Abstract:[Objective] To explore the relationship between serum markers, such as C-telopeptide (CTX) of type I collagen, plasmino- gen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) and interleukin 33 (IL-33) , and bone mineral density (BMD) or osteocalcin (BGP) in femoral head necrosis. [Methods] From January 2017 to January 2020, 95 patients with femoral head necrosis admitted to our hospital were enrolled as the necro- sis group, while 80 healthy subjects were selected as the normal group. The serum CTX, PAI-1, IL-33 and BGP, as well as BMD were de- tected, furthermore, the correlation between serum markers and BMD or BGP was analyzed. [Results] The necrosis group had significantly higher levels of serum BGP, CTX, PAI-1 and IL-33, as well as BMD than the normal group (P<0.05) . The serum CTX, PAI-1 and IL-33 were significantly positively correlated with BMD (P<0.05) . In addition, the serum CTX, PAI-1 and IL-33 were significantly positively cor- related with BGP (P<0.05) . [Conclusion] The serum expressions of CTX, PAI-1 and IL-33 in femoral head necrosis are closely related to BMD and BGP.
