dc.description.abstractObjective: Osteoporosis can be followed secondary to hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. In this study, we evaluated the awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in patients with hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.Materials and Methods: A total of 148 patients and 148 volunteers, 80 of whom were diagnosed with hypothyroidism and 68 with hyperthyroidism, were included in the study. Demographic information and socioeconomic status of all patients and volunteers were recorded. Participants were evaluated using the osteoporosis knowledge test and osteoporosis awareness scale. For the osteoporosis knowledge questionnaire, correct answers of 13 and above were considered sufficient and answers below 13 were considered insufficient. First, the patient and volunteer groups were compared, and then the patient group was divided into two groups as hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. Questionnaires measuring osteoporosis awareness and osteoporosis knowledge levels of hypothyroid and hyperthyroid patients were compared.Results: There was no difference between the patient and control groups in terms of age, gender, education level, and income level (p>0.05). Both the patient and control groups had osteoporosis awareness, but there was no significant difference between the groups (p>0.05). The awareness of osteoporosis was high in the hypothyroid-hyperthyroid patient and control groups. When the osteoporosis knowledge levels of the patient and control groups were compared, a statistically significant difference was found in favor of the control group (p<0.05). No statistically significant difference was found regarding the osteoporosis awareness levels of hyperthyroid and hypothyroid patients (p>0.05). The osteoporosis knowledge level was low in patients with hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.Conclusion: Osteoporosis awareness was high in the hypothyroid and hyperthyroid patient and control groups. Considering the osteoporosis knowledge levels of the patient and control groups, although the knowledge level was insufficient in both groups, the decrease in the patient group was significant.
