Associations between hormones, metabolic markers, and bone mass in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

To explore the associations between hormones, metabolic markers, and low bone mass in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women.

Materials and methods

A total of 198 women were enrolled in this study. The correlations between hormones, metabolic markers, and BMD were analyzed. Risk factors for bone loss were identified. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to display the predictive power of these risk factors.

Results

The years since menopause and the levels of glucose (GLU), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH) were inversely correlated with BMD, while estrogen and testosterone were positively correlated with BMD. Age (odds ratio [OR] 1.232; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.106-1.372; p < 0.001), GLU (OR 1.848;
