Background:The relationship between osteoporosis and osteoarthritis (OA) is complex and contradictory. Some studies suggest a protective effect of OA in osteoporosis [1-2]. However, other studies show that increased bone mineral density (BMD) in OA not only does not reduce the risk of fractures, but can also increase it [3-4].Objectives:To assess the 10-year probability of osteoporotic fractures using the FRAX calculator in women with OA of the knee joint.Methods:The study included 22 women (average age 63.7±1.01 years) diagnosed with ACP of the knee joint according to the ACR criteria (1991). The Control Group included 24 conditionally healthy women without OA knee joint, with an average age of 63.6±1.37 years.The BMD (g/cm2) and the T-criterion (standard deviation, SD) of the neck of the femur and lumbar spine (LI-LIV) were evaluated by the method of two-power X-ray absorption (DXA) (apparatus «Lunar Prodigy Primo», USA). 10-year probability of major osteoporotic fractures (clinically significant fracture of the spine, distal fracture of the forearm, fracture of the proximal femur, or fracture of the shoulder) and fracture of the proximal thigh with the FRAX calculator (version 3.5 for Russian population).Results:An osteopenic syndrome in the cohort under investigation was found in 42 (91.3%) patients, of whom osteopenia in 24 (52.2%) women and osteoporosis in 18 (39.1%). A normal BMD is registered in 4 (8.7%) patients.In the group of patients with knee joint OA, only 2 (9.1%) of women had a normal BMD, 11 (50.0%) of osteoporosis, and 9 (40.9%). Osteopenic syndrome is generally found in 20 (90,9%) patients.In the control group, osteopenic syndrome has been diagnosed in 22 (91,7%) of whom: osteopenia in 13 (54.2%), osteoporosis in 9 (37.5%) patients. Two (8.3%) women had a normal BMD. There were no statistically significant differences in the structure of the osteopenic syndrome among the studied groups (p=0.961).An analysis of the 10-year probability of major osteoporotic fractures found that women with OA knee joint had the above probability of 12.3±0.91, and in the control group 14.2±1.06 (p=0.085).The 10-year probability of fracture of the proximal femur in women with OA was statistically less significant than in the control group: 1.55 (0.70;1.98) and 2.10 (1.20;2.95), (p=0.031), respectively.Conclusion:The total incidence of the osteopenic syndrome in the cohort under investigation was 91.3% (90.9% in women with OA, 91.7% in the control group). The frequency of registration of osteopenia and osteoporosis in women with OA did not differ statistically significantly from the control group. The probability of major osteoporotic fractures within 10 years was comparable in these groups. The probability of a proximal femur fracture in women with OA was statistically significant, but not clinically significant, compared to the control group.References:[1]Yamamoto Y, Turkiewicz A, Wingstrand H, et al.

Objective: The aim of the study was to determine whether heart failure is associated with an increased risk of major osteoporotic fractures that is independent of bone mineral density (BMD). Methods: We conducted a population-based cohort study in Manitoba, Canada, by linking a clinical registry of all adults 50 yr of age and older who underwent initial BMD testing from 1998–2009 with administrative databases. We collected osteoporosis risk factors, comorbidities, medications, and BMD results. Validated algorithms identified recent-onset heart failure before the BMD test and new fractures after. The main outcome was time to major osteoporotic fractures (i.e. clinical vertebrae, distal forearm, humerus, and hip), and multivariable proportional hazards models were used for analyses. Results: The cohort consisted of 45,509 adults; 1,841 (4%) had recent-onset heart failure. Subjects with heart failure were significantly (P < 0.001) older (74 vs. 66 yr) and had more previous fractures (21 vs. 13%) and lower total hip BMD [T-score, −1.3 (sd 1.3) vs. −0.9 (sd 1.2)] than those without. There were 2703 incident fractures over the 5-yr observation. Overall, 10% of heart failure subjects had incident major fractures compared with 5% of those without [unadjusted hazard ratio (HR), 2.45; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.11–2.85]. Adjustment for osteoporosis risk factors, comorbidities, and medications attenuated but did not eliminate this association (HR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.11–1.60), nor did further adjustment for total hip BMD (HR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.06–1.53). Conclusions: Heart failure is associated with a 30% increase in major fractures that is independent of traditional risk factors and BMD, and it also identifies a high-risk population that may benefit from increased screening and treatment for osteoporosis.

Abstract Context Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with an increased risk of fracture, but it is not clear which diabetes and nondiabetes risk factors may be most important. Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate risk factors for incident major osteoporotic fractures (MOFs) of the hip, wrist, and humerus in African American (AA), Hispanic (HIS), and Caucasian (CA) subjects with DM. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of 18 210 subjects with DM (7298 CA, 7009 AA and 3903 HIS) at least 40 years of age, being followed at a large healthcare system in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Results In a global model in CA with DM, MOF were associated with dementia (HR 4.16; 95% CI, 2.13-8.12), OSA (HR 3.35; 95% CI, 1.78-6.29), COPD (HR 2.43; 95% CI, 1.51-3.92), and diabetic neuropathy (HR 2.52; 95% CI, 1.41-4.50). In AA, MOF were associated with prior MOF (HR 13.67; 95% CI, 5.48-34.1), dementia (HR 3.10; 95% CI, 1.07-8.98), glomerular filtration rate (GFR) less than 45 (HR 2.05; 95% CI, 1.11-3.79), thiazide use (HR 0.54; 95% CI, 0.31-0.93), metformin use (HR 0.59; 95% CI, 0.36-0.97), and chronic steroid use (HR 5.03; 95% CI, 1.51-16.7). In HIS, liver disease (HR 3.06; 95% CI, 1.38-6.79) and insulin use (HR 2.93; 95% CI, 1.76-4.87) were associated with MOF. Conclusion In patients with diabetes, the risk of fracture is related to both diabetes-specific variables and comorbid conditions, but these relationships vary by race/ethnicity.
