Abstract
Phosphate is a key component of mineralized tissues and is also part of many organic compounds. Phosphorus homeostasis depends especially upon intestinal absorption, and renal excretion, which are regulated by various hormones, such as PTH, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and fibroblast growth factor 23. In this review we provide an update of several genetic disorders that affect phosphate transporters through cell membranes or the phosphate-regulating hormones, and, consequently, result in hypophosphatemia.

Abstract
Osteopetrosis refers to a group of related rare bone diseases characterized by a high bone mass due to impaired bone resorption by osteoclasts. Despite the high bone mass, skeletal strength is compromised and the risk of fracture is high, particularly in the long bones. Osteopetrosis was classically categorized by inheritance pattern into autosomal recessive forms (ARO), which are severe and diagnosed within the first years of life, an intermediate form and an autosomal dominant (ADO) form; the latter with variable clinical severity and typically diagnosed during adolescence or in young adulthood. Subsequently, the AD form was shown to be a result of mutations in the gene CLCN7 encoding for the ClC-7 chloride channel). Traditionally, the diagnosis of osteopetrosis was made on radiograph appearance alone, but recent molecular and genetic advances have enabled a greater fidelity in classification of osteopetrosis subtypes. In the more severe ARO forms (e.g., malignant infantile osteopetrosis MIOP) typical clinical features have severe consequences and often result in death in early childhood. Major complications of ADO are atypical fractures with delay or failure of repair and challenge in orthopedic management. Bone marrow failure, dental abscess, deafness and visual loss are often underestimated and neglected in relation with lack of awareness and expertise. Accordingly, the care of adult patients with osteopetrosis requires a multidisciplinary approach ideally in specialized centers. Apart from hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in certain infantile forms, the treatment of patients with osteopetrosis, has not been standardized and remains supportive. Further clinical studies are needed to improve our knowledge of the natural history, optimum management and impact of osteopetrosis on the lives of patients living with the disorder.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by hypophosphatemia, bone mineralization disorders with increased risk of fragility fractures, muscle pain, and progressive weakness. TIO has been associated with increased production of the phosphaturic hormone Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) usually by mesenchymal tumors of soft tissue or bone (Phosphaturic Mesenchymal Tumors-PMTs). In rare cases TIO may be observed in association with other malignancies. We report the case of a 66-year-old woman with an occasional diagnosis of both a PMT and an ovarian cancer during the evaluation of TIO. We also systematically review the literature to discover possible correlations between osteomalacia, FGF23 production, and ovarian cancer. Four studies were eligible for the analysis. Two case reports described an association between TIO development and ovarian cancer, whereas the two case-control studies hypothesized a possible correlation between FGF/FGF receptor axis and cancer development. Although it does not provide conclusive evidence regarding the association between TIO and ovarian cancer, this case report highlights the possibility that in the diagnostic workup of suspected TIO, both FGF23-secreting tumors distinct from PMT and tumors unrelated to the clinical presentation of TIO could be identified. This information is important for guiding successful tumor staging and determining the necessity for surgical intervention and/or eventual adjuvant therapy.

Abstract
Rickets results from impaired mineralization of growing bone due to alterations in calcium and phosphate homeostasis. Clinical signs of rickets are related to the age of the patient, the duration of the disease, and the underlying disorder. The most common signs of rickets are swelling of the wrists, knees or ankles, bowing of the legs (knock-knees, outward bowing, or both) and inability to walk. However, clinical features alone cannot differentiate between the various forms of rickets. Rickets includes a heterogeneous group of acquired and inherited diseases. Nutritional rickets is due to a deficiency of vitamin D, dietary calcium or phosphate. Mutations in genes responsible for vitamin D metabolism or function, the production or breakdown of fibroblast growth factor 23, renal phosphate regulation, or bone mineralization can lead to the hereditary form of rickets. This position paper reviews the relevant literature and presents the expertise of the Bone and Mineral Metabolism Group of the Italian Society of Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetology (SIEDP). The aim of this document is to provide practical guidance to specialists and healthcare professionals on the main criteria for diagnosis, treatment, and management of patients with rickets. The various forms of rickets are discussed, and detailed references for the discussion of each form are provided. Algorithms to guide the diagnostic approach and recommendations to manage patients with rare forms of hereditary rickets are proposed.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), also known as oncogenic osteomalacia, is very rare, with about 1000 reported cases globally. Removing most TIO culprit tumors requires the evaluation and intervention of orthopedic doctors. However, orthopedic doctors often have a poor understanding of the optical treatment of TIO due to its rarity. In addition, most TIO patients lack specific clinical manifestations. Also, the clinical localization and qualitative diagnosis of TIO are difficult and thus can easily be misdiagnosed and mistreated. Furthermore, the true incidence rate of TIO may be underestimated. Although many breakthroughs have been made in exploring the pathogenesis, clinical diagnosis, and treatment of TIO, rational and standardized orthopedic surgical treatment experience summary and sorting for TIO patients are lacking. In this article, the recent experience and progress in the field of orthopedic surgical treatment for TIO globally have been summarized, providing a theoretical basis and new clinical practice guidance for the rational treatment of TIO patients.

Abstract
The circadian clock is an endogenous biochemical timing system that coordinates the physiology and behavior of organisms to earth's ∼24-hour circadian day/night cycle. The central circadian clock synchronized by environmental cues hierarchically entrains peripheral clocks throughout the body. The circadian system modulates a wide variety of metabolic signaling pathways to maintain whole-body metabolic homeostasis in mammals under changing environmental conditions. Endocrine fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), namely FGF15/19, FGF21, and FGF23, play an important role in regulating systemic metabolism of bile acids, lipids, glucose, proteins, and minerals. Recent evidence indicates that endocrine FGFs function as nutrient sensors that mediate multifactorial interactions between peripheral clocks and energy homeostasis by regulating the expression of metabolic enzymes and hormones. Circadian disruption induced by environmental stressors or genetic ablation is associated with metabolic dysfunction and diurnal disturbances in FGF signaling pathways that contribute to the pathogenesis of metabolic diseases. Time-restricted feeding strengthens the circadian pattern of metabolic signals to improve metabolic health and prevent against metabolic diseases. Chronotherapy, the strategic timing of medication administration to maximize beneficial effects and minimize toxic effects, can provide novel insights into linking biologic rhythms to drug metabolism and toxicity within the therapeutical regimens of diseases. Here we review the circadian regulation of endocrine FGF signaling in whole-body metabolism and the potential effect of circadian dysfunction on the pathogenesis and development of metabolic diseases. We also discuss the potential of chrononutrition and chronotherapy for informing the development of timing interventions with endocrine FGFs to optimize whole-body metabolism in humans. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The circadian timing system governs physiological, metabolic, and behavioral functions in living organisms. The endocrine fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family (FGF15/19, FGF21, and FGF23) plays an important role in regulating energy and mineral metabolism. Endocrine FGFs function as nutrient sensors that mediate multifactorial interactions between circadian clocks and metabolic homeostasis. Chronic disruption of circadian rhythms increases the risk of metabolic diseases. Chronological interventions such as chrononutrition and chronotherapy provide insights into linking biological rhythms to disease prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by mesenchymal tumors that secrete fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Patients present with progressive bone pain, muscle weakness, and fragility fractures. TIO is characterized by hypophosphatemia, excess renal phosphate excretion, and low/inappropriately normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2 D) levels. Rarity and enigmatic clinical presentation of TIO contribute to limited awareness among the medical community. Accordingly, appropriate diagnostic tests may not be requested, leading to delayed diagnosis and poorer patient outcomes. We have developed a global guidance document to improve the knowledge of TIO in the medical community, enabling the recognition of patients with TIO and appropriate referral. We provide recommendations aiding diagnosis, referral, and treatment, helping promote a global standard of patient management. We reviewed the literature and conducted a three-round Delphi survey of TIO experts. Statements were drafted based on published evidence and expert opinions (≥70% consensus required for final recommendations). Serum phosphate should be measured in patients presenting with chronic muscle pain or weakness, fragility fractures, or bone pain. Physical examination should establish features of myopathy and identify masses that could be causative tumors. Priority laboratory evaluations should include urine/serum phosphate and creatinine to assess renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate and TmP/GFR, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25(OH)2 D, and FGF23. Patients with the clinical/biochemical suspicion of TIO should be referred to a specialist for diagnosis confirmation, and functional imaging should be used to localize causative tumor(s). Recommended treatment is tumor resection or, with unresectable/unidentifiable tumors, phosphate salts plus active vitamin D, or burosumab.

Bone Rep 2022; 17:101605. [PMID: 35899095 PMCID: PMC9309659 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2022.101605] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2022] [Revised: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Epidermal Nevus Syndrome (ENS), also known as Cutaneous Skeletal Hypophosphatemia Syndrome or Linear Sebaceous Nevus Syndrome, is caused by a mosaic somatic mutation of RAS (Rat Sarcoma genes) which leads to abnormally elevated levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). FGF23 is a major regulator in phosphate homeostasis. There are multiple disorders, along with Epidermal Nevus Syndrome (ENS), that result in unusually high circulating levels of FGF23. This increase ultimately leads to renal phosphate wasting and reduced levels of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D. Across these disorders, the clinical symptoms are similar and often include osteomalacia (hypophosphatemic rickets in children), muscle weakness, fatigue, joint deformities, bone pain, and fractures. Burosumab (KRN23), is an IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds to the FGF23 receptor and inhibits the activity of FGF23. This leads to an increase in serum phosphate levels. Burosumab emerged as a potential therapy in FGF23 overactivity disorders. Burosumab was successful in the treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) and is now FDA-approved for its treatment. Studies have indicated that Burosumab therapy in subjects with XLH consistently increases and sustains serum phosphorus levels and tubular reabsorption of phosphate without a major impact on urine calcium levels or vitamin D metabolism. We studied the effect of Burosumab treatment in a single pediatric patient with Epidermal Nevus Syndrome. Serum phosphorus rose gradually as we titrated the dose of Burosumab upwards. During treatment, a persistent elevation of parathyroid hormone levels was noted along with a persistent elevation of serum calcium. We presumed the patient had tertiary hyperparathyroidism. However, after the removal of three parathyroid glands, the pathology came back with a single enlarged parathyroid adenoma. Subsequently, his calcium and PTH, and phosphorus levels stabilized while taking only Burosumab. ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04320316. Burosumab was superior to conventional therapy in our subject with ENS. The subject had persistent hyperparathyroidism during treatment. Hyperparathyroidism corrected with removal of parathyroid adenoma

Abstract
The physiological process of biomineralization is complex and deviation from it leads to a variety of diseases. Progress in the past 10 years has enhanced understanding of the genetic, molecular and cellular pathophysiology underlying these disorders; sometimes, this knowledge has both facilitated restoration of health and clarified the very nature of biomineralization as it occurs in humans. In this Review, we consider the principal regulators of mineralization and crystallization, and how dysregulation of these processes can lead to human disease. The knowledge acquired to date and gaps still to be filled are highlighted. The disorders of mineralization discussed comprise a broad spectrum of conditions that encompass bone disorders associated with alterations of mineral quantity and quality, as well as disorders of extraskeletal mineralization (hyperphosphataemic familial tumoural calcinosis). Included are disorders of alkaline phosphatase (hypophosphatasia) and phosphate homeostasis (X-linked hypophosphataemic rickets, fluorosis, rickets and osteomalacia). Furthermore, crystallopathies are covered as well as arterial and renal calcification. This Review discusses the current knowledge of biomineralization derived from basic and clinical research and points to future studies that will lead to new therapeutic approaches for biomineralization disorders.

Abstract
The fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family is composed of 18 secreted signaling proteins consisting of canonical FGFs and endocrine FGFs that activate four receptor tyrosine kinases (FGFRs 1-4) and four intracellular proteins (intracellular FGFs or iFGFs) that primarily function to regulate the activity of voltage-gated sodium channels and other molecules. The canonical FGFs, endocrine FGFs, and iFGFs have been reviewed extensively by us and others. In this review, we briefly summarize past reviews and then focus on new developments in the FGF field since our last review in 2015. Some of the highlights in the past 6 years include the use of optogenetic tools, viral vectors, and inducible transgenes to experimentally modulate FGF signaling, the clinical use of small molecule FGFR inhibitors, an expanded understanding of endocrine FGF signaling, functions for FGF signaling in stem cell pluripotency and differentiation, roles for FGF signaling in tissue homeostasis and regeneration, a continuing elaboration of mechanisms of FGF signaling in development, and an expanding appreciation of roles for FGF signaling in neuropsychiatric diseases.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the association between metabolic abnormalities and cardiovascular risk factors in patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism (HPP). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients 18 years and older, glomerular filtration > 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 and no documented coronary artery disease were selected. Serum calcium, phosphorus, glucose, lipids, PTH, 25(OH)D and FGF23 were measured. Cardiovascular risk was estimated by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) calculator. Transthoracic echocardiogram and carotid ultrasound were performed to detect carotid plaques (CP), carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), cardiac valve calcification (CVC), and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). RESULTS Thirty-seven patients (94.6% female), aged 56.0 ± 13.5 years and HPP duration 7.0 (4.0; 11.3) years, were included. Fifteen were classified as low cardiovascular risk, 9 as intermediate risk, 9 as high risk and none as very high risk. The prevalence of CP, CVC and LVH was 24.3%, 24.3% and 13.5%, respectively. IMT values were within normal ranges in all cohort. FGF23 were not associated with CP, IMT, CVC or LVH. After logistic regression, phosphorus was the only significant metabolic variable impacting CVC in univariate analysis (OR 2.795; 95% CI 1.132-6.905; p = 0.026), as well as in the multivariate analysis (OR 3.572; 95% CI 1.094-11.665; p = 0.035). Analysis by ROC curve showed serum phosphorus > 5.05 mg/dL (AUC 0.748; CI 0.584-0.877; p = 0.05) as the best cutoff point associated with valve heart calcification (sensitivity 78%; negative predictive value 91.3%). CONCLUSION Hyperphosphatemia was associated with CVC in HPP patients. Further studies are needed to investigate whether the control of hyperphosphatemia may reduce cardiovascular risk in this population.

Abstract
PURPOSE Tumor induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare disease of mineral metabolism, whose clinical picture is dominated by hypophosphatemia usually due to an excess of circulating FGF23 produced by small mesenchymal tumors. Data on the real prevalence of the disease are lacking, with the knowledge of the disease mainly relying on case reports and small case series. No estimate is available on the prevalence of uncured TIO. METHODS National multi-center, cross-sectional and retrospective study on persistent or recurrent cases of TIO followed in referral centers for bone diseases; systematic review of the published persistent and recurrent cases of TIO. Data from patients consecutively evaluated in referral Italian centers for bone diseases were collected; a PubMed search on persistent, recurrent and unoperable cases of TIO was carried out. RESULTS Sixteen patients (mean age at diagnosis 52.5 ± 10.6 years) with persistent (n = 6, 37,5%), recurrent (n = 7, 43.7%) or not operable (n = 3, 18.8%) TIO were described. Delay in diagnosis (2.5 ± 1.3 years) was demonstrated. All patients experienced fragility fractures or pseudofractures and disabling bone and muscle pain. BMD was significantly reduced (mean T-score -2.7 ± 1.7 and -2.7 ± 0.9 at lumbar spine and femoral neck, respectively). Fourteen patients were maintained under therapy with phosphate salts and calcitriol, while in 2 patients therapy with burosumab, an anti-FGF23 antibody, was commenced. CONCLUSION A significant number of patients with TIO remain either undiagnosed for tumor localization or tumor recur or persist after surgery. These patients with active disease represent possible candidates for burosumab treatment.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH), the most common inherited form of rickets, is caused by a PHEX gene mutation that leads to excessive serum levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). This leads to clinical manifestations such as rickets, osteomalacia, pain, lower limb deformity and overall diminished quality of life. The overarching aims in the management of children with XLH are to improve quality of life by reducing overall burden of disease, optimise an individual's participation in daily activities and promote normal physical and psychological development. Burosumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting FGF23, has been shown to improve biochemistry, pain, function and radiological features of rickets in children with XLH and has transformed management of XLH around the world. Burosumab has been recently approved for clinical use in children with XLH in Australia. This manuscript outlines a clinical practice guideline for the use of burosumab in children with XLH to assist local clinicians, encourage consistency of management across Australia and suggest future directions for management and research. This guideline also strongly advocates for all patients with XLH to have multidisciplinary team involvement to ensure optimal care outcomes and highlights the need to consider other aspects of care for XLH in the era of burosumab, including transition to adult care and the effective coordination of care between local health-care providers and specialist services.

Abstract
End-stage renal disease is a major health problem with many complications. Previous studies emphasized the relationship of cardiovascular disease and mortality among these patients to dysregulated phosphate homeostasis. Even after successful renal transplantation, the risk is not eliminated. Several factors seem to interplay to regulate serum phosphorus levels after renal transplantation. Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) is a hormone with the major function of inhibiting the reabsorption of phosphate by the renal tubules. Parathormone reduces the reabsorption of phosphate from the proximal tubule of the kidney. The aim of our study was to explore the changes that occurred in FGF-23 and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels in a cohort of Egyptian patients undergoing renal transplantation and to examine the effect of these factors on posttransplant serum phosphorus levels. The study was carried out prospectively on 37 candidates for live-donor renal transplantation. Serum levels of calcium, phosphorus, iPTH, and FGF-23 were measured before and 6 months after renal transplantation. Statistically significant differences were detected in serum calcium, phosphorus, FGF-23, and iPTH before and 6 months after transplantation (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.001, and P < 0.001, respectively). The results also showed a statistically significant correlation between FGF-23 levels and phosphorus levels before transplantation. The interplay between FGF-23 and iPTH has an impact on posttransplant serum phosphorus levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by hypophosphatemia associated with elevated fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). TIO is primarily caused by benign mesenchymal tumors of the soft tissue and skeleton. Rarely, it is associated with a solid tumor or hematological malignancy. To date, no case of osteomalacia related to pancreatic cancer has been reported in the literature. CASE REPORT A 77-year-old woman was admitted to the rheumatology department (RD) of the Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital (France) for further evaluation of her hypophosphatemia. The patient reported bone pain, myalgia, and asthenia. Further laboratory tests revealed hyperphosphaturia, normocalcemia, low serum calcitriol, elevated serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and elevated plasma parathyroid hormone (PTH). A renal phosphate depletion disorder was suspected as an etiology for this hypophosphatemia. Finally, FGF23 levels were found to be significantly elevated, leading to a definitive diagnosis of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. CONCLUSION This is the first report of hypophosphatemic osteomalacia related to pancreatic cancer. Therefore, in the setting of hypophosphatemia associated with renal phosphate wasting and low calcitriol level, plasma FGF23 measurement should be considered.

Abstract
Because of their rarity, diseases characterized by chronic hypophosphatemia can be underrecognized and suboptimally managed, resulting in poor clinical outcomes. Moreover, serum phosphate may not be measured routinely in primary care practice. Authors participated in several working sessions to advance the understanding of phosphate homeostasis and the causes, consequences, and clinical implications of chronic hypophosphatemia. Phosphate levels are regulated from birth to adulthood. Dysregulation of phosphate homeostasis can result in hypophosphatemia, which becomes chronic if phosphate levels cannot be normalized. Chronic hypophosphatemia may be underrecognized as serum phosphate measurement is not always part of routine analysis in the primary care setting and results might be misinterpreted, for instance, due to age-specific differences not being accounted for and circadian variations. Clinical consequences of chronic hypophosphatemia involve disordered endocrine regulation, affect multiple organ systems, and vary depending on patient age and the underlying disorder. Signs and symptoms of chronic hypophosphatemic diseases that manifest during childhood or adolescence persist into adulthood if the disease is inadequately managed, resulting in an accumulation of clinical deficits and a progressive, debilitating impact on quality of life. Early identification and diagnosis of patients with chronic hypophosphatemia is crucial, and clinical management should be started as soon as possible to maximize the likelihood of improving health outcomes. Furthermore, in the absence of a universally accepted description for "chronic hypophosphatemia," a definition is proposed here that aims to raise awareness of these diseases, facilitate diagnosis, and guide optimal phosphate management strategies by improving monitoring and assessment of patient response to treatment. © 2021 The Authors.

Abstract
Here, we discuss the management of different forms of rickets, including new therapeutic approaches based on recent guidelines. Management includes close monitoring of growth, the degree of leg bowing, bone pain, serum phosphate, calcium, alkaline phosphatase as a surrogate marker of osteoblast activity and thus degree of rickets, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, and calciuria. An adequate calcium intake and normal 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels should be assured in all patients. Children with calcipenic rickets require the supplementation or pharmacological treatment with native or active vitamin D depending on the underlying pathophysiology. Treatment of phosphopenic rickets depends on the underlying pathophysiology. Fibroblast-growth factor 23 (FGF23)-associated hypophosphatemic rickets was historically treated with frequent doses of oral phosphate salts in combination with active vitamin D, whereas tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) should primarily undergo tumor resection, if possible. Burosumab, a fully humanized FGF23-antibody, was recently approved for treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) and TIO and shown to be superior for treatment of XLH compared to conventional treatment. Forms of hypophosphatemic rickets independent of FGF23 due to genetic defects of renal tubular phosphate reabsorption are treated with oral phosphate only, since they are associated with excessive 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D production. Finally, forms of hypophosphatemic rickets caused by Fanconi syndrome, such as nephropathic cystinosis and Dent disease require disease-specific treatment in addition to phosphate supplements and active vitamin D. Adjustment of medication should be done with consideration of treatment-associated side effects, including diarrhea, gastrointestinal discomfort, hypercalciuria, secondary hyperparathyroidism, and development of nephrocalcinosis or nephrolithiasis.

Abstract
Background Hypophosphatemic rickets is a rare, genetic syndrome with multisystem involvement. It causes skeletal abnormalities, painful enthesopathies, increased risk of fracture, and short stature; leading to a substantial burden of disease, disability, and worsening of quality of life. To improve health conditions of people living with this disease, it is essential to know its prevalence which is currently unknown in Colombia. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of hypophosphatemic rickets in Colombia by using a mathematical model and national statistic records. Methods We executed a model to estimate probabilities of transitions between health, disease, and death states (Markov chains). The model was fed with international prevalences taken from original studies (systematic review) and administrative records' data from SISPRO (a national health information system) using the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) E833 code, vital statistics, and census data. World Health Organization's (WHO) DISMOD II software was used to develop the model. Findings The estimated overall prevalence of hypophosphatemic rickets in Colombia in 2018 was 2·03 cases per 100 000 people (981 affected people), with a sensitive range of 1·97 to 2·09. The estimated prevalence by sex was 2·61 (645 people) and 1·43 (336 people) cases per 100 000 women and men, respectively. Interpretation Our overall estimated prevalence shows consistency with original international data. This is the first prevalence estimation of hypophosphatemic rickets in Colombia and will be relevant to support public health decisions for rare diseases and to provide a pre-test probability framework in clinical practice. DISMOD II and the model are useful tools to estimate the prevalence of rare and orphan diseases, when probabilistic studies cannot be carried out. There are limited bibliographic resources worldwide reporting prevalence values supported by original studies. Our study can be used as a cost-effective methodology reference in this regard, especially for Latin America. Funding Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical, as a donation.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are cell-signaling proteins with diverse functions in cell development, repair, and metabolism. The human FGF family consists of 22 structurally related members, which can be classified into three separate groups based on their action of mechanisms, namely: intracrine, paracrine/autocrine, and endocrine FGF subfamilies. FGF19, FGF21, and FGF23 belong to the hormone-like/endocrine FGF subfamily. These endocrine FGFs are mainly associated with the regulation of cell metabolic activities such as homeostasis of lipids, glucose, energy, bile acids, and minerals (phosphate/active vitamin D). Endocrine FGFs function through a unique protein family called klotho. Two members of this family, α-klotho, or β-klotho, act as main cofactors which can scaffold to tether FGF19/21/23 to their receptor(s) (FGFRs) to form an active complex. There are ongoing studies pertaining to the structure and mechanism of these individual ternary complexes. These studies aim to provide potential insights into the physiological and pathophysiological roles and therapeutic strategies for metabolic diseases. Herein, we provide a comprehensive review of the history, structure–function relationship(s), downstream signaling, physiological roles, and future perspectives on endocrine FGFs.

Abstract
Patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), an acquired paraneoplastic condition characterized by osteomalacia due to hypophosphatemia, exhibit a similar clinical picture to those with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia (XLH). The human monoclonal anti-fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) antibody burosumab (KRN23) increases serum phosphate and improves bone turnover, fracture healing, pain, and physical function in XLH patients by inhibiting circulating FGF23; thus, burosumab is expected to be an effective treatment for TIO. We report here an interim analysis of a multicenter, open-label, intraindividual dose-adjustment study of burosumab (0.3 to 2.0 mg/kg every 4 weeks) in Japanese and Korean TIO patients. The primary endpoint was the fasting serum phosphate level at each visit. Key secondary endpoints were changes over time in bone biomarkers, pharmacodynamic markers, bone histomorphometric parameters, motor function, and patient-reported outcomes. Safety was assessed based on treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Thirteen patients received burosumab treatment, of whom 4 underwent bone biopsy. The mean dose after week 112 was approximately 1.0 mg/kg. After the first burosumab administration, mean serum phosphate levels increased and remained above the lower limit of normal and in the normal range from weeks 14 to 112. Bone biomarkers initially increased, reaching maximum values at week 16 or 24, and then gradually decreased. After burosumab treatment, patients were able to walk further (evaluated by the 6-minute walk test), reported decreased pain levels, and showed a tendency toward healing of baseline fractures and pseudofractures. Two patients discontinued, one each due to disease progression and consent withdrawal. Burosumab was generally well tolerated, with no treatment-related TEAEs of grade ≥3 and no treatment-related serious AEs. In conclusion, the interim results of this first study of burosumab to treat TIO patients indicate that this drug has the potential to provide clinical benefit for patients with unresectable tumors. The full study results are eagerly anticipated. © 2020 The Authors.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has been described as an important regulator of mineral homeostasis, but has lately also been linked to iron deficiency, inflammation, and erythropoiesis. FGF23 is essential for the maintenance of phosphate homeostasis in the body and activating mutations in the gene itself or inactivating mutations in its upstream regulators can result in severe chronic hypophosphatemia, where an unbalanced mineral homeostasis often leads to rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults. FGF23 can be regulated by changes in transcriptional activity or by changes at the post-translational level. The balance between O-glycosylation and phosphorylation is an important determinant of how much active intact or inactive cleaved FGF23 will be released in the circulation. In the past years, it has become evident that iron deficiency and inflammation regulate FGF23 in a way that is not associated with its classical role in mineral metabolism. These conditions will not only result in an upregulation of FGF23 transcription, but also in increased cleavage, leaving the levels of active intact FGF23 unchanged. The exact mechanisms behind and function of this process are still unclear. However, a deeper understanding of FGF23 regulation in both the classical and non-classical way is important to develop better treatment options for diseases associated with disturbed FGF23 biology. In this review, we describe how the currently known upstream regulators of FGF23 change FGF23 transcription and affect its post-translational modifications at the molecular level.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare, hereditary, progressive musculoskeletal disease that often causes pain and short stature, as well as decreased physical function, mobility, and quality of life. Hypophosphatemia in XLH is caused by loss of function mutations in the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene, resulting in excess levels of the phosphate-regulating hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), which leads to renal phosphate wasting and decreased serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D production. Historically, treatment options were limited to oral phosphate and active vitamin D analogues (conventional management) dosed several times daily in an attempt to improve skeletal mineralization by increasing serum phosphorus. The recent approval of burosumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody to FGF23, has provided a new, targeted treatment option for patients with XLH. This review summarizes our current understanding of XLH, the safety and efficacy of conventional management and burosumab, existing recommendations for managing patients, and unanswered questions in the field.

Abstract
The Third International Conference on Controversies in Vitamin D was held in Gubbio, Italy, September 10–13, 2019. The conference was held as a follow‐up to previous meetings held in 2017 and 2018 to address topics of controversy in vitamin D research. The specific topics were selected by the steering committee of the conference and based upon areas that remain controversial from the preceding conferences. Other topics were selected anew that reflect specific topics that have surfaced since the last international conference. Consensus was achieved after formal presentations and open discussions among experts. As will be detailed in this article, consensus was achieved with regard to the following: the importance and prevalence of nutritional rickets, amounts of vitamin D that are typically generated by sun exposure, worldwide prevalence of vitamin D deficiency, the importance of circulating concentrations of 25OHD as the best index of vitamin D stores, definitions and thresholds of vitamin D deficiency, and efficacy of vitamin D analogues in the treatment of psoriasis. Areas of uncertainly and controversy include the following: daily doses of vitamin D needed to maintain a normal level of 25OHD in the general population, recommendations for supplementation in patients with metabolic bone diseases, cutaneous production of vitamin D by UVB exposure, hepatic regulation of 25OHD metabolites, definition of vitamin D excess, vitamin D deficiency in acute illness, vitamin D requirements during reproduction, potential for a broad spectrum of cellular and organ activities under the influence of the vitamin D receptor, and potential links between vitamin D and major human diseases. With specific regard to the latter area, the proceedings of the conference led to recommendations for areas in need of further investigation through appropriately designed intervention trials. © 2020 The Authors.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The goal of this review is to give an overview of diagnosis and up-to-date management of major pediatric metabolic bone diseases that are associated with bone fragility, including nutritional rickets, hypophosphatemic rickets, osteogenesis imperfecta, Ehlers--Danlos syndrome, Marfan's syndrome, hypophosphatasia, osteopetrosis and skeletal fluorosis. RECENT FINDINGS During the past decade, a number of advanced treatment options have been introduced and shown to be an effective treatment in many metabolic bone disorders, such as burosumab for hypophosphatemic rickets and asfotase alfa for hypophosphatasia. On the other hand, other disorders, such as nutritional rickets and skeletal fluorosis continue to be underrecognized in many regions of the world. Genetic disorders of collagen-elastin, such as osteogenesis imperfecta, Ehlers--Danlos syndrome and Marfan's syndrome are also associated with skeletal fragility, which can be misdiagnosed as caused by non-accidental trauma/child abuse. SUMMARY It is essential to provide early and accurate diagnosis and treatment for pediatric patients with metabolic bone disorders in order to maintain growth and development as well as prevent fractures and metabolic complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The goal of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of (i) bone and muscle tissue modifications pathophysiology in spinal cord injury (SCI), (ii) experimental data on the physiopathological mechanisms underpinning these modifications and their similarities with the aging process, and (iii) potential clinical implications in the management of the disabling sequelae of SCI. RECENT FINDINGS Several studies attempted to describe the biology underpinning the links between bone and muscle tissues in the setting of highly disabling conditions, such as osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and neurodegenerative disorders, although these bidirectional connections remain still unclear. SCI could be considered an in vivo paradigmatic model of the bone muscle interactions in unloading conditions that might be expanded in the field of neurodegenerative disorders or cancer studies. Future studies should take into consideration the newer insights into bone muscle crosstalk in order to develop multitargeted and therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Metabolic skeletal dysplasias comprise an extensive group of diseases capable of causing changes, usually progressive, in the bone and are due to hereditary disorders in many cases. The diagnosis and treatment of these diseases are not without difficulty, both because of their rarity and their possible confusion with more common diseases. A paradigmatic case of these metabolic skeletal dysplasias is X-linked hypophosphataemic rickets, which causes phosphaturia, a condition that alters the phosphate-calcium metabolism balance consequently causing, among other conditions, skeletal deformities and short stature. The genetic advances in recent years allow a much more accurate diagnosis of this disease when suspected, making differential diagnosis easier with similar entities but whose real causes are different. A better understanding of the phosphate-calcium metabolism allows us to replace the symptomatic treatment currently available with one that involves rebalancing the excess of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) by using monoclonal antibodies. In November 2018, a symposium sponsored by Kyowa Kirin Pharmaceuticals took place in Madrid, in which national and international experts addressed several aspects of these rare kidney diseases. Some topics addressed were the present and future genetic diagnosis, the use of multi-gene panels in renal or skeletal diseases, the role of animal models to better understand underlying skeletal changes, and the role of conventional radiology and surgery in the diagnosis and final treatment of bone deformities; all these without forgetting the important role of FGF23 and Klotho imbalances that result in the genetic change causing this disease. The optimization and limitations of conventional treatments currently available was also a topic addressed extensively, as well as the implications that new treatments against FGF23 could have in the future. This article is based on previously conducted studies and does not contain any new studies with human participants or animals performed by the author.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung
Die hereditären hypophosphatämischen Rachitiden (HR) sind eine genetisch und klinisch heterogene Gruppe von Erkrankungen, bedingt durch einen renal-tubulären Phosphatverlust und gekennzeichnet durch die Folgen des Verlustes an mineralisierter Knochensubstanz. Die klinischen Ausprägungen sind variabel. In der Kindheit dominieren Kleinwuchs und Beinfehlstellung durch die Verformungen der unteren Extremitäten infolge von Rachitis und Osteomalazie. Im Erwachsenenalter kommen oftmals Insuffizienzfrakturen, Bewegungseinschränkungen, Arthrosen und extraskelettale Verkalkungen hinzu. Die häufigste Form ist die X‑chromosomal vererbte hypophosphatämische Rachitis, die durch Mutationen im PHEX-Gen verursacht wird. PHEX kodiert für das „phosphatregulierende Gen mit Homologie zu Endopeptidasen“, das in die Regulation des Fibroblastenwachstumsfaktors FGF23 involviert ist. Eine durch PHEX oder andere Genmutationen bedingte Erhöhung von FGF23 führt zu einer forcierten Phosphatausscheidung über die Niere und einem konsekutiven Phosphatverlust. Die selteneren Formen der HR, die autosomal-dominant, autosomal-rezessiv oder X‑chromosomal-rezessiv vererbt werden können, werden heutzutage danach unterschieden, ob sie eine FGF23-Erhöhung hervorrufen oder FGF23-unabhängig einen Phosphatverlust induzieren. Dies ist von diagnostischer und therapeutischer Bedeutung. Während die Therapie der HR bislang durch mehrfach tägliche Phosphatgaben und aktive Vitamin-D-Metabolite erfolgte, so steht seit Kurzem mit Burosumab ein anti-FGF23 Antikörper zur Verfügung. Dieser ist allerdings zurzeit in Europa nur für die XLHR im Kindes- und Jugendalter zugelassen. Mit dieser Therapie lässt sich laborchemisch eine Normalisierung des renalen Phosphatverlusts und damit eine deutliche Verbesserung der Rachitis und Osteomalazie erreichen. Kurz- und mittelfristig ist dadurch eine deutliche klinische Verbesserung zu beobachten. Langzeitergebnisse und umfassende Daten zur Anwendung bei erwachsenen XLH-Patient*innen stehen hingegen noch aus.

Abstract
Background: Tumor-induced or oncogenic osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome in which osteomalacia is a consequence of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) secretion by a mesenchymal tumor. The localization of the culprit lesion in patients with TIO is often challenging. Several studies have evaluated the detection rate (DR) of these tumors using somatostatin receptor positron emission tomography (SSTR-PET/CT). We aimed to summarize literature findings on this topic providing pooled estimates of DR. Methods: A comprehensive literature search by screening PubMed, Embase and Cochrane library electronic databases through August 2019 was performed. The pooled DR of culprit tumors using SSTR-PET/CT in patients with TIO was calculated using a random-effects statistical model. Results: Fourteen studies on the use of SSTR-PET/CT in detecting the culprit tumor in patients with TIO were included in the qualitative analysis. The pooled DR of SSTR-PET/CT on a per-patient-based analysis calculated using eleven studies (166 patients) was 87.6% (95% confidence interval (95% CI) 80.2–95.1%). Statistical heterogeneity among studies was detected (I-square = 63%), likely due to the use of different radiolabeled somatostatin analogues, as demonstrated by a subgroup analysis. Conclusions: Despite limited literature data due to the rarity of the disease, SSTR-PET/CT demonstrated a very high DR of culprit tumors in patients with TIO and it could be used as first-line imaging method for this indication.
