The objective of the present work is to estimate the prevalence of low bone mass in Indian men and women for the assessment of osteoporosis and fracture risk using quantitative ultrasound and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and carryout a comparative evaluation for early prediction of osteoporosis. Data collected in this study is analyzed to assess the diagnostic performance of the ultrasound and how its performance compares to DEXA bone mineral density (BMD). Quantitative ultrasound assessment of osteoporosis is carried out by measuring broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) and speed of sound (SOS) through calcaneus bone to provide a clinical measure called the stiffness index (SI). The SI is a measure of bone density used to predict the risk of bone fracture due to osteoporosis. Bone mineral density (BMD) measurement is performed in lumbar region (L1–L4) of the spine in anterior-posterior direction using DEXA. In both studies the data is found to be significant in men and women subjects with p<0.0005 and percentage bone loss in men and women are significantly matching in both studies. Ultrasound performance correlates moderately well with DEXA (r=0.60 to 0.68) and provides comparable diagnostic sensitivity to spine BMD in predicting osteoporotic fractures.

Background:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex inflammatory disease that modifies body composition. Using the dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in RA patients could be a method for body composition changes detection.Objectives:To study the body composition using DXA in patients with RA.Methods:The study involved 79 women with RA, median age 60 [55; 65] years. The bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry using «Discovery A» (Hologic, USA). Assessment of body composition was carried out, using the program «Whole body». Sarcopenia (SP) was diagnosed as a decrease in appendicular mass index (AMI) <6.0 kg/m2. Osteoporosis (OP) was diagnosed as a decrease in T-score <-2.5 SD. Osteosarcopenia was determined when T-score was <-1.0 SD, AMI was <6.0 kg/m2, osteosarcopenic obesity - T-score was <-1.0 SD, AMI was <6.0 kg/m2and total fat was >35%.Results:The mean duration of RA was 9 [3; 11] years. The mean body mass index (BMI) was 27.6±4.8 kg/m2. Disease activity score in 28 joints-erythrocyte sedimentation rate was 4.5±1.3 points for the group. 39 (49.3%) patients used oral glucocorticoids continuously. Appendicular muscle mass and AMI were on average 17.8±3.0 kg and 6.8±1.0 kg/m2, respectively. AMI <6 kg/m2was detected in 20 (25.3%) patients. 56 (70.9%) women with RA had total fat > 35%, while only 22 (27.8%) of women with RA had obesity according to BMI (BMI >30 kg/m2). Isolated OP was found in 13 (16.5%), osteosarcopenia in 7 (8.9%) and osteosarcopenic obesity in 13 (16.5%) patients RA. No cases with isolated sarcopenia or sarcopenic obesity were detected. Only 3 (3.8%) patients did not have appendicular muscle mass, AMI and BMD decrease and overfat or obesity.Conclusion:About 97% women with RA had abnormal body composition phenotype: 16,5% - OP, 8.9% -osteosarcopenia, 16,5% - osteosarcopenic obesity and 54,4% - overfat.Disclosure of Interests:None declared
