Abstract

Objective To investigate the bone mineral density and the influencing factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods 76 cases of T2DM patients admitted to our hospital during 2012~2014 and 76 cases of healthy persons were studied. T2DM patients were the observation group, and the healthy physical examination personnel were the control group. The bone mineral density and incidence of osteoporosis were compared between the two groups in different age, sex, course of disease, menopause time and so on. Results Bone mineral density in patients with type 2 diabetes was negatively correlated with age, and was positively correlated with body mass index. The age was taken as the control factor, and the female patients were negatively correlated with the years of menopause. Conclusion The incidence of bone density and osteoporosis in patients with type 2 diabetes was similar to the normal group. For female patients, the bone mineral density of the lumbar spine was decreased with the extension of the years of menopause.
