摘要:
PURPOSE: To assess the relationship between biochemical bone turnover marker and bone mineral density(BMD) and to evaluate the predictive role of biochemical bone marker in postmenopausal osteopenic woman. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ninety two postmenopausal women (50-65 years old), who have the T-score from -1.0 to -2.5 by the dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), were examined consecutively with BMD of the lumbar spine and biochemical bone turnover marker including urine Cross-linked N-telopeptide of type I collagen (u-NTX), urine deoxy-pyridinoline (u-DPD), serum Cross-linked C-telopeptide of type I collagen (s-CTX), serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (s-BAP), serum osteocalcin (s-OC) for six months. We evaluated the relation between the changes in the biochemical markers and the rate of bone loss. RESULTS: Seventy four postmenopausal women completed this study. All biochemical bone turnover marker and BMD at one time point including the baseline and the end point did not show any significant correlation. Another longitudinal study found no significant correlation between the baseline biochemical bone turnover marker and the change in lumbar spine BMD. The other study showed significant correlation between the changes in s-CTX/s-OC and the change in lumbar spine BMD (p=0.04, 0.03). The changes of u-NTX and s-OC were larger in the group of aggravation in BMD (p=0.032, 0.041). CONCLUSION: The relationship between bone turnover marker and BMD at one time point was not clear. The predictive role of baseline bone turnover marker was limited to predict the magnitude of changes in lumbar BMD in untreated osteopenic individuals. The changes of s-OC showed significant predictive role in the bone loss in osteopenic postmenopausal women.
