ON THE QUESTION OF THE START OF A STUDY ON THE DIAGNOSIS OF BONE MINERAL DENSITY IN THE POPULATION OF THE ABAY REGION
Introduction. Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by a decrease in bone mass, leading to increased bone fragility and the risk of fractures. AP - is the most common chronic metabolic bone disease and is a major global health problem, resulting in 8.9 million fractures worldwide each year.
Purpose of the study. Study of risk factors for disruption of the process of bone mass accumulation and age-related features of skeletal mineralization, which is inextricably linked with the quantitative assessment of bone mass using X-ray densitometry.
Methods. The study aimed at identifying factors for the development of AP in adults and children in the city of Semey and the Abay region took place in several stages. Stage 1. Development of questionnaires. Stage 2. Testing of study groups. The survey was carried out manually on paper and then entered into electronic format in Excel. Stage 3. Osteodensitometry. At the University Hospital of Semey Medical University, the study groups underwent X-ray densitometry using the PRIMUS Osteosys device (2020).
Results. According to the results of a survey of 30 adults: the average age was 40±5 years, the average BMI was 24±2. According to the results of a survey of 30 children: the average age was 13±1 years, the average BMI was 20.2±1. When conducting dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), AP was detected in 5 (17%) people, osteopenia in 9 (30%) people, which can be associated with the influence of social and everyday factors. Based on the survey data, it can be noted that children have low physical activity, which in turn affects the development of low BMD.
Conclusions. The authors propose to use the densitometry method, which identifies the most reliable risk factor for fractures – low bone mineral density. The densitometry method should be included in the list of studies if osteoporosis is suspected, and it is preferable to use x-ray densitometers.
