| description | Abstract Background This study aimed to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of abnormal bone mass in postmenopausal women by analysing the current situation and influencing factors of bone mass abnormalities in Tibet. Methods A total of 229 postmenopausal Tibetan women were randomly selected from six counties by a multistage cluster random sampling method. Multiple logistic regression was utilized to analyse the status and influencing factors of bone mass abnormalities in postmenopausal Tibetan women. Results Among 229 postmenopausal Tibetan women, the prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis was 54.6% and 9.6%, respectively. Age {odds ratio (OR) = 0.022 [95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.003 ~ 0.163]}, BMI [OR = 441.902 (20.899,9343.717)], altitude [OR = 18.818 (1.391,254.585)], and creatinine (CREA) levels [OR = 0.895 (0.825 ~ 0.971)] were significantly associated with the risk of osteoporosis. Conclusion Postmenopausal Tibetan women had high rates of abnormal bone mass. Age, BMI, altitude and CREA levels were associated with osteoporosis. It is suggested that relevant departments should take targeted measures to promote health education on the prevention of osteoporosis in the general population and increase the screening of high-risk groups for osteoporosis to improve the bone health of postmenopausal Tibetan women. |
