Abstract

Aim: To analyse the impact of age and body mass index (BMI) on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan results in postmenopausal women.

Methods: The study included 100 postmenopausal women who underwent the DXA procedure, out of which 50 had a normal BMI and 50 were overweight/obese. Data that were examined included age, BMI, T-score of the lumbar region and the femoral neck, as well as bone mineral density (BMD). Correlation results were presented as Pearson's correlation coefficient (r).

Results: The T2-score and BMD2 were significantly lower in older patients compared to younger ones (p=0.008 and p=0.007, respectively). Post hoc test results showed that the T2-score and BMD2 were significantly lower in patients ≥71 years of age compared to patients ≤59 years of age (p=0.006 and p=0.005, respectively). Also, T1- and T2-scores, as well as BMD1 and BMD2, were significantly higher in overweight/obese patients (p< 0.001 and p=0.003; p< 0.001 and p=0.002, respectively). The correlation between BMI and the T1-score was moderate (r=0.429), between BMI and the T2-score weak (r=0.348), between BMI and BMD1 moderate (r=0.431), and between BMI and BMD2 weak (r=0.344).

Conclusion: Our study showed that both age and BMI are important factors affecting DXA procedures and should be taken into account with each postmenopausal woman individually in everyday practice.

年龄和体重指数对绝经后妇女双能x线吸收仪扫描结果的影响。

目的：分析年龄和体重指数（BMI）对绝经后妇女双能 X 射线吸收测定法（DXA）扫描结果的影响：研究对象包括 100 名接受 DXA 扫描的绝经后妇女，其中 50 名体重指数正常，50 名超重/肥胖。研究数据包括年龄、体重指数、腰部和股骨颈的 T 值以及骨矿物质密度（BMD）。相关结果以皮尔逊相关系数（r）表示：结果：老年患者的 T2 评分和 BMD2 明显低于年轻患者（分别为 p=0.008 和 p=0.007）。事后检验结果显示，年龄≥71 岁的患者的 T2 评分和 BMD2 明显低于年龄≤59 岁的患者（分别为 p=0.006 和 p=0.005）。此外，超重/肥胖患者的 T1 和 T2 评分以及 BMD1 和 BMD2 也明显较高（分别为 p< 0.001 和 p=0.003；p< 0.001 和 p=0.002）。体重指数与 T1 评分之间的相关性为中度（r=0.429），体重指数与 T2 评分之间的相关性为弱度（r=0.348），体重指数与 BMD1 之间的相关性为中度（r=0.431），体重指数与 BMD2 之间的相关性为弱度（r=0.344）：我们的研究表明，年龄和体重指数都是影响 DXA 程序的重要因素，在日常工作中应针对每位绝经后妇女的具体情况加以考虑。
