“…The correlations in all relationships were strong positive significant relationships (the right total hip, the left femoral neck, total left hip, lumbar 1 and 2 vertebrae, and total lumbar region in comparison to the right femoral neck which showed moderate positive relationship). Previous studies concluded that when BMI increases, BMD levels will also increase, which further supports our findings [37, 38]. Moreover, other studies explained that such relationship exists because heavy body weight could result in bone remodeling to compensate for the heavy mechanical load [39, 40].…”

Relationship between Body Mass Index and T-Scores of Bone Mineral Density in the Hip and Spine Regions among Older Adults with Diabetes: A Retrospective Review

Diabetes mellitus (DM) cases are increasing worldwide, especially in Saudi Arabia. Previous studies suggested a positive relationship between body mass index (BMI) and bone mineral density (BMD) levels. Generally, patients with low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2) have reduced BMD levels and, thus, low T-scores; hence, they are categorized as osteopenic or osteoporotic. In this study, we aimed to determine whether a relationship between BMI and BMD T-scores in the hip and spine regions of patients with diabetes exists. This retrospective record review investigated older adult patients with diabetes in King Abdulaziz University Hospital (n=198; age 50–90 years) who underwent BMD scan between January 1, 2016, and June 25, 2018, regardless of their sex but limited to type 2 DM. The height and weight of all subjects were recorded, and BMI was calculated and categorized. We used SPSS version 21 for data analysis; measures of central tendencies, Pearson’s correlations, chi-square tests, and independent t-tests were employed. We found positive relationships between BMI and BMD T-scores in the hip and spine regions (right femoral neck: R=+0.214, P≤0.002; total right hip: R=+0.912, P≤0.001; left femoral neck: R=+0.939, P≤0.001; total left hip: R=+0.885, P≤0.001; and total lumbar region: R=+0.607, P≤0.001). Low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2) could be a risk factor for osteoporosis, whereas normal/high BMI could be protective against osteoporosis among adults with diabetes.

“…In this study, correlations between BMI and BMD T-scores were significantly directly proportional although the correlation strength varied between the strong and moderate, which means that an increase in BMI could result in increased BMD T-scores, and vice versa. Previous studies concluded that when BMI increases, BMD levels will also increase, which further supports our findings [33][34]. Moreover, other studies explained that such a relationship exists because heavy body weight could result in bone remodeling to compensate for the heavy mechanical load [35][36].…”

Background: Previous findings have shown that the body mass index (BMI) is related positively to bone mineral density (BMD). In patients with low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2), the levels of BMD have usually been decreased and the T-values have been low. The goal of the study is to assess weight-BMI-BMD relationships among743 healthy people from the Karachi Gulshan district.Methodology: The research comprised a population of 743 people classified into four BMI classes. The BMD measurement in all the study participants was done by using a Sonost 3000 (Ultrasound Bone Densiometer) from Osteosys CO. Ltd. Korea.Results: The findings of BMI and BMD correlation indicated that osteopenia was occur more in underweight individuals than the overweight and obese, while osteoporosis occurred more in those who were obese in the comparison under & overweight individuals.Conclusion: The study of the associations between BMI and BMD in both male and female participants revealed a strong positive association showed by Pearson's correlation analysis.

“…Previous research has found that as BMI rises, BMD rises as well. [29,30] According to some research, this association occurs because a high body weight can stimulate bone remodeling to compensate for the high mechanical strain. [31,32] Another study found that having a higher BMI raises the levels of leptin, which helps to maintain the connection by increasing osteoblast development and activity.…”

Background: There have been studies investigating the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and bone mineral density (BMD) with findings focused on association between the two variables. The aim of this study was to further investigate the prevalence of osteoporosis and ascertain how BMD varies by gender and age in an average adult Nigerian. Methodology: A total of 68 participants were examined. The participants underwent standard BMD scans of the femur and lumbar using a Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA). BMI was measured as weight in kilograms by height in meters square Results: The findings of this study revealed that the prevalence of osteoporosis was 10.3%. There was association between DEXA values and BMI. There was significant difference between age, gender and BMD. BMD scores for femur and lumbar were higher in subjects younger than 45 years compared to subjects in their middle age and elderly. Males have significantly higher BMD values Conclusions: The results suggest lower BMI is an indication for low BMD. BMD can be used for screening test for osteoporosis. Female gender is more prone to osteoporosis. Age is a factor to consider as middle aged and elderly subjects more at risk of osteoporosis. Key words: Dexa scan, body mass index, osteoporosis
