Abstract
As one of novel inflammatory indexes proposed in recent years, systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) can comprehensively reflect the inflammatory and immune state of the body. This study aims to explore the relationship between SII and osteoporosis among middle-aged and older people. Our study includes 20,497 individuals from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2008, and target study population are confined to people aged 45 years and above. SII is calculated as platelet count × neutrophil count/lymphocyte count. Multivariate logistic regression analysis is used to explore the link between SII and osteoporosis, and receiver operating characteristics curve is used to screen optimal cut-off value of SII for indicating the occurrence of osteoporosis. A total of 435 people with osteoporosis are screened among 4625 middle-aged and older people, and individuals in osteoporosis group have higher SII than those in nonosteoporosis group (p = .024). Logistic regression analysis indicates that with the enhancement of SII, prevalence of osteoporosis in each tertile category also increases (p < .001). This tendency is also not changed in univariate model (p < .001), as well as the adjustments for different parameters. Moreover, we also identify that SII of 530.09 is the optimal cut-off value for indicating the occurrence of osteoporosis among middle-aged and older people. This present NHANES-based study noticed that higher SII is positively linked to osteoporosis among middle-aged and older people, and SII should not exceed 530.09 for them to obtain a potentially lower risk of osteoporosis.
