Résumé

The association between osteoporosis, a common metabolic bone disorder, and atherosclerosis has been reported in different studies. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between the coronary artery calcium score (CACS) and bone mineral density (BMD) at different sites and bone biomarkers in postmenopausal women. A total of 184 participants were enrolled in this study. The CACS and BMD at different sites, including the spinal, total hip, and femoral neck, were measured using computed tomography angiography and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, respectively. Serum levels of osteocalcin, β-C-terminal telopeptide (β-CTX), parathyroid hormone, and 25-hydroxy-vitamin D were measured. A negative association between CACS and bone biomarker levels (osteocalcin, P=0.021; β-CTX, P=0.013) was noted. The univariable model showed an association between CACS and osteoporosis of the femoral neck (P=0.03). It was found that with an increase of 10 U in CACS, the odds of osteoporosis at the femoral neck escalates by 2% (odds ratio=1.02, 95% confidence interval, 1.002-1.03) using the multivariate logistic regression model, while such an association with osteoporosis could not be found at the spinal site. The best cutoff point of the calcium score was estimated to be 127. The results suggest that in postmenopausal women, coronary atherosclerosis is independently associated with osteoporosis of the femoral neck, but such an association could not be detected with spinal osteoporosis. The importance of screening for osteoporosis in patients with cardiovascular disease and the implications of preventive measures in the primary care setting were highlighted considering the common risk factors.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
The association between osteoporosis, a common metabolic bone disorder, and atherosclerosis has been reported in different studies. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between the coronary artery calcium score (CACS) and bone mineral density (BMD) at different sites and bone biomarkers in postmenopausal women.
METHODS METHODS
A total of 184 participants were enrolled in this study. The CACS and BMD at different sites, including the spinal, total hip, and femoral neck, were measured using computed tomography angiography and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, respectively. Serum levels of osteocalcin, β-C-terminal telopeptide (β-CTX), parathyroid hormone, and 25-hydroxy-vitamin D were measured.
RESULTS RESULTS
A negative association between CACS and bone biomarker levels (osteocalcin, P=0.021; β-CTX, P=0.013) was noted. The univariable model showed an association between CACS and osteoporosis of the femoral neck (P=0.03). It was found that with an increase of 10 U in CACS, the odds of osteoporosis at the femoral neck escalates by 2% (odds ratio=1.02, 95% confidence interval, 1.002-1.03) using the multivariate logistic regression model, while such an association with osteoporosis could not be found at the spinal site. The best cutoff point of the calcium score was estimated to be 127.
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
The results suggest that in postmenopausal women, coronary atherosclerosis is independently associated with osteoporosis of the femoral neck, but such an association could not be detected with spinal osteoporosis. The importance of screening for osteoporosis in patients with cardiovascular disease and the implications of preventive measures in the primary care setting were highlighted considering the common risk factors.
