Özet
We aimed to show the effect of osteoporosis on sleep quality in 59 postmenopausal women. The participants' bone-mineral density levels were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). According to their DEXA results, participants were divided into two groups as osteoporotics and controls. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to evaluate sleep quality. Fourteen osteoporotic women (43.8%) and four controls (14.8%) were "poor" sleepers (p < 0.05). Postmenopausal women with osteoporosis scored greater on the "sleep latency" and "sleep duration" components of PSQI than controls. According to the findings of our study, osteoporosis is a risk factor for poor sleep quality in postmenopausal women.
