Background: Osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are among the most common causes of morbidity, disability and death worldwide. In recent years, more and more data have been accumulating on the presence of an age-independent relationship and general pathogenetic mechanisms of a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) and the development of CVD. It has been shown that a decrease in BMD is an important independent predictor of the risk of atherosclerosis of the great arteries and is associated with increased calcification of the aorta and other vessels. The strongest relationship between these parameters was observed in the study of the female population, in connection with which we selected a group of middle-aged women for analysis.Objective: to investigate the association between bone mineral density and carotid intima-media thickness in middle-aged women.Results: 35 women were included in the study. The mean age was 44,74±4,32 years. We found the following changes in arterial wall characteristics: atherosclerosis — 21,9% women, increased carotid intima thickness — 15,7% women. Low bone mineral density for chronological age (Z-criteria -2,0 and less) was found in 7 patients at the age of 35±2,7 years. We discovered a negative correlation between the markers of subclinical atherosclerosis and bone mass: Ccarotid intimamedia thickness negatively correlated with bone mineral density in hip (p<0,05), and presence of atherosclerosis plaques was associated with lower bone mineral density in the proximal part of hip (p<0,05).Conclusion: The findings about negative association between bone mineral density of hip with preclinical markers of atherosclerosis allow us to make a conclusion about their interaction.

ObjectivesThe association between osteoporosis and atherosclerosis remains controversial. We sought to define the relationship between carotid intima-media thickness and bone mineral density (BMD) in individuals of Vietnamese background.Design and settingCross-sectional study in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.ParticipantsThe study involved 1460 individuals (559 men) aged 50 years and older (average age 59 years) who were randomly recruited from the community.Outcome measuresBMD at the femoral neck and lumbar spine was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (Hologic, Waltham, Massachusetts, USA). Carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) was measured using a Philips Ultrasonography (HD7XE). The presence of atherosclerotic plaque was ascertained for each individual. The association between cIMT and BMD was analysed by a multiple linear regression model.ResultsIn unadjusted analysis, cIMT was positively associated with femoral neck BMD in men (p=0.005), but not in women (p=0.242). After adjusting for age, smoking, diabetes and hypertension, the association remained statistically significant in men (partial R2=0.005; p=0.015) but not in women (partial R2=0.008; p=0.369). When the analysis was limited to individuals aged 60 years and older, the association between cIMT and BMD was no longer statistically significant. There was no statistically significant association between cIMT and lumbar spine BMD in either men or women.ConclusionsIn Vietnamese individuals aged 50 years and older, there is a clinically non-significant but statistically significant association between carotid intima-media thickness and BMD in men, not in women.
