“…These results were in agreement with those of Mansour O F et al 27 These results can be explained as increase in COPD degree is associated with increase of risk factors that lead to occurrence of osteoporosis such as increased inflammatory load of COPD, using more corticosteroid treatment, decrease in pulmonary functions, and decrease in BMI. 37 Sin et al 38 , also revealed that the risk for osteopenia increases by 30% in patients with moderate COPD and by 70% in those with severe COPD and the risk for osteoporosis increases by 2.1-fold in moderate COPD and by 2.8-fold in severe COPD, compared with normal individuals.…”

“…Abu-Bakr et al in a study on 60 male subjects reported an increased prevalence of low BMD (56.6%) among men with COPD (Gold stage III-IV) than healthy individuals of same age and sex. They noted a threefold increase in fracture risk in COPD patients with low BMD than COPD patients with normal BMD [16]. Another study by A. Godah EL-Gazzar et al demonstrated abnormal BMD in 80% of the COPD patients of moderate to the very severe stage.…”
