Densidade mineral óssea vertebral e femoral de 724 mulheres brancas brasileiras: influência da idade e do peso corporal

Abstract: (i) Vertebral and femoral BMD of this Brazilian population varied with age similarly to other white female populations; (ii) provided that appropriate corrections are made for BW, the BMD of Brazilian women is comparable to the BMD of North-Americans; and (iii) the BW is important both in acquisition and decline of bone mass, as it influences the relation BMD-age.

“…While some studies reported no significant influence of age on BMD within this age range [22, 23], other studies have shown an inverse correlation between age and BMD at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and forearm [24], or a direct correlation between age and lumbar spine BMD [25, 26] and a negative correlation at the femoral neck [26]. Additionally, the age at which peak BMD is reached may differ between sites and different populations [2730]. Body weight [3133] and BMI [31, 34, 35] are strong predictors of BMD.…”

“…Esses dados são consis-tentes com o diagnóstico de osteoporose segundo os critérios adotados pela World Health Organization 12 e enfatizam o alto risco de fraturas nessa população. Estudos anteriores observaram também associação entre peso corporal e DMO, tanto na coluna como no colo do fêmur 16,17 . Além disso, outro importante estudo também identificou associação entre idosos com baixo peso corporal e osteoporose nas regiões do colo do fêmur e quadril total, com T-score de -3 e -2,7, respectivamente 18 , demonstrando a influência do peso corporal na massa óssea.…”

“…The subject has been recently reviewed [3]. A short number of reports dealing with bone mass measurements [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] and thefrequency of osteoporotic fractures [13][14][15][16][17] in relatively limited areas and populations will be reviewed here. Tables 2-4 and Figs.…”

“…Tables 2-4 and Figs. 1-3 summarize the results reported from Buenos Aires, San Pablo and Bogotä [6,7,9,11,12] on the bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, femoral neck and total skeleton obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in normal women. The same type of equipment was used in the four studies (DPXL).…”
