RESUMEN
Objective:To study the risk of refracture after osteoporotic vertebral fracture with changes in blood calcium and bone metabolism.Methods:260 patients with osteoporotic vertebral fracture treated in our hospital from Feb. 2018 to Feb. 2020 were selected for study. All patients were treated with kyphoplasty. The clinical curative effect, blood calcium, PINP, and β-CTX level changes were observed, postoperative recurrence was followed up. Clinical data of fracture patients were collected, risk factors of osteoporotic vertebral fractures in patients with postoperative recurrence of fracture were analyzed, receiver-operating characteristic curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of blood calcium, PINP, andβ-CTX in postoperative recurrence of osteoporotic vertebral fracture.Results:The total clinical response rate was 95.77% (249/260) after treatment. After treatment, serum calcium, PINP, and β-CTX decreased with time, and the difference was significant ( P<0.05) . All patients were followed up for 6 months. There were 81 cases (31.15%) suffering postoperative fracture and 179 cases (68.85%) without fracture. According to univariate analysis, there were no statistically significant differences in age, sex, BMI, history of trauma, underlying disease, site of surgical vertebral body, segment of surgical vertebral body, correction angle of sagittal kyphosis, or amount of bone cement injection between the two groups ( P>0.05) . Long-term history of glucocorticoid use, preoperative fractured vertebra number, surgical vertebra number, blood calcium, PINP, β-CTX, fracture compression rate, vertebra height recovery rate, reinforced vertebra number, and bone cement leakage were correlated with postoperative recurrence of fracture in patients with osteoporotic vertebral fracture ( P<0.05) . Multivariate Logistic analysis showed that long-term history of glucocorticoid use, preoperative number of fractured vertebrae, surgical vertebra number, fracture compression rate, vertebral height recovery rate, enhanced vertebral body number, bone cement leakage, blood calcium, PINP, and β-CTX were all independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence of osteoporotic vertebral fracture ( P<0.05) . ROC curve results showed that AUC, 95%CI and truncation value were 0.820, 0.770-0.871 and 2.12mmol/L vs 0.915, 0.873-0.957 and 45.51 ng/mL vs 0.973, 0.957-0.988, and 463.29 for serum calcium, PINP, and β-CTX respectively in predicting the recurrence of osteoporotic vertebral fracture. Conclusion:Kyphoplasty has a significant effect on osteoporotic vertebral fracture, and it can effectively improve the serum calcium, PINP, and β-CTX, which have a certain monitoring value for postoperative recurrence of fracture.
