ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the possible risk factors that influence bone mineral density (BMD) in the elderly man with type-2 diabetes.Methods Sixty elderly man with type-2 diabetes were subjected to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry to evaluate the BMD at lumbar spine ( LS),and femoral neck (FN).Fasting blood and urine samples were taken to check the biochemical levels about bone metablism and blood sugar.The correlations between BMD and other factors were analyzed.Results In this group of patients,the percentage of osteoporosis and osteoponia was 20% and 53.3% in LS or FN site,respectively.Age,Weight,and HbA1c were correlated with BMD.Weight of them had the best correlation with BMD at LS( r =0.254,P <0.01 ),whereas,HbA1c had the best correlation with BMD at FN( r =-0.224,P <0.01 ).Conclusions Age,Weight,and HbAlc c were correlated with BMD of elderly man with type-2 diabetes.
