ABSTRACT
The relationships between body composition and bone mineral density are well established but the contribution of body composition to the risk of fracture (Fx) has rarely been evaluated prospectively. We analyzed the risk of Fx by body composition in 595 postmenopausal women (mean age 66±8years) from a longitudinal cohort study (Os des Femmes de Lyon). We assessed the risk of the first incident fragility Fx according to body composition obtained from whole-body DXA abdominal visceral (VFAT) and subcutaneous fat mass (SFAT), total body fat mass (FM), lean mass index (LMI) and appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI). During a median [IQ] follow-up of 13.1years [1.9], 138 women sustained a first incident Fx, including 85 women with a major osteoporotic Fx (MOP Fx hip, clinical spine, humerus or wrist). After adjustment for age, women who sustained Fx had lower BMI (-4%, p=0.01), LMI (-6%, p=0.002) and ASMI (-3%, p=0.003), compared with women without Fx. After adjustment for age, prevalent Fx, physical activity, incident falls and FN BMD, each SD increase of baseline values of LMI and ASMI was associated with decreased Fx risk with adjusted hazard ratios of 0.76 for both of p≤0.02. Those associations were similar after accounting for the competing risk of death. VFAT and SFAT were associated with Fx risk in the multivariate model only for MOP Fx and the association did not persist after consideration of competing mortality. We conclude that lean mass and appendicular muscle mass indexes are associated with the risk of fracture in postmenopausal women independently of BMD and clinical risk factors.
