Objective: To evaluate the relationship between prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and bone mineral density (BMD) values and disability in patients with osteo penia /oste oporo sis. Methods: Between January 2022 and January 2023, 106 postmenopausal women with osteopenia (n = 54) and osteoporosis (n = 52) were included in the study. Patients with a disease or medication causing secondary osteoporosis were excluded. Bone mineral density was evaluated using dual- energy X-ray absorptiometry. Nutritional status was measured using the PNI, which was calculated using total lymphocyte count and serum albumin levels. The Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI) was used to evaluate disability. Results: The mean age of the participants was 63.78 +/- 7.53 years. Prognostic nutritional index was positively correlated with total hip BMD values (r r = 0.217, P = .029) and total hip T-scores (r r = 0.207, P = .037) and negatively correlated with Fracture Assessment Tool Model (FRAX)-major fracture risk (r r = - 0.399, P < .001), FRAX-hip fracture risk (r r = - 0.300, P = .002), and HAQ-DI scores (r r =--0.474, - 0.474, P < .001). The mean PNI was lower in patients with a history of falls than in those without falls (P P < .001). The mean PNI was lower in patients with a history of osteoporotic fractures than in those without a fracture history (P P = .007). Multivariate linear regression analyses showed that PNI was the only independent variable for HAQ-DI (B B = - 0.040, P < .001) (R2 R2 = 0.17). Conclusion: Using PNI in clinical practice may be beneficial because of its association with BMD values and for predicting the independence of patients with osteo penia /oste oporo sis. If a disability is detected, a multidisciplinary approach should be considered, including rehabilitation and improvement of nutritional condition.
