Abstract
Aim: The goal in this study is determine relation of fish consumption frequency and osteoporosis (OP). Material and method: This study was conducted to examine the records of postmenopausal women between the ages of 45-75. 152 patients who met the study criteria were included in the study. The cases were classified as Group 1 with weekly fish consumption 250 grams or more and Group 2 with fish consumption below 250 grams per week. Because dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) method was widely used for osteoporosis, bone mineral desity (grams: g) was classified according to dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) data. BMD values (g / cm2) were obtained through the whole body and total hip scans of the cases. BMD (L2-L4) and T-SCOR were clinically diagnosed according to L2-L4 values; normal, osteopenia and osteoporosis. Result: Forty-five (29.60%) cases were found in Group 1, and 107 (70,40%) were in Group 2. 19.73% (n: 30) of the cases in Group 1 and 1.97% (n: 3) of the cases in Group 2 were found at normal values. This value was statistically significant (p <0,05) when compared to the group without fish consumption habit. Osteoporosis was detected in 10,20% (n: 5) of Group 1, 89,79% (n: 44) of Group 2, 14,28% (n: 10) of osteopenia Group 1 cases and Group 85.72% (n: 60) of the 2 cases were detected. The difference between these values was not statistically significant (p> 0,05) when compared to the group without fish consumption habits. However, only five cases of fish consumption habit in Group 1 were found to be compatible with osteoporosis. The obtained values were found to be statistically significant (p <0.05). Conclusion: this study data has demonstrated a positive effect on BMD and to decrease the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women weekly fish consumption 250 grams or more.
