Correlation Analysis Of Lumbar Bone Mineral Density Liver Fat Content and Serum Uric Acid Level Assessed byQCT
Objective The correlation analysis of lumbar bone mineral density,liver fat content,visceral fat area and serum uric acid level were analyzed based on QCT.Methods A total of 233 hospitalized middle-aged and elderly patients aged 41-80 years from June 2022 to December 2022 were selected,including 119 males and 114 females;general data such as age,height weight,body mass index and serum uric acid were collected;middle and upper abdomen were scanned with GE 256-row Revolution CT scanner,and then lumbar bone mineral density,liver fat content and visceral fat area were measured by QCT measurement software.Results Lumbar BMD was negatively correlated with age,liver fat area and visceral fat area,and positively correlated with serum uric acid,P<0.05,and the difference was statistical significance;Liver fat content was positively correlated with age,BMI,serum uric acid and visceral fat area,P<0.05,and the difference was statistically significant.Serum uric acid was positively correlated with visceral fat area and BMI,P<0.05,and the difference was statistically significant.Conclusion Age and liver fat content are risk factors affecting bone mineral density,and serum uric acid may be a protective factor affecting bone metabolism.With the increase of liver fat content,serum uric acid may be an independent risk factor for NAFLD.
