The World Health Organization defines osteopenia as bone mineral density (BMD) at one or more sites 1–2.49 standard deviations below that of a healthy white female reference group (T-score –1 to –2.49) [ 1 ]. Prevalence Approximately 33.6 million U.S. adults were osteopenic in 2002, ...
Osteopenia is a term to define bone density that is not normal but also not as low as osteoporosis. By definition from the World Health Organization osteopenia is defined by bone densitometry as a T score 1 to 2.5. There are many causes for osteopenia including calcium and vitamin D deficienc...

Let’s start with a definition of terms. Osteopenia refers to a decrease in bone mineral density below normal reference values, yet not low enough to meet the diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis. Clinicians assess bone mineral density using a T score, which is a numerical value determined by a...
68 prefrail adults between 65 and 94 years were assigned to four groups according to mean DXA results: osteosarcopenic [low T-score and low appendicular lean mass (aLM)], sarcopenic (low aLM), osteopenic (low T-score), and controls. Multiple linear regression analysis, adjusted for age, ...

Thus, we conclude that at least in community-dwelling men 72 years and older with Sarcopenia according to the EWGSOP-I definition there is no relevantly increased risk of osteopenia and osteoporosis. However, it is doubtful whether this result can be transferred to corresponding older women or ...

Osteopenia, defined as decreased bone mineral density and bone mass, and measured by T score or Z score [15], is associated with vertebral fractures [16] and post-operative mechanical complications [8,16,17]. Moreover, sarcopenia and osteopenia are closely related to each other. In particular...
