Abstract
The survival rate of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) has steadily improved. However, osteoporosis introduced by treatment is prevalent and associated with increased mortality and disability for patients with NHL. We aimed to investigate factors impacting bone mineral density (BMD) reduction and osteoporosis, and the trend of BMD after chemotherapy. Overall, 97 newly diagnosed patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) were retrospectively enrolled. CT attenuation values were measured to assess BMD levels. Although 73.2% of patients received calcium and vitamin D supplements, 44.3% showed significant BMD reduction, and baseline BMD and hemoglobin levels were the risk factors. 26.6% of patients newly developed osteoporosis post-chemotherapy where age and cumulative dose of glucocorticoid were risk factors. The results of 20 patients with consecutive follow-up showed that BMD continued to decline for 6 months post-chemotherapy and did not return to baseline values. Therefore, BMD evaluation and more positive anti-resorption treatments should be administered for high-risk patients.
期刊介绍:
Leukemia & Lymphoma in its fourth decade continues to provide an international forum for publication of high quality clinical, translational, and basic science research, and original observations relating to all aspects of hematological malignancies. The scope ranges from clinical and clinico-pathological investigations to fundamental research in disease biology, mechanisms of action of novel agents, development of combination chemotherapy, pharmacology and pharmacogenomics as well as ethics and epidemiology. Submissions of unique clinical observations or confirmatory studies are considered and published as Letters to the Editor
