Note 'b' beneath table: "The 10% per year approximation for the entire skeleton is based on an average 4% turnover per year in cortical bone, which represents roughly 75% of the entire skeleton and an average 28% turnover per year in trabecular bone, which represents roughly 25% of the skeleton (0.75×4=3 and 0.25×28=7 3+7=10)." |
