Sarcopenia and Bone Mineral Density Relation in Hip Fracture Patients

NCT06508957 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 35

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study aims to investigate the relationship between sarcopenia and bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with hip fractures using sonographic thigh adjustment ratio (STAR) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), as well as the relationship of sociodemographic factors, laboratory results, and comorbidities to these measurements.

Cross-sectional research was undertaken on patients with hip fractures in Kastamonu, Turkey. Sarcopenia was identified based on the ISarcoPRM algorithm, which utilizes poor grip strength (\<22 kg for females and \< 32 kg for males) along with low STAR values (\< 1 for females and \<1.4 for males). Sociodemographic data of the patients and levels of total protein, albumin, and 25-OH-vitamin D3 (25\[OH\]D) were obtained from all the patients. The BMD (bone mineral density) and T-scores of the proximal femur were measured using DXA (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry).
