  • Preliminary study on osteoporosis screening among postmenopausal patients with maintenance hemodialysis

    ObjectiveTo preliminarily explore the effect of Osteoporosis Self-assessment Tool for Asians (OSTA) and Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) on predicting osteoporosis and osteoporosis fracture in postmenopausal patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).MethodsThirty-six postmenopausal patients undergoing MHD from August 2017 to October 2018 in Hemodialysis Center of Nephrology Department, West China Hospital of Sichuan University were selected. Relevant data such as age, height, and weight were collected. OSTA index and the 10-year probability of major osteoporotic fractures and 10-year probability of hip fractures of FRAX score were calculated. Bone mineral densities (BMD) of the hip and lumbar spine were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the same time. The value of OSTA index and FRAX scale in evaluating the risk of osteoporosis predicated on T value ≤−2.5 determined by DXA BMD and fracture in postmenopausal patients with MHD were analyzed.ResultsThe DXA BMD of the 36 patients showed that 50.0% (18/36) had a T value≤−2.5, and 30.6% (11/36) had a fracture history. BMD in postmenopausal patients with MHD was negatively correlated with FRAX score (model without BMD values), and positively correlated with OSTA index. The sensitivity and specificity of OSTA in the prediction of osteoporosis were 94.4% and 61.1%, respectively; and the sensitivity and specificity of FRAX (the model without BMD values) in the prediction of osteoporosis were 88.9% and 50.0%, respectively. The FRAX score with or without BMD had the same clinical value in predicting osteoporosis.ConclusionsPostmenopausal MHD patients have a higher risk of osteoporosis and fracture. Both OSTA index and FRAX scale can predict osteoporosis risk among postmenopausal MHD patients, and the FRAX scale with or without BMD has the same clinical value in predicting osteoporosis risk. In clinical work, for primary hospitals and dialysis centers lacking DXA, preliminary screening of osteoporosis in MHD patients can be performed with OSTA and FRAX scales.
