Abstract:
Objective To evaluate differences of serum bone gamma-carboxyglutamic-acid-containing protein (BGP)levels be-tween different gender in the middle-aged and elder population and the correlation between serum BGP and osteoporosis,as well as the correlation between BGP and other bone metabolic markers.Methods The study population consisted of 270 health care middle-aged and elder people,who were excluded malignancy and chronic diseases,during 2011 January to Au-gust.Of all the Recipients,101 cases were male,aged 50 to 89 years,with a median age of 68 years old,female 169 cases, aged 50 to 89 years,with a median age of 64 years.Bone density were measured by absorptiometry and was evaluated by the T index values.Serum BGP,25-hydroxyvitamin D,calcium and phosphorus were measured by different assays systems.The different level of BGP between genders was also analyzed by Mann-Whitney test.Correlation between BGP and serum calci-um,phosphorus,25-hydroxyvitamin D,osteoporosis risk index were analyzed Spearman rank correlation analysis.Results T value,BGP,25-hydroxy vitamin D,calcium and phosphorus levels range of 270 cases were-3.5~-0.7 (median-1.6 ng/ml),3.59~264.90 ng/ml (median 12.84 ng/ml),4.0~34.0 ng/ml (media 10.5 ng/ml),1.79~2.69 mmol/L (median 2.36 ng/ml),0.43~2.89 mmol/L (median 1.12 ng/ml),respectively.BGP levels in the female groups were significantly higher than the male groups.Serum concentration of BGP was positively correlated with serum phosphorus,but the serum BGP with calcium,25-hydroxy vitamin D,age and osteoporosis risk indices were not correlated.Conclusion In the elder groups,female BGP levels were significantly higher than male,the gender factor should be considered in the clinical applica-tion of BGP.Since BGP and osteoporosis risk index T had positive correlation,those two tests can be combined to evaluate osteoporosis.
