Chronic steroid use results in osteoporosis, and postmenopausal women are believed to be at a high risk for steroid-induced
bone loss. The purpose of this study was to determine predictors of bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women on
both chronic steroid and hormone replacement therapy. Seventy-six postmenopausal women (≥3 years postmenopausal, ≥2 years
of steroid treatment of ≥5 mg/day of prednisone, and ≥1 year of hormone replacement therapy) were recruited into this study.
Measurements of BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck were obtained in all subjects. Risk factors for osteoporosis were
obtained by questionnaire. Discriminant analysis was performed to determine predictors of BMD. Osteoporosis, defined by a
T score of <−2.5, was present in the lumbar spine or femoral neck in 34 of the 76 subjects. Based on these criteria, women
with osteoporosis were significantly older, were more years postmenopausal, and had a lower body mass index (BMI) than women
who did not have osteoporosis. Predictors of osteoporosis for both the femoral neck and spine included a low BMI (P < 0.05),
more years postmenopausal (P < 0.01), and more years on steroids (P < 0.01). Low BMI was the only significant predictor of osteoporosis in the lumbar spine (P < 0.05), whereas for the femoral neck both years on steroids (P < 0.05) and BMI (P < 0.05) were significant predictors of low BMD. In summary, not all postmenopausal women on chronic steroid and hormone replacement
therapy are osteoporotic but a low BMI, more years on steroids, and more years postmenopausal were significant predictors
of osteoporosis in these subjects.

Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and the prevalence for osteoporotic vertebral fractures are symptoms of growth hormone
deficiency (GHD) syndrome, and GH replacement therapy is now available for GH-deficient adults. We investigated the long-term
effects of GH replacement therapy on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone metabolism in 19 adult patients with GHD over a period
of 18 months. In response to GH treatment, the initially decreased IGF-I concentrations rose significantly during 18 months
of therapy to levels within the normal range (matched for sex and age) (mean change 158.1 ± 50.8 ng/ml, P < 0.001). Parameters of bone formation such as osteocalcin (OC) and procollagen I-C-Peptide (PICP) showed a significant increase
in the first 6 months of therapy, followed by a slight decrease in the next months. Markers of bone resorption (CrosslapsR and deoxypyridinoline (D-Pyr) also increased significantly with a peak value after 6 months and all parameters except PICP
remained above baseline values after 18 months. BMD of the femoral neck (FN) showed an increase after 18 months of therapy
(mean change 0.01 ± 0.03 g/cm2 after 18 months, n.s.). However, the increase in BMD was significant only in the lumbar spine (LS) (mean change 0.03 ± 0.04
g/cm2, P < 0.05 after 18 months). We conclude that GH replacement therapy in adult patients with GHD over a period of 18 months causes
a pronounced increase in bone turnover mainly during the first 12 months of therapy and increases BMD of the lumbar spine
and the femoral neck after 18 months.

To evaluate the long-term effect of calcitriol treatment on bone mineral density (BMD) of the femoral neck and lumbar spine
and the parameters of calcium and bone metabolism in elderly women, 55 healthy, postmenopausal women, all aged 66 years, were
enrolled in the study. Eighteen started a 4-year supplementation with 0.5 μg of calcitriol daily and 37 served as controls.
Calcium intake of all the subjects was adjusted to 800 mg daily. In 4 years femoral neck BMD increased by 3.0% in the calcitriol
group, but decreased by 1.6% in the control group (P= 0.009). The respective changes in lumbar spine BMD were +2.3% and +0.9% (P= 0.067). Two years' treatment with calcitriol increased the intestinal absorption of strontium by 57% (P < 0.001), doubled the urinary excretion of calcium (P < 0.001), and decreased the mean parathyroid hormone (PTH) level by 32% (P < 0.01). In the calcitriol group the marker of bone formation, serum osteocalcin, decreased by 27% (P < 0.01), and the marker of bone resorption, serum C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTx), by 33% (P= 0.05) after 2 years. In two subjects the calcitriol dose had to be reduced because of hypercalciuria. We conclude that calcitriol
treatment increases bone mass at the femoral neck and lumbar spine, the increases being maintained for up to 4 years. The
gain in bone mass results from reduced bone turnover which is partly a consequence of the enhanced intestinal absorption of
calcium and suppressed serum PTH levels.

Bone Mineral Density in French Canadian Women 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
C. Blanchet S. Dodin M. Dumont Y. Giguère L. Turcot-Lemay J. Beauchamp D. Prud'homme 《Osteoporosis international》1998,8(3):268-273
This cross-sectional study investigated bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine (L2–4) and femoral neck in French
Canadian women residing in the Quebec city area. Data collection was initiated in 1988 and completed in 1994. A total of 747
French Canadian Caucasian women (16–79 years of age) with no metabolic bone disease were evaluated. BMD measurements were
obtained using dual-photon absorptiometry (DPA) or dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Anthropometric measures such as
weight, height and body mass index (BMI) were recorded. Medical files provided information on demographic characteristics,
hormonal profile and lifestyle habits. Results show a curvilinear trend of BMD with aging. Furthermore, the peak BMD at the
lumbar spine (L2–4) was reached at 29 years followed by a stable phase until 35 years, after which BMD started to decrease.
The pattern of bone evolution at the femoral neck was different, peak BMD being achieved earlier, at 21 years, while after
age 26 years a significant decrease was already observed. Women older than 60 years showed the lowest BMD. Regression analysis
showed that age, weight and height are determinants of BMD at the lumbar spine and explained 33.9% of inter-individual variation.
At the femoral neck, 29.1% of variation was explained by age and height only. In conclusion, our data suggest that French
Canadian women have a different pattern of bone loss at the femoral neck compared with the lumbar spine, according to their
mean BMD values.

The purpose of this study was to ascertain whether biochemical markers of bone turnover predict bone loss. The survey was
carried out in Taiji, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan. From a list of inhabitants aged 40–79 years, 400 participants (50 men and
50 women in each of four age groups) were selected randomly. Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured, and blood and urine
samples of all participants were examined to obtain values for eight biochemical markers: alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone
Gla protein (BGP), type I procollagen (carboxyterminal peptide of type I procollagen; PICP), cross-linked carboxyterminal
telopeptide region of type I collagen (ICTP), and urinary excretion of calcium (Ca), phosphate (P), pyridinoline (Pyr), and
deoxypyridinoline (D-Pyr). Each marker was evaluated as a predictor of the rate of bone change in lumbar spine and femoral
neck BMD over a 3-year period. The value of Pyr was significantly related to the change of lumbar spine BMD in men (P= 0.009), and that of BGP was found to be significant in women (P= 0.045). By contrast, none of the bone markers significantly correlated with bone loss at the femoral neck. The coefficient
of determination at the lumbar spine was 5% and 7% at the femoral neck only. We conclude that biochemical markers of bone
turnover cannot predict bone loss rates in middle-aged or elderly Japanese men and women over a 3-year period with sufficient
accuracy for use in clinical decision making.

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.

The purpose of this study was to determine if differences exist in premenopausal women between z-scores for lumbar spine
and proximal femoral bone mineral densities (BMD). Participants were 237 women ranging in age from 20 to 45 years. BMDs of
the lumbar spine and proximal femur (femoral neck, Ward's area, and trochanter) were assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
(Lunar DPX). Mean (±SD) age, height, and weight of the participants were 29.4 ± 6.9 years, 164.4 ± 6.1 cm, and 64.9 ± 12.1
kg, respectively. Lumbar spine BMD and BMD at the femoral neck, Ward's area, and trochanter were significantly correlated
with large SEEs (r = 0.59–0.65; SEE = 0.09–0.11). No positive correlation with age and BMD at any site was seen in this population
but a significant negative correlation with age was seen in the proximal femur beginning at age 30. Twenty to 24% of the 20–29-year-olds
exhibited a difference in z-scores of greater than 1 between the spine and sites in the proximal femur. This percentage increased
to 32–46% in the 30–45-year-olds but the nature of the observed differences changed. The differences in spine and proximal
femoral z-scores that are seen in the older age group appear to be the result of the earlier onset of bone loss in the proximal
femur rather than an initial difference in peak bone mass which has been maintained.

Lifetime occupational and leisure time activities were assessed by a questionnaire in order to evaluate their relationship
to bone mass measurements and biochemical markers of bone metabolism in a population of 61 women and 61 men, randomly selected
from a Swedish population register, to represent ages between 22 and 85 years. We also considered possible confounders by
using questions about smoking habits, milk consumption, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and menopausal age. Bone mineral
density (BMD) and bone mineral content (bone mass, BMC) of the total body, lumbar spine, and proximal femur (neck, trochanter,
Ward's triangle) were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and BMD of the forearm with single energy X-ray
absorptiometry (SXA). In addition, both DXA and SXA provided information on bone area. Quantitative ultrasound measurements
(QUS) at the heel were performed to assess the speed of sound (SOS) and broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA). Fasting blood
samples were analyzed for biochemical markers of bone metabolism as well as parathyroid hormone (PTH) and total serum calcium.
After adjustment for confounding factors, neither BMD nor QUS measurements were consistently related to lifetime leisure time
or occupational activities; nor were there any consistent patterns relating biochemical markers of bone metabolism to bone
mass measurements. However, physical activity seemed to influence bone mass, area, and width more than density. In men, high
levels of leisure time activity were associated with raised values for lumbar spine area (6.2%) and width (3.3%) as well as
for femoral neck area (5.5%) compared with their low activity counterpart. Men exposed to high levels of occupational activity
demonstrated lower lumbar spine BMD (10.9%) and area (5.3%) than men with low activity levels. Within an unselected Swedish
population, estimation of lifetime occupational and sport activities as well as bedrest, using a questionnaire, demonstrated
no major effects on bone density. However, the association between high levels of lifetime activity and raised values for
bone mass, area, and width indicate that geometrical changes in bone may provide better estimations of mechanically induced
bone strength than bone density, at least in men.

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.

Quantitative ultrasound (US) measurements have been shown to be a new technique assessing bone status. This study aimed to
assess a new US instrument, the DBM Sonic 1200? (IGEA) which permits the measurement of the speed of sound in the proximal
phalanges (SOSp) of the hand. The results obtained were compared with DXA (SOPHOS) and US measurements at the calcaneus (Achilles?
LUNAR). The in vivo precision expressed by coefficient of variation was 0.91%. Ultrasound measurements of phalanges were significantly correlated
with BMD in the entire group of 90 subjects: osteoporotic patients (n = 47) and controls (n = 43) (r = 0.44, femoral neck
and 0.45, lumbar spine, P < 0.01). A significant correlation was also found in the control group (r = 0.33, lumbar spine and 0.38, femoral neck, P < 0.05) but not in the osteoporotic group (r = 0.3, lumbar spine and 0.17, femoral neck, P > 0.05). Mean values for 31 postmenopausal, osteoporotic women and age-matched controls showed a significant decrease in
US measurements at the phalanges (P < 0.05) and the calcaneus (P < 0.01) as well as bone mineral density (BMD) at the spine and femoral neck (P < 0.01) in the osteoporotic group. A decision threshold for a sensitivity of 80% for osteoporotic fractures resulted in a
specificity value of only 37% for SOSp, between 53 to 65% for calcaneus US measurements and 45 to 56% for BMD. The Z score,
the odds ratio, the ROC curves, and areas under the curves plotted for the subgroup of 31 fractures and their healthy controls
showed poorer values for SOSp than BMD and calcaneus US measurements. In conclusion, US measurements of phalanges seem to
be less efficient than calcaneus US and BMD measurements to distinguish osteoporotic from healthy women. Other studies and
also prospective studies are required to assess the interest in fracture risk assessment.

This study examined bone density among postmenopausal Buddhist nuns and female religious followers of Buddhism in southern
Taiwan and related the measurements to subject characteristics including age, body mass, physical activity, nutrient intake,
and vegetarian practice. A total of 258 postmenopausal Taiwanese vegetarian women participated in the study. Lumbar spine
and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) were measured using dual-photon absorptimetry. BMD measurements were analyzed
first as quantitative outcomes in multiple regression analyses and next as indicators of osteopenia status in logistic regression
analyses. Among the independent variables examined, age inversely and body mass index positively correlated with both the
spine and femoral neck BMD measurements. They were also significant predictors of the osteopenia status. Energy intake from
protein was a significant correlate of lumbar spine BMD only. Other nutrients, including calcium and energy intake from nonprotein
sources, did not correlate significantly with the two bone density parameters. Long-term practitioners of vegan vegetarian
were found to be at a higher risk of exceeding lumbar spine fracture threshold (adjusted odds ratio = 2.48, 95% confidence
interval = 1.03–5.96) and of being classified as having osteopenia of the femoral neck (3.94, 1.21–12.82). Identification
of effective nutrition supplements may be necessary to improve BMD levels and to reduce the risk of osteoporosis among long-term
female vegetarians.

Low Bone Mass Density at Multiple Skeletal Sites, Including the Appendicular Skeleton in Amenorrheic Runners 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
U. Pettersson B.-M. Stålnacke G.-M. Ahlénius K. Henriksson-Larsén R. Lorentzon 《Calcified tissue international》1999,64(2):117-125
The aim of this study was to investigate any difference in bone mass at different sites between female long-distance runners
with amenorrhea and those with eumenorrhea. We compared 10 amenorrheic and 10 eumenorrheic athletes to determine whether athletes
with amenorrhea have lower BMD in multiple skeletal regions, including weight-bearing lower limbs. The amenorrheic group had
experienced menstrual dysfunction ranging from 3 to 43 months. As a further control group, 16 eumenorrheic soccer players
were compared with the former two running groups regarding their BMD measurements. The two groups were matched for age, height,
and amount of training. Areal bone mineral density (BMD) was measured and was found to be significantly lower in the total
body, humerus, spine, lumbar spine, pelvis, femoral neck, trochanter, total femur, femur diaphysis, tibia diaphysis and in
the nonweight-bearing head of the femur in the amenorrheic group. Body weight, BMI, fat mass, and body fat percent were significantly
lower in the amenorrheic group. The differences in the BMD of the head, humerus, femoral neck, total femur, femur diaphysis,
and tibia diaphysis disappeared when adjusted for body weight. Compared with the soccer group, the amenorrheic subjects had
significantly lower BMD values at all sites except for the head, Ward's triangle, and femur diaphysis. Blood samples were
obtained in the two running groups for analysis of osteocalcin, carboxy terminal telopeptide (ICTP), procollagen I (PICP),
and estradiol. There were no significant differences between the groups but there was a strong tendency towards a lower estradiol
level and a higher osteocalcin level in the amenorrheic group. A free estradiol index (FE2) was derived as the ratio of estradiol to sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and was significantly lower in the amenorrheic
group. No difference in their daily intake of total energy, protein, carbohydrates, fiber, calcium, and vitamin D was observed.
However, both groups showed a surprisingly low energy intake in relation to their training regimens. Stepwise regression analyses
revealed that weight was the best predictor of spine BMD in both groups. Estradiol and FE2 were significant predictors of the BMD of the proximal femur in the eumenorrheic group, but did not predict any BMD site
in the amenorrheic group. In conclusion, amenorrhea in athletic women affects trabecular and cortical bone in both axial and
appendicular skeleton. However, some of the discrepancy can be explained by a lower body weight. Physical weight-bearing activity
does not seem to completely compensate for the side effects of reduced estrogen levels even in weight-bearing bones in the
lower extremity and spine.

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.

Bone mineral density (BMD) and soft tissue composition were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) 3–4 years
apart in 273 men and women aged 23–90. We found different rates of BMD loss in different skeletal regions. There were also
different rates of BMD loss in different regions within the hip. Average rates of loss for male subjects 50 years of age and
above for BMD total body were 0.1%/year and for femoral neck 1.5%/year, whereas lumbar spine (L2–L4) increased by 0.4%/year.
Average rates of loss for female subjects 50 years of age and above for BMD total body were 0.0%/year, femoral neck 0.9%/year,
and lumbar spine (L2–L4) 0.1%/year.

Absence of Linkage for Bone Mineral Density to Chromosome 12q12-14 in the Region of the Vitamin D Receptor Gene 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Zee RY Myers RH Hannan MT Wilson PW Ordovas JM Schaefer EJ Lindpaintner K Kiel DP 《Calcified tissue international》2000,67(6):434-439
Polymorphisms in the region of the gene for the vitamin D receptor (VDR) (chromosome 12q12-14) have been associated with
differences in bone mineral density (BMD) in some studies but not in others. Because linkage analysis assesses allele sharing
identical-by-descent among relatives instead of the association of a particular allele of an anonymous marker, we have performed
a linkage study for bone BMD using microsatellite markers flanking the VDR locus. The present study explores whether or not relatives who share the chromosomal region containing the VDR gene have
more similar bone density. Participants in the Framingham Osteoporosis Study (aged 37–89 years) who had undergone BMD testing
were used to test for concordance of genotype with phenotype in the hip (femoral neck, Ward's area, trochanter) and lumbar
spine (L2-L4) with adjustment for covariates. Multipoint quantitative trait linkage analysis using variance components methods
was conducted with microsatellite markers flanking the VDR locus (GATA91H06, GATA5A09, GGAT2G06) in 332 extended families containing 1062 individuals with both bone density measures and marker data. In addition, quantitative
trait sib-pair linkage analysis, with a marker (AFM345xf1) in close proximity to the VDR locus, was performed in a second sample of 169 sibships (n = 413), comprising 284 full-sib pairs. Neither analysis revealed
evidence for linkage of this region to femoral neck, Ward's area, lumbar spine, and trochanter in age or sex BMI, and height-adjusted
bone density measures. Additional adjustment for alcohol intake, caffeine consumption, smoking status, and estrogen supplement
(female only) did not alter the results. The present study could not demonstrate linkage of BMD to chromosome 12q12-14. These
findings suggest that neither the VDR gene nor other genes at this locus are likely to have a substantial impact upon bone
density.

Active hyperthyroidism is associated with reduced bone mass. Nevertheless, not all patients show the same risk for developing
osteoporosis. Our aim was to analyze some clinical and biochemical potential predictors of low bone mass in hyperthyroid patients.
We studied 127 consecutive hyperthyroid patients (110 females, 17 males; aged 42 ± 16 years). Bone mineral density (BMD) was
measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at lumbar spine (LS; L2–L4) and femoral neck (FN). Data were expressed as g/cm2 and T-score. Patients were placed into two groups based on recent WHO criteria: Group A, no osteoporosis (n = 98); and group
B, lumbar or femoral osteoporosis (n = 29). Study protocol included evaluation of osteoporosis risk factors, anthropometrical
variables, thyroid function, and bone turnover markers. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) plots for the precision of
bone markers and multivariate analysis for the prediction of BMD and osteoporosis were performed. Group B showed greater age
and proportion of menopausal females; lower weight, height, and calcium intake; longer duration of menopause; and greater
levels of total and bone alkaline phosphatase and of urine hydroxyproline. No differences in thyroid function, osteocalcin,
tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, and type I collagen C-telopeptide (ICTP) were found. The best predictive model accounted
for 46% and 62% of the variability of lumbar and femoral BMD respectively and correctly classified 89% of the osteoporotic
hyperthyroid patients. No significant difference in ROC plots was observed. It is concluded that hyperthyroid patients with
lumbar or femoral osteoporosis show a typical clinical and biochemical profile illustrating that the relationship between
BMD and bone markers is better in high turnover states. Classical bone turnover markers show high performance in the evaluation
of hyperthyroid bone disease.

Lifestyle Determinants of Bone Mineral: A Comparison Between Prepubertal Asian- and Caucasian-Canadian Boys and Girls 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
The purpose of this study was to examine the difference in lifestyle and morphometric factors that affect bone mineral and
the attainment of peak bone mass in 168 healthy Asian (n = 58) and Caucasian (n = 110) Canadian, prepubertal girls and boys
(mean age 8.9 ± 0.7) living in close geographical proximity. DXA (Hologic 4500) scans of the proximal femur (with regions),
lumbar spine, and total body (TB) were acquired. We report areal bone mineral densities (aBMD g/cm2) at all sites and estimated volumetric density (νBMD, g/cm3) at the femoral neck. Dietary calcium, physical activity, and maturity were estimated by questionnaire. Of these prepubertal
children, all of the boys and 89% of the girls were Tanner stage 1. A 2 × 2 ANOVA demonstrated no difference between ethnicities
for height, weight, body fat, or bone mineral free lean mass. Asian children consumed significantly less dietary calcium (35%)
on average and were significantly less active (15%) than their Caucasian counterparts (P < 0.001). There were significant ethnicity main effects for femoral neck bone mineral content (BMC) and αBMD (both P < 0.001) and significant sex by ethnicity interactions (P < 0.01). The Asian boys had significantly lower femoral neck BMC (11%), aBMD (8%), and νBMD (4.4%). At the femoral neck, BMFL mass, sex, and physical activity explained 37% of the total variance
in aBMD (P < 0.05). In summary, this study demonstrated differences in modifiable lifestyle factors and femoral neck bone mineral between
Asian and Caucasian boys.

The object of this study was to determine the effectiveness of calcaneal ultrasonometry in the prediction of bone mineral
changes in the lumbar spine and femoral neck in response to treatment of osteoporosis. There were 673 women in the study who
had one or more follow-up measurements between 1 and 4 years after the initial baseline determination for a total of 881 same-day
measurements of the calcaneus, spine, and femur. The LUNAR Achilles and LUNAR DPX (LUNAR Corporation, Madison, WI) were used.
Patients were divided into three treatment time groups: Group 1, 1–<2 years, n = 461; Group 2, 2–<3 years, n = 278; Group
3, 3–<4 years, n = 142. There were significant increases in the bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, femoral neck,
and in the broadband ultrasonic attenuation (BUA) of the calcaneus for the three groups. In contrast, a significant decrease
in speed of sound (SOS) was obtained in these time frames and the stiffness index remained unchanged. Spearmen correlations
showed an inverse relationship between the percent changes in SOS and BUA, the reasons for which are speculative. Correlations
between the percent changes in calcaneal parameters and the BMDs of the lumbar spine and femoral neck were weak, whether significant
or not, rho varying from −0.12 to 0.20. There was a subset of 371 patient measurements that registered BMD increases in both
the lumbar spine and femoral neck. This was considered to be an objective indication of adequate compliance with prescribed
treatment. Analysis of this subset yielded parameter correlations similar to those of the entire group. It is concluded that
changes in the calcaneal ultrasound parameters in response to treatment of osteoporosis are not a reflection of mineral changes
occurring in the lumbar spine and femoral neck in a given individual, and in this regard, calcaneal ultrasonometry is not
a substitute for direct-site dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurement of the lumbar spine and femur.

We evaluated bone mineral density (BMD), hormone concentrations and menstrual cycle status to test the hypothesis that greater
variations in reproductive hormones and menstrual bleeding patterns in mid-aged women might engender an environment permissive
for less bone. We studied 2336 women, aged 42–52 years, from the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN) who self-identified
as African-American (28.2%), Caucasian (49.9%), Japanese (10.5%) or Chinese (11.4%). Outcome measures were lumbar spine, femoral
neck and total hip BMD by dual-energy X-ray densitometry (DXA). Explanatory variables were estradiol, testosterone, sex hormone
binding globulin (SHBG) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) from serum collected in the early follicular phase of the menstrual
cycle or menstrual status [premenopausal (menses in the 3 months prior to study entry without change in regularity) or early
perimenopause (menstrual bleeding in the 3 months prior to study entry but some change in the regularity of cycles)]. Total
testosterone and estradiol concentrations were indexed to SHBG for the Free Androgen Index (FAI) and the Free Estradiol Index
(FEI). Serum logFSH concentrations were inversely correlated with BMD (r = −10 for lumbar spine [95% confidence interval (CI): −0.13, −0.06] and r = −0.08 for femoral neck (95% CI: −0.11, −0.05). Lumbar spine BMD values were approximately 0.5% lower for each successive
FSH quartile. There were no significant associations of BMD with serum estradiol, total testosterone, FEI or FAI, respectively,
after adjusting for covariates. BMD tended to be lower (p values = 0.009 to 0.06, depending upon the skeletal site) in women classified as perimenopausal versus premenopausal, after
adjusting for covariates. Serum FSH but not serum estradiol, testosterone or SHBG were significantly associated with BMD in
a multiethnic population of women classified as pre- versus perimenopausal, supporting the hypothesis that alterations in
hormone environment are associated with BMD differences prior to the final menstrual period.

Correlation of Bone Density to Strength and Physical Activity in Young Men with a Low or Moderate Level of Physical Activity 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship among bone mineral density (BMD), physical activity, muscle
strength, and body constitution, in young men with a low or moderate level of physical exercise. Another aim was to investigate
whether the head is unaffected by physical activity. The subjects consisted of 33 Caucasian healthy men, mean age 24.8 ± 2.3
years. BMDs of the total body, lumbar spine (L2-L4), femoral neck, Ward's triangle and trochanter, humerus, and head were
measured using dual-energy-X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Bivariate correlations were measured among the different BMD sites
and age, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), fat mass, lean body mass, amount of physical activity (hours/week), hamstrings
strength, and quadriceps strength. Significant predictors were found for all BMD sites except the head. Using all these variables,
only 6% of the variation in BMD of the head could be explained, whereas 46% (total body), 31% (humerus), 17% (lumbar spine),
38% (femoral neck, Ward's), and 41% could be explained for the trochanter. Physical activity and muscle strength were found
to be independent significant predictors of BMD of the total body and the sites at the proximal femur. These results suggest
that at the time of peak bone mass attainment, physical activity is an important predictor of the clinically relevant proximal
femur in young men with a low or moderate level of physical activity. Furthermore, since head BMD was not related to the level
of physical activity, we suggest that head BMD may be used as an internal standard, to control for selection bias, in studies
investigating the effect of physical activity on bone mass.
