BACKGROUND: Individuals with high systemic bone mineral density (BMD) may have an increased risk of incident knee osteoarthritis (OA). Besides that, radiographic osteophytes are strongly associated with BMD. Because of these reasons, the aim of the study was to investigate the possible association between radiological subchondral bone cyst (SBC) grade and systemic BMD and vitamin D status in the postmenopausal female patients with knee OA in a crosss-sectional study.
METHODS: This study included of 48 osteoporosis treatment-free postmenopausal patients diagnosed with symptomatic medial compartment knee OA. BMD analysis was performed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and serum vitamin D levels were measured after recording patients' findings. Each knee was scanned using computed tomography (CT), and categorical SBC scores were graded for the medial and lateral tibiofemoral (TF) and patellofemoral (PF) compartments and further calculated as compartmental total, total TF and grand total of both TF compartments. SBC scores were analysed with correlation analysis.
RESULTS: The patient population was characterized by radiographic joint space narrowing, obesity and low vitamin D status. Median medial total and grand total TF SBC scores were significantly different between the patient groups according to the Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) radiographic grading (p = 0.006 and p = 0.007, respectively). There were no correlations between femoral BMD values and SBC scores. However, positive correlations were detected significantly between L1 - 4 DXA values and TF SBC scores, but not with PF SBC scores (p = 0.005 for the correlation between L1 - 4 BMD and medial compartments total TF SBC score, p = 0.021 for the correlation between L1 - 4 BMD and grand total TF SBC score). No significant correlations were found with Vitamin D levels.
CONCLUSIONS: Development of TF OA high-grade SBCs may be linked to systemic bone mass as represented by trabecular bone-rich lumbar vertebrae. The relationship might point to the importance of bone stiffness as an acting factor in knee OA possibly with mechanical energy transfer to the joint.
