Introduction: Many authors reported a strong positive association between bone
mineral density (BMD) and fractures. The purpose of this study was to confirm
whether predictive factors of BMD of patients with femoral neck fracture were the
same as those of healthy people. Patients and Methods: We evaluated 857 healthy
women and 24 women who had femoral neck fracture. Age, height, weight, bone
mass index (BMI) and BMD were measured. BMD of lumbar spine and proximal
femur were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Result: The
average BMD of femur was 0.590g/cm2 in fracture group and 0.633g/cm2 in healthy
group (P < 0.05). Other measured items were not significantly different between both
groups. In healthy group, correlation coefficient (CE) between BMD of femur were
0.40 in height, -0.52 in age, 0.30 in weight, 0.07 in BMI, and 0.49 in BMD of the
lumbar spine. In fracture group, CE between BMD of femur were 0.39 in height, -0.25
in age, -0.14 in weight, -0.51 in BMI and 0.37 in BMD of lumbar spine. Height, age,
and BMD of lumber spine were correlated with BMD of femur in healthy group. Only
BMI was correlated with BMD of femur in fracture group. Discussion and Conclusion:
The factors correlated to the BMD of femur were opposite in fracture group and
healthy group. Predictive factors of BMD of women with femoral neck fracture were
not the same as those of healthy women.
