Core Tip Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is associated with impaired bone quality and an increased risk of fractures. However, assessment based solely on bone density has important limitations. In this retrospective study, patients with T2DM and osteoporosis (OP) exhibited higher serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and β-C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen levels than those without OP, suggesting altered bone metabolism. Notably, PTH concentrations in the OP group were more than double those in the non-OP group and were accompanied by evidence of reduced skeletal responsiveness to PTH. Multivariate analysis further identified older age and elevated PTH levels as independent risk factors for OP comorbidity. These findings suggest that routine assessment of PTH and β-C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen, combined with clinical evaluation, may facilitate the earlier identification of high-risk T2DM patients, thereby enabling early intervention before the occurrence of fragility fractures.
