Depressive symptoms (GDS-15) and functional status (Barthel Index) were extracted from routine geriatric assessments.

Although statistically significant, the observed effect sizes were modest. The multivariable model explained a moderate proportion of BMD variability (adjusted R\u00b2 = 0.22).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Functional and psychological characteristics were independently associated with bone mineral density in hospitalized older adults.
