In recent years, studies have shown that among elderly comorbidities, the incidence of comorbidity between osteoporosis and cognitive impairment is increasing year by year, which is manifested as a high incidence of falls and an increased risk of fractures, which leads to disability, increased mortality, and serious harm to health and quality of life of patients with comorbidities also bring a heavy economic burden to the family and society, which has become a more difficult problem in the management of chronic diseases in the community. This article reviews the progress of the relationship between osteoporosis and cognitive impairment. The focus is on the co-morbidity mechanism, clinical risk factors and clinical features of co-morbidity between osteoporosis and cognitive impairment.
