title: Bone marrow cell content and osteoclasts in crista biopsies.
abstract: The bone marrow cell content was investigated by counting the percentage of cells in the areas between the trabeculae in crista biopsies. There was a decrease in the percentage of cells in bone marrow in osteoporotic women compared with our normal material. In patients undergoing haemodialysis there was a positive correlation between bone marrow cell content and osteoclasts, which could indicate a possible connection between osteoclasts and bone marrow cells.
