Association between oral contraceptive use, age at menarche and bone tissue quality in young Slovak women.
This study investigated the association between oral contraceptive use, age at menarche and bone quality in young Slovak women (1830 years) using quantitative ultrasound (QUS) while considering body composition measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis and behavioural components. Bone quality was evaluated using the speed of sound (SOS) in radius via QUS (Sunlight MiniOmni) in 668 Slovak women aged 1830. Significant differences between oral contraceptive users and non-users were observed in bone quality (p = 0.027); with users showing higher SOS values than non-users; notwithstanding, after considering age, body composition and age at menarche in a linear regression analysis, only age resulted as a significant predictor (p < 0.001), with bone quality increasing with age. The correlation between SOS and the age at menarche yielded non-statistically significant results (p = 0.768, r = -0.012). In conclusion, oral contraceptives and age at menarche did not significantly impact bone tissue in our sample.
期刊介绍:
AA is an international journal of human biology. It publishes original research papers on all fields of human biological research, that is, on all aspects, theoretical and practical of studies of human variability, including application of molecular methods and their tangents to cultural and social anthropology. Other than research papers, AA invites the submission of case studies, reviews, technical notes and short reports. AA is available online, papers must be submitted online to ensure rapid review and publication.
