Chronic inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and spondyloarthritis (SPA) has a negative impact on bone mass even in premenopausal women. Recently we evaluate BMD, sarcopenia and 3D-DXA parameters in RA patients. Aim: to evaluate BMD and cortical and trabecular compartment by proximal femur 3D-DXA analysis in SLE and SPA patients. Patient: Adults SLE (n=13) and SPA (n=15) were included and compared to healthy subjects (n=28) as control group (CG) matched by age, sex and BMI. BMD (g/cm2) was measured by DXA (Hologic Discovery Wi) on right femoral neck (FN) and total hip (TH). The 3D-DXA analysis was performed with 3D-Shaper software (v2.9, Galgo Medical, Spain). The cortical BMD (sDens - mg/cm2) and trabecular volumetric BMD (trab vBMD - mg/cm3) were consider. Data were expressed as mean±SD and p
