Journal Title: Міжнародний ендокринологічний журнал - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 75
Abstract
Objective: to determine the incidence of osteoporosis and low bone mineral density (BMD) in Ukrainian women with obesity and metabolic syndrome. Materials and methods. The study involved 1,605 persons, whose mean age was 62.31 ± 9.52 years, the average body mass — 76.48 ± 14.65 kg. All women were in postmenopausal period. Patients were divided into three groups. First group (800 people) included women without obesity, second one (572 persons) — with obesity. Third group (233 people) consisted of patients with metabolic syndrome. BMD of lumbar spine and femoral neck was measured by dual-energy X-ray absortiometer (Prodigy, 2005). Conclusion about normal BMD, osteoporosis and low BMD was made according to the ISCD (2007) criteria for official position (updated in 2015). Results. The incidence of osteoporosis and low BMD in women from the second and third groups were compared with those in the first group. We have found no significant differences in performance of BMD between patients of second and third groups unlike the first group. Conclusions. In patients with obesity and metabolic syndrome, the prevalence of osteoporosis and low BMD is significantly lower as compared with the group of women without obesity, and metabolic syndrome and obesity have equally positive effect on bone mineral density.
