dc.description.abstract | Summary Fibular response to disuse has been described in cross-sectional but not longitudinal studies. This study assessed fbular bone changes in people with spinal cord injury. Fibular bone loss was less than in the tibia and was not correlated together. This might explain low fbular fracture incidents in these patients.
Purpose Cross-sectional studies suggest that the fbula responds diferently to loading and disuse compared to the tibia. Whilst tibial bone changes following spinal cord injury (SCI) have been established in longitudinal studies, fbular changes remain unexplored.
Methods Fibular and tibial bone parameters were assessed in 13 individuals with SCI (aged 16–76 years). Peripheral quantitative computed tomography scans were acquired at 4%, 38% and 66% distal–proximal tibia length at 5 weeks and 12 months post-injury. Changes in 4% site total bone mineral content (BMC), total cross-sectional area (CSA) and bone mineral density (BMD), and 38% and 66% sites total BMC, total CSA, cortical BMD and cortical CSA were assessed using paired T-tests. Relationships between bone loss in the two bones at equivalent sites were assessed using paired T-tests and correlation.
Results At the 4% site, fbular total BMC and BMD losses were less than tibial losses (−6.9±5.1% and−6.6±6.0% vs−14.8±12.4% and−14.4±12.4%, p=0.02 and p=0.03, respectively). Similarly, at the 66% site, fbular BMC losses were less than those in the tibia (−2.0±2.6% vs−4.3±3.6%, p=0.03), but there was no diference at 38% (−1.8±3.5% vs−3.8±2.1%, p=0.1). No correlation was observed for BMC changes between the two bones (all p>0.25).
Conclusion These results support cross-sectional evidence of smaller disuse-related bone loss in the fbula compared to the tibia. These results may in part explain lower incidence of fbula fractures in individuals with chronic SCI. The lack of association between losses in the two bones might point to diferent underlying mechanisms. | en |
