Bone histomorphometric static parameters were assessed as presented in a recent report from our group.34 In brief, a 400-µm × 600-µm ROI located 150 µm below the growth plate of the femoral metaphysis (n=6 for each) was used for assessing the following static parameters: bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), and trabecular separation (Tb.Sp). Whenever possible, abbreviations and calculations followed the guidelines of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) Histomorphometry Nomenclature Committee.35
