Abstract:
Oxidative stress (OS) is implicated in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PO). Results show an imbalance between antioxidative and oxidative markers in PO. Thus, monitoring of OS-related biomarkers and keeping balance between reactive oxygen species and antioxidant system are beneficial to the diagnosis and prognosis of PO.
Purpose:
Oxidative stress (OS) has been implicated in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PO). However, the relations between OS-related markers and PO are controversial. This study aimed to quantitatively and comprehensively assess the roles of OS-related biomarkers in PO.
Methods:
Relevant articles were retrieved from electronic databases. All OS-associated biomarkers with at least 2 independent study outcomes were meta-analyzed. The pooled standardized mean differences (SMD) with its 95% confidence intervals (CI) were presented.
Results:
A total of 36 studies involving 16 OS-related biomarkers were investigated. The overall results showed that total oxidant status (TOS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), hydroperoxides (HY), paraoxonase (PON1), nitric oxide (NO), and homocysteine (Hcy) were not statistically different between the PO and control groups, whereas significantly increased levels of oxidative stress index (OSI), malondialdehyde (MDA), advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), and vitamin B12, along with decreased total antioxidant status (TAS), total antioxidant power (TAP), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), uric acid (UA), and folate, were detected in the PO group. Subgroup analysis based on biological samples displayed significantly elevated NO in erythrocyte and Hcy in serum, along with decreased SOD in serum.
Conclusion:
Monitoring of certain OS-related biomarkers might be beneficial to the diagnosis and prognosis of PO.

Bone Disorders
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Hormonal Regulation of the Menstrual Cycle
At puberty, GnRH begins a pulsatile release pattern, which triggers the anterior pituitary gland to secrete follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). The frequency and amplitude of GnRH pulses vary across the menstrual cycle, with faster pulses favoring LH release and slower pulses favoring FSH...
