Abstract

This study was undertaken to assess the effect of blood glucose on BMD and interactions with age, sex, and BMI in a Taiwanese population. Both obese and non-obese people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) had higher BMD, at lumbar spine and femoral neck, compared with healthy subjects. In addition, the prevalence of osteoporosis significantly decreased with blood sugar and HbA1c. This study was undertaken to assess the effect of blood glucose on BMD and possible interactions with age, sex, and BMI in a Taiwanese population. This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study using data from the Health Examination Database of Changhua Christian Hospital. Data on BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck were obtained by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and other relevant clinical and laboratory data were recorded. The type 2 diabetes (T2DM) group had a higher BMD than the controls. When comparing the prevalence of osteoporosis between subjects by glucose and HbA1c level, the prevalence of osteoporosis significantly decreased with blood glucose and HbA1c. In addition, the BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck was higher in the T2DM group than in the controls. Osteoporosis was negatively associated with DM, BMI, and drinking, but posi...Continue Reading

Biomarkers for Type 2 Diabetes

Biomarkers can help understand chronic diseases and assist in risk prediction for prevention and early detection of diseases. Here is the latest research on biomarkers in type 2 diabetes, a disease in which the body is unable to produce or properly use insulin.
