Abstract Background: Osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are age-related diseases. According to some studies, patients with CVD have a higher risk of bone loss. This retrospective study intended to reveal the correlation between osteoporosis and CVD in Chinese women. Although epidemiological evidence has provided evidence of the relationship between the two, it lacks clinical data in southeast China.Methods: The 2873 participants completed the baseline survey from January 2007 to October 2019, and 2496 were included in this retrospective study. We divided all subjects into the osteoporosis group and the non-osteoporosis group based on their bone mineral density. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to examine bone mineral density. The general information came from the questionnaire survey and medical records. Results: According to the criterion, the osteoporosis group had 799 subjects, with a mean age of 64.19 years. The non-osteoporosis group had 1697 subjects, with a mean age of 61.03 years. Subjects in the osteoporosis group had a significantly higher prevalence of hypertension and coronary heart disease. Besides, there was a higher probability of drinking tea and drinking milk in the osteoporosis group. In correlation analysis, the occurrence of osteoporosis correlated positively with hypertension and coronary heart disease. Logistic regression analysis showed that the odds of osteoporosis was high if participants had hypertension, coronary heart disease, or drank tea and drank milk. Conclusions: This study indicated that patients with osteoporosis had a higher prevalence of CVD in Chinese women, and CVD is one of the hazard factors for osteoporosis.
