The relationship between bone mineral density and blood pressure in the Korean elderly population: the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2008–2011

Abstract: It is not clear whether the inverse relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and blood pressure (BP) could be generalizable to the general elderly population. We used data from the fourth and fifth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The study sample consisted of 8439 men and postmenopausal women aged 50 years and older. We evaluated the relationship between BMD and BP. When adjusted for covariates, femur neck T-score [coefficient = -0.391, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.766 to -0.0… Show more

“…The association between essential hypertension and the bone mineral density of femoral neck was investigated in 11 studies [ 12 , 13 – 19 , 21 – 23 , 26 ]. The combined standard mean difference (SMD) was −0.06 (95%CI: −0.09∼−0.02, p = 0.001), with significant heterogeneity ( P for heterogeneity = 0.000; I 2 = 96.7%).…”

“…The measurement of BP has been described elsewhere. 11 In brief, after at least 5 min rest in a sitting position, BP was manually measured 3 times at 30 s intervals. Finally, the average of the second and third measurements were used.…”

“…The BMD values were converted into a T-score. T-score reference ranges were calculated using values derived from healthy young Asian female and male subjects that were provided by a bone densitometry manufacturer [ 8 ]. T-score was defined as the BMD of participant − mean BMD of the reference population/standard deviation (SD) of the reference population [ 9 ].…”
