Although only few postmenopausal women exhibit biochemical signs of hypovitaminosis D, vitamin D insufficiency has been shown to have adverse effects on bone metabolism and could be an important risk factor for osteoporosis and fracture. We determined serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), bone turnover markers, dietary calcium intake, and bone mineral density (BMD; measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry) in 161 consecutive ambulatory women, healthy except for osteoporosis, referred to a bone metabolic unit. The prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency [25(OH)D < or = 15 ng/ml] was 39.1%. 25(OH)D was lower in the osteoporotic subjects (15.7 +/- 5.3 ng/ml vs. 21.8 +/- 9.7 ng/ml; p < 0.001). After controlling for all other variables, lumbar spine (LS) BMD was found to be significantly associated with 25(OH)D, body mass index (BMI), and years after menopause (YSM) (R2 = 0.253; p < 0.001). For femoral neck (FN), significant independent predictors of BMD were YSM, BMI, iPTH, and 25(OH)D (R2 = 0.368; p < 0.001). The probability of meeting osteoporosis densitometric criteria was higher in the vitamin D insufficiency group (odds ratio [OR], 4.17, 1.83-9.48) after adjusting by YSM, BMI, iPTH, and dietary calcium intake. Our study shows that vitamin D insufficiency in an otherwise healthy postmenopausal population is a common risk factor for osteoporosis associated with increased bone remodeling and low bone mass.  相似文献

Lifestyle and dietary factors may influence the association of IL-6 polymorphisms with bone mass. In 1574 unrelated men and women from the Framingham Offspring Cohort, we observed significant hip BMD differences between IL-6 -174 genotypes only in older women, those without estrogens, and those with a poor calcium intake. Hence, association of IL-6 polymorphisms with BMD may be limited to discrete population subgroups. INTRODUCTION: Interleukin (IL)-6 plays a central role in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. Two functional variants in the IL-6 promoter have previously been associated with IL-6 expression, bone resorption levels, and BMD in late postmenopausal women, but results were conflicting in different populations. We hypothesized that the association between IL-6 promoter alleles and BMD may be affected by interactions with lifestyle and dietary factors known to influence bone turnover. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Among the Offspring Cohort of the Framingham Heart Study, 1574 unrelated men and women were genotyped for IL-6 -572 and -174 alleles. Interaction analyses with years since menopause, estrogen status, physical activity, smoking, dietary calcium, vitamin D, and alcohol intake were based on BMD measurements at the hip. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: In models that considered only the main effects of IL-6 polymorphisms, no significant association with BMD was observed in either gender. In contrast, p values (0.003-0.096 by ANOVA) suggestive of an interaction between IL-6 -174 genotypes and years since menopause, estrogen status, dietary calcium, and vitamin D intake were observed in women (n = 819). In turn, BMD was significantly lower with genotype -174 GG compared with CC, and intermediate with GC, in women who were more than 15 years past menopause and in those without estrogens or with calcium intake <940 mg/day. In estrogen-deficient women with poor calcium intake, BMD differences between genotypes CC and GG were 10.2% at femoral neck (p = 0.012), 12.0% at trochanter (p = 0.012), and 16.8% at Ward's area (p = 0.0014). In contrast, no such interactions were observed in men (n = 755). In conclusion, IL-6 genetic variation was prominently associated with hip BMD in late postmenopausal women, those without estrogen replacement therapy, and those with inadequate calcium intake. In contrast, IL-6 polymorphisms are unlikely to be significant determinants of bone mass in other women or men.  相似文献

Vitamin C supplement use and bone mineral density in postmenopausal women.   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Vitamin C is known to stimulate procollagen, enhance collagen synthesis, and stimulate alkaline phosphatase activity, a marker for osteoblast formation. Studies of dietary vitamin C intake and the relation with bone mineral density (BMD) have been conflicting, probably because of the well-known limitations of dietary nutrient assessment questionnaires. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the independent relation of daily vitamin C supplement use with BMD in a population-based sample of postmenopausal women. Subjects were 994 women from a community-based cohort of whom 277 women were regular vitamin C supplement users. Vitamin C supplement use was validated. Daily vitamin C supplement intake ranged from 100 to 5,000 mg; the mean daily dose was 745 mg. Average duration of use was 12.4 years; 85% had taken vitamin C supplements for more than 3 years. BMD levels were measured at the ultradistal and midshaft radii, hip, and lumbar spine. After adjusting for age, body mass index (BMI), and total calcium intake, vitamin C users had BMD levels approximately 3% higher at the midshaft radius, femoral neck, and total hip (p < 0.05). In a fully adjusted model, significant differences remained at the femoral neck (p < 0.02) and marginal significance was observed at the total hip (p < 0.06). Women taking both estrogen and vitamin C had significantly higher BMD levels at all sites. Among current estrogen users, those also taking vitamin C had higher BMD levels at all sites, with marginal significance achieved at the ultradistal radius (p < 0.07), femoral neck (p < 0.07), and total hip (p < 0.09). Women who took vitamin C plus calcium and estrogen had the highest BMD at the femoral neck (p = 0.001), total hip (p = 0.05), ultradistal radius (p = 0.02), and lumbar spine. Vitamin C supplement use appears to have a beneficial effect on levels of BMD, especially among postmenopausal women using concurrent estrogen therapy and calcium supplements.  相似文献

Retinol is involved in bone remodeling, and excessive intake has been linked to bone demineralization, yet its role in osteoporosis has received little evaluation. We studied the associations of retinol intake with bone mineral density (BMD) and bone maintenance in an ambulatory community-dwelling cohort of 570 women and 388 men, aged 55-92 years at baseline. Regression analyses, adjusted for standard osteoporosis covariates, showed an inverse U-shaped association of retinol, assessed by food-frequency questionnaires in 1988-1992, with baseline BMD, BMD measured 4 years later, and BMD change. Supplemental retinol use, reported by 50% of women and 39% of men, was an effect modifier in women; the associations of log retinol with BMD and BMD change were negative for supplement users and positive for nonusers at the hip, femoral neck, and spine. At the femoral neck, for every unit increase in log retinol intake, supplement users had 0.02 g/cm2 (p = 0.02) lower BMD and 0.23% (p = 0.05) greater annual bone loss, and nonusers had 0.02 g/cm2 (p = 0.04) greater BMD and 0.22% (p = 0.19) greater bone retention. However, among supplement users, retinol from dietary and supplement sources had similar associations with BMD, suggesting total intake is more important than source. In both sexes, increasing retinol became negatively associated with skeletal health at intakes not far beyond the recommended daily allowance (RDA), intakes reached predominately by supplement users. This study suggests there is a delicate balance between ensuring that the elderly consume sufficient vitamin A and simultaneously cautioning against excessive retinol supplementation.  相似文献

We investigated the associations of vitamin C, calcium and protein intakes with bone mass at the femoral neck and lumbar spine in postmenopausal Mexican American women. Bone mass was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and expressed as areal (BMD, g/cm2) and volumetric (bone mineral apparent density or BMAD, g/cm3) bone mineral density. Diet was assessed using a modified version of the National Cancer Institute Food Questionnaire, which was administered by trained bilingual interviewers familiar with Mexican dietary practices. Data gathered from 125 subjects were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis with age, body mass index (BMI), acculturation, years of estrogen use, physical activity, total energy intake, and the nutrient of interest as independent variables. Neither calcium nor calcium/protein ratio was associated with bone mineral density. There was evidence of a positive association between dietary vitamin C intake and femoral neck BMD (β=0.0002 g/cm2 per mg/day, SE=0.0001,p=0.07) and BMAD (β=0.0001 g/cm3 per mg/day, SE=0.00006,p<0.05), but vitamin C was not associated with lumbar spine bone mass. Further investigation of the role of vitamin C in skeletal health is warranted.  相似文献

Sex differences in peak adult bone mineral density   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Osteoporotic fractures are more common in women than men. Although accelerated bone loss following the menopause is recognized as of major importance, it is generally considered that a lower peak adult bone mass in females also contributes to their increased risk of osteoporosis in later life. To examine potential sex differences in peak adult bone mass we studied 29 pairs of dizygotic twins of differing within-pair sex in whom the female twin was premenopausal (mean age 37 years, range 21-55). Bone mineral density (BMD, g/cm2) was measured at the lumbar spine and femoral neck by dual-photon absorptiometry; 22 pairs also had BMD measured in the distal and 21 pairs in the ultradistal radius by single-photon absorptiometry. There was no significant difference in usual dietary calcium intake or tobacco consumption between the twin pairs. Consistent with accepted dogma, BMD at both radial sites were higher (+27%) in the males than their female cotwins. In contrast, there was no sex difference (male versus female) in BMD (mean +/- SEM) in the femoral neck (0.96 +/- 0.02 versus 0.97 +/- 0.03), and surprisingly, the females had a greater lumbar spine BMD than their male cotwins (1.19 +/- 0.03 versus 1.26 +/- 0.03, p less than 0.05). This difference was observed despite the fact that the males were taller (p = 0.033). If the femoral neck BMD values in the females were corrected for this difference in BMI, their values (0.99 +/- 0.03 g/cm2) were significantly higher than those in their male cotwin (p less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Indian women from low-income groups consume diets that have inadequate calcium coupled with too few calories, proteins and micronutrients. Hospital-based data suggest that these women have osteoporotic hip fractures at a much earlier age than Western women. Studies reporting bone parameters of the Indian population involving large sample sizes are not available. This study was therefore carried out with 289 women in the 30–60-year age group to estimate the prevalence of osteoporosis and measure the bone parameters by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Their mean (± SD) age was 41.0±8.60 years. Their mean (± SD) height, weight and body mass index (BMI) were 149.1±5.49 cm, 49.2±9.85 kg and 22.1±3.99, respectively. Dietary intake of calcium was estimated to be 270±57 mg/day. The prevalence of osteoporosis at the femoral neck was around 29%. Bone mineral density (BMD) and T scores at all the skeletal sites were much lower than the values reported from the developed countries and were indicative of a high prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis. BMD showed a decline after the age of 35 years in cases of the lumbar spine and femoral neck. This was largely due to a decrease of bone mineral content (BMC). The nutritional status of women appears to be an important determinant of bone parameters. BMD and BMC at all the skeletal sites and whole body increased significantly with increasing body weight and BMI of women (P<0.05). However, bone area (BA) did not change with an increase in BMI. In the multiple regression analysis, apart from body weight, age, menopause and calcium intake were the other important determinants of BMD (P<0.05). In addition to these, height was also an important determinant of WB-BMC. This study highlights the urgent need for measures to improve the nutritional status, dietary calcium intake and thus the bone health of this population.All the authors were affiliated with the National Institute of Nutrition during the study period.  相似文献

A higher calcium intake is still the primary recommendation for the prevention of osteoporosis, whereas vitamin D deficiency is often not addressed. To study the relative importance of dietary calcium intake and serum 25‐hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] status in regard to hip BMD, 4958 community‐dwelling women and 5003 men ≥20 yr of age from the U.S. NHANES III population‐based survey were studied. Calcium supplement users and individuals with a prior radius or hip fracture were excluded. We calculated standardized means for BMD by quartiles of sex‐specific calcium intake for three 25(OH)D categories (<50, 50–74, and 75+ nM) among men and women, separately controlling for other important predictors of BMD. A higher calcium intake was significantly associated with higher BMD (p value for trend: p = 0.005) only for women with 25(OH)D status <50 nM, whereas calcium intake beyond the upper end of the lowest quartile (>566 mg/d) was not significantly associated with BMD at 25(OH)D concentrations >50 nM. Among men, there was no significant association between a higher calcium intake beyond the upper end of the lowest quartile (626 mg/d) and BMD within all 25(OH)D categories. Among both sexes, BMD increased stepwise and significantly with higher 25(OH)D concentrations (<50, 50–74, 75+ nM; p value for trend: women < 0.0001; men = 0.0001). Among men and women, 25(OH)D status seems to be the dominant predictor of BMD relative to calcium intake. Only women with 25(OH)D concentrations <50 nM seem to benefit from a higher calcium intake.  相似文献

In this 14-year prospective study, men and women were found to share a common set of risk factors for hip fracture: low BMD, postural instability and/or quadriceps weakness, a history of falls, and prior fracture. The combination of these risk factors accounted for 57% and 37% of hip fractures in women and men, respectively. INTRODUCTION: Risk factors for hip fracture, including low BMD, identified in women, have not been shown to be useful in men. It is also not known whether fall-related factors (muscle strength and postural instability) predict hip fracture. This study examined the association between falls-related factors and hip fractures in elderly men and women. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is an epidemiologic, community-based prospective study, which included 960 women and 689 men > or = 60 years of age who have been followed for a median of 12 years (interquartile range, 6-13). The number of person-years was 9961 for women and 4463 for men. The outcome measure was incidence of hip fracture. Risk factors were femoral neck BMD (FNBMD), postural sway, quadriceps strength, prior fracture, and fall. RESULTS: Between 1989 and 2003, 115 (86 women) sustained a hip fracture. The risk of hip fracture (as measured by hazards ratio [HR]) was increased by 3.6-fold (95% CI: 2.6-4.5) in women and 3.4-fold (95% CI: 2.5-4.6) in men for each SD (0.12 g/cm2) reduction in FNBMD. After adjusting for BMD, the risk of hip fracture was also increased in individuals with the highest tertile of postural sway (HR: 2.7; 95% CI: 1.6-4.5) and low tertiles of quadriceps strength (HR: 3.0; 95% CI: 1.3-6.8). Furthermore, a history of fall during the preceding 12 months and a history of fracture were independent predictors of hip fracture. For each level of BMD, the risk of hip fracture increased linearly with the number of non-BMD risk factors. Approximately 57% and 37% of hip fracture cases in women and men, respectively, were attributable to the presence of risk factors, osteoporosis (BMD T score < or = -2.5), and advancing age. CONCLUSIONS: Men and women had a common set of risk factors for hip fracture: low BMD, postural instability and/or quadriceps weakness, a history of falls, and prior fracture. Preventive strategies should simultaneously target reducing falls and improvement of bone strength in both men and women.  相似文献

Bone mineral density, muscle strength, and recreational exercise in men.   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Muscle strength has been shown to predict bone mineral density (BMD) in women. We examined this relationship in 50 healthy men who ranged in age from 28 to 51 years (average 38.3 years). BMD of the lumbar spine, proximal femur, whole body, and tibia were measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (Hologic QDR 1000W). Dynamic strength using one repetition maximum was assessed for the biceps, quadriceps, and back extensors and for the hip abductors, adductors, and flexors. Isometric grip strength was measured by dynamometry. Daily walking mileage was assessed by 9 week stepmeter records and kinematic analysis of video filming. Subjects were designated as exercisers and nonexercisers. Exercisers participated in recreational exercise at least two times each week. The results demonstrated that BMD at all sites correlated with back and biceps strength (p < 0.01 to p = 0.0001). Body weight correlated with tibia and whole-body BMD (p < 0.001); age negatively correlated with Ward's triangle BMD (p < 0.01). In stepwise multiple regressions, back strength was the only independent predictor of spine and femoral neck density (R2 = 0.27). Further, back strength was the most robust predictor of BMD at the trochanter, Ward's triangle, whole body, and tibia, although biceps strength, age, body weight, and leg strength contributed significantly to BMD at these skeletal sites, accounting for 35-52% of the variance in BMD. Exercisers and nonexercisers were similar for walking (3.97 versus 3.94 miles/day), age (37.8 versus 38.5) years, and weight (80.0 versus 77.7 kg). However, BMD and muscle strength were significantly greater in exercises than in nonexercisers.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Finite element analysis of computed tomography (CT) scans provides noninvasive estimates of bone strength at the spine and hip. To further validate such estimates clinically, we performed a 5‐year case‐control study of 1110 women and men over age 65 years from the AGES‐Reykjavik cohort (case = incident spine or hip fracture; control = no incident spine or hip fracture). From the baseline CT scans, we measured femoral and vertebral strength, as well as bone mineral density (BMD) at the hip (areal BMD only) and lumbar spine (trabecular volumetric BMD only). We found that for incident radiographically confirmed spine fractures (n = 167), the age‐adjusted odds ratio for vertebral strength was significant for women (2.8, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.8 to 4.3) and men (2.2, 95% CI 1.5 to 3.2) and for men remained significant (p = 0.01) independent of vertebral trabecular volumetric BMD. For incident hip fractures (n = 171), the age‐adjusted odds ratio for femoral strength was significant for women (4.2, 95% CI 2.6 to 6.9) and men (3.5, 95% CI 2.3 to 5.3) and remained significant after adjusting for femoral neck areal BMD in women and for total hip areal BMD in both sexes; fracture classification improved for women by combining femoral strength with femoral neck areal BMD (p = 0.002). For both sexes, the probabilities of spine and hip fractures were similarly high at the BMD‐based interventional thresholds for osteoporosis and at corresponding preestablished thresholds for “fragile bone strength” (spine: women ≤ 4500 N, men ≤ 6500 N; hip: women ≤ 3000 N, men ≤ 3500 N). Because it is well established that individuals over age 65 years who have osteoporosis at the hip or spine by BMD criteria should be considered at high risk of fracture, these results indicate that individuals who have fragile bone strength at the hip or spine should also be considered at high risk of fracture. © 2014 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.  相似文献

The association of knee extensor muscle strength with bone mineral density (BMD) has been reported in cross-sectional epidemiological studies, but it remains unclear whether or not this is the case with longitudinal change. Thus, we investigated whether or not the knee extension strength can predict the incidence of osteopenia or osteoporosis after 6 years, then compared the difference between sexes. Subjects were 1255 community-dwelling Japanese men and menopaused women, aged 40–81 years. BMD of lumbar spine and femoral neck was assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry twice at 6-year intervals. Subjects were divided into three groups, normal, osteopenia, and osteoporosis, depending on their young adult mean BMD % value. In the cross-sectional analysis the correlations between the knee extension strength and BMD of the two regions were examined, using Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Longitudinal analyses were then conducted to determine the odds ratio, controlled for age and BMI, given that those who were normal in the initial stage developed osteopenia or osteoporosis after 6 years, for every 1 SD decrease in knee extension strength, as well as those who first had normal or osteopenia and then developed osteoporosis. Cross-sectional analysis showed a statistically significant relation between knee extensor muscle strength and BMD at both the lumbar spine (p = 0.02) and the femoral neck (p < 0.0001) only in men. The longitudinal analysis showed the significant effect of muscle strength on the loss of femoral neck BMD from normal to osteopenia or osteoporosis both in men (OR 1.84, 95 % CI 1.36–2.48, p < 0.0001) and in women (OR 1.29, 95 % CI 1.002–1.65, p < 0.05), as well as on the loss of spinal BMD from normal or osteopenia to osteoporosis only in men (OR 2.97, 95 % CI 1.07–8.23, p < 0.05). The results suggest the importance of knee extension strength to maintain the bone health of the proximal femur and spine in aging particularly in men.  相似文献

Bone mineral density (BMD) is a reflection of bone strength and lifestyles that preserve bone mass and may reduce fracture risk in old age. This study examined the effect of combined profiles of smoking, physical activity, and body mass index (BMI) on lifetime bone loss. Data were collected from the population‐based Tromsø Study. BMD was measured as g/cm2 by dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the total hip and femoral neck in 2580 women and 2084 men aged 30 to 80 years in the 2001–02 survey, and repeated in 1401 women and 1113 men in the 2007–08 survey. Height and weight were measured and lifestyle information was collected through questionnaires. Data were analyzed using linear mixed models with second‐degree fractional polynomials. From the peak at the age around 40 years to 80 years of age, loss rates varied between 4% at the total hip and 14% at femoral neck in nonsmoking, physically active men with a BMI of 30 kg/m2 to approximately 30% at both femoral sites in heavy smoking, physically inactive men with a BMI value of 18 kg/m2. In women also, loss rates of more than 30% were estimated in the lifestyle groups with a BMI value of 18 kg/m2. BMI had the strongest effect on BMD, especially in the oldest age groups, but a BMI above 30 kg/m2 did not exert any additional effect compared with the population average BMI of 27 kg/m2. At the age of 80 years, a lifestyle of moderate BMI to light overweight, smoking avoidance, and physical activity of 4 hours of vigorous activity per week through adult life may result in 1 to 2 standard deviations higher BMD levels compared with a lifestyle marked by heavy smoking, inactivity, and low weight. In the prevention of osteoporosis and fracture risk, the effect of combined lifestyles through adult life should be highlighted. © 2014 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.  相似文献

Low estrogen exposure throughout life is thought to result in low bone mineral density (BMD) and an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease. In the Rotterdam Study we cross-sectionally examined the relation between BMD and peripheral arterial disease (PAD), as assessed by an ankle-arm index (AAI) of <0.9 in either leg. Data on BMD and PAD were available for 5268 individuals (3053 women, 2215 men). From the BMD, Z-scores were calculated and subsequently divided into tertiles. Logistic regression analysis was used to compute odds ratios (OR) for PAD in tertiles of BMD, using the upper tertile as a reference. When adjusting for age, women with a low femoral neck BMD had a significantly increased risk of PAD (OR = 1.49, 95% CI 1.16-1.91). This could not be found for men (1.14, 0.84-1.53). The mid-tertile did not differ from the reference in either men or women. In women, additional adjustment for several potential confounders resulted in a somewhat lowered risk estimate (1.35, 1.02-1.79). In contrast, no association between lumbar spine BMD and PAD could be observed in either men or women. Our study shows an association between low femoral neck BMD and PAD in women only, an association unlikely to be causal. Estrogen deficiency may be the common denominator in osteoporosis and PAD, resulting in clustering of these two major diseases in postmenopausal women.  相似文献

Osteoporosis is a growing health problem not only in women but also in men. To assess determinants of bone mineral density (BMD) at the spine and proximal femur, a randomly selected sample of 140 Finnish men aged 54–63 years was measured using fan beam dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Isometric muscle strength was measured using a computerized measurement system and cardiorespiratory fitness was assessed with maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) using breath-by-breath respiratory gas analyses during an incremental bicycle ergometer exercise. Intakes of calcium and energy were estimated using 4-day food records. Smoking habits and alcohol consumption were assessed from an interview and a 4 week diary, respectively. Isometric muscle strength of triceps and biceps brachii, extensors and flexors of thigh and rectus abdominis correlated significantly with BMD (r= 0.18–0.35, p= 0.02–0.000). Calcium intake correlated positively with femoral (r= 0.19–0.28, p= 0.03–0.003), but not with lumbar BMD. In addition, calcium intake adjusted for dietary energy content (mg/MJ) correlated with femoral BMD (r= 0.25–0.36, p= 0.03–0.000). Smoking had no effect on BMD, whereas alcohol intake correlated positively with BMD at L2–L4 (r = 0.19, p= 0.031). In the multiple linear regression analysis adjusted calcium intake predicted BMD in every site measured, while strength of abdominal muscles predicted BMD at Ward’s triangle and femoral neck. Body weight was a predictor of trochanteric BMD. Body height was the best predictor of lumbar and femoral neck area. We conclude that low dietary calcium intake, weak muscle strength and low body weight are risk factors for low BMD in men. Received: 30 August 1999 / Accepted: 29 December 1999  相似文献

The relative contributions of calcium and vitamin D to calcium metabolism and bone mineral density (BMD) have been examined previously, but not in a population with very low calcium intake. To determine the relative importance of dietary calcium intake and serum 25‐hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentration to calcium metabolism and bone mass in a population with low calcium intake, a total of 4662 adults (2567 men and 2095 women) ≥50 years of age from the 2009–2010 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) were divided into groups according to dietary calcium intakes (quintiles means: 154, 278, 400, 557, and 951 mg/d) and serum 25(OH)D concentrations (<50, 50–75, and >75 nmol/L). Serum intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) and femoral neck and lumbar spine BMD were evaluated according to dietary calcium intake and serum 25(OH)D. Mean calcium intake was 485 mg/d; mean serum 25(OH)D concentration was 48.1 nmol/L; PTH was 68.4 pg/mL; femoral neck BMD was 0.692 g/cm2; and lumbar spine BMD was 0.881 g/cm2. Lower dietary calcium intakes were significantly associated with higher serum PTH concentrations and lower femoral neck BMD, not only at lower (<50 nmol/L) but also at higher (>75 nmol/L) serum 25(OH)D concentrations. Serum PTH was highest and femoral neck BMD was lowest in the group, with a serum 25(OH)D less than 50 nmol/L. In this low‐intake population, calcium intake is a significant determinant of serum PTH and BMD at higher as well as lower 25(OH)D levels. This finding indicates that low calcium intake cannot be compensated for with higher 25(OH)D levels alone. As expected, serum 25(OH)D levels were inversely associated with serum PTH and BMD. A calcium intake of at least 668 mg/d and a serum 25(OH)D level of at least 50 nmol/L may be needed to maintain bone mass in this calcium deficient population. © 2013 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.  相似文献

The goal of this study is to determine the associations between the components of a frailty definition and bone mineral density (BMD) in older men. A total of 392 community dwelling men (age range: 58-95 yr) with a mean age of 73+/-8 yr were evaluated. Femoral neck BMD T-scores ranged from -5.78 to +2.50, with 48.7% who had T-scores between -1 and -2.5 (low bone mass) and 8.7% who had T scores < or = -2.5 (osteoporosis). Participants were characterized as normal (39%), intermediate (55%), or frail (6%). Hand grip strength was 31.5+/-9.1 kg in those with normal BMD compared with 26.5+/-7.9 kg in those with osteoporotic BMD (p=0.0026). Walk speed (8 ft) was 2.32+/-0.49 s in those with normal BMD compared with 2.87+/-1.30 s with osteoporotic BMD (p=0.0015). Femoral neck T-score declined significantly with increasing level of frailty (p=0.014), but significance of decline was lost when corrected for age. Increasing frailty was associated with lower femoral neck BMD, although the association was not independent of age. Two components of the frailty model (i.e., hand grip strength and walking speed) were independently associated with lower femoral neck BMD, a finding that has not previously been reported in men.  相似文献

Ascorbic acid is a required cofactor in the hydroxylations of lysine and proline necessary for collagen formation; its role in bone cell differentiation and formation is less well characterized. This study examines the cross-sectional relation between dietary vitamin C intake and bone mineral density (BMD) in women from the Postmenopausal Estrogen/Progestin Interventions Trial. BMD (spine and hip) was measured using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). The PEPI participants (n = 775) included in this analysis were Caucasian and ranged in age from 45 to 64 years. At the femoral neck and total hip after adjustment for age, BMI, estrogen use, smoking, leisure physical activity, calcium and total energy intake, each 100 mg increment in dietary vitamin C intake, was associated with a 0.017 g/cm2 increment in BMD (P= 0.002 femoral neck; P= 0.005 total hip). After adjustment, the association of vitamin C with lumbar spine BMD was similar to that at the hip, but was not statistically significant (P= 0.08). To assess for effect modification by dietary calcium, the analyses were repeated, stratified by calcium intake (>500 mg/day and ≤500 mg/day). For the femoral neck, women with higher calcium intake had an increment of 0.0190 g/cm2 in BMD per 100 mg vitamin C (P= 0.002). No relation between BMD and vitamin C was evident in the lower calcium stratum. Similar effect modification by calcium was observed at the total hip: the β coefficient in the higher calcium stratum was similar to that for the total sample (β= 0.0172, P= 0.01), but no statistically significant relation between total hip BMD and vitamin C was found in the lower calcium subgroup. Although the relation between vitamin C and lumbar spine BMD was of marginal statistical significance in the total sample, among women ingesting higher calcium, a statistically significant association was observed (β= 0.0199, P= 0.024). These data are consistent with a positive association of vitamin C with BMD in postmenopausal women with dietary calcium intakes of at least 500 mg.

The importance of dietary calcium for bone health is unclear, partly since most investigations have dealt only with a fairly narrow range of calcium intake. In the present population-based observational study with longitudinal dietary assessment, we investigated women with a mean age of 60 years and with a consistently high (range 1417–2417, mean 1645 mg,n=40), intermediate (800–1200, mean 1006 mg,n=35) or low (400–550, mean 465 mg,n=40) estimated daily consumption of calcium. Measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, femoral neck and total body were performed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, as well as ultrasound of the heel. In a multivariate analysis, with adjustment for energy intake the risk factors for osteoporosis (age, body mass index, physical activity, menopausal age, use of estrogens, smoking and former athletic activity), the group with the highest calcium intake had higher values for BMD than the others at all measured sites. The average mean difference compared with the low and the intermediate calcium group was 11% for the femoral neck, 8–11% for the lumbar spine and 5–6% for total body BMDs. In univariate analyses and multivariate models which did not include energy intake, the differences between the groups were less pronounced. The women in the intermediate calcium group had approximately the same mean BMD values as those in the low calcium group. These findings support the view that only a high calcium intake (3% highest percentiles in the studied population) protects against osteoporosis in Swedish postmenopausal women.  相似文献

Dietary protein and/or calorie insufficiencies represent an important problem in elderly patients. The biological and clinical implications, and particularly the influence on bone mass of undernutrition in the elderly, have not been completely defined, although several studies have demonstrated a high prevalence of dietary insufficiencies in patients with a recent fracture of the proximal femur. In the present study the relationship between dietary intakes, physical performance and bone mineral density (BMD) was examined in hospitalized elderly patients. The study comprised 74 patients (48 women, mean age 82 years; and 26 men, mean age 80 years) who were hospitalized for various medical indications. They were divided into two groups according to their dietary protein intakes, evaluated during the first 28 days in hospital while on a regular diet. The first group consisted of 26 patients (14 women and 12 men) whose protein intake was equal to or greater than 1 g per kilogram of ideal body weight. The second group consisted of 48 patients (34 women and 14 men) who consumed less than 1 g of protein per kilogram of ideal body weight. The two groups differed also in their energy, carbohydrate, lipid and calcium intakes. Patients in the group with the higher protein intake displayed higher BMD at the level of the femoral neck as measured by dual-photon absorptiometry. The men in this group also had higher lumbar spine BMD. After 4 weeks in hospital the women with a higher protein intake had significantly enhanced bicipital and quadricipital muscle strength and better performance as indicated by the increased capacity to climb stairs. These results indicate that lower dietary intakes in hospitalized elderly patients without fractures are associated with lower physical performance and lower femoral neck BMD. Thus, the role of dietary factors, including protein, in the risk of proximal femoral fractures deserves further investigation.  相似文献
