description | This retrospective cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate associations between peptic ulcer disease (PUD), bone mineral density, and metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components in healthy populations. Data were collected from the health examination database of a tertiary medical center in southern Taiwan from January 2015 to December 2016. Subjects who had undergone metabolic factors assessment, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry scans were enrolled. In total, 5102 subjects were included, with mean age 52.4 ± 12.0 years. Among them, 1332 (26.1%) had PUD. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR 1.03, <i>p</i> < 0.001), male (OR 1.89, <i>p</i> < 0.001), diabetes (OR 1.23, <i>p</i> = 0.004), BMI (OR 1.03, <i>p</i> = 0.001), and GOT (OR 1, <i>p</i> = 0.003) are risk factors for PUD. Regarding MetS parameters, larger waist circumference (OR 1.26, <i>p</i> = 0.001) is associated with PUD, and high triglycerides (OR 1.20, 95% CI 1.01–1.43) is associated with gastric ulcer, while low HDL (OR 1.31, 95% CI 1.07–1.59) and osteoporosis (OR 1.44, 95% CI 1.08–1.91) are associated with duodenal ulcer. In conclusion, central obesity is associated with PUD in a middle-aged healthy population. Subjects with high triglycerides are prone to gastric ulcers, and those with osteoporosis and low HDL are prone to duodenal ulcers. |
