Context: One of the important challenges in the management of osteoporosis is to identify women who are at high risk of developing osteoporosis and fragility fractures. Objective: Our objective was to evaluate whether assessment of bone metabolism at multiple occasions can identify women with the highest risk for bone loss. Design: The Malmo Osteoporosis Prospective Risk Assessment study is an ongoing longitudinal study. Participants have been evaluated at baseline and after 1, 3, and 5 yr. Setting: We conducted a population-based study. Participants: Participants included 1044 women, all 75 yr old at baseline. Main Outcome Measures: Seven bone turnover markers were assessed at baseline and at 1, 3, and 5 yr (n = 573). The 5-yr change in areal bone mineral density (aBMD) was also determined. Results: Baseline markers correlated weakly to change in total body aBMD. The associations were more pronounced when the average of the baseline and 1-yr measurements was used (standardized regression coefficients -0.12 to -0.23, P < 0.01). Adding the 3-yr and 5-yr measurement further strengthened the correlation (regression coefficients up to -0.30, P < 0.001). Women with constantly high turnover lost significantly more bone at total body assessment (-2.6%) than women with intermediate (-1.6%) or low turnover (-0.2%, P for trend < 0.001). They also had a greater decrease in hip BMD (-8.3, -6.0, and -5.1%, respectively, P = 0.010). Results were similar also in the subgroup of women with osteopenia. Conclusions: Our results suggest that serial assessment of bone turnover improves the identification of women with the highest rate of bone loss and osteoporosis risk.
