Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate VERTEBRAL GEOMETRY changes and determine cutoff value of vertebral height to predict FRACTUREs.Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 280 postmenopausal women recruited In all subjects bone mineral density and RADIOGRAPHY of the lumbar spine performed. Lateral radiographs were evaluated for identification of vertebral FRACTUREs, using a validated semiquantitative method. T-score of vertebral height was calculated based on data extracted from Iranian Multicenter Osteoporosis Study. ROC curve used to determine cut off value of vertebral height T-score to predict FRACTUREs. Results: The mean of age and BMI were 55.34±8.7 years and 27.73±5 kg/m2, respectively. Among osteoporotic women, 59.8% had one or more vertebral FRACTUREs and 23.8% had at least 2 FRACTUREs. In FRACTURE group the T-score of spine and femur BMD was lower than the others. The mean of vertebral height in women without FRACTUREs was 12.94±0.6 cm, and in the patient with 4 or more FRACTUREs was 12.3, thus every FRACTURE accompany with 1.2% decreases in the height of vertebrae.The prevalence of vertebral FRACTURE in osteoporotic patients was 71.4% and in healthy cases 39.5%. Better estimation of vertebral height T score in ROC curve was less than -0.7.The sensitivity and specificity of the cut off value were 81.3% and 52.9%, respectively.Conclusion: Vertebral FRACTUREs are common FRACTUREs in postmenopausal women. There was a correlation between vertebral height and FRACTUREs. Vertebral geometric parameters especially height T score can be used for FRACTURE screening.
