摘要
目的:探讨老年患者骨质疏松与动脉钙化之间的相关性。方法:对123例老年住院患者采用双能X线吸收法测定腰椎正位(L1~4)、股骨颈(左股骨、右股骨)骨密度T值,分析骨密度与冠状动脉钙化的关系;同时按AJ-130、Volume-130两种评分标准进行心脏冠状动脉钙化评分;将123例患者按年龄段分为A、B、C三组各41例,观察比较各年龄段骨量减少、骨质疏松、动脉钙化情况。结果:骨量减少、骨质疏松者冠状动脉钙化严重程度显著高于骨量正常者(P<0.01),钙化评分与骨密度呈负相关;骨量减少、骨质疏松、动脉钙化严重程度随年龄增加呈显著上升趋势(P<0.01)。结论:老年骨质疏松患者较非骨质疏松者更易发生动脉钙化病变,同时存在动脉钙化病变者也易致骨量丢失,提示骨质疏松与动脉钙化之间可能存在共同危险因素。
Objective: To explore the correlation between osteoporosis and arterial calcification in elderly patients. Methods: The dual energy X - ray absorption method was used for the determination of T value of bone mineral density of lumbar spine ( Lt -4 ), femoral neck ( the left and right femurs) of 123 hospitalized elderly patients, the relationship between bone mineral density and coronary artery calcifi- cation was analyzed; meanwhile the coronary artery calcification was evaluated in the light of AJ - 130 and Volume - 130 scoring criteria. Then 123 patients were divided into group A, B and C according to age differences(41 patients in each group}. The osteopenia, osteopo- rosis and arterial calcification in different ages was observed and compared. Results- The severity of osteopenia, osteoporosis and coronary artery calcification was significantly higher in the patients than that of those who had normal bone mass ( P 〈 0.01 ) ; the calcification score negatively correlated with BMD ; the severity of osteopenia, osteoporosis and arterial calcification significantly increased with increasing age ( P 〈 0.01 ). Conclusion: The elderly patients with osteoporosis are more susceptible to artery calcification and presence of arterial calcifi- cation also causes bone loss, indicating that the common risk factors may exist between osteoporosis and arterial calcification.
