This research aimed at evaluating the bone mineral density according to answer IOF’s one-minute osteoporosis risk test.
Materials and methods. The study included two stages. Test was translated into Ukrainian. At the first stage, structural-functional state of bone was evaluated by means of an ultrasound bone densitometer (“Achilles+”). We’ve examined 147 postmenopausal women aged 50-69 years (mean age 59,8 ±0,7). The speed of sound (SOS, m/s), broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA, dB/MHz) and “Stiffness” index (SI,%) were measured.
Results. Parameters of ultrasound densitometry at patients who have answered positively on ІІ (Have you broken a bone after a minor bump or fall), ІІІ (Have you ever taken corticosteroid tablets for more than 3 consecutive months) and ІV (Have you lost more than 3 cm in height) questions, were significantly less in comparison with the patients who have answered negatively. SI at patients with the positive answer to the on ІІ the question has made 74,0±1,7%, with negative – 81,2±1,3%, р = 0,002; on ІІІ – 67,1±3,9% and 79,9±1,1%, р = 0,0013; on ІV – 71,6±1,7% and 82±1,2%, р <0,00001. Rate of osteoporosis depending on the positive answer to the following questions has been made: to the on ІІ question – 46,67%, to the on ІІІ – 81,82 %, to the on ІV – 58,1 %. At the second stage of BMD, T and Z-score of the spine, femoral neck were determined by DXA using a densitometer Prodigy (GE Medical systems). We’ve examined 73 postmenopausal women aged 50-69 years (mean age 63,9±0,9). Significant correlation between the answer to the on ІІ a question and BMD spine (r =-0,29; p=0,012) and BMD femoral neck (r =-0,32; p=0,005); between the answer to the on ІV a question and BMD spine (r=0,29; p=0,047) was found.
Conclusion. Application of IOF’s one-minute osteoporosis risk test gives an opportunity to determine structural-functional changes of bone.
