Summary: | Patients with rheumatic diseases (RD) are at high risk of osteoporosis (OP) and osteoporotic fractures. The Trabecular bone score (TBS) is a relatively novel method of assessing bone quality, which independently predicts fracture risk regardless of bone mineral density (BMD). A lower TBS in patients with RD compared to controls is shown in most studies concerning TBS and RD. The data obtained indicate that TBS predicts fractures better in RD, especially in patients receiving glucocorticoids, than BMD or the FRAX algorithm. TBS degradation has been associated with disease activity in ankylosing spondylitis, systemic sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis in a few studies. However, there is little data in the literature on the effect of rheumatic disease therapy and OP treatment in patients with RD on predictive ability of TBS for incident fracture. |
