Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To analyze whether association between bone fragility and risk of fracture depends on the trauma level. METHOD:All participants along with their mothers underwent DXA scan and body measurements. The subjects answered a self-report questionnaire about their physical activities and the precipitating causes. The questionnaire results were associated with DXA performed at the baseline visit. RESULTS:A total 374 children with available DXA scan and complete follow-up of 5 years were included in the final analysis. Of the 374 children, 53 (14.2%) had one fracture, and 11 (20.7%) had more than one fracture. Based on the modified Landin classification, the trauma level was determined. Of the 53 (14.2%) children who had one fracture, 39 (73.6%) were classified, namely 19 (48.7%) with mild trauma, 16 (41%) with moderate trauma and four (10.2%) with severe trauma. Trauma level could not be assigned to 14 (26.4%) children due to limited information. Children without fractures had significantly higher values in all bone parameters compared to those with fractures caused by mild trauma. CONCLUSION:Subjects with mild trauma fractures had an inversely proportional ratio between bone fragility parameters and fracture risk compared with subjects without fractures. Level of Evidence IV, Case Series. OBJETIVO:Analisar se a associação entre fragilidade óssea e risco de fratura depende do nível de trauma. MÉTODO:Todos os participantes, juntamente com suas mães, foram submetidos à DEXA e medições corporais. Os participantes responderam um questionário de autorrelato sobre atividades físicas e descrição de como o trauma ocorreu. Os resultados do questionário foram associados à DEXA realizada na primeira visita do estudo. RESULTADOS:Um total de 374 crianças com DEXA disponível e acompanhamento completo de 5 anos foi incluído na análise final. Das 374 crianças, 53 (14,2%) tiveram uma fratura e 11 (20,7%) tiveram mais de uma fratura. Com base na classificação de Landin modificada, foi determinado o nível de trauma. Das 53 (14,2%) crianças que tiveram uma fratura, 39 (73,6%) foram classificadas, sendo 19 (48,7%) com trauma leve, 16 (41%) com trauma moderado e quatro (10,2%) com trauma grave. O nível de trauma não pôde ser atribuído a 14 (26,4%) crianças, devido a informações limitadas. As crianças sem fraturas apresentaram valores significantemente mais altos em todos os parâmetros ósseos, em comparação com os que tinham fraturas causadas por trauma leve. CONCLUSÃO:Os indivíduos com fraturas por trauma leve apresentaram relação inversamente proporcional entre os parâmetros fragilidade óssea e o risco de fratura em comparação com indivíduos sem fratura. Nível de Evidência IV, Série de Casos .
