Özet

Aim: In this study, the correlation between the change in bone mineral density (BMD) and the numerical value of the systemic immune inflammation index (SII) in postmenopausal Turkish women was investigated. Material and methods: The study comprised patients who had undergone menopause for at least one year and whose blood samples were examined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) on the same day. A retrospective evaluation of 527 postmenopausal women was performed. Age, body mass index (BMI), BMD, t score, neutrophil-lymphocyte-platelet-monocyte counts, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and SII (platelet count x neutrophil count/lymphocyte count) values were calculated and recorded. Results: When the data were analyzed with the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS; IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, version 26.0. Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.), neutrophil (p<0.001), lymphocyte (p=0.004), monocytes (p=0.002), platelet distribution width (PDW) (p=0.02), procalcitonin (PCT) (p=0.04), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (p=0.001), C-reactive protein (CRP) (p=0.001), NLR (p=0.001), PLR (p=0.004), MLR (p=0.003), and SII (p=0.001) values were found to be higher in the postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) group than in the normal and osteopenia groups (p<0.05). When the platelet (p=0.15), mean platelet volume (MPV) (p=0.07), and 25-OH vitamin-D (p=0.15) values were compared, no correlation was found between the groups (normal, osteopenia, and PMO) (p>0.05). Conclusion: This study revealed that NLR, PLR, MLR, and SII values were inversely correlated with the change in BMD in postmenopausal Turkish women. These biomarkers, which are obtained from a simple, affordable, and accessible routine blood examination, may play an effective role in the early diagnosis and prevention of PMO in the future.
