| Abstract | Background Current research on osteoporosis (OP) in hemophilia is insufficient. The suitability of high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) for evaluating osteoporosis in hemophilia remains unclear. Aim To investigate the current status of osteoporosis and the applicability of HR-pQCT in adult hemophilia patients. Methods Thirty three hemophilia patients aged 23–49 years were recruited. X-ray examinations were performed on the bleeding joints. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and HR-pQCT were used to assess bone mineral density (BMD). The HR-pQCT values of the distal tibia and radius were compared between hemophilia patients and healthy controls(HCs). Results All bleeding joints showed local osteoporosis on X-ray. Only 33.3% of patients had a hip BMD lower than the expected value according to DXA. The Tb.vBMD(98.5 ± 44.2 mg/cm3), Tt.Ar(612.5 ± 163.5mm2),Tb.Ar(487.0 ± 175.6mm2), Ct.Ar(117.0 ± 25.7mm2), Tb.BV/TV(0.2 ± 0.1), Tb.N(0.9 ± 0.3 1/mm), Ct.Pm(96.3 ± 13.8 mm) of the distal tibia and Tt.Ar(248.4 ± 53.1mm2),Tb.Ar(186.0 ± 55.1mm2), Ct.Ar(66.1 ± 14.4 mm2), Ct.Pm(68.1 ± 7.1 mm) of the distal radius in the hemophilia group was significantly lower than the HCs(tibia Tb.vBMD:186.4 ± 44.3mg/cm3, Tt.Ar:906.8 ± 135.0mm2,Tb.Ar:743.7 ± 137.6mm2, Ct.Ar:169.3 ± 21.9mm2,Tb.BV/TV:0.3 ± 0.1, Tb.N:1.5 ± 0.2 1/mm,Ct.Pm:117.8 ± 8.2 mm; radius Tt.Ar:285.7 ± 35.6 mm2, Tb.Ar:83.8 ± 7.9mm2, Ct.Ar:0.3 ± 0.1mm2, Ct.Pm:80.2 ± 4.3 mm) with statistically significant differences (p < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed a positive correlation (r = 0.768, p = 0.016) between femoral neck BMD with DXA and total volumetric BMD(Tt.vBMD) at the distal tibia. Conclusion The bone health status of adult hemophilia patients in China is worrying. The occurrence of OP may be accompanied by varying degrees of bone loss, bone destruction, and structural abnormalities observed in both trabecular and cortical bones of the upper and lower limbs. The condition of the trabecular bones in the lower limbs is particularly severe. The correlation between BMD measurements obtained from HR-pQCT and DXA is strong. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
