Abstract

Objective To investigate the changes of bone mineral density(BMD) in male patients with type 2 diabetes(T2DM). Methods BMD of L_ 1-4 , neck, Troch, Inter, Total and Ward's region was measured by DXA QDR-4500A in 811 male patients with T2DM. Results BMD of L_ 1-4 ,neck, Troch, Inter, Total and Ward's all decreased with age, especially that of Ward's, but BMD of the L_ 1-4 increased after 60. The courses of diabetes had no effect on BMD in any age group in these male patients. BMD increased with the body mass index (BMI). Conclusions The course of T2DM has no effect on BMD in male patients. Ward's area is a sensitive region for observing the BMD variations.
