Study Results

Background: Fragility fractures are one of the major health problems. Many factors are associated with it some of which are modifiable and some are not. If we know the value of T-score at which fragility fracture occurs and associated factors responsible for fragility fracture than we will be able to control this burden to the society. The objective of this study is to determine association between fragility fracture and bone mineral density (BMD) using bone densitometry and to know the value of T-score at which fragility fracture occurs. Methods: Patients presenting to B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences with fragility fracture of distal end of radius, fracture around hip and vertebral fractures were included in the study to know the value of T-score at which fragility fracture occurs and their associated risk factor. Patients less than 50 years of age, high energy trauma fracture and pathological fractures were excluded from the study. Results: We found that being multipara, smoking, alcohol consumption, post-hysterectomized patients and steroid intake had significant association with fragility fracture. There was no association with religion, geographic location, associated medical illness, age, sex, associated injury and site of injury. Conclusion: The patients with risk factor for fragility fracture like smoking, alcohol consumption, multipara women, post-hysterectomized women and those who are on long term steroid therapy should undergo BMD test and the value at -3.254 are prone to fragility fracture and should be treated accordingly.

Abstract Introduction Spine and hip bone mineral density (BMD) have previously been shown to predict the risk of sustaining future fractures. Although these have been shown in population studies, there is a paucity of trials looking at the relationship between BMD and 10 year probability of major osteoporotic fractures (Using FRAX UK without BMD) in patients with previous fragility fractures. Aims To evaluate the correlation between spinal T-score and an absolute 10 year probability of sustaining a major osteoporotic fracture (using FRAX without BMD) in patients with prior fragility fractures. Methods A retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 202 patients (29 males and 173 females) with prior fragility fractures attending a fracture prevention clinic between January and August 2019 was performed. Patients with pathological and high impact traumatic fractures were excluded. The BMD at the spine was determined using the lowest T-score of the vertebrae from L1 to L4. Using the FRAX (UK) without BMD, the absolute 10 year probability of sustaining a major osteoporotic fracture was calculated for each patient. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26 software. Results The mean T-score at the spine was −1.15 (SD +/− 1.90) for all patients, −0.68 (SD +/− 0.45) for males and − 1.23 (SD +/− 0.14) for females. The mean FRAX score without BMD for major osteoporotic fracture was 18.5% (SD +/− 8.84) for all patients, 11.41% (SD +/−0.62) and 19.7% (SD +/−0.68) for males and females respectively. Pearson correlation coefficient showed a statistically significant, slightly negative correlation between spinal T- score and the FRAX (UK) without BMD (r = −0.157; p < 0.05). Correlation was not statistically significant when males (r = 0.109; p = 0.59) and females (r = 0.148; p = 0.053) were considered independently. Conclusion In patients with prior fragility fracture spinal BMD has a statistically significant negative correlation with an absolute 10 year probability of sustaining a major osteoporotic fracture.

Analyzed literature data demonstrates the influence of fracture in individuals of different age on the risk of post-traumatic osteopenia and osteoporosis, as well as increase in the risk of the recurrent fractures. It is proved that the fracture leads to a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) not only in the injured limb, but also other parts of the skeleton. In majority of prospective studies and metaanalysis it was shown that there is no full recovery of BMD after sustained fracture. Posttraumatic osteopenia and osteoporosis increase the risk of re-fracture in the future.
