Correlation of serum anti-Mullerian hormone and Inhibin-B levels with osteoporosis of menopausal woman in Chinese Daur ethnic group.

Abstract

To investigate the diagnostic value of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) and Inhibin B (InhB) in menopausal women with osteoporosis from the Chinese Daur ethnic group. A total of 175 menopausal women were selected and divided into the osteoporosis group (N = 90) and the control group (N = 85). BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and laboratory indicators of osteoporosis, for example, serum osteocalcin (OC), β-collagen special sequence (β-CTX), and procollagen type I amino-terminal propeptide (PINP), bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP), AMH, and InhB were measured by commercial kits. The relationship between osteoporosis and AMH or InhB was analyzed. The predictive values of AMH and InhB were reflected by the ROC curve and logistic regression. The level of BMD was decreased and the levels of OC, β-CTX, PINP, and BALP of the menopausal osteoporosis group were increased. The concentration of AMH and InhB in the menopausal osteoporosis group was decreased and they had connections with each other. AMH and InhB could be used as independent indicators for the occurrence of osteoporosis in menopausal women and their combination had a higher diagnostic value. AMH and InhB measurements in menopausal women had a certain clinical significance in the detection of osteoporosis. The occurrence of osteoporosis was related to BMD, OC, β-CTX, BALP, AMH, and InhB.
