Abstract

Both osteoporosis and metabolic syndrome are global burden disorders, especially due to remarkably increased in aging population. The study was conducted to investigate the association between metabolic syndrome, its components and osteoporosis in women above 50 years old. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 174 women above 50 years old who volunteered to take part in Vietnam Osteoporosis Study at Ton Duc Thang University from September 2020 to January 2021. In conclusion, we found that metabolic syndrome resulted in positive association with femoral neck osteoporosis after adjusting for age and weight (adjusted OR = 2.62; 95% confidence interval: 1.07 – 6.4; p = 0.035). Moreover, regarding the relationship between five metabolic syndrome components and osteoporosis, only abdominal obesity was positively associated with femoral neck osteoporosis after adjusting for age and weight (adjusted OR = 3.01; 95% confidence interval: 1.05 – 8.62; p = 0.041).
