Association between sensitivity to thyroid hormone indices and osteoporosis in euthyroid patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Thyroid hormones are known to regulate bone metabolism and may influence bone mineral density (BMD), as well as the risk of osteoporosis (OP) and fractures in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Recently, sensitivity to thyroid hormone indices has been linked with T2DM and OP independently. However, the relationship between thyroid hormone sensitivity and OP in euthyroid T2DM patients has yet to be investigated.

Objectives

The aim of this study was to determine the association between sensitivity to thyroid hormone indices and the risk of OP in euthyroid patients with T2DM.

Design

This study employed a retrospective, cross-sectional design and utilized data acquired from the Cangzhou Central Hospital in China between 2019 and 2020.
