Osteoporos Int 2024; 35:401-412. [PMID: 37870561 PMCID: PMC10867062 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-023-06949-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/24/2023]
Abstract
This review aims to evaluate the accuracy of various mandibular radiomorphometric indices in comparison with DEXA BMD measurements in the diagnosis of osteopenia and osteoporosis based on a meta-analysis of the sensitivity and specificity of the indices. PRISMA statement was followed. The materials for analysis were collected in August 2023 by searching three databases: PubMed Central, Web of Science, and Scopus. The selection of studies consisted of three selection stages, and 64 articles were finally obtained. Quality assessment was performed with the QUADAS-2 tool, and the general methodological quality of retrieved studies was low. Statistical analysis was performed based on 2 × 2 tables and estimated sensitivity and specificity were obtained using SROC curves. The most used indices were MCI, MCW and PMI. The best results in detecting reduced BMD obtained for MCW ≤ 3 mm, estimated sensitivity and specificity were 0.712 (95% CI, 0.477-0.870) and 0.804 (95% CI, 0.589-0.921), respectively. The most prone to the risk of bias is the MCI due to the examiner's subjectivism. Radiomorphometric indices of the mandible can be useful as a screening tool to identify patients with low BMD, but should not be used as a diagnostic method. Further research needs to focus on analysing the ability of the indices to detect osteoporosis and also in combination the indices with clinical parameters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemophilia is associated with an increased risk of developing osteoporosis and osteopenia. The aim of the study was to interpret the usefulness of fractal analysis of the trabecular bone of the mandible (FD) and selected radiomorphic indices (the antegonial index (AI) and Klemetti index (KI)) to assess the risk of reduced bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with hemophilia A/B. METHODS The study group consisted of 50 patients with type A/B hemophilia. The control group consisted of 25 males without congenital bleeding disorders. The patients had a panoramic radiograph taken with the same X-ray machine (Vistapano S, Durr Dental, Bietigheim-Bissingen, Germany). The AudaXCeph software (Audax d.o.o., Ljubljana, Slovenia) was used to evaluate the AI index, and the ImageJ, software with a specially prepared script, was used to evaluate the FD. The mandibular cortex was assessed distal to the mental foramen using the Klemetti index. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences between the AI, KI and FD values between the study group and the control group. CONCLUSIONS This study indicated the lack of usefulness of AI, KI and fractal analysis in identifying patients with hemophilia at risk of reduced bone mass.

Abstract
Introduction Osteoporosis is a disease that is characterised by low bone mineral density (BMD), and loss of structural and biomechanical properties that are essential in maintaining bone homeostasis. Osteoporosis is diagnosed by clinical measurement of BMD and is the best predictor of osteoporosis. The study was conducted with the aim of assessing the effectiveness of orthopantomogram (OPG) as a screening tool for osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and chronic drug users. Objectives The primary objective of the current study was to assess the mandibular cortical width and antegonial index in postmenopausal women and chronic drug users, the secondary objective was to compare the mandibular cortical width and antegonial index of postmenopausal women and chronic drug users with that of the control group (healthy individual). Methods Three groups were taken in this study with a sample size of 300 with 100 OPG in each group. The groups categorised in the study were postmenopausal women, patients under drugs (glucocorticoids, proton pump inhibitor, anti-epileptic drugs, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) and the control group and the parameters assessed were antegonial index and mandibular cortical width. Results Results were tabulated and analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, IBM Corp., Version 26.0, Armonk, NY). The normality tests Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilks test results reveal that the variables (both indices) follow the normal distribution. The mandibular cortical width was 3.44, 2.66 and 2.96 in the normal, postmenopausal women and women on drugs respectively. The antegonial index was 163.5, 157.2 and 158.8 in the normal, postmenopausal women and women on drugs respectively. Conclusion From the above results, it is evident that there is a statistically significant reduction in antegonial index and mandibular cortical width in postmenopausal women compared to normal individuals. Alterations of this value are suggestive that early pre-clinical changes of osteoporosis can be detected in the high-risk group using OPG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is a chronic, multifactorial skeletal disease that occurs especially in women following a decrease in estrogen levels and decrease in bone mineral density. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between qualitative and quantitative indexes in panoramic radiographs and quantitative indexes in CBCT images with femoral and vertebral BMD in postmenopausal women. METHODS This comparative cross-sectional study was performed on postmenopausal women aging 40 to 80 years attending for obtaining either panoramic radiograph or mandibular CBCT scan. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) was performed from the femur and lumbar vertebra. Quantitative parameters of mental index (MI), panoramic mandibular index (PMI), antegonial index (AI) as well as qualitative parameters of mandibular cortical index (MCI) and trabecular bone pattern (TP) were evaluated in panoramic radiographs. Quantitative parameters computed tomography mandibular index (CTMI), computed tomography index (inferior) [CTI(I)] and computed tomography index (superior) [CTI(S)] were analyzed in CBCT images. Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests and Pearson correlation coefficient were used (α = 0.05). RESULTS In individuals with panoramic radiography, statistically significant correlations were observed between MI with vertebral and femoral T-score, AI with vertebral and femoral T-score (except for the right AI with femoral T-score), and TP with vertebral and femoral T-score (p < 0.05). In the group with CBCT scans, the correlations between CTMI with vertebral and femoral T-score, CTI(I) with vertebral and femoral T-score, and CTI(S) with vertebral and femoral T-score were statistically significant (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS in CBCT images, quantitative indexes of CTMI, CTI(I), and CTI(S), and in panoramic images, quantitative indexes of MI and AI and qualitative index of TP can be used to predict the possibility of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

Abstract
Background: The study aimed to evaluate radiomorphometric indices derived from panoramic X-rays and selected blood markers of bone turnover and neutrophil extracellular traps, with a view to identifying hemophilic patients at risk of developing osteoporosis. Methods: The study consisted of 50 adult men with hemophilia A and B (mild, moderate, and severe). The control group consisted of 25 healthy adult men. In both groups, blood samples were collected to determine concentrations of citrullinated histone H3 (CH3) and osteocalcin (BGLAP) with ELISA tests, and panoramic X-rays were obtained. Images were imported into AudaXCeph software to calculate two radiomorphometric indices: mental index (MI) and panoramic mandibular index (PMI). Concentrations of BGLAP and CH3 were compared with MI and PMI values in patients with and without hemophilia. Results: There were statistically significant differences in BGLAP, CH3, and PMI between the study and the control group (p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a predictive value for PMI, BGLAP, and CH3.The ROC curve with cutoff point (Youden index) at 0.40—PMI was calculated. No correlation was observed for the PMI index in any particular subgroup of patients. No correlation between MI and BGLAP/CH3 was observed. Conclusions: Simultaneous use of PMI value and BGLAP and CH3 levels may allow the identification of patients with hemophilia who requirea detailed diagnosis of osteoporosis with DXA.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common, but silent disease until it is complicated by fractures that are associated with morbidity and mortality. Over the past few years, although deep learning-based disease diagnosis on chest radiographs has yielded promising results, osteoporosis screening remains unexplored. Paired data with 13,026 chest radiographs and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) results from the Health Screening and Promotion Center of Asan Medical Center, between 2012 and 2019, were used as the primary dataset in this study. For the external test, we additionally used the Asan osteoporosis cohort dataset (1089 chest radiographs, 2010 and 2017). Using a well-performed deep learning model, we trained the OsPor-screen model with labels defined by DXA based diagnosis of osteoporosis (lumbar spine, femoral neck, or total hip T-score ≤ -2.5) in a supervised learning manner. The OsPor-screen model was assessed in the internal and external test sets. We performed substudies for evaluating the effect of various anatomical subregions and image sizes of input images. OsPor-screen model performances including sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC) were measured in the internal and external test sets. In addition, visual explanations of the model to predict each class were expressed in gradient-weighted class activation maps (Grad-CAMs). The OsPor-screen model showed promising performances. Osteoporosis screening with the OsPor-screen model achieved an AUC of 0.91 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.90-0.92) and an AUC of 0.88 (95% CI, 0.85-0.90) in the internal and external test set, respectively. Even though the medical relevance of these average Grad-CAMs is unclear, these results suggest that a deep learning-based model using chest radiographs could have the potential to be used for opportunistic automated screening of patients with osteoporosis in clinical settings. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This systematic literature review addressed the use of mandibular cortical index (MCI), assessed by panoramic radiography, for the identification of postmenopausal women at risk of osteoporosis. METHODS Databases were searched for original research studies published from September 2010 to September 2020 using the following keywords: "postmenopausal osteoporosis" and synonyms combined with "panoramic radiography" and synonyms. Only English language manuscripts and studies pertaining to the MCI were selected. RESULTS A total of 24 studies were included. The publications were highly heterogeneous in terms of the subject of interest, i.e. the MCI, with some studies comparing the usefulness of the MCI using panoramic radiography and using cone beam computed tomography, and others comparing different radiomorphometric indexes developed for panoramic radiography. CONCLUSIONS Based on the literature included in this systematic review, we conclude that the MCI is useful as an auxiliary tool for identifying postmenopausal females at risk of low bone mineral density (BMD), as it correlates with skeletal BMD measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry. Nevertheless, other radiomorphometric indexes obtained from panoramic radiographs, such as panoramic mandibular index, mental index, and mandibular cortical width, are also valuable as auxiliary tools in the identification of postmenopausal females at risk, as they also correlate with BMD. Thus, it is not possible to affirm which index is the most reliable for the identification of postmenopausal females considering the literature screened.

Abstract
Osteoporotic fractures are associated with an increased risk of subsequent fractures, a higher rate of mortality, and incremental medical costs. Incidental findings, which include some measurements related to the mandibular inferior cortex and the alveolar trabecular bone pattern of the mandible determined on panoramic radiographs, are considered to be a useful tool for identifying asymptomatic individuals at risk of having osteoporosis and/or fragility fractures. We undertook a worldwide literature survey and present the following clinical recommendations. Postmenopausal female dental patients with a mandibular inferior cortical width of less than 3 mm on panoramic radiographs may be at risk of having low skeletal bone mineral density (BMD) or osteoporosis, but not fragility fractures. In addition, those with a severely eroded mandibular inferior cortex may have an increased risk of having low skeletal BMD, osteoporosis, and fragility fractures. The alveolar trabecular bone pattern of the mandible might be useful for identifying female dental patients at risk of having fragility fractures, although further investigation is necessary to confirm this possibility. These incidental findings on panoramic radiographs, when used for identifying asymptomatic postmenopausal female patients at risk of having osteoporosis in general dental practice, may be helpful in reducing the incidence of first fractures, with a consequent reduction in the secondary fractures, medical costs, and mortality associated with osteoporotic fragility fractures, without incurring any additional cost.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the study was to investigate whether salivary mineral content may be associated with bone status in women after menopause. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study group consisted of 125 postmenopausal women aged 64.3 ± 6.9 yr, derived from the epidemiological SilesiaOsteoActive Study. All participants underwent hip and spine bone densitometry using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, dental examination, and saliva content analysis. Data for salivary pH, copper, calcium, phosphorus, and zinc concentrations were evaluated. RESULTS Mean femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) was 0.739 ± 0.118 g/cm2, total hip BMD 0.891 ± 0.14 g/cm2, and spine BMD 0.868 ± 0.14 g/cm2. Salivary pH was significantly lower in women with spinal osteoporosis defined as T-score below -2.5, compared to individuals with normal BMD (pH: 6.65 ± 0.67 vs 6.96 ± 0.58, p < 0.05). There was a significant though weak inverse correlation between Ca concentration in saliva and femoral neck BMD (r = -0.23, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS High salivary calcium content and low salivary pH may be indicative of low hip and decreased spine BMD, respectively. These associations may reflect demineralization process (calcium redistribution) influencing bone, and a negative effect of acidity on mineral tissues, although causal pathway remains not clear.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) childhood survivors of hematologic malignancies are prone to develop late osteopenia and osteoporosis. The purpose of this retrospective study was to quantitatively and qualitatively assess bone mineral density (BMD) in HSCT childhood survivors and to compare the effectiveness of both qualitative and quantitative assessment methods. METHODS DESIGN BMD assessment using panoramic radiographs of childhood HSCT survivors aged 3.69-18.88 years using two radiomorphometric indexes. Case-control double-blinded comparison of panoramic radiographic images from childhood HSCT survivors and age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Quantitative assessment was performed by measuring the cortical bone width bilaterally at the mental foramen level. Qualitative assessment was performed using the mandibular cortical index bilaterally on all panoramic images. RESULTS Radiographs were taken 6.59-83.95 months after bone marrow transplantation [median±SD=25.92±24.9 months]. Fifty-two panoramic radiographic images were analyzed: 21 from HSCT survivors and 31 from healthy controls aged 3.69-25.1 years [mean±SD=11.89±5.28 years]. The mandibular cortical bone width was 17% smaller in childhood HSCT survivors than in healthy controls (case group: 2.420, control group: 3.307; p=0.00617). Qualitative analysis revealed an increased frequency of severe mandibular cortical erosion in childhood HSCT survivors, although no significant difference was observed (case group: 1.540, control group: 1.490; p=0.32). The interobserver agreement was 85% (Kappa index). CONCLUSIONS HSCT childhood survivors exhibit quantitative and qualitative mandibular bone impairments. Further studies are needed to establish an association between mandibular cortical bone impairment and osteoporosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the usefulness of the mandibular cortical index (MCI) obtained by digital panoramic radiography (DPR) and by panoramic reconstruction (PR) of cone-beam CT (CBCT) with three different slice thicknesses for the screening of low bone mineral density (BMD) in post-menopausal women. METHODS Two trained oral and maxillofacial radiologists assessed the MCI based on the morphology of the mandibular bone cortex (classified as C1, C2 or C3). The DPR and PR of CBCT with slice thicknesses of 5, 15 or 25 mm were compared to the BMD obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in post-menopausal women. Measures related to accuracy were calculated with MedCalc software. The confidence interval was set at 95%. RESULTS 54 women (mean age 58.70 ± 7.35 years) participated in the study. The sensitivity and specificity values obtained for DPR were 52.6% and 56.2%, respectively, and values for PR of CBCT with 5, 15, and 25 mm slice thicknesses were 63.1% and 43.7%, 50.0% and 50.0%, and 52.6% and 62.5%, respectively. For the tools evaluated, the positive likelihood ratio ranged from 1.00 to 1.40 and negative likelihood ratio from 0.76 to 1.00. The positive predictive value (PPV) ranged from 70.4 to 76.9% and the negative predictive value (NPV) from 29.6 to 35.7%. Among the examinations, the highest value for area under the curve (AUC) was obtained for CBCT with 25 mm slice thickness (57.6%). CONCLUSIONS The MCI calculated by DPR and CBCT differed with regard to accuracy. Within the limitations of this study, the PR of CBCT with 25 mm slice thicknesses seems to be the most accurate among the examinations evaluated. Should the dentist be attentive, DPR and CBCT may be useful tools for the screening of low BMD in post-menopausal women, facilitating their timely referral for further assessment.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the effect of collagen peptides from walleye pollock skin on the microstructure of osteoporosis model in ovariectomized rats, and to explore the feasibility of preventing and treating oste- oporosis. Methods Sixty adult Wistar female rats, weighing (250±10) g, were randomly divided into 5 groups (12 rats each group): normal group (group A), osteoporosis model group (group B), osteoporosis model+collagen peptides from walleye pollock skin prevention group (group C), osteoporosis model+low concentration of collagen peptides from walleye pollock skin treatment group (group D), and osteoporosis model+high concentration of collagen peptides from walleye pollock skin treatment group (group E). The rats in groups B, C, D, and E were removed bilateral ovarian to establish osteoporosis model. The rats in group C were treated with stomach perfusion of the collagen peptides from walleye pollock skin (1.0 g/kg) from 4 weeks after operation for 6 weeks; and the rats in groups D and E were treated with stomach perfusion of the collagen peptides from walleye pollock skin (0.5, 1.0 g/kg respectively) at 6 weeks after operation for 6 weeks. The rats in groups A and B were given equal volume of normal saline at the same time after operation. At 24 hours after the last administration, the femoral gray value of rats in groups A and B were measured by X-ray film; HE staining was performed on the proximal tibial bone of the left side in 4 groups; the histopathological changes of the bone were observed and the trabecular number (TN), mean trabecular plate thickness (MTPT), mean trabecular plate spacing (MTPS), trabecular bone volume (TBV), mean bone cortical thickness (MBCT) were measured; immunohistochemical staining was performed to observe the expression levels of caltitonin receptor (CTR) and interleukin 1 (IL-1). Results The femoral gray value of group B was significantly lower than that of group A ( t=45.130, P=0.000), which indicated that the ovariectomized rat model was successfully prepared. Histological observation showed that TN, MTPS, TBV, and MBCT in groups A, C, and E were significantly different from those in group B ( P<0.05). The histological parameters of bone tissue in group C were significantly different from those in groups D and E ( P<0.05). TN, MTPS, TBV, and MBCT in group D were significantly different from those in group A ( P<0.05); only MTPS in group E was significantly different from that in group A ( P<0.05). MTPS, TBV, and MBCT in group E were significantly different from those in group D ( P<0.05). The immunohistochemical staining showed that the levels of CTR and IL-1 in groups A, C, D, and E were lower than those in group B, in groups C and E were lower than in group D, showing significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusion Collagen peptides from walleye pollock skin can improve the bone microstructure of osteoporotic rats, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of CTR and IL-1 expression in bone tissue, but it has not been found to prevent osteoporosis.
