Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Is a trabecular plate-like phenotype overrepresented in Chinese-American versus Caucasian women?
Answer: Using extreme phenotype selection, we defined a plate- and rod-like trabecular bone phenotype for the TPR ratio trait. The former phenotype is more common in Chinese-American women, while the latter is more typical of Caucasian women. The robustness of these phenotypic associations after controlling for differences in constitution and lifestyle suggest that the TPR ratio may have a genetic basis and that the extreme phenotypes defined in this analysis can be utilized for future studies.
Output (English): yes
