中西医结合诊疗在骨质疏松症中的研究进展

Research Progress in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Osteoporosis through Integrative Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine

摘要: 骨质疏松症(osteoporosis)是一种以骨骼质量减少和骨组织微结构恶化为特征的慢性骨代谢性疾病，主要影响老年人，特别是女性。该病导致骨骼易于骨折，从而增加了患者的残疾和死亡风险。近年来，中西医结合诊疗骨质疏松症的研究逐渐受到关注，并取得了显著进展。这种综合治疗方法有望成为未来治疗骨质疏松症的重要手段，为患者提供更多治疗选择，改善其生活质量。然而，仍需要更多的研究来进一步验证中西医结合治疗的长期效果和安全性，以更好地指导临床实践。本论文旨在综述中西医结合在骨质疏松症治疗领域的最新研究进展。

Abstract: Osteoporosis is a chronic metabolic bone disorder characterized by reduced bone mass and deteri-oration of bone microarchitecture, primarily affecting the elderly population, especially women. This condition leads to an increased risk of fractures, contributing to higher rates of disability and mortality among affected individuals. In recent years, research on the integration of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis has gained considerable attention and has made significant progress. This integrated approach holds promise as an essential strategy for future osteoporosis management, offering patients a broader range of treatment options and potentially enhancing their quality of life. However, further research is needed to validate the long-term effectiveness and safety of the combined Chinese and Western medicine treatment, providing better guidance for clinical practice. This paper aims to review the latest advancements in the field of integrated Chinese and Western medicine treatment for osteo-porosis.
