Background:
Osteoporosis is characterized by a low bone mass of bone tissue. If
osteoporosis is not treated properly, it will increase the high risk of
fracture. The common causes of fracture on osteoporosis condition due to
falls. This study aims to find the correlation between the risk of
osteoporosis with fall risk (ONTARIO) based on osteoporosis fracture risk
(FRAX)
Methods:
This study is an analytic study with a cross-sectional method. We collected
the sample using random cluster sampling in the six primary health care in
Malang on different times service since August–September 2021. Total patient
139, however only 132 patients were included in this study. After collecting
data is complete, we analyze using Chi-square tests.
Results:
The mean age of participants was 63.9 ± 7.14. with the age group was
dominated by the range of 60–64. It was found that the result of the FRAX
SCORE had a low-risk category for major fracture osteoporosis and risk hip
fracture. In contrast, from the OSTA score in this study, more than 68
participants (50.8%) were found medium and high-risk scores. Then, in
ONTARIO score of the risk fall assessment, and high score in 57 participants
(43.2%). If compared between OSTA and ONTARIO, there was a significant
relationship between OSTA score and ONTARIO score
(
p
< 0.000) with high-risk OSTA have a significant
relationship with a high risk of falling and vice versa.
Conclusion:
In this study, there was a relationship between the risk of high osteoporosis
and the risk of falling.
Introduction: Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome is a disease characterized by the formation of tumors or cysts in many different parts of the body caused by germline. The prevalence of this autosomal dominant condition is very rare. Understanding of clinical manifestasion and diagnostic criteria is needed.
Case Report: Female, 22-year-old was reffered from orthopaedic department suffered from blurred and misalignment of the left eye since 3 months ago . Based on indirect funduscopy examination, we found disc swelling with exudative retinal detachment on her left eye and orange-reddish retinal mass concluded as Retinal Capillary Hemangioblastoma (RCH) with tortuosity and dilatation of blood vessel on her right eye. The MRI showed multiple masses in cervical to lumbar vertebrae and multiple cyst on pancreatic gland.
Discussion: This patient had 1 ocular RCH, multiple spinal tumor and multiple pancreatic cysts with no confirmed family history, therefore almost fulfilling the diagnostic criteria of VHL. To further confirm the diagnosis, it was necessary to find other common comorbids of VHL such as gene testing of VHL heterozygous germline mutation. Interdisciplinary approach consists of not only diagnostic and treatment plans from one speciality department, but also the ones from other related divisions and departments.
Conclusion: Screening and interdiciplinary approach in managing Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome are required to be performed promptly.
