Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Disturbances in mineral and bone metabolism occurring in osteoporosis and chronic kidney disease-associated osteoporosis place patients at high risk of fracture making these conditions a major public health concern. Due to the limited use of bone histomorphometry in clinical practice, the gold standard for assessing bone turnover, extensive efforts have been made to identify bone turnover markers (BTMs) as noninvasive surrogates. Since the identification of certain commonly used markers several decades ago, considerable experience has been acquired regarding their clinical utility in such bone disorders. RECENT FINDINGS Mounting evidence suggested that BTMs represent a simple, low-risk, rapid and convenient way to obtain data on the skeletal health and that they may be useful in guiding therapeutic choices and monitoring the response to treatment. SUMMARY BTMs could provide clinicians with useful information, independent from, and often complementary to bone mineral density (BMD) measurements. They have proven valuable for monitoring the effectiveness of osteoporosis therapy, as well as promising for discriminating low and high turnover states. Improved performance is observed when BTMs are combined, which may be useful for selecting treatments for chronic kidney disease-bone mineral disorders (CKD-MBD).

Leung MTY, Turner JP, Marquina C, Ilomaki J, Tran T, Bell JS. Impact of oral bisphosphonate drug holiday on mortality following hip fracture: a population-based cohort study. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2024:dgae272. [PMID: 38630464 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgae272] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024]
Abstract
CONTEXT Current clinical guidelines recommend a drug holiday after extended use of oral bisphosphonates. However, no studies have investigated the impact of drug holidays before hip fractures on post-fracture mortality. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of drug holiday on post-fracture mortality in patients with extended use of oral bisphosphonates. DESIGN Retrospective population-based cohort study. SETTING All patients with hip fractures in Victoria, Australia from 2014-18. PATIENTS Patients adherent to oral alendronate or risedronate for ≥5 years prior to hip fracture. INTERVENTION(S) Group-based trajectory modelling categorized patients into different bisphosphonate usage after 5-year good adherence. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Post-fracture mortality. RESULTS We identified 365 patients with good adherence (medication possession ratio ≥80%) to oral alendronate/risedronate for ≥5 years. Most patients (69%) continued to use oral bisphosphonates till admission for hip fracture; 17% had discontinued for one year and 14% had discontinued for two years. Post-fracture mortality was higher in patients who had discontinued risedronate for one year (Hazard ratio [HR] 2.37, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.24-4.53) and two years (HR 3.08, 95% CI 1.48-6.41) prior to hip fracture. No increase or decrease in post-fracture mortality was observed in patients who had discontinued alendronate for one year (HR 0.59, 95% CI 0.29-1.18) or two years (HR 1.05, 95% CI 0.57-1.93) prior to hip fracture. CONCLUSIONS Post-fracture mortality is higher in people who discontinue risedronate, but not alendronate, for 1 or 2 years after being adherent to treatment for at least 5 years. The type of bisphosphonate may be a factor to consider when planning drug holidays.

Abstract
Macroporous hydrogels offer physical supportive spaces and bio-instructive environment for the seeded cells, where cell-scaffold interactions directly influence cell fates and subsequently affect tissue regeneration post-implantation. Effectively modifying bioactive motifs at the inner pore surface provides appropriate niches for cell-scaffold interactions. A molecular imprinting method and sacrificial templates are introduced to prepare inner pore surface modification in the macroporous hydrogels. In detail, acrylated bisphosphonates (Ac-BPs) chelating to templates (CaCO3 particles) are anchored on the inner pore surface of the methacrylated gelatin (GelMA)-methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HAMA)-poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) macroporous hydrogel (GHP) to form a functional hydrogel scaffold (GHP-int-BP). GHP-int-BP, but not GHP, effectively crafts artificial cell niches to substantially alter cell fates, including osteogenic induction and osteoclastic inhibition, and promote in situ bone regeneration. These findings highlight that molecular imprinting on the inner pore surface in the hydrogel efficiently creates orthogonally additive bio-instructive scaffolds for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Appropriate follow-up after treatment initiation in patients with osteoporosis is challenging. Serum biomarkers may offer more efficient monitoring of bone mineral density (BMD) than the currently used dual X-ray absorptiometry; however, significant changes in BMD often occur over at least 12 months. During teriparatide treatment for osteoporosis, monitoring with markers such as procollagen type I propeptide (PINP), which is derived from osteoblasts, can provide clinically useful information for disease management. However, rapid and cost-effective methods for detecting serum PINP are lacking, necessitating a point-of-care test (POCT) for enhanced follow-up efficiency in osteoporosis management. For the quantitative detection of PINP, we developed a high-sensitivity lateral flow immunoassay with a stacking pad (sLFIA). We established a calibration equation based on the test line/control line ratio obtained from our PINP sLFIA results of various nonspiked serum samples to calculate the PINP concentrations in 40 serum samples and compared the result with those obtained using a fully automated electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. PINP concentrations between these two methods exhibited excellent correlation (R = 0.991). In addition, we assessed the serum PINP concentrations of patients with osteoporosis treated with teriparatide. At the 3-month follow-up, their PINP levels were nearly twice as high as those at baseline, thus implying that our method can be used for osteoporosis treatment monitoring. Our findings thus indicate that the PINP sLFIA can serve as a POCT for monitoring medication response and managing osteoporosis.

Abstract
Bone turnover markers (BTMs) are used widely, in both research and clinical practice. In the last 20 years, much experience has been gained in measurement and interpretation of these markers, which include commonly used bone formation markers bone alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and procollagen I N-propeptide; and commonly used resorption markers serum C-telopeptides of type I collagen, urinary N-telopeptides of type I collagen and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase type 5b. BTMs are usually measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or automated immunoassay. Sources contributing to BTM variability include uncontrollable components (e.g., age, gender, ethnicity) and controllable components, particularly relating to collection conditions (e.g., fasting/feeding state, and timing relative to circadian rhythms, menstrual cycling, and exercise). Pregnancy, season, drugs, and recent fracture(s) can also affect BTMs. BTMs correlate with other methods of assessing bone turnover, such as bone biopsies and radiotracer kinetics; and can usefully contribute to diagnosis and management of several diseases such as osteoporosis, osteomalacia, Paget's disease, fibrous dysplasia, hypophosphatasia, primary hyperparathyroidism, and chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder.

Current use of bone turnover markers in the management of osteoporosis. Clin Biochem 2022; 109-110:1-10.

Abstract
The adult bone is continuously being remodelled to repair microdamage, preserve bone strength and mechanical competence as well as maintain calcium homeostasis. Bone turnover markers are products of osteoblasts (bone formation markers) and osteoclasts (bone resorption markers) providing a dynamic assessment of remodelling (turnover). Resorption-specific bone turnover markers are typically degradation products of bone collagen molecules (N- [NTX] and C-telopeptide cross-linked type 1 collagen [CTX]), which are released into the circulation and excreted in urine; or enzymatic activities reflecting osteoclastic resorption, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase [TRACP]. Formation-specific bone turnover markers embrace different osteoblastic activities: type 1 collagen synthesis (Procollagen type I N- propeptide [PINP]), osteoblast enzymes (bone-specific alkaline phosphatase [BALP]), or bone matrix proteins [osteocalcin]. Among individuals not receiving osteoporosis treatment, resorption and formation markers are tightly linked and highly correlated (r= 0.6-0.8). Significant biological variability was reported in the past, but these issues have been greatly improved with automated assays and attention to pre-analytical and analytical factors that are known to influence bone turnover marker levels. Bone turnover markers are not useful in the diagnosis of osteoporosis, the individual prediction of bone loss, fracture, or rare complications, or in the selection of pharmacological treatment. Despite remaining issues with reference intervals and assays harmonization, bone turnover markers have proven to be useful in elucidating the pharmacodynamics and effectiveness of osteoporosis medications in clinical trials. As an alternative to BMD testing, BTMs may be useful to monitor osteoporosis therapies.

Bisphosphonate-based hydrogel mediates biomimetic negative feedback regulation of osteoclastic activity to promote bone regeneration. Bioact Mater 2022; 13:9-22.

Abstract
The intricate dynamic feedback mechanisms involved in bone homeostasis provide valuable inspiration for the design of smart biomaterial scaffolds to enhance in situ bone regeneration. In this work, we assembled a biomimetic hyaluronic acid nanocomposite hydrogel (HA-BP hydrogel) by coordination bonds with bisphosphonates (BPs), which are antiosteoclastic drugs. The HA-BP hydrogel exhibited expedited release of the loaded BP in response to an acidic environment. Our in vitro studies showed that the HA-BP hydrogel inhibits mature osteoclastic differentiation of macrophage-like RAW264.7 cells via the released BP. Furthermore, the HA-BP hydrogel can support the initial differentiation of primary macrophages to preosteoclasts, which are considered essential during bone regeneration, whereas further differentiation to mature osteoclasts is effectively inhibited by the HA-BP hydrogel via the released BP. The in vivo evaluation showed that the HA-BP hydrogel can enhance the in situ regeneration of bone. Our work demonstrates a promising strategy to design biomimetic biomaterial scaffolds capable of regulating bone homeostasis to promote bone regeneration. HA-BP hydrogel can mediate the expedited release of BP in response to the acidic microenvironment created by osteoclasts. HA-BP hydrogel supports preosteoclastic differentiation, but inhibits the further osteoclastic maturation. The implantation of HA-BP hydrogel in critical-sized bone defects significantly promotes in situ bone regeneration in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An osteoporosis drug holiday is recommended for most patients after 3 to 5 years of therapy. Risedronate has a shorter half-life than alendronate, and thus the residual length of fracture protection may be shorter. OBJECTIVE To examine the comparative risks of drug holidays after long-term (≥3 years) risedronate versus alendronate therapy. DESIGN Population-based, matched, cohort study. SETTING Province-wide health care administrative databases providing comprehensive coverage to Ontario residents aged 65 years or older between November 2000 and March 2020. PATIENTS Persons aged 66 years or older who had long-term risedronate therapy and a drug holiday were matched 1:1 on propensity score to those who had long-term alendronate therapy and a drug holiday. MEASUREMENTS The primary outcome was hip fracture within 3 years after a 120-day ascertainment period. Secondary analyses included shorter follow-up and sex-specific estimates. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) for fracture risk between groups. RESULTS A total of 25 077 propensity score-matched pairs were eligible (mean age, 81 years; 81% women). Hip fracture rates were higher among risedronate than alendronate drug holidays (12.4 and 10.6 events, respectively, per 1000 patient-years; HR, 1.18 [95% CI, 1.04 to 1.34]; 915 total hip fractures). The association was attenuated when any fracture was included as the outcome (HR, 1.07 [CI, 1.00 to 1.16]) and with shorter drug holidays (1 year: HR, 1.03 [CI, 0.85 to 1.24]; 2 years: HR, 1.14 [CI, 0.96 to 1.32]). LIMITATION Analyses were limited to health care administrative data (potential unmeasured confounding), and some secondary analyses contained few events. CONCLUSION Drug holidays after long-term therapy with risedronate were associated with a small increase in risk for hip fracture compared with alendronate drug holidays. Future research should examine how best to mitigate this risk. PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE Canadian Institutes of Health Research.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a chronical, systemic skeletal disorder characterized by an increase in bone resorption, which leads to reduced bone density. The reduction in bone mineral density and therefore low bone mass results in an increased risk of fractures. Osteoporosis is caused by an imbalance in the normally strictly regulated bone homeostasis. This imbalance is caused by overactive bone-resorbing osteoclasts, while bone-synthesizing osteoblasts do not compensate for this. In this review, the mechanism is presented, underlined by in vitro and animal models to investigate this imbalance as well as the current status of clinical trials. Furthermore, new therapeutic strategies for osteoporosis are presented, such as anabolic treatments and catabolic treatments and treatments using biomaterials and biomolecules. Another focus is on new combination therapies with multiple drugs which are currently considered more beneficial for the treatment of osteoporosis than monotherapies. Taken together, this review starts with an overview and ends with the newest approaches for osteoporosis therapies and a future perspective not presented so far.

The European Renal Association-European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA) CKD-MBD working group, in collaboration with the Committee of Scientific Advisors of the International Osteoporosis Foundation, published a position paper for the diagnosis and management of osteoporosis in patients with CKD stages 4-5D (eGFR < 30 ml/min 1.73 m2). The present article reports and summarizes the main recommendations included in this 2021 document. The following areas are reviewed: diagnosis of osteoporosis; risk factors for fragility fractures; fracture risk assessment; intervention thresholds for pharmacological intervention; general and pharmacological management of osteoporosis; monitoring of treatment, and systems of care, all in patients with CKD stages 4-5D. Guidance is provided for clinicians caring for CKD stages 4-5D patients with osteoporosis, allowing for a pragmatic individualized diagnostic and therapeutic approach as an alternative to current variations in care and treatment nihilism.

Early changes in bone turnover and bone mineral density after discontinuation of long-term oral bisphosphonates: a post hoc analysis. Osteoporos Int 2021; 32:1879-1888. [PMID: 33606045 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-020-05785-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2020] [Accepted: 12/07/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED This post hoc analysis of a randomized, double-blind study of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis found that there were early increases in bone turnover markers and decreases in bone mineral density after discontinuation of long-term alendronate. These findings might help guide treatment decisions, including monitoring after alendronate withdrawal. INTRODUCTION The short-term effects of discontinuing long-term bisphosphonates are poorly characterized. This post hoc analysis investigated 1-12-month changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover markers (BTM) after alendronate (ALN) discontinuation. METHODS Data were from a randomized, double-blind trial of MK-5442 (calcium-sensing receptor antagonist) following oral bisphosphonates, with placebo and continued ALN controls ( ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00996801). Postmenopausal women with osteoporosis had received oral bisphosphonate (≥ 3-4 preceding years; ALN for the 12 months pre-screening), continuing on ALN 70 mg/week (n = 87) or placebo (n = 88). RESULTS At 12 months, least-squares mean percent changes from baseline BMD (placebo vs. ALN) were lumbar spine (LS): - 0.36 vs. 1.29, total hip: - 1.44 vs. 0.46, and femoral neck (FN): - 1.26 vs. - 0.08 (all P < 0.05). BTM levels increased by 1-3 months, to 12 months, with placebo vs. ALN (P < 0.001). FN BMD decline was greater in the placebo subgroup with higher urinary N-terminal cross-linked telopeptides of type I collagen/creatinine [uNTx/Cr] (P < 0.01), and higher serum N-terminal pro-peptide of type 1 collagen [P1NP] levels (P < 0.05), at baseline. There was a trend toward greater FN BMD loss with higher BTM levels at 3 and/or 6 months. Younger age and higher LS BMD at baseline were associated with greater LS BMD loss at 12 months (P = 0.04 and < 0.01, respectively); higher baseline FN BMD predicted greater FN BMD loss (P = 0.04). CONCLUSION Early changes in BTM levels and BMD were observed after discontinuation of long-term ALN. Further characterization of factors associated with patients' risk of bone loss upon bisphosphonate discontinuation is warranted.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In patients discontinuing ALN after a median of 7.0 years (range 5.0-20.0 years), BMD decreased, and bone turnover markers increased within the premenopausal reference range over 2 years. Increased p-CTX after 3 months was associated with greater bone loss at the hip confirming that maintenance of BMD is dependent on continued suppression of bone turnover. INTRODUCTION It is unknown how to monitor patients discontinuing alendronate (ALN) after more than 5 years. We investigated if BTM measured before or during treatment discontinuation with ALN predict bone loss after 1 or 2 years. METHODS PROSA was a cohort study conducted at Aarhus University Hospital including postmenopausal women and men above 50 years treated with ALN ≥ 5 years who had osteopenia at the hip and BMD T-score at the lumbar spine > - 4. ALN was discontinued and BTMs were measured at baseline, months (M) 1, 3, 6, and 12, and DXA was performed at baseline, M6, and M12. We extended the study and measured BTMs and performed DXA at M24. The primary endpoint was if changes in p-CTX at M3 or M6 predict changes in THBMD after 1 year ( Clinicaltrials.gov : NCT03051620). RESULTS We enrolled 136 participants discontinuing ALN after a median of 7.0 years (range 5.0-20.0 years) in PROSA and 124 participants in PROSA Extension. There was a significant decrease in LSBMD - 0.74% ± 0.27, THBMD - 2.65% ± 0.39, FNBMD - 2.35% ± 0.33, and trabecular bone score - 0.97% ± 0.35 and an increase in p-CTX by 61.1% ± 4.7 (p < 0.05 for all) after 24 months. Increase in p-CTX at M3 was associated with bone loss at the hip sites at M12 and M24. CONCLUSION In patients discontinuing ALN, BMD decreased significantly and BTMs increased within the reference range over 2 years. An increase in p-CTX after 3 months was associated with greater bone loss at the hip confirming that maintenance of BMD during treatment discontinuation is dependent on continued suppression of bone turnover.

Abstract
The objective of this work is to develop and verify the analytical performance of a chemiluminescence immunoassay for the specific sequence β-carboxy-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen (β-CTX) in human serum. Two specific monoclonal antibodies (mAb-8A03 and mAb-3D12) with high affinity for β-CTX were selected, and, under optimized conditions, a chemiluminescence immunoassay method (CLIA) for β-CTX was established. The CLIA of β-CTX detected β-CTX in a wide range of 2.0-6000 ng/L. The recovery rate in serum is 95-105%, the specificity is high, and the cross-reaction rate with common easily interfering substances is low (not more than 0.01%). The CLIA correlates well with Roche electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA), with a correlation coefficient of 0.9551, which fully meets the requirements of clinical analysis. The developed β-CTX CLIA kit has high sensitivity and good stability. It has the same performance as the commercial Roche ECLIA kit and can be applied clinically.

Differentiating the causes of adynamic bone in advanced chronic kidney disease informs osteoporosis treatment. Kidney Int 2021; 100:546-558.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an increased fracture risk because of impaired bone quality and quantity. Low bone mineral density predicts fracture risk in all CKD stages, including advanced CKD (CKD G4-5D). Pharmacological therapy improves bone mineral density and reduces fracture risk in moderate CKD. Its efficacy in advanced CKD remains to be determined, although pilot studies suggest a positive effect on bone mineral density. Currently, antiresorptive agents are the most commonly prescribed drugs for the prevention and therapy of osteoporosis. Their use in advanced CKD has been limited by the lack of large clinical trials and fear of causing kidney dysfunction and adynamic bone disease. In recent decades, adynamic bone disease has evolved as the most predominant form of renal osteodystrophy, commonly associated with poor outcomes, including premature mortality and progression of vascular calcification. Evolving evidence indicates that reduction of bone turnover by parathyroidectomy or pharmacological therapies, such as calcimimetics and antiresorptive agents, are not associated with premature mortality or accelerated vascular calcification in CKD. In contrast, chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, malnutrition, and diabetes can induce low bone turnover and associate with poor prognosis. Thus, the conditions causing suppression of bone turnover rather than the low bone turnover per se may account for the perceived association with outcomes. Anabolic treatment, in contrast, has been suggested to improve turnover and bone mass in patients with advanced CKD and low bone turnover; however, uncertainty about safety even exceeds that of antiresorptive agents. Here, we critically review the pathophysiological concept of adynamic bone disease and discuss the effect of low bone turnover on the safety and efficacy of anti-osteoporosis pharmacotherapy in advanced CKD.

Abstract
Controlling the excessive fracture burden in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) Stages G4-G5D remains an impressive challenge. The reasons are 2-fold. First, the pathophysiology of bone fragility in patients with CKD G4-G5D is complex and multifaceted, comprising a mixture of age-related (primary male/postmenopausal), drug-induced and CKD-related bone abnormalities. Second, our current armamentarium of osteoporosis medications has not been developed for, or adequately studied in patients with CKD G4-G5D, partly related to difficulties in diagnosing osteoporosis in this specific setting and fear of complications. Doubts about the optimal diagnostic and therapeutic approach fuel inertia in daily clinical practice. The scope of the present consensus paper is to review and update the assessment and diagnosis of osteoporosis in patients with CKD G4-G5D and to discuss the therapeutic interventions available and the manner in which these can be used to develop management strategies for the prevention of fragility fracture. As such, it aims to stimulate a cohesive approach to the management of osteoporosis in patients with CKD G4-G5D to replace current variations in care and treatment nihilism.

The use of bone turnover markers for monitoring the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal females undergoing total knee arthroplasty: a prospective randomized study. J Orthop Surg Res 2021; 16:195. [PMID: 33731168 PMCID: PMC7968280 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-021-02343-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2021] [Accepted: 03/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis (OP) and osteoarthritis (OA) commonly coexist in postmenopausal females. The decrease in bone density and increase in bone resorption in postmenopausal females with OP may consequently affect the surgical outcome of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, clinicians often ignore monitoring the treatment of OP in the perioperative management of TKA. Bone turnover marker (BTM) can timely and accurately reflect bone metabolism to monitor the treatment of OP. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of BTM monitoring to guide the treatment of OP in postmenopausal females undergoing TKA. METHODS Postmenopausal females with OP who underwent primary unilateral TKA were randomly divided into two groups (monitoring group and control group), given oral medication (alendronate, calcitriol, and calcium), and followed for 1 year. In the monitoring group, serum BTMs (C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-I), N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP), and 25(OH)D) were assessed preoperatively and repeated postoperatively; alendronate was withdrawn when CTX-I and PINP reached the reference interval; and calcitriol and calcium were withdrawn when 25(OH)D reached the reference interval. In the control group, oral medication was implemented for a uniform duration of 3 months. During the 1-year follow-up, the mean maximum total point motion (MTPM) of the tibial component, bone mineral density (BMD), visual analog scale (VAS) score, range of motion, and Oxford Knee Score (OKS) score were obtained. RESULTS In the monitoring group, BTM monitoring prolonged the medication duration, but did not cause more adverse reactions than in the control group. The mean MTPM values at 6 m and 12 m in the monitoring group were lower than those in the control group, and the BMD at 12 m in the monitoring group was significantly higher than that in the control group. Patients in the monitoring group had lower VAS scores at 6 m and higher OKS scores at 6 m and 12 m than those in the control group. CONCLUSION In postmenopausal females with osteoporosis undergoing primary TKA, the application of BTM monitoring to guide the treatment of osteoporosis can enhance bone density, maintain prosthesis stability, and improve surgical outcome.

Abstract
Bisphosphonates are first-line therapy for osteoporosis, with alendronate, risedronate, and zoledronate as the main treatments used globally. After one year of therapy, bisphosphonates are retained in bone for extended periods with extended anti-fracture effects after discontinuation. Due to this continued fracture protection and the potential for rare adverse events associated with long-term use (atypical femoral fractures and osteonecrosis of the jaw), a drug holiday of two to three years is recommended for most patients after long-term bisphosphonate therapy. The recommendation for a drug holiday up to three years is derived primarily from extensions of pivotal trials with alendronate and zoledronate and select surrogate marker studies. However, certain factors may modify the duration of bisphosphonate effects on a drug holiday and warrant consideration when determining an appropriate time off-therapy. In this narrative review, we recall what is currently known about drug holidays and discuss what we believe to be the primary considerations and areas for future research regarding drug holiday duration: total bisphosphonate exposure, type of bisphosphonate used, bone mineral density and falls risk, and patient sex and body weight.

Abstract
Serum procollagen type I N-propeptide (PINP) is designated the reference marker of bone formation in osteoporosis; the reference marker for resorption is C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX). PINP has very low circadian and biological variation, is not affected by food intake, and is very stable in serum after venepuncture. The two automated commercial assays for PINP provide similar results in subjects with normal renal function, allowing reference intervals to be used interchangeably. Bone turnover markers (BTM) are currently not recommended for fracture risk assessment and therefore not included in fracture risk calculators. In the management of osteoporosis, the main utility of BTM including PINP is for monitoring therapy, both antiresorptive as well as anabolic agents; monitoring is thought to help improve adherence. PINP as well as CTX may also be used in assessing offset of drug action following a pause in bisphosphonate therapy, to help decide when to re-instate therapy, or following cessation of denosumab therapy to assess efficacy of follow-on bisphosphonate therapy. PINP may also be used in the diagnosis of Paget's disease of bone as well as in monitoring response to therapy and for recurrence. Although BTM other than bone alkaline phosphatase are currently not recommended for use in metabolic bone disease of chronic kidney disease, PINP measured by assays specific to the intact molecule has potential in this condition. Further studies are needed to examine this area, as well as in malignant bone disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disease. Bisphosphonate (BP) and eldecalcitol (ELD) are two clinical first-line drugs for osteoporosis patients. However, the effect of ELD + BP vs. BP alone on osteoporosis treatment is still unclear. The present meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the different therapeutic effect of BP + ELD vs. BP alone in osteoporosis treatment. METHODS Eligible documents that selected from online databases including PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library were included in this study (updated to March 3, 2020). The quality assessment of the included studies was based on the guidelines of Cochrane. Meta-analysis was performed according to criteria such as intervention plan and outcome. The indicators including bone mineral density (BMD) in all enrolled studies were included in the current analysis. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and weighted mean differences (WMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using fixed- or random-effects models. Then, heterogeneity analysis was performed based on Cochran's Q test and I2 statistics. RESULTS A total of 4 studies (456 cases) with high quality were enrolled in this study. The effect of ELD + BP was superior to BP alone based on indicators including femoral neck BMD (FN-BMD) and total hip BMD (TH-BMD) in patients with followed up ≤ 6 months. Moreover, the effect of ELD + BP was superior to BP alone based on lumbar spine BMD (LS-BMD) in patients with 12 months followed up. CONCLUSION Therapeutic effect of ELD + BP was superior to BP alone in osteoporotic patients based on the influence of BMD.

Abstract
Oral Bisphosphonates (BPs) are the mainstay of osteoporotic treatment, however long-term adherence remains a challenge, primarily owing to the chronic character of the disease and the regimen complexity. Poor compliance has been shown to have a clear link to fracture risk. The role of bone turnover markers (BTMs) as a tool to ascertain adherence and response to therapy is supported by their rapid response to treatment; a decrease in values is witnessed within days or weeks of commencing treatment. A greater reduction of serum CTX and NTX is evidenced with alendronate and ibandronate compared to risedronate. A change in bone formation BTMs appears to be related to vertebral fracture risk reduction, whereas no significant relationship is evident for hip and non-vertebral fractures. The utility of BTMs as an adjunct for monitoring withdrawal of treatment with oral BP has also been suggested. Finally, studies evaluating BTMs as an intervention, failed to demonstrate any effect on adherence. This review explores the challenge of long-term adherence with bisphosphonates and provides an analytic framework with respect to the role of BTMs in monitoring bisphosphonate treatment, adherence and the offset of treatment effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postmenopausal osteoporosis results from estrogen withdrawal and is characterized mainly by bone resorption. Shikonin is a bioactive constitute of Chinese traditional herb which plays a role in antimicrobial and antitumor activities. The study was designed to investigate the role of shikonin on postmenopausal osteoporosis and explore its underlying mechanisms. METHODS Immunofluorescence staining was performed to evaluate the effects of shikonin on actin ring formation. The expression levels of the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway were determined by Western blot analysis. To determine whether shikonin influences the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced association between receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) and tumor necrosis factor receptor associated factor 6 (TRAF6), immunofluorescence staining and immunoprecipitation experiments were performed. During our validation model, histomorphometric examination and micro-computed tomography (CT) were conducted to assess the morphology of osteoporosis. RESULTS Shikonin prevented bone loss by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis in vitro and improving bone loss in ovariectomized mice in vivo. At the molecular level, Western blot analysis indicated that shikonin inhibited the phosphorylation of inhibitor of NF-κB (IκB), P50, P65, extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and P38. Interaction of TRAF6 and RANK was prevented, and downstream MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways were downregulated. CONCLUSION Osteoclastic bone resorption was reduced in the presence of shikonin in vitro and in vivo. Shikonin is a promising candidate for treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone turnover markers (BTMs) can be applied to the assessment of bone formation and bone resorption activity. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in BTMs in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). METHODS One hundred and five women with gestational diabetes mellitus defined as the GDM group and 46 healthy pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance selected as the control group were enrolled in this study. Serum samples were collected during regular obstetric examinations and the serum levels of total procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), N-terminal midfragment of osteocalcin (N-MID), and β-C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen (β-CTX) were measured. An independent-sample t-test, the Mann-Whitney U test, and a Pearson correlation analysis were performed for data analyses. RESULTS Serum β-CTX levels in the GDM group were significantly higher than those in the control group (296.00 [235.00-369.00] pg/mL vs. 218.5 [165.25-292.50] pg/mL, p < 0.05), while P1NP and N-MID levels did not differ between the two groups. The Pearson correlation analysis revealed that β-CTX level was correlated with blood glucose level. CONCLUSIONS The difference in β-CTX levels indicated that bone resorption in patients with GDM diabetes was higher than that in pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance. No obvious differences in bone formation markers P1NP and N-MID were found between the two groups.

Orthop Surg 2019; 12:116-123. [PMID: 31880071 PMCID: PMC7031572 DOI: 10.1111/os.12596] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2019] [Revised: 10/14/2019] [Accepted: 11/19/2019] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of the detection of bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover markers (BTM) in older women with osteoporosis, and to compare their predictive power for osteoporotic fractures (OF). Methods In this retrospective study, 96 patients with OF and 107 patients with osteoporosis who were hospitalized in the Department of Orthopedics at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College were examined from October 2017 to February 2019. All selected patients were divided into either the fracture group (96 cases, 47.3%) or the non‐fracture group (107 cases, 52.7%). BMD was measured by dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA). BTM were detected by electrochemical luminescence: aminoterminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP), β‐cross‐linked C‐telopeptide of type I collagen (β‐CTX), and molecular fragment of osteocalcin N terminal (N‐MID). Bone metabolism‐related indicators were detected, including alkaline phosphatase (ALP), calcium (Ca), and phosphorus (P). Independent‐samples t‐tests were used to compare the measurement data between the two groups, one‐way ANOVA to compare the gaps between groups, and binary logistic regression to analyze the correlation of BMD and BTM with OF. Results There were no significant differences in age, weight, height, body mass index, age, and time of menopause between the two groups. There were a total of 71 cases (35.0%) in group A (60–70 years), 80 cases (39.4%) in group B (71–80 years), and 52 cases (25.6%) in group C (81–90 years). The fracture group was compared with the non‐fracture group for BMD in the lumbar (0.75 ± 0.05 vs 0.88 ± 0.13, 0.75 ± 0.16 vs 0.87 ± 0.09, 0.74 ± 0.21 vs 0.87 ± 0.12 g/cm2; P < 0.05), BMD in the hip (0.62 ± 0.16 vs 0.74 ± 0.14, 0.61 ± 0.15 vs 0.73 ± 0.0, 0.58 ± 0.13 vs 0.73 ± 0.08 g/cm2; P < 0.05), PINP (83.7 ± 5.7 vs 74.8 ± 5.0, 80.7 ± 4.1 vs 72.1 ± 5.1, 81.2 ± 7.0 vs 68.7 ± 6.3 ng/mL, P < 0.05), and β‐CTX (829.7 ± 91.5 vs 798.8 ± 52.2, 848.1 ± 71.2 vs 812.4 ± 79.0, 867.3 ± 53.1 vs 849.1 ± 67.2 pg./mL, P < 0.05). N‐MID (19.0 ± 6.7 vs 21.3 ± 9.7, 16.2 ± 7.0 vs 18.0 ± 5.3 ng/mL, P < 0.05) in the fracture cases was lower than in the non‐fracture cases for groups B and C, and there was statistical significance. Among the fracture cases, PINP in group A was higher than in group B and C, and β‐CTX in group C was higher than in group A and B (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the ALP, P, and Ca between the two groups (P > 0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that for BMD in the lumbar and hip, β‐CTX and OF were significantly correlated (respectively, odds ratio [OR] = −4.182, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.672–3.448; OR = 6.929, 95% CI 2.586–12.106; OR = 7.572, 95% CI 1.441–3.059), and the differences were statistically significant. PINP and N‐MID were correlated with OF (respectively, OR = 4.213, 95% CI 0.978–1.005; OR = 2.510, 95% CI 1.070–1.134, P > 0.05), the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion Osteoporotic older women, with lower bone density and higher β‐CTX, are more likely to incur OF. β‐CTX is better than BMD at predicting OF and can help in its management and in implementing interventions in high‐risk populations.
