Abstract
INTRODUCTION Denosumab has been reported to increase bone mineral density (BMD) and suppress fractures, but poor responders are not uncommon. This study aimed to identify risk factors for poor response to denosumab treatment. This is the first study to explore risk factors for poor response to denosumab. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective observational study investigated 227 Japanese postmenopausal women who received denosumab with monitoring of BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at 6-month intervals. Risk factors were identified using Cox's proportional hazard modeling. Poor responders were defined as not exceeding the least significant change of BMD from baseline for 3 years. RESULTS Mean relative change from baseline for 3 years in lumbar spine (LS)-BMD, femoral neck (FN)-BMD, and total hip (TH)-BMD were 12.6%, 6.8%, and 6.1%, respectively. Numbers of poor responders were 10 in LS-BMD, 47 in FN-BMD, 38 in TH-BMD. Risk factors for poor response were concomitant glucocorticoid use for LS-BMD, low body mass index or initiation at higher BMD for FN-BMD, and pretreatment with bisphosphonates or initiation at higher BMD for TH-BMD. CONCLUSION Risk factors for insufficient denosumab effect differed between BMD measurement sites. These results should be taken into consideration when selecting denosumab in clinical practice.

Abstract
Bone destruction is an important pathological feature of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which finally leads to the serious decline of life quality in RA patients. Bone metabolism imbalance is the principal factor of bone destruction in RA, which is manifested by excessive osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and inadequate osteoblast-mediated bone formation. Although current drugs alleviate the process of bone destruction to a certain extent, there are still many deficiencies. Recent studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) could effectively suppress bone destruction of RA. Some bioactive compounds from TCM have shown good effect on inhibiting osteoclast differentiation and promoting osteoblast proliferation. This article reviews the research progress of bioactive compounds exacted from TCM in inhibiting bone destruction of RA, so as to provide references for further clinical and scientific research.

The adiponectin receptor agonist AdipoRon normalizes glucose metabolism and prevents obesity but not growth retardation induced by glucocorticoids in young mice. Metabolism 2020; 103:154027. [PMID: 31778708 DOI: 10.1016/j.metabol.2019.154027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2019] [Revised: 11/08/2019] [Accepted: 11/22/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Glucocorticoids (GCs) are highly effective anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive drugs. However, prolonged GC therapy may cause numerous adverse effects leading to diabetes and obesity, as well as bone disorders such as osteoporosis in adults and growth retardation in children and adolescents. Prevention and care of the GC-induced adverse effects remain challenging. We have previously demonstrated the efficacy of a treatment with a non-peptidic agonist of adiponectin receptors, AdipoRon, to reverse behaviour disorders and fat mass gain induced by long-term GC treatment. In this work, we have established a relevant model of GC-induced growth and metabolic disorders and determined that AdipoRon is a potential therapeutic tool to reverse these metabolic disturbances. METHODS 5-Week-old mice were treated continuously with or without corticosterone (35 mg/L) in drinking water for seven consecutive weeks. Taking advantage of this mouse model displaying various growth and metabolic disorders, we assayed whether AdipoRon (daily intraperitoneal injection of 1 mg/kg/day for the last 20 days) might prevent the GC-induced adverse effects. The control group was treated with vehicle only. Nutritional behaviors and metabolic parameters were followed-up throughout the treatment. Serum insulin and leptin levels were measured by ELISA. Computed tomography and histological analysis of adipose tissue were assessed at the end of the experimental procedure. RESULTS We found that GC treatment in young mice resulted in continuously increased body weight gain associated with a food intake increase. Compared to vehicle-, GC-treated mice displayed early major hyperleptinemia (up to 6-fold more) and hyperinsulinemia (up to 20-fold more) maintained throughout the treatment. At the end of the experimental procedure, GC-treated mice displayed bone growth retardation (e.g. femur length 15.1 versus 14.0 mm, P < 0.01), higher abdominal adipose tissue volume (4.1 versus 2.3, P < 0.01) and altered glucose metabolism compared to control mice. Interestingly, AdipoRon prevented GC-induced effects on energy metabolism such as abdominal adiposity, insulinemia and leptinemia. However, AdipoRon failed to counteract bone growth retardation. CONCLUSION We characterized the very early pathological steps induced by long-term GC in young mice in a relevant model, including growth retardation, fat mass gain and glucose homeostasis dysregulation. The adiponectin system stimulation enabled normalization of the adipose tissue and metabolic features of GC-treated mice. Adiponectin receptor agonists such as AdipoRon might constitute a novel way to counteract some GC-induced adverse effects.

Abstract
Background: Outcomes after total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) combined with additive techniques (augmentation of bone strength, control of soft-tissue balance, adjustment of the loading axis) for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis were evaluated after intermediate to long-term follow-up. The influences of biologic treatment on the outcomes after TAA were also evaluated. Methods: We performed a retrospective observational study involving 50 ankles (44 patients) that underwent TAA for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The mean duration of follow-up was 7.1 years. Clinical outcomes were evaluated with use of the Japanese Society for Surgery of the Foot (JSSF) scale score and a postoperative self-administered foot-evaluation questionnaire (SAFE-Q). Radiographic findings were evaluated as well. These parameters also were compared between patients managed with and without biologic treatment. Results: This procedure significantly improved the clinical scores of the JSSF rheumatoid arthritis foot and ankle scale (p < 0.0001). Forty-eight of the 50 ankles had no revision TAA surgery. Subsidence of the talar component was seen in 8 ankles (6 in the biologic treatment group and 2 in the non-biologic treatment group); 2 of these ankles (both in the biologic treatment group) underwent revision TAA. The social functioning score of the SAFE-Q scale at the time of the latest follow-up was significantly higher in the biologic treatment group (p = 0.0079). The dosage of prednisolone (p = 0.0003), rate of usage of prednisolone (p = 0.0001), and disease-activity score (p < 0.01) at the time of the latest follow-up were all significantly lower in the biologic treatment group. Conclusions: TAA is recommended for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis if disease control, augmentation of bone strength, control of soft-tissue balance, and adjustment of the loading axis are taken into account. The prevention of talar component subsidence remains a challenge in patients with the combination of subtalar fusion, rheumatoid arthritis, and higher social activity levels. Level of Evidence: Therapeutic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
Bone turnover comprises two processes: the removal of old bone (resorption) and the laying down of new bone (formation). N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP) and C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-I) are markers of bone formation and resorption, respectively, that are recommended for clinical use. Bone turnover markers can be measured on several occasions in one individual with good precision. However, these markers are subject to several sources of variability, including feeding (resorption decreases) and recent fracture (all markers increase for several months). Bone turnover markers are not used for diagnosis of osteoporosis and do not improve prediction of bone loss or fracture within an individual. In untreated women, very high bone turnover marker concentrations suggest secondary causes of high bone turnover (eg, bone metastases or multiple myeloma). In people with osteoporosis, bone turnover markers might be useful to assess the response to anabolic and antiresorptive therapies, to assess compliance to therapy, or to indicate possible secondary osteoporosis. Much remains to be learnt about how bone turnover markers can be used to monitor the effect of stopping bisphosphonate therapy (eg, to identify a threshold above which restarting therapy should be considered). More studies are needed to investigate the use of bone turnover markers for assessment of the bone safety of new medications.

Use of bisphosphonate might be important to improve bone mineral density in patients with rheumatoid arthritis even under tight control: the TOMORROW study. Rheumatol Int 2017; 37:999-1005. [PMID: 28405825 DOI: 10.1007/s00296-017-3720-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2016] [Accepted: 04/07/2017] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
Although patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are prone to osteoporosis, tight control of disease activity might have a positive effect on bone metabolism. We aimed to determine whether bisphosphonate use is still important to improve bone mineral density (BMD) in RA patients whose disease activity was tightly controlled and the dose of glucocorticoid was reduced. This study was a sub-analysis of the 10-year prospective cohort TOtal Management Of Risk factors in Rheumatoid arthritis patients to lOWer morbidity and mortality: the TOMORROW which started from 2010. We compared BMD between 192 patients with RA and age- and sex-matched volunteers between 2010 and 2013 using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in whole body mode. We then determined ratios of changes in BMD (%ΔBMD) to assess factors influencing increases in BMD among the patients using multivariate logistic regression analysis. The BMD was significantly lower in the patients than in the controls at all sites surveyed during 2010 and 2013. The %ΔBMD of the total spine was significantly higher among the patients treated with, than without bisphosphonate (6.2 vs. 1.8%, P = 0.0001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that use of bisphosphonate was a significant factor contributing to BMD increase (odds ratio 2.13; 95% confidence interval, 1.03-4.38, P = 0.041). Meanwhile, use of biologic agents, reducing glucocorticoid dose, and control of disease activity were not significant factors for gain of BMD. The BMD was lower among patients with RA than non-RA controls. Use of bisphosphonate significantly increased the BMD of the spine in patients over a period of 3 years and was important for maintaining the BMD among patients with RA under the control of inflammation and disease activity.
