Objective:
To investigate the prevalence of osteoporosis (OP) and its influencing factors among people aged 60 years and above, so as to provide insights into OP prevention and treatment among the elderly.
Methods:
People aged 60 years and above who underwent physical examinations were selected from Hangzhou First People's Hospital from January to October 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle and physical examination data were collected through field surveys and hospital information systems. Bone density was measured by dual-energy X-ray densitometer, and OP was diagnosed with reference to the Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Primary Osteoporosis (2022). Factors affecting the OP were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 482 participants were included and had a mean age of (69.10±6.52) years. There were 217 men (45.02%) and 265 women (54.98%). The prevalence of OP was 43.36%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified gender (women, OR=3.791, 95%CI: 1.726-8.314), age (70 to 79 years, OR=1.260, 95%CI: 1.018-1.559; 80 years and above, OR=3.083, 95%CI: 1.546-6.147), body mass index (≥24 kg/m2, OR=0.358, 95%CI: 0.205-0.626), family history of fracture (OR=1.475, 95%CI: 1.073-2.030), diabetes (OR=1.626, 95%CI: 1.109-2.382), regular exercise (OR=0.457, 95%CI: 0.287-0.726), intake of milk products (OR=0.511, 95%CI: 0.335-0.780), intake of calcium supplements (OR=0.473, 95%CI: 0.287-0.778) and vitamin D deficiency (OR=2.132, 95%CI: 1.309-3.473) as factors affecting OP.
Conclusion
The prevalence of OP is associated with gender, age, body mass index, family history of fracture, diabetes, diet and vitamin D deficiency.

In order to explore the role of acetylcholine in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), the changes in the concentration of acetylcholine (Ach) in the striatum, the apoptosis of substantia nigra cells, the ultrastructure and the changes of Nissl cells in rats during the morbidity of PD, and the corresponding behaviors in rats with PD were observed. Rat PD model was established by using the modified Thomas method. Eighty-one rats were randomly divided into normal control, sham operation and PD groups and their behavior features were observed at post-operative day (POD) 7, 14 and 21 as three subgroups (n=9 each). The concentration of Ach in the striatum was determined by using high-performance liquid chromatography. The apoptosis of substantia nigra cells was assayed by using TUNEL method. The ultrastructural changes in the substantia nigra were observed under the electron microscopy, and the survival of neurons in the substantia nigra area was examined by using Nissl staining. In PD group at POD 7 to 21, the damage in the substantia nigra area was gradually aggravated, the concentration of Ach, apoptosis rate and turns of rotation were gradually increased, and the number of Nissl cells was gradually reduced over the time as compared with the normal control and sham operation groups (all P<0.05). It was concluded that there exist dynamic changes in Ach concentration, ethology and apoptosis of the substantia nigra cells during the morbidity of PD, suggesting the contribution of apoptosis to the morbidity of PD, and critical role of Ach in the pathogenesis of PD.
