Are there associations between bone turnover and hip geometry in the general population?

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

While impaired bone remodeling contributes to osteoporosis and probably to osteoarthritis, the relations between bone turnover and key hip geometry measures such as center-edge angle (CE), neck-shaft angle (NSA) or alpha angle remain unknown. We here examined the presence of associations between two bone turnover markers with hip geometric measures in adults from the general population.

Methods

Data from 2037 participants (50% women) in the Study of Health in Pomerania-TREND were examined. Hip geometric parameters were obtained using magnetic resonance imaging. Serum concentrations of carboxy-terminal telopeptide of Type I collagen (CTX, bone resorption) and intact amino-terminal propeptide of Type I procollagen (P1NP, bone formation) were measured to assess bone
