dc.description.abstract | Objective: The aim of this study is to assess osteoporosis (OP) risk factors in postmenopausal women and 10-year major osteoporosis and femur facture risks using the World Health Organization's fracture risk assessment scale (FRAX (R)). Material and Methods: This cross-sectional analytic study was carried out on 340 postmenopausal women. Considering participant risk factors and bone mineral densities and using the FRAX (R) risk assessment scale, their 10-year major osteoporotic and femur fracture was assessed. Results: The mean age of the women in our study was 57.5+/-7.8. Of the participants, 47 (13.8%) were osteoporotic, 177 (52.1%) were osteopenic, and 116 (34.1%) were normal. As age increased, OP frequency increased (p<0.001), and as body mass index (BMI) increased, OP frequency decreased (p<0.001). Considering OP existence, there was a statistically significant relation between major OP risk and femur fracture risk, calculated using BMD and without using BMD (p<0.001). Major OP fracture risk, calculated using BMD, was low in 94.7% of the subjects, mild in 5.0%, and high in 0.3%. When osteoporosis risk factors were assessed, while OP frequency in those with 2 or fewer clinical risk factors (CRFs) was 12.8%, OP frequency was 28.0% in those with 3 or 4 risk factors. Conclusion: In this study, it was determined that the FRAX (R) risk assessment scale, which is used to assess 10-year OP fracture risk, is a significant, cost-efficient, easy-to-use assessment criterion whether BDM is applied or not. | en_US |
