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.

Bone Density in an Immigrant Population from Southeast Asia 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
M. A. Marquez L. J. Melton III J. M. Muhs C. S. Crowson A. Tosomeen M. K. O’Connor W. M. O’Fallon B. L. Riggs 《Osteoporosis international》2001,12(7):595-604
The epidemiology of bone loss in populations of Asian heritage is still poorly known. This study compared the skeletal status
of a convenience sample of 396 Southeast Asian immigrants (172 Vietnamese, 171 Cambodians and 53 Laotians) residing in Rochester,
Minnesota in 1997 with 684 white subjects previously recruited from an age-stratified random sample of community residents.
Areal bone mineral density (BMD, g/cm2) and volumetric bone mineral apparent density (BMAD, g/cm3) were determined for lumbar spine and proximal femur using the Hologic QDR 2000 instrument for the white population and the
QDR 4500 for Southeast Asian subjects; the machines were cross-calibrated from data on 20 volunteers. Lumbar spine BMD was
7% higher in white than Southeast Asian women ( p < 0.001), and similar results were observed for the femoral neck; lumbar spine BMD was 12% higher in white than nonwhite
men ( p < 0.001). Race-specific discrepancies were reduced by calculating BMAD: for premenopausal women, lumbar spine and femoral
neck differences between whites and Southeast Asians were eliminated; for postmenopausal women the lumbar spine differences
persisted ( p < 0.0001), while femoral neck BMAD was actually higher for Southeast Asians. There were no race-specific differences in femoral
neck BMAD among men of any age ( p= 0.312), but lumbar spine BMAD was less for younger ( p= 0.042) but not older ( p= 0.693) Southeast Asian men. There were differences among the Southeast Asian subgroups, but no clear pattern emerged. Predictors
of lumbar spine BMAD in Southeast Asian women were age ( p < 0.001), weight ( p= 0.015) and gravidity ( p= 0.037). Even after adjusting for bone size using BMAD, 32% and 9% of Southeast Asian women and men, respectively, would
be considered to have osteoporosis at the femoral neck and 25% and 4%, respectively, at the lumbar spine. These findings indicate
a need for culturally sensitive educational interventions for Southeast Asians and for physicians to pursue diagnosis and
treatment to prevent osteoporosis-related disabilities in this population.

The aim of this study was to determine possible associations between bone mineral density (BMD), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D)
and intact parathyroid hormone (PTH). In a retrospective study we examined the case notes of free-living postmenopausal women
living in our city (34° S). We also report a low prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (25(OH)D <25 nmol/l, 5.6%) and of secondary
hyperparathyroidism (intact PTH >65 pg/ml, 7.5%). Age was correlated with BMD at the lumbar spine (r=−0.25, p = 0.00038) and femoral neck (r=−0.252, p = 0.0003). Body mass index (BMI) was correlated with BMD at the femoral neck (r= 0.177, p = 0.021) but not at the lumbar spine. 25(OH)D was positively correlated with BMD at the femoral neck (r = 0.149, p=0.036) but not at the lumbar spine. PTH was positively correlated with age (r= 0.279, p = 0.012) and negatively correlated with 25(OH)D (r=−0.322, p = 0.0036). PTH was also negatively correlated with BMD at the lumbar spine (r=−0.258, p=0.02) and the femoral neck (r=−0.282, p = 0.011). Forward stepwise multiple regression showed that BMI, age and 25(OH)D made significant contributions to BMD at
the femoral neck. PTH also showed a significant contribution to BMD at both sites. In conclusion, weak correlations found
between PTH and 25(OH)D and BMD suggest these biochemical variables, among other factors, contribute to lumbar spine and femoral
neck BMD.

Subjects exposed to environmental tobacco smoke have been found to be at increased risk for several health problems. Whether
exposure to passive tobacco smoke is associated with reduced bone mineral density (BMD) is unknown. In order to examine this,
we measured BMD in 154 healthy premenopausal women (age range 40–45 years). BMD of the total hip, femoral neck, lumbar spine
and total body was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Data were collected on exposure to household tobacco
smoke from age 10 years to the present as well as on other lifestyle factors related to bone mass. We found that 67.5% of
the subjects had a history of household tobacco smoke exposure. Subjects exposed to household tobacco smoke had a mean adjusted
BMD that was significantly lower at the total hip (p= 0.021) and femoral neck (p= 0.018) compared with subjects who were not exposed. In addition, duration of household tobacco smoke exposure was negatively
associated with BMD at the total hip (p = 0.010), femoral neck (p= 0.004), lumbar spine (p = 0.037) and total body (p = 0.031). Subjects exposed to household tobacco smoke for 15 years or more had mean adjusted BMD that was 4% lower at the
total body, and more than 8% lower at the total hip, femoral neck and lumbar spine, compared with subjects who were not exposed.
In conclusion, household tobacco smoke exposure during adolescence and young adulthood was found to be negatively associated
with BMD at the total hip and femoral neck, and duration of exposure was negatively associated with BMD at the total hip,
femoral neck, lumbar spine and total body in premenopausal women.

Osteocalcin Gene Polymorphism is Related to Bone Density in Healthy Adolescent Females 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A. Gustavsson P. Nordström R. Lorentzon U. H. Lerner M. Lorentzon 《Osteoporosis international》2000,11(10):847-851
Recently a polymorphism was found in the human osteocalcin gene, and its association with bone mass was investigated in healthy
postmenopausal Japanese women. The osteocalcin gene allelic variant HH was found to be overrepresented in women with osteopenia.
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the previously demonstrated polymorphism of the osteocalcin gene was
related to bone mineral density (BMD; g/cm2) or osteopenia in a group of 97 healthy Caucasian adolescent females (aged 16.9 ± 1.2 years, mean ± SD). BMD of the left
humerus, right femoral neck, lumbar spine and total body was measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The relation
between the allelic variants and bone density was analyzed as presence or absence of the H allele. Presence of the H allele
was found to be related to a lower BMD of the humerus (0.97 vs 1.02, p = 0.03). There was also a strong tendency towards significance at the femoral neck (p = 0.06) and total body (p = 0.11). Using a multiple linear regression and including physical activity, weight, height and years since menarche, presence
of the H allele was found to be an independent predictor of humerus BMD (β=−0.21, p<0.05) and femoral neck BMD (β=−0.23, p<0.01). Using logistic regression, presence of the H allele was also independently associated with a 4.5 times increased risk
of osteopenia (p = 0.03) in the whole group. Osteopenia was defined as at least 1 SD lower bone density than the mean for the whole group
of at least one of the BMD sites measured. We have demonstrated that the osteocalcin HindIII genotype is independently related to bone density in healthy adolescent females. The present study also suggests that
presence of the H allele is predictive of osteopenia at an early age.

Estimation of Bone Mineral Density by Digital X-ray Radiogrammetry: Theoretical Background and Clinical Testing 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
A. Rosholm L. Hyldstrup L. Bæksgaard M. Grunkin H. H. Thodberg 《Osteoporosis international》2001,12(11):961-969
A new automated radiogrammetric method to estimate bone mineral density (BMD) from a single radiograph of the hand and forearm
is described. Five regions of interest in radius, ulna and the three middle metacarpal bones are identified and approximately
1800 geometrical measurements from these bones are used to obtain a BMD estimate of the distal forearm, referred to as BMDDXR (from digital X-ray radiogrammetry, DXR). The measured dimensions for each bone are the cortical thickness and the outer
width, in combination with an estimate of the cortical porosity. The short-term in vivo precision of BMDDXR was observed to be 0.60% in a clinical study of 24 women and the in vitro variation over 12 different radiological clinics
was found to be 1% of the young normal BMDDXR level. In a cohort of 416 women BMDDXR was found to be closely correlated with BMD at the distal forearm measured by dual-energy X-ray absoptiometry (r= 0.86, p<0.0001) and also with BMD at the spine, total hip and femoral neck (r= 0.62, 0.69 and 0.73, respectively, p<0.0001 for all). The annual decline was estimated from the cohort to be 1.05% in the age group 55–65 years. Relative to this
age-related loss, the reported short-term precision allows for monitoring intervals of 1.0 years and 1.6 years in order to
detect expected age-related changes with a confidence of 80% and 95%, respectively. It is concluded that the DXR method offers
a BMD estimate with a good correlation with distal forearm BMD, a low variation between geographical sites and a precision
that potentially allows for relatively short observation intervals.

Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphisms, Bone Mass, Bone Loss and Prevalence of Vertebral Fracture: Differences in Postmenopausal Women and Men 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
C. Gómez M. L. Naves Y. Barrios J. B. Díaz J. L. Fernández E. Salido A. Torres J. B. Cannata 《Osteoporosis international》1999,10(3):175-182
Bone mineral density (BMD), the major determinant of fracture risk, is under strong genetic control. Although polymorphisms
of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene have been suggested to account for some of the genetic variation in bone mass, the influence
of VDR genotypes on osteoporosis remains controversial. Previous published studies have focused mainly on women, but the pattern
of response in men has not been determined. Using the BsmI restriction enzyme, we studied the influence of the different VDR genotypes on bone mass, bone loss and the prevalence of
vertebral fractures in a population-based sample of both sexes (n = 326). BMD was measured at the lumbar spine and femoral neck, with a 4-year interval, using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.
Vertebral fractures were assessed by two lateral radiographs at the beginning and end of the study. The prevalence of the
three possible VDR genotypes was similar to those in other Caucasian populations and no differences were found between men
and women. Women with the favorable bb genotype showed significantly higher BMD values at the lumbar spine and femoral neck,
and a positive rate of BMD change at the femoral neck compared with women with the BB and Bb genotypes. Moreover, women with
the bb genotype showed a trend toward a lower prevalence and incidence of vertebral fractures (p= 0.07). We have not found any differences between VDR genotypes in men. In conclusion, VDR gene polymorphisms are related
to bone mass and bone loss in women; also a trend in the prevalence of vertebral fractures was observed in postmenopausal
women but not in men.

Determinants of Bone Loss in Elderly Men and Women: A Prospective Population-Based Study 总被引:19,自引:10,他引:9
E. Dennison R. Eastell C. H. D. Fall S. Kellingray P. J. Wood C. Cooper 《Osteoporosis international》1999,10(5):384-391
While several studies have described the rate and pattern of involutional bone loss in women, far less information is available
for men. Furthermore, the roles of lifestyle and body build in determining bone loss rate in both sexes have been largely
extrapolated from cross-sectional studies. We addressed this issue in a population-based longitudinal study which sought to
ascertain rates of bone loss at the femoral neck and lumbar spine in a cohort of men and women aged 60–75 years at baseline,
and to relate this loss to anthropometric and lifestyle variables. We additionally investigated the capacity of biochemical
markers of bone turnover to predict bone loss rates in these subjects. Women lost bone at all sites; this ranged from 0.20%/year
at the lumbar spine to 1.43%/year at the femoral trochanteric region. By contrast, men lost only 0.20%/year at the trochanteric
region, and gained at the lumbar spine (0.33%/year) and at Ward’s triangle (0.27%/year) over the 4-year period. Anthropometric
measurements were associated with bone loss in both sexes; lower baseline body mass index (BMI) and a greater rate of loss
of adiposity over the follow-up period were both associated with greater bone loss at all proximal femoral sites. These attained
statistical significance after Bonferroni correction at the total proximal femur among both men (r= 0.29), p<0.01) and women (r= 0.31, p<0.05). Lifestyle factors associated with lower rates of bone loss (after adjustment for BMI) included alcohol consumption
at the femoral neck among women (p= 0.007) and physical activity at the lumbar spine among men (p = 0.05). Serum parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D and biochemical markers of bone turnover did not predict bone loss
after adjustment for adiposity.

Two hundred and twenty-four women (74 pre-, 90 peri-, 60 post-menopausal), aged 46–59 years, from a population-based cohort
participated in a longitudinal study of bone mineral density (BMD). BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)
at the lumbar spine and femoral neck and the time between bone scans was on average 25 (range 14–41) months. The aim of the
study was to assess changes in BMD in relation to changes in normal menopausal status. During the study period women who were
between 3 and 12 months past their last menstrual period (n= 22, late perimenopausal) at the time of the second bone scan had a mean (SE) annual change in BMD of 70.9% (0.4%) at the
lumbar spine and 70.7% (0.6%) at the femoral neck (both p50.05 compared with women who remained premenopausal). In the women who became postmenopausal (n= 42) the mean annual changes in BMD were 72.5% (0.2%) at the lumbar spine and 71.7% (0.2%) at the femoral neck (both p50.0005), and in the women who remained postmenopausal (n= 60) they were 70.7% (0.2%) per year and 70.5% (0.3%) per year respectively (both p50.05), compared with women who remained premenopausal. In the 1–3 years after the final menstrual period (FMP) there was
greater bone loss from the lumbar spine than the femoral neck (p50.05). In women who were menstruating at the time of the second bone scan and whose FMP could be dated prospectively (n= 35), higher baseline oestradiol levels were associated with less lumbar spine bone loss (p50.005). In the women who remained postmenopausal there was an association between baseline body mass index (BMI) and percentage
change per year in femoral neck BMD (p50.05), such that women with higher BMI had less bone loss. In conclusion, during the time of transition from peri- to post-menopause,
women had accelerated BMD loss at both the hip and spine.

Familial dysautonomia (FD) patients suffer from multiple fractures and have reduced bone pain, which defers the diagnosis.
The pathogenesis of bone fragility in FD is unknown. This study aimed to characterize bone mineral metabolism and density
in FD. Seventy-nine FD patients aged 8 months to 48 years (mean age 13.9 ± 10.4 years, median 12.3) were studied. Clinical
data included weight, height, bone age, weekly physical activity and history of fractures. Bone mineral density (BMD) of the
lumbar spine (n= 43), femoral neck (n= 26), total hip (n= 22) and whole body (n= 15) were determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, osteocalcin, bone alkaline phosphatase (B-ALP), parathyroid hormone and urinary N-telopeptide cross-linked type 1 collagen
(NTx) were determined in 68 patients and age- and sex-matched controls. Forty-two of 79 patients (53%) sustained 75 fractures.
Twenty-four of 43 patients had a spine Z-score <–2.0, and 13 of 26 had a femoral neck Z-score <–2.0. Mean femoral neck BMD Z-score was lower in patients with fractures compared with those without (–2.5 ± 0.9 vs –1.5 ± 1.0, p= 0.01). Mean body mass index (BMI) was 16 kg/m2 in prepubertal patients and 18.4 kg/m2 in postpubertal patients. Bone age was significantly lower than chronological age (75.5 vs 99.3 months in prepubertal patients,
p<0.001; 151 vs 174 in post-pubertal patients, p<0.05). NTx and osteocalcin levels were higher in FD patients compared with controls (400 ± 338 vs 303 ± 308, BCE/mM creatinine
p<0.02; 90 ± 59.5 vs 61.8 ± 36.9 ng/ml, p<0.001, respectively). B-ALP was lower in FD patients compared with controls (44.66 ± 21.8 vs 55.36 ± 36.6 ng/ml, p<0.04). Mean spine Z-score was significantly lower in physically inactive compared with active patients (–3.00 ± 1.70 vs –1.77 ± 1.3, respectively,
p= 0.05). We conclude that fractures in FD patients are associated with reduced BMD. FD patients have increased NTx and osteocalcin.
Contributing factors include reduced BMI, failure to thrive and reduced physical activity. Preventive therapy and early diagnosis
are essential.

Changes in Bone Density in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis: A Two-Year Follow-Up Study 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
J. F. Maillefert L. S. Aho A. El Maghraoui M. Dougados C. Roux 《Osteoporosis international》2001,12(7):605-609
The objectives of the study were to determine the 2 year rate of bone changes in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS)
and, whether bone loss is related to physical impairment, systemic inflammation, and therapy. Consecutive outpatients fulfilling
the modified New York criteria for AS were included. Baseline assessment included age, disease duration, treatment, clinical,
radiologic and laboratory data. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were determined every 6
months. Persistent systemic inflammation was defined as mean ESR ≥ 28 mm/h or mean CRP ≥ 15 mg/l. Bone mineral density (BMD)
at the lumbar spine and femoral neck was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, at baseline and year 2. Statistical
analysis compared the baseline and 24 month follow-up BMD data, and determined whether baseline data, and persistent systemic
inflammation during the 2 years, were related to the 24 month percentage changes in BMD. Fifty-four patients (35 men, 19 women;
mean age 37.3 ± 11.3 years, mean disease duration 12.4 ± 8.6 years) were included. After 2 years, BMD did not change at the
lumbar spine (+0.75%± 3.5, p= 0.23), and decreased at the femoral neck (–1.6%± 4, p= 0.006). The 24 month percentage change in femoral neck BMD was related to persistent systemic inflammation, defined using
ESR (mean percentage change –4.1%± 5.7 and –1.2%± 3.9 in patients with and without persistent inflammation; respectively; p= 0.007). These results suggest that persistent inflammation might be an etiologic factor of bone loss in AS.

Osteoporosis in men is a significant health problem, and factors associated with bone mass are being investigated. Although
osteoporosis is a typical feature of hypogonadism, the influence of testosterone levels and other hormonal factors on bone
mass of eugonadal males is unknown. Our aim was to identify several anthropometric and hormonal predictors that could be responsible
for the variability in bone mineral density (BMD) in healthy men. One hundred elderly men (age 68 ± 7 years) were investigated
in this cross-sectional study. BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the lumbar spine and femoral
sites (femoral neck, Ward’s triangle, trochanter, intertrochanter and total femur). Anthropometric measures were obtained
including: weight, height, body mass index (BMI), waist–hip ratio and testicular volume. Hormonal data measures were total,
free and bioavailable testosterone, dihidrotestosterone, estradiol, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), insulin-like growth
factor I (IGF-I), intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3). One subject was excluded because primary hypogonadism was found. SHBG levels were increased in 53.5% of men, and 8% showed
a mild increase in iPTH levels. Twenty-eight subjects had densitometric criteria of osteoporosis (T-score ≤−2.5). All BMD sites were positively correlated with body weight (r= 0.29–0.48, p<0.001) and BMI (r= 0.24–0.47, p<0.001). A negative correlation between SHBG levels and intertrochanter (IT) and total femur (TL) BMD was found (r=−0.24 and r=−0.22, p<0.05). After adjusting for age and BMI, SHBG and IGF-I levels were negatively correlated (r=−0.33, p<0.001). In multiple linear regression analysis independent predictors of bone mass were body weight, SHBG and iPTH levels.
The best predictive model accounted for 24–40% of the observed variability of BMD. However, most of the BMD variability was
explained by body weight. In conclusion, in our study body weight, SHBG and iPTH levels were predictors of BMD in healthy
elderly men.

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.

Much work has been done on the association between vitamin D receptor (VDR) genotypes and bone mineral density (BMD). Despite
considerable effort, the results are inconsistent. While the VDR association remains unresolved, studies have expanded to
other candidate genes (i.e., estrogen receptor (ER) genotypes), also yielding inconsistent results. A few studies have suggested
that interaction effects between VDR and ER genotypes significantly affect BMD. We assessed associations of BMD with VDR BsmI genotypes, and ER XbaI and PvuII polymorphisms (denoted as ERX and ERP respectively) with spine, femoral neck, distal radius BMD, and with total body bone
mineral content (tbBMC) in 108 US Mid-western postmenopausal Caucasian women. We statistically controlled for confounding
factors such as height, weight, etc., in the analysis. No significant association was detected for ER genotypes with spine
and radius BMD, or for VDR genotypes with femoral neck and radius BMD and tbBMC. No significant interaction between VDR and
ER genotypes was detected in our sample. However, the VDR genotypes are significantly (p = 0.004) associated with *5.8% spine BMD variation. Both ERX and ERP genotypes are significantly (p = 0.02) associated with *3.5% femoral neck BMD variation. ERX genotypes are significantly (p = 0.03) associated with *2.4% tbBMC variation. However, if the data were analyzed by simple ANOVA as in some previous studies,
without adjusting statistically for confounding factors, all the significant results we found here would have gone undetected.
Our findings suggest that: (1) VDR and ER genotypes may have different effects on BMD at different sites and on tbBMC; and
(2) if significant factors influencing bone are not appropriately controlled, true significant associations can easily be
missed. These findings may offer a partial explanation for some of the earlier inconsistent results of association studies
on BMD with VDR and ER genotypes.

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) of bone is a valuable tool in the assessment of postmenopausal osteoporosis. QUS and new markers
of bone turnover have been poorly assessed in Cushing’s syndrome, however. Twenty-five patients with Cushing’s syndrome (20
women, 3 men; mean age ± SEM: 38 ± 2 years) were studied and compared with 35 age- and sex-matched control patients (mean
age ± SEM: 38 ± 2 years). The following variables were measured in both groups: QUS parameters at the heel (BUA; SOS; Stiffness
Index, SI); bone mineral density (BMD) at both the lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry;
and serum markers of bone turnover (osteocalcin, procollagen type I N- and C-terminal propeptides (PINP and PICP), bone alkaline
phosphatase (BAP), procollagen type I C-terminal telopeptide (ICTP) and urinary type I collagen C-telopepetide breakdown products
(CTX)). Both BUA and SI were decreased in patients with Cushing’s syndrome (p<0.01) but not SOS (p=0.08). BMD was also strongly decreased in Cushing’s syndrome, at both the LS and FN (p<0.005). The two markers of bone turnover statistically significantly different between the two groups were osteocalcin (mean
± SEM: 3.5 ± 0.7 ng/ml (Cushing’s syndrome) vs 6.4 ± 0.5 ng/ml (controls, p<0.01)) and CTX (mean ± SEM: 148.7 ± 17.1 μg/mmol Cr (Cushing’s syndrome) vs 220.8 ± 22.9 μg/mmol Cr (controls), p<0.05). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were 0.72 (BUA), 0.73 (SI), 0.90 (BMDLS), 0.81 (BMDFN), 0.83 (osteocalcin) and 0.64 (CTX) respectively. AUC was significantly higher for BMDLS than for both BUA and SI (p<0.05). Conversely AUC was not statistically significantly different for BMDFN as compared with either BUA or SI. AUC was also higher for osteocalcin than for other markers of bone turnover. In conclusion,
QUS of bone seems to be a relevant tool for assessing bone involvement in Cushing’s syndrome. QUS does have a lower sensitivity
compared with DXA, however, and the relevance of QUS cannot be ascertained until some longitudinal data are forthcoming. Except
for CTX, the other new markers of bone turnover assessed in this study (PINP, PICP, BAP and ICTP) do not seem of interest
in Cushing’s syndrome.

Effects of Alendronate on Bone Density in Men with Primary and Secondary Osteoporosis 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Alendronate has been reported to increase bone mineral density (BMD) and reduce fracture risk in women with osteoporosis.
As there are no proven safe and effective treatments available for men with osteoporosis, we compared the effects of alendronate
(10 mg/day) on BMD, measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, in a 12-month prospective, controlled, open label study
involving (i) men with primary (n= 23) or secondary osteoporosis (n= 18), (ii) postmenopausal women with primary (n= 18) or secondary (n= 21) osteoporosis, and (iii) 29 male and 14 female untreated controls matched by age, height and weight. The patients had
one or more vertebral fractures and ranged in age from 34.6 to 85.1 years. BMD was detectably increased relative to baseline
by 6 months, and increased by comparable amounts in males and females with primary or secondary osteoporosis. At 12 months,
lumbar spine BMD was 5.4%± 1.1% to 7.0%± 2.2% higher in the treated groups compared with baseline and controls (p<0.05 to 0.0001). Trochanteric BMD increased by 2.6%± 1.5% and 3.7%± 1.7% in treated men with primary and secondary osteoporosis,
respectively (p = 0.06 to 0.08), and by 3.9%± 1.3% in treated women with primary osteoporosis (p<0.01) after 12 months. No significant changes were detected at the femoral neck or Ward’s triangle. BMD remained unchanged
in controls. We infer that alendronate has comparable incremental effects on BMD in men and women with primary and secondary
osteoporosis within 12 months of treatment. The changes are in the order of 0.5 SD – effects associated with a clinically
worthwhile reduction in fracture risk. The data provide room for optimism regarding the role of alendronate in the treatment
of osteoporosis in men. Randomized, double-masked and placebo-controlled trials are needed to confirm these preliminary findings
and demonstrate antifracture efficacy using vertebral and nonvertebral fracture rates as the primary endpoint.

Alendronate significantly increases bone mass and reduces hip and spine fractures in postmenopausal women. To determine whether
forearm densitometry could be used to monitor the efficacy of alendronate, we examined changes in bone mineral density (BMD)
at the forearm (one-third distal, mid-distal, ultradistal radius) versus changes at the hip (femoral neck, total hip) and
spine (posteroanterior and lateral) in a double-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial of 120 elderly women
(mean age 70 ± 4 years) treated with alendronate for 2.5 years. We found that among women in the treatment group, BMD increased
by 4.0–12.2% at the hip and spine sites (all p<0.001), whereas BMD increased only nominally at the one-third distal radius (1.3%, p<0.001) and mid-radius (0.8%, p<0.05), and remained stable at the ultradistal radius. At baseline, forearm BMD correlated with that of the hip (r= 0.55–0.64, p<0.001), femoral neck (r= 0.54–0.61, p<0.001) and posteroanterior spine (r= 0.56–0.63, p<0.001). Changes in radial BMD after 1 year of therapy were not correlated with changes in hip and spine BMD after 2.5 years
of therapy. In contrast, short-term changes in total hip and spine BMD were generally positively associated with long-term
changes in total hip, femoral neck and spine BMD (r= 0.30–0.71, p<0.05). Furthermore, long-term BMD changes at the forearm did not correlate with long-term hip and spine BMD changes, in contrast
to the moderate correlations seen between spine and hip BMD at 2.5 years (r= 0.38–0.45, p<0.01). We conclude that neither short- nor long-term changes in forearm BMD predict long-term changes in overall BMD for
elderly women on alendronate therapy, suggesting that measurements of clinically relevant central sites (hip and spine) are
necessary to assess therapeutic efficacy.

In Vivo MRI Measurements of Bone Quality in the Calcaneus: A Comparison with DXA and Ultrasound 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has shown promise in the assessment of bone architecture. The precision and feasibility
of MRI measurements in osteoporosis in vivo have been assessed in this study. T2′ was calculated from measurements of T2 and
T2* in the calcaneus of 32 postmenopausal women using a gradient-echo sequence PRIME (Partially Refocused Interleaved Multiple
Echo). This sequence allows the measurement of T2 and T2* in one acquisition. In vivo measurements of bone mineral density
(BMD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) were made in the calcaneus, spine and femoral neck. The ultrasound parameters
broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) and speed of sound (SOS) were also measured in the calcaneus. These three techniques
have not previously been compared in the same study population. The precision of the MRI technique was poor relative to the
DXA and ultrasound techniques, with a CV of 6.9%± 4.4% for T2′ and 5.5%± 3.6% for T2*. Approximately 4% of this is due to
system error as determined by phantom measurements. The postmenopausal women were classified as having low BMD if they had
a lumbar spine (L2–4) BMD of less than 0.96 g/cm2 (more than 2 standard deviations below normal peak bone mass). Calcaneal T2′ was significantly correlated with calcaneal
BMD (r = –0.79, p <0.0001), BUA (r = –0.59, p = 0.0004) and SOS (r = –0.58, p = 0.0006). T2′ was significantly different in postmenopausal women with normal BMD and those with low BMD (p <0.01). However, the difference was of only borderline significance (p <0.06) after adjustment for age and years since menopause.

Postmenopausal Caucasian women aged less than 80 years (n= 99) with one or more atraumatic vertebral fracture and no hip fractures, were treated by cyclical administration of enteric coated sodium fluoride (NaF) or no NaF for 27 months, with precautions to prevent excessive stimulation of bone turnover. In the
first study 65 women, unexposed to estrogen (–E study), age 70.8 ± 0.8 years (mean ± SEM) were all treated with calcium (Ca)
1.0–1.2 g daily and ergocalciferol (D) 0.25 mg per 25 kg once weekly and were randomly assigned to cyclical NaF (6 months
on, 3 months off, initial dose 60 mg/day; group F CaD, n= 34) or no NaF (group CaD, n= 31). In the second study 34 patients, age 65.5 ± 1.2 years, on hormone replacement therapy (E) at baseline, had this standardized,
and were all treated with Ca and D and similarly randomized (FE CaD, n= 17; E CaD, n= 17) (+E study). The patients were stratified according to E status and subsequently assigned randomly to ± NaF. Seventy-five
patients completed the trial. Both groups treated with NaF showed an increase in lumbar spinal density (by DXA) above baseline
by 27 months: FE CaD + 16.2% and F CaD +9.3% (both p= 0.0001). In neither group CaD nor E CaD did lumbar spinal density increase. Peripheral bone loss occurred at most sites
in the F CaD group at 27 months: tibia/fibula shaft –7.3% (p= 0.005); femoral shaft –7.1% (p= 0.004); distal forearm –4.0% (p = 0.004); total hip –4.1% (p = 0.003); and femoral neck –3.5% (p= 0.006). No significant loss occurred in group FE CaD. Differences between the two NaF groups were greatest at the total
hip at 27 months but were not significant [p<0.05; in view of the multiple bone mineral density (BMD) sites, an alpha of 0.01 was employed to denote significance in BMD
changes throughout this paper]. Using Cox’s proportional hazards model, in the –E study there were significantly more patients
with first fresh vertebral fractures in those treated with NaF than in those not so treated (RR = 24.2, p= 0.008, 95% CI 2.3–255). Patients developing first fresh fractures in the first 9 months were markedly different between
groups: –23% of F CaD, 0 of CaD, 29% of FE CaD and 0 of E CaD. The incidence of incomplete (stress) fractures was similar
in the two NaF-treated groups. Complete nonvertebral fractures did not occur in the two +E groups; there were no differences
between groups F CaD and CaD. Baseline BMD (spine and femoral neck) was related to incident vertebral fractures in the control
groups (no NaF), but not in the two NaF groups. Our results and a literature review indicate that fluoride salts, if used,
should be at low dosage, with pretreatment and co-treatment with a bone resorption inhibitor.

The Association between Parathyroid Hormone, Vitamin D and Bone Mineral Density in 70-Year-Old Icelandic Women 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
G. Sigurdsson L. Franzson L. Steingrimsdottir H. Sigvaldason 《Osteoporosis international》2000,11(12):1031-1035
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) may be an important determinant of cortical bone remodeling in the elderly. Vitamin D status is
one of the determining factors in this relationship. The aim of this study was to quantify the relationship between serum
PTH, vitamin D and bone mineral density (BMD) in elderly women in Reykjavik (64° N), where daily intake of cod liver oil is
common and mean calcium intake is high. ln PTH correlated inversely with 25(OH)D (r=−0.26, p<0.01). In multivariate analysis PTH correlated inversely with whole body BMD (mostly cortical bone) (R
2= 2.2%, p = 0.04) but not with the lumbar spine BMD, reflecting more cancellous bone. No association was found between 25(OH)D levels
and BMD at any site in univariate or multivariate analysis. Osteocalcin, a measure of bone turnover, was negatively associated
with BMD and this association remained significant when corrected for PTH levels. In summary, in this fairly vitamin D replete
population with high calcium intake, PTH was negatively associated with total body BMD. We infer that suppression of PTH may
reduce cortical bone loss, but other factors are likely to contribute to age-related bone remodeling and osteoporosis.
