The 2nd Metacarpal Cortical Index as a Simple Screening Tool for Osteopenia
Bhavika Patel,Adeel Aqil,Osman Riaz,Russ Jeffers,David Dickson 대한골대사학회 2020 대한골대사학회지 Vol.27 No.4
Background: Osteopenia is a known risk factor for sustaining skeletal fractures. Prevention of fragility fractures has obvious clinical and economic advantages, however screening all patients using a dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is controversial not only because of the cost implications but also because it would potentially involve exposing a percentage of normal patients to unnecessary radiation. We wished to assess whether a simple hand X-ray measuring the 2nd metacarpal cortical index (2MCI) could be used as a simple screening tool for identifying patients with osteopenia. Methods: We retrospectively collected the radiographic data of 206 patients who had a simple radiograph of the hand and a DXA scan within one year of each other from our picture archiving and communication system database. The 2MCI was calculated for all patients. As data was parametric, a Pearson’s correlation was performed to assess association between T scores and 2MCI. Further analysis involved the construction of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves to identify a 2MCI index, which would give the most appropriate sensitivity and specificity values for identifying the presence of osteopenia. Results: A statistically significant and moderate correlation between DXA T-scores and 2MCI values was found (r=0.54, n=206, P<0.001). Further ROC curve analysis of normal and osteopenic subjects identified that a 2MCI of 41.5 had a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 53% for detecting osteopenia. Conclusions: Our results support the use of the 2MCI as a simple screening tool for identifying patients with osteopenia.

Background: The aim of our study was to determine the rate and preoperative predictors of intraoperative fracture (IOF) during hip hemiarthroplasty (HA) in patients who have sustained a fragility hip fracture injury. Methods: We reviewed 626 patients who underwent HA at our institution using the National Hip Fracture Database. Various patient- and surgery-related data including demographic information, cement usage, surgeon grade, time to surgery, and operative duration were collected. The metaphyseal diaphyseal index and modified canal bone ratio were measured on preoperative radiographs. We compared patients with and without IOF with respect to all variables collected. Multivariate regression modeling was used to identify significant preoperative risk factors for IOF. Results: There was a 7% incidence of IOF in our cohort exclusively comprising of Vancouver A fractures. The majority of these complications were treated nonoperatively (52%). There was no statistically significant difference with respect to cement usage, surgeon grade, operative duration, time to surgery, and radiographic parameters collected. Increasing age was found to be the most significant preoperative risk factor for predicting IOF (p = 0.024, overall relative risk = 1.06). Conclusions: Our identified predictor of increasing age is nonmodifiable and illustrates the importance of meticulous surgical technique in older patients. Furthermore, its independence from fixation methods or prosthesis design as a predictor of IOF may support using an uncemented prosthesis in patients at risk from cement implantation.
