Background:
As one of novel inflammatory indexes proposed in recent years, systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) can comprehensively reflect the inflammatory and immune state of the body. This study aims to explore the relationship between SII and osteoporosis among middle-aged and older people.
Materials And Methods:
Our study includes 20,497 individuals from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2008, and target study population are confined to people aged 45 years and above. SII is calculated as platelet count × neutrophil count/lymphocyte count. Multivariate logistic regression analysis is used to explore the link between SII and osteoporosis, and receiver operating characteristics curve is used to screen optimal cut-off value of SII for indicating the occurrence of osteoporosis.
Results:
A total of 435 people with osteoporosis are screened among 4625 middle-aged and older people, and individuals in osteoporosis group have higher SII than those in nonosteoporosis group (p = .024). Logistic regression analysis indicates that with the enhancement of SII, prevalence of osteoporosis in each tertile category also increases (p < .001). This tendency is also not changed in univariate model (p < .001), as well as the adjustments for different parameters. Moreover, we also identify that SII of 530.09 is the optimal cut-off value for indicating the occurrence of osteoporosis among middle-aged and older people.
Conclusions:
This present NHANES-based study noticed that higher SII is positively linked to osteoporosis among middle-aged and older people, and SII should not exceed 530.09 for them to obtain a potentially lower risk of osteoporosis.

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...

Vitamin A
Vitamin A is involved in the process of bone remodeling. Retinoic acid, the active metabolite of Vitamin A, has nuclear receptors in osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which are involved in bone remodeling.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 acts as a cofactor during the formation of osteoblast-related proteins, such as osteocalcin. Vitamin B12 plays a role...
