Abstract
Thepurposeof the study was to identify anthropometric factors determining the state of bone mineral density in lumbar vertebrae in postmenopausal women.Material and methods. Anthropometry was used to determine the component composition of the body in 191 postmenopausal women aged 43 to 84 years. Bone mineral density of lumbar vertebrae was assessed by x-ray densitometry. Correlation analysis was carried out to identify the relationship between the studied parameters.Results. The frequency of occurrence of mineral density disorders of lumbar vertebrae was 63.4%, including osteopenia – 40.3%, osteoporosis – 23.1%. In persons with overweight and obesity, osteopenia was more often recorded (2.2 and 4 times, respectively), in women with normal body weight, osteoporosis was more frequent (1.2 times). Values of anthropometric parameters and component composition of the body were statistically significantly lower in women with osteopenia and osteoporosis.Conclusion. It was found that the anthropometric markers determining the mineral density of bone tissue of lumbar vertebrae in postmenopausal women may be body weight, body mass index, body surface area, muscle mass and fat mass.

Summary
Антропометрические маркеры постменопаузальных нарушений минерализации костной ткани. Цель исследования – выявить антропометрические факторы, определяющие состояние минеральной плотности костной ткани в поясничных позвонках у женщин в постменопаузе. Методом антропометрии определяли компонентный состав тела у 191 женщины в возрасте от 43 до 84 лет в постменопаузе. Минеральную плотность костной ткани поясничных позвонков оценивали методом рентгеновской денситометрии. Частота встречаемости нарушений минеральной плотности поясничных позвонков составила 63.4%, среди которых остеопения – 40.3%, остеопороз – 23.1%. Значения антропометрических параметров и компонентного состава тела были статистически достоверно меньшими у женщин с остеопенией и остеопорозом. Установлено, что в качестве антропометрических маркеров, определяющих минеральную плотность костной ткани поясничных позвонков у женщин в постменопаузе, могут выступать масса тела, индекс массы тела, площадь поверхности тела, мышечная масса и жировая масса. Ключевые слова: антропометрия, жировая масса, мышечная масса, индекс массы тела, минеральная плотность костной ткани. The purpose of the study was to identify anthropometric factors determining the state of bone mineral density in lumbar vertebrae in postmenopausal women
