche, and peak bone mineral accretion occurred 1 yr later than PHV. Chinese girls have high calcium retention efficiency during puberty...

Effects of two years' milk supplementation on size-corrected bone mineral density of Chinese girlsKun Zhu
Department of Endocrinology and Diabetes, Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital, Nedlands, WA 6009, Australia
Asia Pac J Clin Nutr 17:147-50. 2008..0-5.9%, p < 0.05) than did the control group. Milk supplementation showed positive effects on bone mineral accretion when accounting for the changing skeletal size during growth. The effects were mainly on the lower limbs...
