Using random effects model,the effect of isoflavones on bone mineral density(BMD) regarding menopausal status and isoflavone dose revealed higher weighted mean difference changes were found in postmenopausal women and isoflavone dose above 75 mg/d.Subgroup analysis of trials with menopausal status,supplement type,isoflavone dose and intervention duration that used soy isoflavone extracts resulted in significant diflerent overall effect of DPD using by random effects model.Sensitivity analysis indicated that the effect of soy isoflavones on BMD and DPD was robust.Conclusions:The present meta-analysis reveals that soy isoflavone supplements significandy increase bone mineral density and decrease the bone,resorption marker urinary DPD.It shows no significant effect on bone formation markers serum bone alkaline phosphatase. The significant effect of soy isoflavones on BMD and urinary DPD is relative to menopausal status, supplement type,isoflavone dose and intervention duration.展开更多
