Fracture is associated with osteopenia after osteoporosis. Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is common in inflammatory diseases. NLR can be used as an effective clinical tool to assess postmenopausal osteoporosis. The aim of this study is to further explore the relationship between elevated NLR and the severity of osteoporotic vertebrae fractures and femoral neck fracture based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A total of 80 patients with osteoporotic vertebrae fractures, osteoporotic femoral neck fracture in Baoding Second Central Hospital from 2017 to 2020 were selected as the research objects. This study included a series of pretreatment factors, mainly including white blood cell count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and the general condition of the patients. Statistical methods included Pearson chi-square test, Spearman correlation test, logistic regression analysis and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. According to Pearson chi-square test, Spearman correlation test, univariate/multivariate logistic regression analysis, the severity of osteoporotic vertebrae fractures, osteoporotic femoral neck fracture was significantly correlated with NLR (P < .001). NLR (odds ratio [OR] = 13.229, 95% CI: 4.167–41.998, P < .001) was a significant independent risk factor for osteoporotic vertebrae fractures, osteoporotic femoral neck fracture. receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was used to detect the specificity and sensitivity. The level of NLR has an important influence on the severity of osteoporotic vertebrae fractures and femoral neck fracture. The higher the level of NLR, the more serious the osteoporotic vertebrae fractures and femoral neck fracture.
Spinal fractures are common intra-articular fractures. Osteoporosis is a common and frequent disease among the elderly with a poor prognosis and a high risk of spinal fractures. However, the underlying factors for spinal fractures in patients with osteoporosis are unclear. A total of 105 patients with osteoporosis were recruited. Clinical and followed-up information was recorded. And vitamin B12, vitamin B2, vitamin A, and vitamin B9 in the blood were tested. Pearson's chi-squared and spearman tests were performed to analyze the correlation between spinal fractures and relative parameters. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression, univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. There exists strong relation between the expression level of vitamin B12 and spinal fractures. Pearson's chi-square and Spearman correlation test showed a strong association between vitamin B12 and vitamin B9 and a spinal fracture. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that vitamin B12 and vitamin B9 were significantly associated with a spinal fracture. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that vitamin B12 was associated considerably with a spinal fracture. In addition, Cox regression analysis showed that vitamin B12 expression was significantly associated with maintenance time from recovery to recurrence (MTRR) of spinal fractures in patients with osteoporosis. Enhanced vitamin B12 is significantly correlated with the poor prognosis of patients with osteoporosis and the increasing incidence of a spinal fracture. The higher the vitamin B12, the higher the risk of spinal fracture and the shorter the time to spinal fracture recurrence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
