ABSTRACT: Background
This study aimed to analyse the relationship of the blood lipid profile and interleukin-6 (IL-6) with osteoporosis and osteopenia and to explore the predictive value of the combined application of these biomarkers in osteoporosis and osteopenia.Methods
Data from 276 patients treated in the orthopaedics department were retrospectively analysed. Their general information was collected, and the relationships among the blood lipid profile, IL-6 with bone turnover markers, and bone mineral density (BMD) were analysed. Patients were categorized based on their T scores for intergroup comparisons. Finally, the diagnostic efficiency of lipid metabolism markers and IL-6 for osteoporosis and osteopenia was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.Re
