Clinically, areal and volumetric BMD (aBMD and vBMD) do not accurately predict risk fracture, suggesting that site-specific changes at the microstructural level are important determinants of bone strength.
Individuals with the same bone mineral density (BMD) measured by two dimensional dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans have different risks for fracture, suggesting that factors other than density, such as microstructural architecture, are important determinants of skeletal strength [ 9].
Microstructural shape determinants such as elongation of cells and voids and anisotropy of the tissue are correlated to each other, but mostly uncorrelated to other microstructural descriptors and functional properties.
Biology and genetics are considered the real determinants of behavior.
These are major determinants of health, disease, and cost.
What are other important determinants of value?
What are determinants of perceptions?

In this study, we also analyse the determinants of innovation.
