Physical training preserves bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with forearm fractures and low bone mineral density 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Summary One hundred and twelve postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density (BMD) and forearm fractures were randomized to physical
training or control group. After one year the total hip BMD was significantly higher in the women in the physical training
group. The results indicate a positive effect of physical training on BMD in postmenopausal women with low BMD.
Introduction The fivefold increase in hip fracture incidence since 1950 in Sweden may partially be due to an increasingly sedentary lifestyle.
Our hypothesis was that physical training can prevent bone loss in postmenopausal women.
Methods One hundred and twelve postmenopausal women 45 to 65 years with forearm fractures and T-scores from −1.0 to −3.0 were randomized
to either a physical training or control group. Training included three fast 30-minute walks and two sessions of one-hour
training per week. Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured in the hip and the lumbar spine at baseline and after one year.
Results A per protocol analysis was performed, including 48 subjects in the training group and 44 subjects in the control group. The
total hip BMD increased in the training group +0.005 g/cm2 (±0.018), +0.58%, while it decreased −0.003 g/cm2 (±0.019), −0.36%,
(p = 0.041) in the control group. No significant effects of physical training were seen in the lumbar spine. A sensitivity intention
to treat analysis, including all randomized subjects, showed no significant effect of physical training on BMD at any site.
Conclusions The results indicate a small but positive effect of physical exercise on hip BMD in postmenopausal women with low BMD. 相似文献

Summary Loss of bone mineral density occurs after discontinuation of teriparatide, if no subsequent treatment is given. Sequential
raloxifene prevented rapid bone loss at lumbar spine and further increased bone mineral density (BMD) at femoral neck, whether
raloxifene was started immediately or after a one-year delay following teriparatide treatment.
Introduction We compared the sequential effects of raloxifene treatment with a placebo on teriparatide-induced increases in bone mineral
density (BMD). A year of open-label raloxifene extended the study to assess the response with and without delay after discontinuation
of teriparatide.
Methods Following a year of open-label teriparatide 20 μg/day treatment, postmenopausal women with osteoporosis were randomly assigned
to raloxifene 60 mg/day (n = 157) or a placebo (n = 172) for year 2, followed by a year of open-label raloxifene. BMD was
measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry.
Results The raloxifene and placebo groups showed a decrease in lumbar spine (LS) BMD in year 2 for raloxifene and placebo groups (−1.0 ± 0.3%,
P = 0.004; and −4.0 ± 0.3%, P < 0.001, respectively); the decrease was less with raloxifene (P < 0.001). Open-label raloxifene
treatment reversed the LS BMD decrease with a placebo, resulting in similar decreases 2 years after randomization (−2.6 ± 0.4%
(raloxifene-raloxifene) and −2.7 ± 0.4% (placebo-placebo). At study end, LS and femoral neck (FN) BMD were higher than pre-teriparatide
levels, with no significant differences between the raloxifene-raloxifene and placebo-raloxifene groups, respectively (LS:
6.1 ± 0.5% vs. 5.1 ± 0.5%; FN: 3.4 ± 0.6% vs. 3.0 ± 0.5%).
Conclusion Sequential raloxifene prevented rapid bone loss at the LS and increased FN BMD whether raloxifene was started immediately
or after a one-year delay following teriparatide treatment.

To evaluate bone biochemical markers as predictors of the efficacy of a hormone replacement therapy (HRT), we studied the
bone changes induced by the cessation and return of ovarian function in 28 patients treated for 6 months with a GnRH agonist.
This model reproduced the effects observed in postmenopausal women with high bone turnover treated with HRT. At the end of
the treatment, Z scores were 1.8 ± 0.3 for Crosslaps (CTx) and deoxypyridinoline (D-Pyr), and 1.1 ± 0.2 for bone alkaline
phosphatase (B-ALP) and osteocalcin (OC). This indicated an imbalance in bone remodeling with a high bone resorption. Bone
mineral density (BMD) fell by 4.2 ± 2.5%. The changes in BMD between the 6th and 12th months were 0.34 ± 2.24 and −1.73 ±
3.25% at the lumbar spine and the femoral neck, respectively. Biochemical markers except urinary calcium and hydroxyproline
measured at 6 months were positively correlated with the BMD changes at the lumbar spine. After the resumption of menstruation,
13 of 28 women displayed positive spine BMD changes between the 6th and 12th months; in this group, bone biochemical markers
measured at 6 months were significantly higher (P= 0.02). Stepwise regression analysis showed that the association of B-ALP and D-Pyr measured at 6 months explained 40% of
BMD variance and the association of B-ALP, PTH, and estradiol 56%. We conclude that measuring individual biochemical bone
markers can help to predict the bone effect of an increase in the circulating estradiol in women with ovarian deficiency.

Previous studies have demonstrated reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and biochemical changes of excessive bone resorption
in some patients with idiopathic hypercalciuria (IH). Consequently, bisphosphonates have been successfully employed in research
animals and adults with IH and reduced BMD. We evaluated the effect of treatment with bisphosphonates in seven patients ages
10–16 years with persistent IH and reduced BMD. In five children, preceding traditional therapy failed. All children received
oral alendronate and one also IV Zoledronic acid for 6–18 (median 9.0, mean 10.7) months. With treatment, BMD Z scores in
the lumbar spine improved from −2.0 ± 0.3 to −0.8 ± 0.8 (p = 0.002) and in the femoral neck from −1.8 ± 0.4 to −0.7 ± 0.9 (p = 0.01); urine N-telopeptides/creatinine decreased from 372 ± 289 to 72 ± 39 nmol/mmol (p = 0.05) and calcium/creatinine from 0.29 ± 0.12 to 0.13 ± 0.06 mg/mg (p = 0.009). Height Z scores, normal at baseline in all, remained unaffected, and no new stones or fractures were documented
throughout the treatment period. Serum creatinine, electrolytes, calcium, phosphorus and parathyroid hormone remained normal
as well. In summary, in children with IH and decreased BMD, treatment with bisphosphonates normalized urine calcium excretion,
eliminated urinary symptoms, and significantly improved reduced BMD. These short-term beneficial effects indicate the need
for larger prospective studies on the potential of bisphosphonates to serve as a new tool in treating children with IH and
reduced BMD. 相似文献

Introduction A randomized, double-blind, prospective, 24-week clinical trial was performed to evaluate the effects of a combinative agent, Maxmarvil, of calcitriol (0.5 μg) and alendronate (5 mg) on bone metabolism in postmenopausal women.Methods A total of 217 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis were enrolled; 199 patients were randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups (Maxmarvil group or alfacalcidol group). None of the patients were vitamin-D-deficient, as assessed by serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), nor had they received any drugs affecting bone metabolism before enrollment. Bone mineral densities (BMD) of L1–L4 and the femur were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the initial assessment and after 6 months of treatment. Serum biochemical assays, including serum calcium, 24-h urinary calcium excretion, and bone turnover markers (both bone-specific alkaline phosphatase [bsALP] and urine N-telopeptide [NTx]), were performed at the baseline and after 3 and 6 months of treatment.Results In the Maxmarvil group, the BMD of the lumbar spine increased up to 2.42±0.5% from the baseline after 6 months (p<0.05). On the other hand, the change in BMD in the alfacalcidol group was 0.28±0.5% after 6 months. There was no significant difference in femoral BMD between the two groups. The levels of bsALP and NTx were significantly lower in the Maxmarvil group than in the alfacalcidol group (−22.04±3.9% vs. −11.42±2.8% [p<0.05] and −25.46±5.2% vs. 1.24±6.2% [p<0.001], respectively). Interestingly, there was a significantly smaller amount of 24-h urinary calcium in the Maxmarvil group (p<0.05).Conclusions Our study demonstrates that a combination of calcitriol and alendronate is quite effective in preventing bone loss, with the advantage of lesser hypercalciuric effect of calcitriol in the postmenopausal osteoporotic women. 相似文献

Summary This 6-month randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial shows that risedronate is well tolerated and effective in improving
lumbar spine BMD and reducing loss of BMD at the hips in patients receiving high-dose prednisolone.
Introduction Bisphosphonates have proven benefits in patients receiving chronic low-dose glucocorticoids. However, whether they are effective
in preventing bone mineral density (BMD) loss during periods of high-dose glucocorticoid treatment is unclear. The objective
of this paper is to study the efficacy of risedronate in preventing bone mineral density (BMD) loss in users of high-dose
glucocorticoids.
Methods Adult patients with medical diseases treated with high-dose prednisolone (>0.5 mg/kg/day) were randomized to receive risedronate
(5 mg/day) or placebo for 6 months in a double-blind manner, along with elemental calcium (1,000 mg/day). Changes in BMD were
studied.
Results One hundred and twenty patients were recruited (82 women, age 42.8 ± 14.3 years, 63% corticosteroid-naive, 30% women postmenopausal)
and 103 completed the study. Baseline clinical characteristics and BMD were similar in the risedronate and placebo groups.
At 6 months, a significant gain in spinal BMD was observed in the risedronate group (+0.7 ± 0.3%; p = 0.03) but a drop was
detected in the placebo group (−0.7 ± 0.4%; p = 0.12). After adjustment for baseline BMD, age, gender, body mass index and cumulative prednisolone dosages, the inter-group
difference in spinal BMD remained significant (1.4%; p = 0.006). Both groups had a significant drop in hip BMD, but the magnitude was greater in the placebo arm (−0.8 ± 0.4% in
risedronate versus −1.3 ± 0.5% the in placebo). No new fractures developed. Subgroup analysis of corticosteroid-naive patients
yielded similar results. Upper gastrointestinal adverse events were numerically more frequent in the risedronate group.
Conclusions Risedronate improves spinal BMD in users of high-dose glucocorticoids. 相似文献

Summary This Canadian study of bone health showed that HIV+ women were more likely to have had fragility fractures (OR 1.7) but had
BMD values that were not different than women from a national population-based cohort.
Introduction Given that 17.5 million women globally are HIV-infected and living longer on anti-retroviral therapy (ART+), it is essential
to determine whether they are at risk for osteoporosis as is currently assumed.
Methods Assessment of osteoporosis risk factors and lifetime low-trauma (fragility) fracture history used a common interviewer-administered
questionnaire and phantom-adjusted bone mineral density (BMD). This study compared HIV+ Canadian women with age- and region-matched
control women (1:3) from a national population-based study of osteoporosis.
Results One hundred and thirty-eight HIV+ women (100 ART+, 38 ART-) were compared with 402 controls. There were no differences in
age (37.7 vs. 38.0 years), BMI (25.0 vs. 26.2), family history of osteoporosis, exercise history, alcohol or calcium intakes,
age at menarche, oral contraceptive use or parity. HIV+ cases included more Aboriginal and Black women (12.5% and 16.2 vs.
2% and 1%, respectively), smoked and used injection drugs (53%) more, were more often treated with glucocorticoids, had oligomenorrhea,
and reported 10-kg weight cycling. Significantly more HIV+ women reported lifetime fragility fractures (26.1% vs. 17.3; OR
1.7, 95% CI 1.1, 2.6). HIV+ and control women did not differ in BMD: spine 1.0 ± 0.12 vs.1.0 ± 0.14 g/cm2 (diff. 0.0, 95% CI −0.27, 0.27) or total femur 0.91 ± 0.15 vs. 0.93 ± 0.12 g/cm2 (diff 0.02, 95% CI +0.005, −0.045).
Conclusion HIV+ women reported significantly more past osteoporotic fractures than population-based controls despite normal BMD. Research
is needed to assess bone microarchitecture and develop a reliable fracture risk assessment tool for HIV+ women. 相似文献

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) of bone and new markers of bone remodeling have been poorly investigated in mild primary hyperparathyroidism
(PHPT). In this study 26 patients (20 females and 6 males) were evaluated. BUA and SOS were measured by QUS at the heel. Markers
of bone remodeling assessed were bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), osteocalcin (OC), procollagen type I N- and C-terminal propeptides
(PINP et PICP), and procollagen type I C-terminal telopeptide in blood and urine (ICTP and CTX). Bone mineral density (BMD)
was measured at the lumbar spine (LS), femoral neck (FN), and Ward's triangle (WT). The control group comprised 35 sex- and
age-matched subjects. The statistically significant variables between the two groups were (P < 0.05) BUA, BMDLS, BMDFN, BMDWT, BAP, and OC. Corresponding z-scores were −0.55 ± 0.75, −0.66 ± 0.77, −0.66 ± 0.71, −0.67 ± 0.52, 1.87 ± 3.87, and 1.93 ±
3.53, respectively. Although PICP and PINP levels were higher in PHPT patients as compared with controls, the difference was
not significant. Several markers of bone turnover were moderately correlated with both QUS (r =−0.39 to −0.55) and BMD (r
=−0.48 to 0.63). In conclusion QUS seems to be a relevant tool in the assessment of bone status for patients with mild PHPT.

Universally safe and effective methods of mechanically loading the skeleton to improve strength and prevent fracture have
yet to be identified. To be osteogenic, mechanical strains must either be of substantial magnitude or applied at high frequency
(>15 Hz). High-magnitude loads place frail bones at risk of fracture. Active loading can rarely be achieved at a frequency
faster than 2–3 Hz. A 12-month, uncontrolled, prospective, pilot intervention trial was conducted with five premenopausal
Caucasian women with low bone mass. Subjects stood on a vibrating platform (Optimass model 1000 Mechanical Strain Device)
and received a 0.2-g stimulus at 30 Hz, 2 × 10 min/day, for 12 months. Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured at the whole
body, lumbar spine, proximal femora (PF), and distal radius at baseline and 6 and 12 months by DXA (Hologic QDR-1000/W). Blood
and urine were collected at baseline and 3, 6, 9 and 12 months for markers of bone resorption and formation. A mean percent
BMD increase of 2.03% ± 0.33% (P < 0.02) was detected at the non-dominant PF after 12 months. Trends for increases were observed at all other sites with the
exception of the dominant PF. No uniform trends were observed in bone resorption and formation markers. One subject, on Fosamax,
increased BMD by 6% at the lumbar spine and 4.4% at the distal radius. Preliminary findings provide evidence of a possible
positive response of regions of low bone mass to brief daily bouts of in-home, passive, noninvasive, low-strain, high-frequency,
mechanical loading. 相似文献

Bone loss accompanies a diet-induced weight loss and could be prevented with a combination of exercises. This study was conducted
to examine the effects of additional resistance training during diet-induced weight loss on whole-body and selected regional
bone mineral density (BMD). The participants of a 14-week weight-loss study were 42 overweight premenopausal Japanese women
who were randomly placed in either a diet-only group (D; n = 21) or a diet plus resistance training group (DR; n = 21). Whole-body BMD and body composition, lumbar spine BMD, and 1/3 radial BMD were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
before and after the intervention. Bone formation and resorption markers were also measured. Thirty-five participants (83%)
completed the study. Individuals in groups D (n = 17) and DR (n = 18) lost 6.2 ± 3.5 kg and 8.6 ± 3.6 kg body weight, respectively. Reductions in percentage fat mass and fat mass in group
DR were significantly greater than in group D; lean mass decreased significantly in both groups. The effect of time on whole-body
BMD was significant (−0.3%); however, whole-body bone mineral content, lumbar spine BMD, and 1/3 radial BMD remained unchanged.
There were no significant timeby-group interactions in the whole-body and regional BMD and bone markers. These results suggest
that additional resistance training during weight loss has no effect on BMD in overweight premenopausal Japanese women. Further
long-term studies with large numbers of subjects are needed. 相似文献

Bone density change and biochemical indices of skeletal turnover 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

Although biochemical markers of skeletal turnover cannot replace bone density scanning for the diagnosis of osteoporosis,
it is thought that they may help add to prediction of fracture risk and help determine adequacy of osteoporosis therapy. Nevertheless,
whether biochemical markers in the serum or urine can predict individual rates of bone loss in the spine or hip region is
unknown. We studied a heterogeneous group of women (n=81) who were premenopausal, untreated postmenopausal, and estrogentreated
postmenopausal with baseline determination of body mass index (BMI), calcium intake, biochemical measurements, and serial
bone densitometry over 3 years. Serum assays included bone Gla protein (BGP), total and bonespecific specific included bone
Gla protein (BGP), total and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (AP, BSAP), carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen
(PICP), carboxyterminal telopeptide of type I collagen (ICTP) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP). Urine assays
included hydroxyproline (OHP), calcium, total pyridinoline, and total deoxypyridinoline. Individual biochemical markers and
calcium intake were modestly correlated with bone density changes but were inconsistent regarding the spine versus the hip.
All of the formation variables were significantly correlated to spine density change (r=−0.24 to −0.49) whereas the only resorption
variable that correlated was urine OHp/Cr (r=−0.31). The only formation variable that correlated with hip density change was
serum PICP whereas all of the resorption variables except serum TRAP were correlated (r=−0.23 to −0.35). “High turnover” individuals
were defined as those with levels of biochemical variables at least 1 SD above the mean young normal for each variable. Higher
bone loss rates were seen in this group for several of the turnover markers compared with bone loss rates in all other individuals.
However, the sensitivity of this “high turnover” status for identifying high bone losers did not exceed 60% for any of the
variables. In untreated postmenopausal women, a model using urine OHp, serum ICTP, serum BSAP, and calcium intake was able
to predict 42% of the variance of change in BMD of the lumbar spine. A model using BMI, serum ICTP, and serum BGP could predict
32% of the variance of change in BMD of the femoral neck. No combination of markers could predict variance in bone density
change at either site in estrogenized women (premenopausal and estrogen-treated postmenopausal). We conclude that measuring
individual serum and urine markers of bone turnover cannot accurately predict bone loss rates in the spine and hip; however,
combinations of demographic and biochemical variables could predict some of the variance in untreated postmenopausal women.
Biochemical markers cannot replace serial bone densitometry for accurate determination of change in bone mass at the most
clinically relevant sites. 相似文献

We investigated the association of upper arm circumference at muscle flexion with lumbar spine (L2–L4) bone mineral density
(BMD) in 252 postmenopausal Japanese women (mean age, 62.0 ± 7.6 years; range, 43–78 years) with right-side dominance. Age,
age at menopause, years since menopause (YSM), weight, and height were recorded. Dominant upper arm circumference (cm) was
measured at muscle flexion. Lumbar spine BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Correlations between
BMD and variables were determined using Pearson's correlation coefficient. Significant predictors of the lumbar spine BMD
were determined using stepwise multiple regression analysis. Upper arm circumference, weight, and height were positively correlated
with BMD (r = 0.397, 0.343, and 0.323, respectively), whereas YSM and age were inversely correlated with BMD (r = −0.415 and −0.392, respectively). On stepwise multiple regression analysis, YSM, upper arm circumference, and weight were
significant predictors of BMD (R
2 = 0.322, P < 0.0001). Predicted value of the lumbar spine BMD was calculated by the following formula: Predicted BMD = 0.249 − 0.0078
(YSM) + 0.016 (upper arm circumference) + 0.0046 (weight). Dominant upper arm circumference at muscle flexion in combination
with YSM and weight is a useful predictor of lumbar spine BMD.

We conducted a cross-sectional study of the effects of soybean protein intake on bone mineral density and biochemical markers
in 85 postmenopausal Japanese women. Nutrients in the diet of postmenopausal Japanese women visiting the osteoporosis unit,
including subjects with normal lumbar spine bone mineral density (L2–4 BMD), were investigated by questionnaire, and the calculated
daily energy, protein, soy protein and calcium intake were obtained. L2–4 BMD was measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry,
and assays done of serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and serum intact osteocalcin (IOC) as bone formation markers and urinary
pyridinoline (UPYR) and urinary deoxypyridinoline (UDPYR) as bone resorption markers. Soy protein intake was significantly
associated with the Z-score for L2–4 BMD (r= 0.23, p = 0.038) and UDPYR (r =−0.23, p = 0.034). Stepwise multiple regression analyses showed that soy protein intake is significantly associated with the Z-score for L2–4 BMD (β= 0.225, p = 0.04) and UDPYR (β=−0.08, p = 0.03) among four nutritional factors. These results suggest that high soy protein intake is associated with a higher bone
mineral density and a lower level of bone resorption, but further studies are needed to confirm the causal dynamic mechanisms.

Osteoporosis represents an important cause of morbidity in patients with β-thalassemia major, and its etiology is multifactorial.
Thus, the aim of this study was to characterize the possible role of the osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of the
NF-κB ligand (RANKL) system in thalassemia-related bone loss. Serum concentrations of OPG, soluble RANKL (s-RANKL), markers
of bone turnover, and lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) were measured in random samples of males (n = 29; mean age ± SEM, 24.26 ± 1.29 years; range, 13–41 years) and females (n = 31; age, 24.59 ± 0.95 years; range, 12–34 years) with β-thalassemia major and in 30 healthy age-, height-, and weight-matched
subjects. Thalassemic patients had significantly lower levels of OPG compared with controls (2.54 ± 0.12 vs. 3.25 ± 0.122,
respectively; P < 0.05) and higher, albeit not statistically significantly, serum levels of s-RANKL (0.350 ± 0.03 vs. 0.295 ± 0.046, respectively;
P < 0.05). s-RANKL correlated negatively with age (r = −0.3, P < 0.05), and OPG correlated positively with the duration of the interval between the onset of transfusions and chelation
therapy (r = 0.52, P < 0.001). Regarding markers of bone metabolism, plasma values of osteocalcin correlated positively with s-RANKL (r = 0.40, P < 0.05) and negatively with OPG/s-RANKL ratio (r = −0.55, P < 0.01). In multiple regression analysis only cross-linked N-teleopeptide of type I collagen (NTX) significantly accounted
for BMD. Although the OPG/RANKL system may have some clinical usefulness as a marker of bone turnover in β-thalassemia, conventional
markers of bone turnover more accurately represent changes in the BMD of these patients. 相似文献

Summary Nitrates may have beneficial effects on bone. To determine if nitrates were associated with increased bone mineral density
(BMD), we conducted a secondary analysis using data from subjects in a prospective study. Subjects reporting nitrate use had
increased BMD compared with non-users, confirming that nitrates have positive BMD effects in women and men.
Introduction Prior studies suggest positive associations between nitrates and bone.
Methods We used linear regression models, stratified by gender and adjusted for age, weight, and baseline differences, to determine
the association between daily nitrate use and BMD among subjects participating in the Canadian Multicentre Osteoporosis Study.
All results are reported as annualised percent change in BMD at the hip and spine among nitrate users compared to non-users.
Results We included 1,419 men (71 reported daily nitrate use) and 2,587 women (97 reported daily nitrate use). Male non-users had
decreased hip BMD (−1.3%; 95% confidence interval [95%CI] = −1.6 to −1.1) and increased spine BMD (2.8%; 95%CI = 2.5 to 3.1).
Male nitrate users had increased hip BMD (1.4%; 95%CI = 0.1 to 2.8) and spine BMD (4.5%; 95%CI = 3.2 to 5.7). Among women,
non-users had decreased hip BMD (−1.9; 95%CI = −2.1 to −1.7) and increased spine BMD (2.1%; 95%CI = 1.9 to 2.4) whilst users
had an increase in hip BMD (2.0%; 95%CI = 1.2 to 2.8) and spine BMD (4.1%; 95%CI = 3.4 to 4.9).

Summary When measured by dual-photon absorptiometry (DPA), the adjusted annual rate of change in bone mineral density (BMD) of the
lumbar spine was 0.11±0.51 (SE) % in 44 healthy postmenopausal women with radiographic abnormalities in the scan field and
−0.97±0.26% in 249 women with normal lateral lumbar radiographs (p=0.046). Rates of loss of BMD from the radius were similar
in the 2 groups. Spurious rates of loss of spine BMD are likely to be found in subjects with calcification of the aorta, osteophytes
or other abnormalities in the spine scan field. This should be kept in mind when serial spine scans are being considered in
these subjects. 相似文献

Summary The association between baseline levels of eleven bone turnover markers and 5-year rate of bone density change was prospectively
studied in a population-based sample of 601 75-year-old women. Several bone formation and resorption markers as well as urinary
osteocalcin were modestly correlated to rate of bone density change.
Introduction Prediction of bone loss by bone turnover markers (BTMs) has been investigated with conflicting results. There is limited information
in the elderly.
Methods Eleven bone turnover markers were analyzed in 75-year old women in the OPRA study (n = 601) and compared to the 5-year change
of areal bone mineral density (aBMD) in seven skeletal regions.
Results Annual aBMD change varied between +0.4% (spine) and −2.0% (femoral neck). Significant associations (p < 0.01) were found for
four different serum osteocalcins (S-OCs) (standardized regression coefficient −0.20 to −0.22), urinary deoxypyridinoline
(−0.19), serum TRACP5b (−0.19), serum CTX-I (−0.21), two of the three urinary osteocalcins (U-OCs) (−0.16) and aBMD change
of the leg region (derived from the total body measurement). After adjustment for baseline aBMD, associations were found for
all S-OCs (−0.11 to −0.16), two of the three U-OCs (−0.14 to −0.16) and aBMD change at the total hip, and for three of the
four S-OCs (−0.14 to −0.15), S-TRACP5b (−0.11), two of the three U-OCs (−0.14 to −0.15) and aBMD change at the femoral neck.
There were no significant results concerning aBMD change at the spine.
Conclusion This study indicates that BTMs are correlated with aBMD loss in some skeletal regions in elderly women. 相似文献

Classification of osteoporosis in the elderly is dependent on site-specific analysis 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Vertebral osteoporosis accounts for over 500,000 spinal fractures annually, the majority of which occur in older women. Despite
these statistics, data regarding the rate of spinal bone loss in this population are conflicting. Moreover, the site of skeletal
evaluation may significantly alter classification of osteoporosis in this age group. To examine trabecular-rich spinal bone
loss with a measurement less affected by age-related artifacts that the AP spine, we measured lateral lumbar spine bone density
(BMD) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in 120 healthy, ambulatory, community-dwelling women 65 years of age and older
(mean 70±5 years, range 65–88). We also examined cortical-rich sites in the forearm and total body along with AP spine and
femoral BMD to assess the impact of site specificity using the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of osteoporosis.
Significant losses in BMD were observed at the lateral spine (−1.1%/year,P<0.01), forearm (−0.77%/year,P≤0.01), total hip (−0.75%/year,P≤0.01), femoral neck (−0.70%/year,P≤0.05), and trochanter (−0.78%/year,P≤0.01), but not the AP spine. Using the WHO criteria, lateral spine BMD determinations classified 66% of women with osteoporosis
in contrast to 29% using the AP projection. Osteoporosis was diagnosed in 55% of women using measurements of the femoral neck,
43% using the total radius, and 19% using the total body. We conclude that elderly women lose bone at trabecular-and cortical-rich
sites (lateral spine and total radius, respectively) in addition to sustaining significant age-related bone loss at mixed
cortical/trabecular sites such as the hip. Classification of osteoporosis in this age group more than doubles using lateral
versus AP spinal projections, supporting the necessity of developing more uniform agreement on site-specific analyses. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to examine whether the presence of apolipoprotein E ε4 (ApoE ε4) is associated with a lower bone
mineral density (BMD), lower quantitative ultrasound (QUS) measurements, higher bone turnover and fracture risk, and whether
these relations are modified by gender and age. A total of 1406 elderly men and women (≥65 years) of the Longitudinal Aging
Study Amsterdam (LASA) participated in this study. In all participants, QUS measurements were assessed, as well as serum osteocalcin
(OC) and urine deoxypyridinolin (DPD/Cr urine). Follow-up of fractures was done each three months. In a subsample (n = 604), total body bone mineral content (BMC) and BMD of the hip and lumbar spine were measured. In addition, prevalent vertebral
deformities were identified on radiographs. In women, the presence of ApoE ε4 was associated with significantly lower femoral
neck BMD (g/cm2; mean ± SEM; ε4+, 0.64 ± 0.01 vs. ε4−, 0.67 ± 0.01; p= 0.04), lower trochanter BMD (g/cm2; mean ± SEM; ε4+, 0.58 ± 0.01 vs. ε4–, 0.61 ± 0.01; p= 0.01) and lower total body BMC (g; mean ± SEM; ε4+, 1787 ± 40.0 vs. ε4–, 1863 ± 23.8; p= 0.04). Women with ApoE ε4 also had a higher risk of severe vertebral deformities (OR=2.78; 95%CI: 1.21–6.34). In men, the
associations between ApoE status and both hip BMD and QUS depended on age. Only among the younger men (65–69 years) was the
presence of ApoE ε4 associated with lower BMD values. Bone markers and fractures were not associated with ApoE ε4 in either
women, or men. In conclusion, this large community-based study confirms the importance of ApoE ε4 as a possible genetic risk
factor related to BMD and vertebral deformities and demonstrates that its effect is gender related, and depends on age in
men only.
