The role of nonspecific immune inflammatory vascular response as a link in general pathogenetic mechanisms with change in the elastic properties of the arteries and phenomena of destructive bone changes has attracted great attention. We examined 104 patients (mean age 54.03 ± 9.56) who were divided into three groups: healthy women, with arterial hypertension (AH) and osteopenia and with AH and osteoporosis. The immune inflammatory response markers, endothelial dysfunction, and hormonal and miner
