| dc.description.abstract | Objectives: To analyze the influence of Type 2 diabetes on bone mineral density (BMD) and panoramic radiomorphometry in postmenopausal females, comparing with results from non-diabetic postmenopausal females. | en_GB |
| dc.description.abstract | Methods: A total of 228 postmenopausal females (mean age: 59.51 ± 11.08 years) were included in this study. Demographics, T scores and Z scores from peripheral dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and mandibular cortical index (MCI) from panoramic radiographs were assessed. Mean comparison between results for diabetics and non-diabetics was carried out with the Student's t-test. In addition, non-parametric correlations between MCI and DXA results were carried out with Spearman's test, at a level of significance of 5%. | en_GB |
| dc.description.abstract | Results: Mean Z score values were significantly higher in diabetics than in non-diabetics (p = 0.001). T and Z score values were also significantly correlated with MCI (r = 0.428, p = 0.001, and r = 0.356, p = 0.022, respectively). | en_GB |
| dc.description.abstract | Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, the present results suggest that Type 2 diabetes might increase BMD in postmenopausal females. | en_GB |
