Abstract
The aims of this study is to observe the levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitaminD (25OHD), parathyroid hormone and bone mineral density (BMD) in type 2 diabetes as well as to analyze the correlationship between 25OHD level and BMD. The subjects included 368 type 2 diabetic patients, ages ranged 40–79 years and 300 non-diabetic control subjects matched for age, gender and body mass index. The serum 25OHD concentration, parathyroid hormone level and BMDs value at lumbar spine (L1-L4), femoral neck, total hip and total body were measured. The BMDs (g/cm2) was measured by LUNAR's DEXA dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. ①Compared with control subjects, the serum 25OHD level, BMDs at the femoral neck and total hip declined in type 2 diabetes[(45±17 vs. 36±12 nmol/L), (0.93±0.17 vs. 0.85±0.14 g/cm2), (0.93±0.14 vs. 0.87±0.15g/cm2) (all P2), (0.91±0.14 vs. 0.84±0.16 g/cm2)(All P10years group than diabetes duration ≤10 years group (10.6±9.1 vs. 7.1±3.7 pmol/L) (P8% group decreased [(40±15 vs. 32±13 nmol/l), (0.89±0.13 vs. 0.83±0.13 g/cm2), (0.95±0.13 vs. 0.83±0.16 g/cm2) (All PX2 = 4.37 and 4.70, P = 0.04 and 0.03); Diabetes duration, HbA1c and parathyroid hormone levels were longer or higher in Diabetic osteoporosis group than those in normal BMD group and osteopenia group(All p<0.05). ⑤ Simple factor correlation analysis showed that the BMD at the femoral neck was negatively correlated with the age, diabetes duration, HbA1c, parathyroid hormone (rs = -0.18,-0.23,-0.18,-0.25), and positively correlated with 25OHD (rs = 0.23). Decreased BMDs and increased incidence of osteoporosis were observed in type 2 diabetic patients, which are closely related to the serum 25OHD level. These findings were more prominent at the femoral neck and total hip for patients with a longer diabetic history and poor glycemic control.
