For comparison, typical values for patients with OI type I are given (19). P4 did not receive tetracycline labeling.

Abbreviations: Aj.AR, adjusted apposition rate; BFR, bone formation rate; Ct.Wi, cortical thickness (width); MAR, mineral apposition rate; Mlt, mineralization lag time; MS, mineralizing surface; N/A, not applicable; N.Oc, osteoclast number; Ob.S, OB surface; Oc.S, osteoclast surface; OS, osteoid surface; O.Th, osteoid thickness; OV, osteoid volume; Tb.N, trabecular number; Tb.Th, trabecular thickness.
