Correlation analysis results between analyzed biochemical parameters in included groups in this study. A: normal group, B: osteopenia group, C: osteoporosis group. A positive correlation between the progesterone levels with ICTP and spinal BMD (r = 0.47, P = 0.01 and r = 0.42, P = 0.027, respectively), as well as B-ALP with estrogen was also observed (r = 0.7, P = 0.001) in healthy individuals. Progesterone was positively correlated with femoral BMD (r = 0.437, P = 0.02) in osteopenic patients. NTX was negatively correlated with estrogen in osteoporotic patients (r = –0.4, P = 0.036). ICTP, C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen; BMD, bone mineral density; B-ALP, bone alkaline phosphatase; BMD-F and BMD-S, bone mineral density of femur and spine; B-ALP, bone alkaline phosphatase; PINP, procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide; NTX, amino-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen; ROC, receiver operating characteristics.
