Objective To explore the relationship between bone turnover and the risk of fragile hip fracture (HF) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc) in elderly women. Methods A total of 661 female hospitalized osteoporosis patients aged over 60 years from January 2021 to December 2022 were selected, including 266 cases in the non fracture group (Group A) and 395 cases in the HF (Group B). Total cholesterol (Tch), triglyceride (TG), HDLc, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc), osteocalcin N-segment middle molecular fragment (N-MID OC), type I collagen carboxyl terminal peptide β special sequence(β-CTX), total protein (TP), albumin (Alb), calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), magnesium (Mg), urea (Urea), creatinine (Cr), cystatin C (Cys-C), glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), bone formation rate (MoMF), bone resorption rate (MoMR), and bone turnover rate (MoT) were detected. Results (1) Compared to those in non fracture group, the contents of TP [118 (108128) vs 124 (114131)], Alb [38.4±3.7 vs 40.0±4.3], HDLc [1.51 (1.24, 1.71) vs 1.54 (1.37, 1.73)], Ca [2.21±0.12 vs 2.29±0.12], P [1.03±0.16 vs 1.08±0.17] in hip fracture group decreased, but age [76 (68, 83) vs 73 (67,78)], β-CTX [0.57 (0.4,0.77) vs 0.34 (0.19, 0.56)], MoMR [1.84 (1.3, 2.51) vs 1.09 (0.61, 1.83)], and MoT [2.16 (1.56,2.85) vs 1.56 (1.09, 2.38)] increased (P<0.05), and the difference was statistically significant. N-MID OC, MoMF, Urea, Cr, Cys-C, eGFR, Tch, TG, LDLc, and Mg were not statistically significant (P>0.05). (2) HF in elderly women was negatively correlated with HDLc, TP, ALB, Ca, P, and Mg (r=-0.09, -0.26, -0.16, -0.28, -0.12, -0.03, P<0.05). positively correlated with age, β-CTX, MoMR, and MoT (r=0.17, 0.36, 0.36, 0.26, P<0.05), but was not correlated with N-MID OC, MoMF, Urea, Cr, Cys-C, eGFR, Tch, TG, and LDLc (P>0.05). (3) Age, MoT, TP, Ca, and P were risk factors for HF in elderly women, with ORs of 1.03 (95%CI: 1.01-1.06), 1.75 (95%CI: 1.44-2.12), 0.96 (95%CI: 0.92-0.99), 0.06 (95%CI: 0.01-0.37), and 0.18 (95%CI: 0.06-0.6), respectively (P<0.05). (4) There was a U-shaped relationship between HDLc and bone turnover (P<0.01), with a cut-off point of 1.692 mmol/L. Conclusion High bone turnover is a risk factor for HF in elderly women with osteoporosis, and its bone turnover rate is U-shaped related to HDLc. |
