Bone mineral densty after treatment of non-Hodgkın's lymphoma in childhood

Bu çalışma non-Hodgkin lenfomalı çocuklarda kullanılan sitotoksik ilaçların kemik mineral dansitesi üzerindeki yan etkilerini araştırmak amacıyla planlandı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Kesitsel bir çalışma yürütüldü. Hasta grubu 31 (6’sı kız, 25’i erkek) tedavisi tamamlanmış non-Hodgkin lenfomalı olgudan oluşuyordu. Kontrol grubu 30 (11’i kız, 19’u erkek) sağlıklı çocuktan oluşturuldu. Her iki grubun da vertebra ve femur kemik mineral dansite ölçümleri kemik döngüsünü gösteren biyokimyasal parametreleri incelendi. Bulgular: Hasta ve kontrol grubundaki olguların yaşları, cinsiyetleri, vücut ağırlıkları, boyları, puberte evreleri, laboratuvar parametreleri istatistiksel olarak benzerdi. Hasta grubunun ortalama kemik mineral dansitesi (g/m2) kontrol grubundan düşük olmasına karşın fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı değildi (sırasıyla, BMD-V: 0,574±0,188 gr/cm2, BMD-F: 0,658±0,191 gr/cm2 vs BMD-V: 0,644±0,158 gr/cm2, BMD-F: 0,718±0,128 gr/cm2 , p>0.05). Sonuç: Bu çalışmada hasta ve kontrol grupları arasında istatistiksel anlamlı fark bulunmamasına karşın hasta grubundaki düşük kemik minarel dansitesi ölçümü non-Hodgkin lenfoma’lı çocukların kemik yoğunluğunun sitotoksik tedaviden etkilenebileceğini düşündürmektedir.

Çocukluk çağı non-Hodgkin lenfoma tedavisi sonrası kemik mineral dansitesi

To investigate the side effects of cytotoxic drugs on bone mineral density in children with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted. The patient group was composed of 31 (6 girls and 25 boys) non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma patients who had completed their therapy. The control group was composed of 30 (11 girls and 19 boys) healthy children. The bone mineral density of the vertebrae (BMD-V) and femur (BMD-F) and biochemical parameters of bone turnover were studied in both groups. Results: The patient and control groups were statistically similar in terms of age, sex, body weight, height, pubertal status, and laboratory parameters (p >0.05). Mean bone mineral density values (g/m2) in the patient group were lower than those in the control group, but not significantly so (respectively, BMD-V: 0.574±0.188 g/cm2, BMD-F: 0.658±0.191 g/cm2 vs. BMD-V: 0.644±0.158 g/cm2, BMD-F: 0.718±0.128 g/cm2, p>0.05). Conclusion: Although there was no significant difference between bone mineral density measurements of the patients and controls, the lower levels of bone density in patients could indicate that the bone mineral density of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma was affected by cytotoxic therapy. This should be taken into consideration in the follow-up of such children.
