Abstract
The study shows that addition of statins to osteoporotic therapy in postmenopausal women with different cardiovascular risk beside desired hypolipidemic effect and reduction of arterial stiffness also elevates BMD at femoral neck by 4,9% from the baseline (p<0.05). Bisphosphonates therapy in postmenopausal women gives additional reduction of central systolic arterial pressure of 4.1 mm Hg with the tendency to improvement in the arterial stiffness. The dynamics of aortal stiffness was correlated with changers in intensity of bone remodeling (for N-terminal propeptides of type I procollagen (P1NP) p =0.47, p=0.019; for carboxyl-terminal telopeptide of collagen type I (CITP1) p=0.40, p=0.05) as well as systolic blood pressure (r=0.52, p=0.008). Conclusions. Bisphosphonate therapy and its combination with statins may influence the on parameters of blood pressure and aortic stiffness in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis.
