However, chronic diseases may be associated with abnormal muscle force relative to muscle size. The muscle-bone unit was examined in 64 children and adolescents with new-onset Crohn's disease (CD), 54 with chronic kidney disease (CKD), 51 treated with glucocorticoids for nephrotic syndrome (NS), and 264 healthy controls. Muscle torque was assessed by isometric ankle dynamometry. Calf muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) and tibia cortical section modulus (Zp) were assessed by quantitative CT. Log-linear regression was used to determine the relations among muscle CSA, muscle torque, and Zp, adjusted for tibia length, age, Tanner stage, sex, and race. Muscle CSA and muscle torque-relative-to-muscle CSA were significantly lower than controls in advanced CKD (CSA \u22128.7%, p\u2009=\u20090.01; torque \u221222.9%, p\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001) and moderate-to-severe CD (CSA \u221214.1%, p\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001; torque \u22127.6%, p\u2009=\u20090.05), but not in NS. Zp was 11.5% lower in advanced CKD (p\u2009=\u20090.005) compared to controls, and this deficit was attenuated to 6.7% (p\u2009=\u20090.05) with adjustment for muscle CSA. With additional adjustment for muscle torque and body weight, Zp was 5.9% lower and the difference with controls was no longer significant (p\u2009=\u20090.09). In participants with moderate-to-severe CD, Zp was 6.8% greater than predicted (p\u2009=\u20090.01) given muscle CSA and torque deficits (R2\u2009=\u20090.92), likely due to acute muscle loss in newly-diagnosed patients. Zp did not differ in NS, compared with controls. In conclusion, muscle torque relative to muscle CSA was significantly lower in CKD and CD, compared with controls, and was independently associated with Zp. Future studies are needed to determine if abnormal muscle strength contributes to progressive bone deficits in chronic disease, independent of muscle area. \u00a9 2014 American Society for Bone and
