Orthorexia Nervosa in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Osteoporosis
In brief
A total of 64 female patients diagnosed with osteoporosis based on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements performed within the last six months, and 64 age-matched healthy controls without osteoporosis, will be included in our study. Sociodemographic data such as age, sex, height, weight, and BMI will be recorded. Additionally, information regarding the duration of osteoporosis diagnosis, current treatments, history of fractures, history of falls, comorbidities, and smoking status will be collected. Femoral neck and L1-L4 T-scores and bone mineral density values obtained from existing DXA scans will be documented. Orthorexia nervosa-related symptoms will be assessed using the ORTO-11 scale, mood will be evaluated using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and body image will be assessed using the Body Appreciation Scale-2.
