ABSTRACT: Objective: To investigate the correlation between lower extremity vascular sclerosis
and osteoporosis in elderly men with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: A
total of 359 elderly male patients with type II diabetes hospitalized in the
First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2018 to
June 2023 were retrospectively collected. According to the BMD (Bone Density
Value), the patients were categorized into osteoporotic (T ≤ -2.5, n = 248) and non-osteoporotic groups (T >
-2.5, n = 111). T test and Chi-square test
were used to evaluate the differences in clinical data, biochemical
markers and ABI between two groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used
to analyze the risk factors of osteoporosis in elderly men with type 2 diabetes
mellitus. Results: Compared with the non-osteoporotic group, the
differences in diabetes course, systolic blood pressure, ABI, BMI, uric acid,
triglyceride, and HDL in the osteoporotic group were statistically significant
(P Conclusion: Atherosclerosis of the lower extremities in elderly men with T2DM is closely
related to osteoporosis, and can lead to a decrease in bone mass, and an
increase in osteoporosis.
