The study findings demonstrated a significant association between C-reactive protein levels and trabecular bone score : NHANES 2005-2008.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The association between C-reactive protein and bone density has been primarily investigated in previous studies, with little to no research investigating its relationship with total bone trabecular score.

Methods

Data from the NHANES database (500 males and 633 females) were utilized in this study to perform a multiple weighted linear regression analysis to estimate this relationship of CRP and TBS. Subsequently, population characterization, univariate logistic regression analysis, subgroup and interaction analysis were in progress.

Results

Upon covariate adjustment, the analysis revealed a notable negative correlation between CRP and TBS(β=-0.0081,95% CI (-0.0142, -0.0019), P = 0.009). Furthermore, no interactions were detected within any subgroups.
