“…Consistent with several previously published studies, areal BMD and TBS declined with age in women [ 15 , 27 ] but not in men [ 20 ]. The mean TBS over the full 30–90 year age range was 1.392 for men and 1.344 for women.…”

“…Several studies have reported normative values of TBS in women of different countries, including China [ 15 ], France [ 16 ], Japan [ 27 ], Sri Lanka [ 22 ] and the United States [ 21 ], and in both men and women of Australia [ 14 ], Iran [ 17 ], Italy [ 18 ], Mexico [ 20 ] and Thailand [ 23 ]. There is a need for establishing reference values for different populations because ethnicity is reported to be an important factor in bone quality [ 28 ] and fracture risk [ 29 ].…”

“…For clinical use, reference standards for TBS values for different populations worldwide are required. At present, TBS normative data are available for several populations, including Australians [ 14 ], Chinese women [ 15 ], French women [ 16 ], Iranians [ 17 ], Italians [ 18 ], Japanese women [ 19 ], Mexicans [ 20 ], non-Hispanic American white women [ 21 ], Sri Lankan women [ 22 ], and Thais [ 23 ]. Nevertheless, to the best of our knowledge, TBS normative data are not available for Taiwanese adults.…”

Trabecular bone score (TBS) is a novel method for assessing trabecular microarchitecture. Normative values of TBS are available for various populations of the world but are not yet available for Taiwanese adults. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to estimate age-specific, normative TBS curves for Taiwanese men and women. Medical records of general health examinations from a regional hospital in Southern Taiwan were reviewed. Individuals aged 30–90 years with data on lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) were included. TBS was retrospectively calculated from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans using TBS iNsight software. Of the 12,028 patients included, 4533 (37.7%) were male and the mean age was 55.8 years. The mean TBS was 1.392 (standard deviation (SD) 0.089) for men and 1.344 (SD 0.107) for women. In women, TBS declined at a rate of 0.0004/year among those aged 30.0–45.9 years, 0.0106/year among those 46.0–60.7 years, and 0.0028/year among those 60.8–90.0 years. In men, TBS declined at a constant rate of 0.0023/year over the entire age range. In conclusion, age-adjusted, normative curves of TBS for Taiwanese men and women are presented, which could be used to facilitate the use of TBS in assessing bone status in clinical practice.

“…Among the three age groups, the ≥70year group had the lowest mean TBS, and this finding is similar to that of a previous Taiwanese study [31]. We also noted decreased TBS with age in patients, a finding that is consistent with those of previous studies on healthy men and women in Mexico, Australia, Thailand, Korea, and Iran [32,33,[36][37][38]. These findings suggest that older adults have lower bone quality and strength regardless of ethnicity.…”

Osteoporosis is a common bone disease in older adults, and it is a predictor of bone fracture. This study determined the mean trabecular bone score (TBS) of older Taiwanese men in different age groups and analyzed the effectiveness of TBS in predicting osteoporosis risk. A total of 1568 men aged 50 and older were enrolled. The demographic characteristics; bone mineral density (BMD) T-scores of the spine, total hip, and femoral neck; and TBS of the spine were recorded to statistically determine osteoporosis-related factors. The average age (range) of the included patients was 59.5± 7.5 (50.0–92.7) years. The mean (range) TBS was 1.386 ± 0.073 (0.999–1.605). The TBS was moderately and positively correlated with the BMD T-scores of the spine, total hip, and femoral neck (r = 0.516, 0.499, and 0.480, respectively). The lowest of the BMD T-scores measured at multiple sites revealed a higher rate of osteoporosis (5.5%) than did BMD T-scores measured at individual sites. Moreover, bone microarchitecture degradation was noted in 2.2% of the patients. Compared with the use of BMD alone, a combination of BMD and TBS predicted more patients (1.4%) to be at a high risk of osteoporosis. Combining the lowest BMD and TBS revealed that 20.3% of patients aged ≥70 years had a high risk of osteoporosis. TBS can be used to clinically assess the risk of osteoporosis in older adults without osteoporosis. We recommend combining the lowest BMD T-score and TBS for predicting the risk of osteoporosis.

“…(44). Trabecular bone score (TBS) is a bone texture index obtained from lumbar spine densitometry images and a predictor of fracture risk independent of BMD or bone size (45)(46)(47). This index can capture bone changes in obese individuals and may help determine risk factors for assessing fracture susceptibility in this condition.…”

Energy metabolism is a point of integration among the various organs and tissues of the human body, not only in terms of consumption of energy substrates but also because it concentrates a wide interconnected network controlled by endocrine factors. Thus, not only do tissues consume substrates, but they also participate in modulating energy metabolism. Soft mesenchymal tissues, in particular, play a key role in this process. The recognition that high energy consumption is involved in bone remodeling has been accompanied by evidence showing that osteoblasts and osteocytes produce factors that influence, for example, insulin sensitivity and appetite. Additionally, there are significant interactions between muscle, adipose, and bone tissues to control mutual tissue trophism. Not by chance, trophic and functional changes in these tissues go hand in hand from the beginning of an individual's development until aging. Likewise, metabolic and nutritional diseases deeply affect the musculoskeletal system and adipose tissue. The present narrative review highlights the importance of the interaction of the mesenchymal tissues for bone development and maintenance and the impact on bone from diseases marked by functional and trophic disorders of adipose and muscle tissues.
