We depict a fragility bone state in two primitive osteoporosis populations using 3D high-resolution peripheral in vivo QCT(HR-pOCT). Postmenopausal women (C, controls, n = 54: WF, wrist. n = 50: HF hip, n = 62 recent fractured patients) were analyzed for lumbar and hip DXA areal BMD (aBMD), cancellous and cortical volumetric BMD (vBMD), and microstructural and geometric parameters on tibia and radius by HR-pQCT. Principal component analysis (PCA) allowed extracting factors that best represent bone variables. Comparison between (groups was Made by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Two factors (>80%) of the entire variability) are extracted by PCA: at the radius, the first is a combination of trabecular parameters and the second of cortical parameters. At the tibia, we found the reverse. Femoral neck aBMD is decreased in WF (8.6%) and in HF (18%) groups (no lumbar difference). WF showed a similar to 20% reduction in radius trabecular vBMD and number. Radius cortical vBMD and thickness decrease by 6% and 14%, respectively. At the tibia. only the cortical compartment is affected, with similar to 20% reduction in bone area, thickness, and section modulus and 6% reduction in vBMD. HF showed same radius trabecular alterations than WF but radius cortical parameters are more severely, affected than WF with reduced bone area (25%), thickness (28.5%). and vBMD (11%). At the tibia, trabecular vBMD and number decrease by 26% and 17.5%, respectively. Tibia cortical hone area, thickness, and section Modulus showed a >30% decrease, whereas vBMD reduction reached 13%. Geometry parameters at the tibia displayed the greatest differences between healthy and fractured patients and between Wrist and hip fractures.
