Résumé : |
Objective To determine bone mineral density (BMD) z scores in adults with cerebral palsy (CP), an understudied population. Design Cross-sectional. Setting Medical facility. Participants Adults (N=48; mean age, 34.3+5.8y; range, 2546y) with CP. Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures BMD z scores at the lumbar spine and hip using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), body mass index (BMI), and ambulatory status. Results Mean BMD z scores were −1.40 for the lumbar spine, −1.36 for the total hip, and −1.02 for the femoral neck. The z scores were significantly lower for the nonambulatory group at all 3 sites (P<.05 significant differences were found among gmfcs levels for the lumbar spine and total hip z scores mean level v lowest mobility significantly lower than i iii iv a positive relationship between age was p=".005)." relationships bmi all sites> Conclusions This study contributes to the sparse literature about bone health in adults with CP. In contrast with pediatric data, z scores did not decrease as a function of age in this adult cohort. This information is important for clinicians considering treatment options for this population. |
