Objective To investigate the correlation between myogenic factors and bone metabolic indexes and the risk of osteoporosis fractures in postmenopausal women. Methods A total of 215 postmenopausal female patients in the Wuxi Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from June 2021 to June 2022 were studied. Among those, 184 patients were selected according to the criteria of admission and emission, including 88 cases with postmenopausal osteoporosis, 65 cases with bone mass reduction, and 31 cases with normal bone mass. Baseline data, musculoskeletal metabolic indicators including alkaline phosphatase (ALP), type I procollagen amino terminal propeptide (PINP), irisin, and muscle inhibin (MSTN), and BMD were collected. FRAX evaluation software was used to assess the fracture risk. The differences in muscle bone metabolic indicators, body mass index (BMI), and body surface area (BS) were compared based on control age, bone mass, and FRAX risk level. The correlation between postmenopausal women's fracture risk and various indicators was analyzed. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between fracture risk probability and related variables. Results There were significant differences in BMD, PMOF, and PHF among different age groups (P<0.05). There were significant differences in BMI, BS, ALP, PMOF, and PHF among different bone mass groups (P<0.05). There were significant differences between FRAX risk groups in age, BS, BMD, Ca, ALP, PINP, irisin, and MSTN (P<0.05). The correlation analysis showed that FRAX fracture probability was positively correlated with age, PINP, and MSTN (P<0.05), and negatively correlated with BMI, BS, BMD, and irisin (P<0.05). The binary logistic regression analysis showed that age, PINP, and irisin were important factors related to fracture risk. Conclusion Based on the FRAX intervention threshold study suitable for Asian populations, age, PINP, and irisin in postmenopausal women are sensitive factors for fracture risk assessment. This is important for optimizing fracture risk models for osteoporosis. |
