Abstract
Purpose Bone and vascular diseases are considered to share pathogenic mechanisms. Excess glucocorticoids, key regulators of cardiovascular and metabolic homeostasis, may promote both diseases simultaneously. We used endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) to investigate whether glucocorticoid excess underlies coexisting bone and vascular diseases. Methods We included 194 patients with adrenal tumors (ATs): autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS, n = 97) and non-functional AT (n = 97). ACS was further classified into overt CS (n = 17) and subclinical CS (SCS, n = 80). Arterial stiffness was defined as a brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) ≥ 1800 cm/s. Results Patients with ACS had higher coexistence rates of vertebral fracture and arterial stiffness (23 % vs. 2 %; p < 0.001) and vertebral fracture and abdominal aortic calcification (22 % vs. 1 %; p < 0.001) than those with non-functional AT. In patients with ACS, baPWV was negatively correlated with trabecular bone score (TBS, r = -0.33; p = 0.002), but not with bone mineral density, and vertebral fracture was associated with arterial stiffness in the logistic regression analysis. In the multivariate analysis of variance, the degree of cortisol excess (defined as CS, SCS, and non-functional AT) determined the correlation between TBS and baPWV (partial η2 = 0.07; p < 0.001). In the analysis of covariance, patients with coexisting vertebral fracture and arterial stiffness had higher levels of serum cortisol after the 1-mg dexamethasone suppression test than those without. Conclusion In endogenous glucocorticoid excess, bone and vascular diseases frequently coexisted, and deteriorated bone quality, not bone loss, was related to arterial stiffness. Thus, glucocorticoid excess may perturb the bone-vascular axis.

Abstract
This is a narrative review focusing on neuroendocrine neoplasia (NEN) and bone status, in terms of metastases and osteoporosis/fractures. One fifth of NEN have skeletal dissemination, this affinity being regulated by intrinsic tumor factors such as the C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4). Bone colonization impairs the patient quality of life, representing a surrogate of reduced survival. Patients with NEN without bone metastases may exhibit low bone mineral density, perhaps carcinoid-related osteoporosis, yet not a standardized cause of osteoporosis. Case-finding strategies to address bone health in NEN with a good prognosis are lacking. Contributors to fractures in NEN subjects may include: menopausal status and advanced age, different drugs, induced hypogonadism, malnutrition, malabsorption (due to intestinal resection, carcinoid syndrome), hypovitaminosis D, impaired glucose profile (due to excessive hormones such as glucagon, somatostatinoma or use of somatostatin analogues), various corticoid regimes, and high risk of fall due to sarcopenia. Pheocromocytoma/paraganglioma involve bone through malignant forms (bone is an elective site) and potential secondary osteoporosis due to excessive hormonal content and increased sympathetic activity which is a key player of bone microarchitecture/quality as reflected by low Trabecular Bone Score. Glucocorticoid osteoporosis is related to NEN-associated ectopic Cushing syndrome. Currently, there are a lack of studies to emphasis that excessive gut-derivate serotonin in NENs with carcinoid syndrome is a specific activator of bone loss thus a contributor to carcinoid-related osteoporosis.

Abstract
Currently, little is known regarding the association between dietary choline intake and osteoporosis in elderly individuals, as well as if such intakes affect bone health and result in fractures. This study was aimed to examine associations between daily dietary choline intake and osteoporosis in elderly individuals. A total of 31 034 participants from the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES) during 2005-2010 were enrolled, and 3179 participants with complete data and aged 65 years and older were identified. Baseline characteristics and dietary intake data were obtained through method of in-home administered questionnaires. Of 3179 individuals with a mean age of 73.7 ± 5.6 years, female (P < 0.001) and non-hispanic white (P < 0.001) occupied a higher proportion in the osteoporosis group. The logistic regression analysis indicated that the prevalence of osteoporosis in three tertile categories with gradually enhanced dietary choline intake was decreased progressively (P for trend <0.001). The restricted cubic spline (RCS) showed that the risk of osteoporosis generally decreased with increasing daily dietary choline intake (P < 0.001), while this trend was not apparent in relation between the daily dietary choline intake and risk of hip fracture (P = 0.592). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis identified a daily dietary choline intake of 232.1 mg as the optimal cutoff value for predicting osteoporosis. Our nationwide data suggested that a lower level of daily dietary choline intake was positively associated with the increased risk of osteoporosis in the US elderly population.
