Background:The relationship between lean mass (LM), fat mass (FM) and bone mineral density (BMD) remains controversial. Some population studies have emphasized the positive association between them, while others have found an inverse relationship. RA patients are characterized by a decrease in muscle mass and an increase in fat mass. Such changes in body composition may be associated with low BMD.Objectives:To study the relationship between BMD, LM and FM in postmenopausal women with RA.Methods:68 postmenopausal women with RA (median age 59 [54; 63] years) were included in the study. BMD and body composition were evaluated using two-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Correlation analysis between body composition parameters and BMD was performed with the Spearman method, correlation coefficients R for p<0.05 are presented.Results:The average L1-L4 BMD was 0,92±0,16 g/cm2, total hip BMD - 0,84±0,15 g/cm2 and femoral neck - 0,73±0,13 g/cm2. 33 (48.5%) women had osteopenia, and 17 (25.0%) - osteoporosis (OP). Low appendicular LM was found in 5 (7.4%) and low appendicular muscle index (appendicular LM/height2, AMI) – in 10 (14.7%) patients. Overfat was revealed in 47 (69.1%) women, but only 20 (29.4%) women had BMI corresponding to obesity. The positive correlations between BMD in L1-L4, total hip and femoral neck regions and body weight (R=0.46, R=0.56 and R=0.50, respectively), trunk fat (R=0.4, R=0.51 and R=0.37, respectively), total FM (R=0.27, R=0.43 and R=0.34, respectively), trunk LM (R=0.55, R=0.54 and R=0.51, respectively), total LM (R=0.51, R=0.50 and R=0.52, respectively), appendicular LM (R=0.31, R=0.29 and R=0.37, respectively) and AMI (R=0.26, R=0.33 and R=0.51, respectively) were found out. In the multivariate linear regression analysis total LM was associated with BMD of lumbar spine (β=0.638, p=0.001) and total hip (β=0.473, p=0.008), and AMI - with femoral neck BMD (β=0.360; p=0.014). We found that FM hadn’t a significant effect on BMD in any region.Conclusion:73.5% of patients with RA had a reduced BMD, and 14.7% women – low AMI. LM was positively associated with BMDs in different regions of interest, but FM had no effect on BMD. Further researches are needed to identify associations between body composition, inflammatory activity and bone health in patients with RA.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract Background The relationship between renal function and bone mineral density (BMD) is controversial. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship of renal function with BMD and osteoporosis risk in healthy postmenopausal Chinese women. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in 776 healthy postmenopausal Chinese women. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure BMDs. Clinical, demographic, and biochemical data were obtained at the time of image acquisition. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using a Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation. Results Women with eGFR levels of at least 90 ml/min/1.73m2 had a lower prevalence of osteoporosis compared with women with decreased eGFR levels (60 ml/min/1.73 m2 ≤ eGFR < 90.0 ml/min/1.73 m2). BMDs at femoral neck and total hip were significantly lower in the lower eGFR class than the higher class (0.717 ± 0.106 vs 0.744 ± 0.125 g/cm2, P < 0.01; 0.796 ± 0.116 vs 0.823 ± 0.129 g/cm2, P < 0.01, respectively). eGFR was positively correlated with BMDs at femoral neck and total hip in unadjusted analysis (P < 0.05). After controlling for age, menopausal duration and body mass index (BMI), decreased eGFR was not associated with osteoporosis risk. Conclusions After adjustments for age, menopausal duration and BMI, the decline in renal function was not independently associated with osteoporosis risk in healthy postmenopausal Chinese women.

AbstractManagement of diabetes-related foot ulceration (DFU) includes pressure offloading resulting in a period of reduced activity. The metabolic effects of this are unknown. This study aims to investigate changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition 12 weeks after hospitalisation for DFU. A longitudinal, prospective, observational study of 22 people hospitalised for DFU was conducted. Total body, lumbar spine, hip and forearm BMD, and total lean and fat mass were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) during and 12 weeks after hospitalisation for DFU. Significant losses in total hip BMD of the ipsilateral limb (− 1.7%, p < 0.001), total hip BMD of the contralateral limb (− 1.4%, p = 0.005), femoral neck BMD of the ipsilateral limb (− 2.8%, p < 0.001) and femoral neck BMD of the contralateral limb (− 2.2%, p = 0.008) were observed after 12 weeks. Lumbar spine and forearm BMD were unchanged. HbA1c improved from 75 mmol/mol (9.2%) to 64 mmol/mol (8.0%) (p = 0.002). No significant changes to lean and fat mass were demonstrated. Total hip and femoral neck BMD decreased bilaterally 12 weeks after hospitalisation for DFU. Future research is required to confirm the persistence and clinical implications of these losses.

(1) Osteoporosis and sarcopenia are frequent pathologies among the geriatric population. The interlink between these two diseases is supported by their common pathophysiology. The aim is to explore the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition in women aged 75 or older. (2) From January 2016 to December 2019, women aged 75 or older of Caucasian ethnicity, who were addressed to perform a biphoton absorptiometry (DXA), were included in this observational study. Femoral neck T-score, lean mass, fat mass, and physical performances were measured. (3) The mean age of 101 patients included was 84.8 (±4.9) years old. Osteoporosis was present in 72% of patients. According to EWGSOP criteria, 37% of patients were sarcopenic. Osteosarcopenia was present in 34% of patients. The femoral neck T-score was significantly associated with fat mass (β = 0.02, 95% CI (0.01; 0.03), p < 0.05) in multivariable analysis. Osteosarcopenic patients had significantly lower fat mass (16.2 kg (±6.8) vs. 23.1 kg (±10.8), p < 0.001) and body mass index (BMI) (20.7 kg/m2 (±2.8) vs. 26.7 kg/m2 (±5.6), p < 0.001). (4) In postmenopausal women, fat mass is estimated to provide hormonal protection. While osteosarcopenia is described as a lipotoxic disease, fat mass and BMI would appear to protect against the risk of osteosarcopenia. This raises questions about the relevance of BMI and DXA.

Abstract Context: Bone mineral density (BMD) is positively associated with body weight. This association persists even at non-load bearing sites, suggesting that a nonmechanical factor such as an adipocyte-derived hormone may modulate BMD. Objective: The objective of the study was to evaluate the relationship between adiponectin, an adipocyte-derived hormone, and BMD. Design, Setting, Participants: A total of 1735 nondiabetic women were recruited from a large, population-based cohort (mean age, 50.0 yr). We employed linear regression methods to estimate the relationship between adiponectin and BMD. Main Outcome Measures: Percentage change in BMD (as measured at total hip, spine, femoral neck, and forearm) and markers of bone turnover associated with a doubling of fasting serum adiponectin levels were measured. Results: Employing age-adjusted analysis, each doubling of serum adiponectin was associated with a mean 2.7% decrease in BMD [total hip, −3.2% (95% confidence interval, −4.1, −2.3); femoral neck, −3.1% (−4.0, −2.1); forearm, −2.0 (−2.6, −1.4); spine, −2.6 (−3.5, −1.7)]. After adjustment for potential confounding factors, including BMI, serum leptin, central fat mass, hormone replacement therapy, smoking, and exercise, this relationship persisted, although decreased in magnitude. When stratified by menopausal status, the relationship between serum adiponectin and BMD strengthened in postmenopausal women but disappeared in premenopausal women. Serum adiponectin was positively associated with serum osteocalcin but not with urine deoxypyridinoline. Conclusions: After adjustment of measures of body fat, increasing levels of adiponectin were associated with a decrease in BMD, even at non-load bearing sites. These data suggest that adiponectin, an adipocyte-derived hormone, may play a role in bone metabolism through nonmechanical mechanisms and that this effect may be mediated by menopausal status.

Aim. To determine the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and total body composition in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes. Materials and Methods. The study included 78 women, from 50 to 70 years of age (median 63 years). Twenty women had normal body mass index (BMI), 29 ones were overweight and 29 had obesity. The body composition and BMD was studied by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Results. Women with normal BMD had higher BMI, total and truncal fat mass, as well lean mass as compared to women with osteoporosis and osteopenia (all p
