Abstract

OSTEOPOROSIS is a common health concern in both developed and developing countries. In this study the association between anthropometric measures and OSTEOPOROSIS was investigated in 3630 males and females visiting BMD clinic of Shariati Hospital, Tehran, Iran, a teaching hospital and referral center for OSTEOPOROSIS affiliated to the Tehran University of Medical Sciences. Anthropometric measurements obtained and also Bone Mineral Density (BMD) measurement was done using a Lunar DPXMD densitometer. Data were analyzed using SPSS with Chi-square and ANOVA with post-hoc tests. Results showed that the WEIGHT, BMI and AGE had the strongest correlation with the BMD values in the studied people. While AGE is negatively correlated with BMD in all the studied people, a positive association was noted between WEIGHT, height and BMI and BMD parameters (P<0.01). It was concluded that certain ANTHROPOMETRIC PARAMETERS (BMI and WEIGHT) can considerably affect one's risk of developing OSTEOPOROSIS. Further research on the effect of these variables on the association of WEIGHT and BMD is needed.
