Effects of various treatments on trabecular bone microarchitecture. SD rats subjected to SHAM or OVX plus GLU injection were treated with PBS control, EBBL, NBL, FD and BBL, respectively. The right femora of rats (n = 6) were analyzed by a high-resolution Micro-CT machine (SIMENS healthcare, Berlin and Munich, Germany) to get 3-dimensional Micro-CT images of the trabecular bone microarchitecture (a, I) and 2-dimensional Micro-CT images (a, II) of femoral necks. The quantitative characterization index, including BV/TV (b), BS/BV (c), Tb.Th (d), Tb.N (e), Tb.Sp (f) and trabecular BMD (g) were analyzed by Micro View software. Values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01)
