Aim:
The present study aimed to analyze the influence of Type 2 diabetes on bone mineral density (BMD) and panoramic
radiomorphometry in postmenopausal females, comparing with results from nondiabetic postmenopausal females.
Methods:
A total of 228 postmenopausal females (mean age: 59.51 ± 11.08 years) were included in this study. Demographics, T scores
and Z scores from peripheral dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and mandibular cortical index (MCI) from panoramic radiographs
were assessed. Mean comparison between results for diabetics and non-diabetics was carried out with the Student’s t-test. In addition,
non-parametric correlations between MCI and DXA results were carried out with Spearman’s test, at a level of significance of 5%.
Results:
Mean Z score values were significantly higher in diabetics than in non-diabetics (p 5 0.001). T and Z score values were also
significantly correlated with MCI (r 5 0.428, p 5 0.001, and r 5 0.356, p 5 0.022, respectively).
Conclusions:
Within the limitations of this study, the present results suggest that Type 2 diabetes might increase BMD in
postmenopausal females.
