Menopause diabetes bone

BACKGROUND: Osteopenia and osteoporosis are posing a long-term influence on the aging population's health contributing to a higher risk of mortality, loss of autonomy, hospitalization, and huge health system costs and social burden. Therefore, more pertinent data are needed to demonstrate the current state of osteoporosis. OBJECTIVE: This sampling survey seeks to assess the trends in the prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis in a Chinese Han population. METHODS: A community-based cross-sectional study involving 16,377 participants used a multistage sampling method...

Most postmenopausal women who sustain fragility fracture (Fx) have their areal bone mineral density (aBMD) above the osteoporosis threshold. A sizeable proportion of them have normal aBMD. The aim of this study was to prospectively investigate the association of fragility Fx with bone microarchitecture (MA) assessed by high resolution peripheral computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in postmenopausal women without low BMD. At the 14th annual follow-up of the OFELY study, we have measured bone MA at the distal radius and tibia with HR-pQCT in addition to areal BMD with DXA, in 586 postmenopausal women...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The objective of this review is to summarize the literature on the prevalence and diagnosis of obesity and its metabolic profile, including bone metabolism, focusing on the main inflammatory and turnover bone mediators that better characterize metabolically healthy obesity phenotype, and to summarize the therapeutic interventions for obesity with their effects on bone health. RECENT FINDINGS: Osteoporosis and fracture risk not only increase with age and menopause but also with metabolic diseases, such as diabetes mellitus...

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship between the polymorphism and mutation of rs7125942 and rs3736228 locus in the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) genotype and bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women in Xinjiang, China, to provide a basis for prevention and treatment of the disease. METHODS: According to the results of dual-energy X-ray (DEXA) determination of BMD, the 136 subjects were divided into three groups: Group A: normal bone mass, Group B: osteopenia, Group C: osteoporosis...

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes is often linked with osteoporosis (T2DOP), a condition that accelerates bone degeneration and increases the risk of fractures. Unlike conventional menopausal osteoporosis, the diabetic milieu exacerbates the likelihood of fractures and osteonecrosis. In particular poliumoside (Pol), derived from Callicarpa kwangtungensis Chun, has shown promising anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Yet, its influence on T2DOP remains to be elucidated. PURPOSE: The focus of this study was to elucidate the influence of Pol in HGHF-associated ferroptosis and its implications in T2DOP...

BACKGROUND: With effective antiretroviral therapy, people with HIV (PWH) are living longer and aging; the majority of PWH in the United States are now over the age of 50 and in women have gone through the menopause transition. Menopause potentiates skeletal bone loss at the spine, hip, and radius in PWH. The alveolar bone which surronds the teeth is different than long bones because it is derived from the neural crest. However, few studies have assessed the oral health and alveolar bone in middle aged and older women with HIV...

Since its discovery, much attention has been drawn to irisin's potential role in metabolic and reproductive diseases. This narrative review summarizes and updates the possible role played by this fascinating molecule in different physiological (puberty and menopause) and pathological (polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA), endometriosis, and gestational diabetes) conditions that can affect women throughout their entire lives. Irisin appears to be an important factor for the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis activation, and appears to play a role in the timing of puberty onset...

Bone fragility is a complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that has been identified in recent decades. Trabecular bone score (TBS) appears to be more accurate than bone mineral density (BMD) in diabetic bone disease, particularly in menopausal women with T2DM, to independently capture the fracture risk. Our purpose was to provide the most recent overview on TBS-associated clinical data in T2DM. The core of this narrative review is based on original studies (PubMed-indexed journals, full-length, English articles)...

BACKGROUND: The relationship between precocious or early puberty and its treatment has received significant research attention, yielding diverse outcomes. This short review aims to comprehensively analyze and summarize research articles to elucidate the potential link between precocious or early pubertal onset (CPP) and crucial health factors. METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of studies published from -January 2000 to March 2023, sourced from databases of Medline, PubMed, Google Scholar and Web of Science...

INTRODUCTION: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is an endocrine disorder wherein enlargement of one or more of the parathyroid glands causes autonomous overproduction of the parathyroid hormone (PTH), which leads to high serum calcium levels. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to compare the clinical, laboratory, and operative variables between premenopausal (pre-M) and postmenopausal (post-M) women with PHPT. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis of the data of female patients who underwent surgery for PHPT at a single center, from January 2011 to December 2020, was done...

BACKGROUND: Bone and muscle mass decline after menopause. The risk of osteoarthritis (OA), sarcopenia, and osteoporosis increases in later life. Our objective aimed to assess the possible factors affecting osteoarthritis in menopausal women. METHODS: This is a registry study of osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and osteoarthritis. All subjects accepted bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition studies, and X-rays of both knees were performed. A medical history was taken and biochemical data were recorded...

This review focuses on providing physicians with insights into the complex relationship between bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) and bone health, in the context of weight loss through caloric restriction or metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS), in people living with obesity (PwO). We summarize the complex relationship between BMAT and bone health, provide an overview of noninvasive imaging techniques to quantify human BMAT, and discuss clinical studies measuring BMAT in PwO before and after weight loss. The relationship between BMAT and bone is subject to variations based on factors such as age, sex, menopausal status, skeletal sites, nutritional status, and metabolic conditions...

The maintenance of various physiological cellular processes requires mineral magnesium (Mg). The purpose of the study was to determine a possible association between Mg level and vitamin D levels, bone mineral density (BMD), chronic diseases, and radiographic stage in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The study included 98 individuals (62 female and 36 male) who had been diagnosed with at least grade 1 knee OA. Age, sex, smoking, body mass index (BMI), family history of osteoporosis, menopausal status, duration of menopause, the presence of chronic diseases (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidaemia, coronary artery disease, hypothyroidism) and radiological stage of knee OA were gathered from all patients...

INTRODUCTION: Late-onset hypogonadism is the clinical entity characterised by low testosterone concentrations associated with clinical symptoms in the absence of organic disease in ageing men. It has been associated with metabolic syndrome, reduced bone mineral density, and increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality risk. Although testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) reverses most of these conditions in young hypogonadal men, the risk/benefit ratio of TRT in older men is debatable...

UNLABELLED: We examined longitudinal changes in BMD among women in the mid-life starting metformin. Study subjects were 57 years old (mean), and 36% were White. Women initiating metformin were similar to noninitiators. During the 3-year follow-up, BMD loss at all anatomic areas was similar between groups and in subgroups including baseline fasting blood glucose. PURPOSE/INTRODUCTION: Women with type 2 diabetes have higher bone mineral density (BMD), experience slower BMD loss, but have increased fracture risk...

In post-menopausal women, aged individuals, and patients with diabetes mellitus or chronic renal disease, bone mineral density (BMD) decreases while the vasculature accumulates arterial calcifications (ACs). AC can be found in the tunica intima and/or in the tunica media. Prospective studies have shown that patients with initially low BMD and/or the presence of fragility fractures have at follow-up a significantly increased risk for coronary and cerebrovascular events and for overall cardiovascular mortality...

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the correlation of sarcopenic obesity with various cardiometabolic risk factors and fracture risk in middle-aged Korean women. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, the medical records of 1,775 women who had visited Pusan National University Hospital for routine health screenings from 2010 to 2016 were reviewed. The patients were divided into four groups as follows: group 1, nonsarcopenic, nonobese (NS-NO); group 2, nonsarcopenic, obese (NS-O); group 3, sarcopenic, nonobese (S-NO); and group 4, sarcopenic, obese (S-O)...

Sleep disturbances are common and may impact fracture risk directly by influencing bone turnover or indirectly through shared risk factors or mediators. To investigate the association between self-reported sleep disturbances across the menopausal transition (MT) and fractures, we prospectively studied 3101 women enrolled in the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN). At each of 14 study visits spaced approximately 18 months apart, a standardized validated scale ascertained trouble falling asleep, waking up several times during the night, and waking up earlier than planned...

UNLABELLED: This study aimed to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular microarchitecture, and proximal hip geometry in diabetic postmenopausal women, where BMD alone cannot reflect bone strength adequately. We found significantly lower trabecular bone score and BMD at the distal radius and total forearm in diabetic subjects compared to controls. PURPOSE: The limitations resulting from the exclusive assessment of bone mineral density (BMD) in people with diabetes can lead to underestimation of microarchitectural and geometric changes, both of which play an essential role in the fracture risk...

Vitamin D (VD) is known to play an important role in the maintenance of calcium homeostasis and bone metabolism. In recent years, there has also been a growing interest in Vitamin D for health issues beyond the bones. Menopausal women are at risk of reduced bone density and increased risk of fracture due to a decline in estrogen levels. There is also an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and hyperlipidaemia due to impaired lipid metabolism. The menopausal and emotional symptoms due to menopause are also increasingly prominent...
