Abstract:
Objective To study the changes and mechanism of calcaneal quantitative ultrasound (QUS)and the bone mineral density( BMD) of AP lumbar spine( L 2-L 4 ) in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods Calcaneal broadband ultrasound attenuation ( BUA) ,sound of speed ( SOS ) and stiffness( STI) by QUS ,BMD of the AP lumber spine by dual energy X-ray absorptometry ( DXA ) and some biochemical markers of bone metabolism in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus ( n=94 )and in healthy control group ( n=90 ) were measured . Results L 2 BMD values(g/cm 2)of male group with type 2 diabetes mellitus was 0.863, which was lower than that of control group ( 0.931, P
