SURVEY OF BONE MINERAL DENSITY AND SOME RELATED FACTORS IN PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY LUMBAR DEGENERATION AT AGRICULTURAL GENERAL HOSPITAL
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: 1. To investigate the bone mineral density in patients with primary lumbar spondylosis. 2. To study some related factors to bone mineral density in the study group. Subjects and method: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 103 patients with primary lumbar spondylosis at the Internal Medicine Clinic - Agricultural General Hospital from August 2024 to May 2025. Results: The average bone mineral density in the lumbar spine was 0.948 ± 0.181 g/cm2, the patients with osteoporosis accounted for 25.2%. Risk factors for decreased lumbar spine bone mineral density include: older age, female gender, and a prolonged postmenopausal period. Risk factors for increased lumbar spine bone mineral density include: the degree of lumbar spine osteophytes and BMI. Conclusion: Factors such as age, gender, BMI, and the degree of lumbar spine spurs affected bone mineral density in the lumbar spine, but the degree of influence was small.
