Sumario:Objective: to analyze the association between blood lipid metabolism and osteoporosis (OP) in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods: a total of 1158 older patients with T2DM treated by the Department of Endocrinology, Peking University International Hospital, were retrospectively analyzed, including 541 postmenopausal women and 617 men. Results: (1) Levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were significantly higher in the OP group, while levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were higher in the non-osteoporotic group (both p < 0.05). (2) Age, parathyroid hormone (PTH), total cholesterol (TC) and LDL-C were negatively linked to the patients’ bone mineral density (BMD) (all p < 0.05), while the body mass index (BMI), uric acid (UA) level, HDL-C level and glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were positively related to their BMD (all p < 0.05). (3) In postmenopausal women, after adjustment for other indexes, raised LDL-C is an independent risk factor for OP (OR = 3.38, 95% CI 1.64, 6.98, p < 0.05) while raised HDL-C is protective (OR = 0.49, 95% CI 0.24, 0.96, p < 0.05). However, raised HDL-C was protective against OP (OR = 0.07, 95% CI 0.01, 0.53, p < 0.05). Conclusion: In older T2DM patients, the effect of blood lipid levels is related to sex. Our study conducted a detailed sex stratification. In addition to seeing the traditional risk factors of OP, such as age, sex, and BMI, we comprehensively analyzed the correlation between the blood glucose level, complications, and blood lipids with OP. HDL-C is a protective factor for OP in both men and women, while LDL-C independently predicts OP in postmenopausal women.
