Clinical and subclinical cardiovascular disease in female SLE patients: Interplay between body mass index and bone mineral density

Abstract: Background and aims: since accelerated atherosclerosis has been reported in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), predictive biomarkers of cardiovascular disease (CVD) are needed. Among non-traditional risk factors, bone mineral density (BMD) has been related to CVD. However, its role in SLE remains controversial. This study aims to analyze the associations of subclinical atherosclerosis with traditional and non-traditional CV risk factors. Methods and results: in a cross-sectional study, atherosclerosis burden … Show more

“…Other non-Framingham traditional risk factors have also been associated with increased cardiovascular risk in SLE, including both high body mass index (BMI) >30, [ 35 ] and low BMI <20, [ 35 , 36 ] premature menopause, sedentary lifestyle, and increased waist-to-hip ratio. [ 37 ] Metabolic syndrome has also been associated with increased cardiovascular events and mortality.…”

“…1 As an example, low bone mineral density (BMD), which is measured by DXA machines, is associated with a significant risk of cardiovascular disease, morbidity and mortality. 25 DXA secondary data biometric measurements are also linked to diseases including obesity, diabetes mellitus and cancer. 26 Despite the fact that osteoporosis healthcare costs (including drug intervention) are increasing, the comprehensive utilization of healthcare big data in practice remains limited.…”

“…It was previously thought that the two were independent of each other, but epidemiological studies have proved the correlation between them [2,3]. In recent years, with the further study of the relationship between osteoporosis and CVD, it has been con rmed that they have similar risk factors in the elderly, especially in postmenopausal women.…”
