Osteoporosis and metabolic syndrome according to socio‐economic status, contribution of PTH, vitamin D and body weight: The Canarian Osteoporosis Poverty Study (COPS)

Abstract: Poor postmenopausal women in southern Europe have a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome and osteoporotic fractures. Poverty was associated with higher BMI and metabolic syndrome on the one hand and, on the other, with 25OHD insufficiency, higher PTH levels and osteoporosis. 25OHD insufficiency and/or secondary hyperparathyroidism do not have a significant influence on the presence of metabolic syndrome in this population.

“…Low socio-economic status has been associated with 25-OHD insufficiency, higher values of PTH, lower values of BMD and a higher prevalence of fragility fractures. 53 Also, despite lower serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations and dietary calcium intake and, African Americans have higher BMD and develop osteoporosis less frequently than do European Americans. 54 Our Medicare analysis showed a significant interaction of socioeconomic variables (education and income), but also of race and obesity, confirming those previous factors.…”

“…Oral health behaviors are also associated with sociodemographic factors such as education level and economic status [33,34]. In many studies, low education level and low income were related to decreased BMD [35][36][37]. Therefore, subjects with good oral health behavior could also have positive behavioral and environmental factors for bone health.…”

“…The prevalence of deficiency is even higher in patients with risk factors for having low blood levels of vitamin D, obese people and those in poverty 42 . Therefore, vitamin D deficiency in Spain is not a myth (a person or a thing to which are attributed qualities or benefits they do not possess, or even a reality which they lack), but a reality with significant repercussions on bone health and probably on the health of the organism as a whole.…”
