The purpose of the study was to evaluate the bone mineral density (BMD) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels in patients with silica exposure.
The study included 104 male subjects with silica exposure and 36 healthy subjects. Posterior-anterior radiographs were classified according to the International Labour Office (ILO) Classification. Category 0 patients were classified as Group I (n = 54), category I patients were classified as Group II (n = 25), Category II and III patients were classified as Group III (n = 25).
Femoral neck BMD values were significantly lower in Group III (p = 0.007). Lumbar vertebrae BMD values were significantly lower in all groups with silica exposure than in the control group (p = 0.000). The osteoporosis rate was significantly higher in Group III (p = 0.000). Subjects with silica exposure were determined to have diminished 25(OH)D levels (p = 0.012).
The results of this study demonstrated that subjects with silica exposure have diminished BMD and 25(OH)D levels.
本研究旨在评估接触二氧化硅患者的骨矿物质密度(BMD)和25-羟基维生素D(25(OH)D)水平。
本研究纳入104名接触二氧化硅的男性受试者和36名健康受试者。后前位X线片根据国际劳工组织(ILO)分类法进行分类。0类患者分为I组(n = 54),I类患者分为II组(n = 25),II类和III类患者分为III组(n = 25)。
III组的股骨颈骨密度值显著更低(p = 0.007)。所有接触二氧化硅的组的腰椎骨密度值均显著低于对照组(p = 0.000)。III组的骨质疏松率显著更高(p = 0.000)。接触二氧化硅的受试者被确定25(OH)D水平降低(p = 0.012)。
本研究结果表明,接触二氧化硅的受试者骨密度和25(OH)D水平降低。
