Abstract

Objective: Osteopenia and osteoporosis are within the
systemic features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The present
study aimed to investigate the frequency of osteopenia and osteoporosis in COPD
patients and to determine the correlation between bone mineral dansity (BMD)
and the clinical characteristics of COPD patients.

Method: This
retrospective study was conducted in the department of Pulmonary Medicine, at a
university hospital in Turkey between January 2014 to August 2016. Data of 92
patients with COPD who underwent dual energy X-ray absorptiometry to evaluate
BMD were extracted from the medical records. Osteopenia/osteoporosis was
assessed with the T and Z scores.

Results: Mean
age of the patients was 66.2±9.2 years and males comprised 89.1% of the
study group. The frequency of osteopenia/osteoporosis in
the COPD patients was 63.0%. Osteopenia/osteoporosis frequency was
same in GOLD C/D and GOLD A/B patients [12/19 (%63.1) and 46/73 (%63.1)].  Exacerbation number in the previous year and
the readmission rates were higher and the duration of hospital stay of the
patients with osteoporosis was longer (p<0.05). A significant positive
correlation was noted between body mass index and BMD (r=0.489, p<0.001),
BMD and FEV1/FVC (r=0.226, p=0.040), exacerbation number in the  previous year (r=-0.429, p=0.001) and the
duration of hospital stay in admission (r=-0.228, p=0.034). As the severity of
GOLD stage increased, the prevalence of osteopenia was also increased (ptrend
<0.001).







Conclusions: Our data suggest that the prevalence of
osteopenia and osteoporosis in COPD patients is high independent of disease
stage. Abnormal BMD results are associated with frequent exacerbation,
prolongation of hospital stay, and poor course of the disease.

Kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığı olan hastalarda osteopeni ve osteoporoz sıklığı ve hastalık şiddeti ile ilişkisi

Year 2019, Volume: 41 Issue: 1, 51 - 58, 28.03.2019

Abstract

Amaç: Osteopeni ve osteoporoz, kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığının
(KOAH) sistemik özellikleri içindedir. Bu çalışmada KOAH hastalarında osteopeni
ve osteoporoz sıklığını araştırmak ve KOAH hastalarının kemik mineral dansitesi
(KMD) ile klinik özellikleri arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek amaçlanmıştır.

Yöntem: Bu retrospektif çalışma Türkiye'deki bir üniversite hastanesinde
Göğüs Hastalıkları bölümünde Ocak 2014 - Ağustos 2016 tarihleri arasında
yapıldı. KMD'yi değerlendirmek için çift enerjili X-ışını absorpsiyometrisi
yapılan KOAH'lı 92 hastanın verileri tıbbi kayıtlardan elde edildi.
Osteopeni/osteoporoz T ve Z skorları ile değerlendirildi.

Bulgular: Hastaların ortalama yaşı 66.2±9.2 idi ve erkekler çalışma
grubunun %89.1'ini oluşturuyordu. KOAH hastalarında osteopeni/osteoporoz
sıklığı %63.0 idi. Osteopeni/osteoporoz sıklığı GOLD evre C/D ve GOLD evre A/B
hastalarda aynıydı [12/19 (%63.1) ve 46/73 (%63.1)].  Osteoporozu olan hastaların bir önceki yıl
alevlenme sayıları ve yeniden basvuru oranları daha yüksek; hastanede kalış
süreleri daha uzundu (p<0.05). Vücut kitle indeksi ile KMD (r=0.489,
p<0.001), KMD ile FEV1/FVC (r=0.226, p=0.040), KMD ile önceki yıl alevlenme
sayısı (r=-0.429, p=0.001) ve KMD ile hastanede yatış süresi (r=-0.228,
p=0.034) arasında anlamlı bir korelasyon tespit edildi. GOLD evresinin şiddeti
arttıkça, osteopeni prevalansı da artmıştı (ptrend <0.001).GOLD
evresinin şiddeti arttıkça, osteopeni prevalansı da artmıştır (Ptrend
<0.001).







Sonuç: Verilerimiz KOAH hastalarında evreden bağımsız olarak osteopeni
ve osteoporoz sıklığının yüksek olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Anormal KMD
sonuçları sık alevlenme, hastanede kalış süresinde uzama gibi hastalığın kötü
seyri ile ilişkilidir.
