Abstract
Data on the effectiveness of denosumab on osteoporosis after kidney transplantation are limited. We investigated the long-term bone mineral density (BMD) changes in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) treated with denosumab compared to untreated KTRs. We enrolled KTRs treated with denosumab 60 mg/6 months for 4 years. An untreated group of sex and age-matched KTRs with a 1:1 ratio was included. The primary outcome was BMD changes assessed by Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry over 4 years. Data on serum creatinine, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), parathyroid hormone, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D were collected. All patients received oral cholecalciferol and calcium supplementation. 23 denosumab-treated KTRs were enrolled, and 23 untreated KTRs. The median time from transplant to the start of denosumab was 4 years (range 0:24). The denosumab group showed a significant increase from baseline in BMD at the lumbar spine (LS) (9.0 ± 10.7%, p < 0.001), and total hip (TH) (3.8 ± 7.9%, p = 0.041). The untreated group showed a significant decrease at all sites (- 3.0 ± 7%, p = 0.041 at the LS; - 6.3 ± 9.2%, p = 0.003 at the TH; - 6.7 ± 9.3%, p = 0.003 at the FN). The between-group differences in percent BMD changes were statistically significant at all sites. Similar results were found for the respective Z-scores. The ALP serum levels significantly decreased from baseline only in the denosumab group, with a significant between-group difference (p = 0.032). No significant differences in serum creatinine, hypocalcaemic events or acute graft rejection rates were observed. Four years of denosumab therapy were associated with increased BMD in KTRs, while untreated KTRs showed significant BMD losses at all sites.

Abstract
Introduction Osteoporosis, a disease of reduced bone mass and microstructural deterioration leading to fragility fractures, is becoming more prevalent as aging progresses, significantly increasing the socioeconomic burden. In past studies, there has been a growing awareness of the harmful effects of heavy metals on bone, with cadmium being a significant exposure factor. The purpose of this study was to look into the association between adult bone mineral density(BMD) and blood cadmium levels. Methods Based on information from the 2013-2014, 2017-2018 NHANES, weighted multiple regression, generalized weighted modeling, and smoothed curve fitting were utilized to investigate the association between blood cadmium and femur BMD. Furthermore, subgroup analyses were conducted to investigate any differences in the associations between age, sex, race, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes. Results In 2,146 participants, blood cadmium levels and total femur [-0.02 (-0.03, -0.01), 0.0027], femoral neck [-0.01 (-0.02, -0.00), 0.0240], femoral trochanter [-0.01 (-0.02, -0.00), 0.0042], and intertrochanteric femoral trochanter [-0.02 (-0.03, -0.00), 0.0101] BMD were negatively correlated. Subgroup analyses showed that this association was more pronounced in women, non-Hispanic white people and other Hispanics, and those with chronic kidney disease and diabetes. Our results pointed to a negative relationship between femoral BMD and blood cadmium. This negative association varied by age, sex, race, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. In particular, bone mineral density was more significantly negatively affected by blood cadmium levels in groups with diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Conclusion Our findings demonstrated a significant negative association between blood cadmium levels and bone mineral density in a population of U.S. adults.

Effect of osteosarcopenia on longitudinal mortality risk and chronic kidney disease progression in older adults. Bone 2024; 179:116975. [PMID: 37993037 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2023.116975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic kidney disease (CKD) causes a progressive loss of muscle and bone mass, which frequently overlap with and affect clinical outcomes. However, the impact of sarcopenia, low bone mineral density (BMD; osteopenia or osteoporosis), and osteosarcopenia (sarcopenia and low BMD) on CKD progression is yet to be determined. We aimed to address these issues in patients with CKD without kidney replacement therapy (KRT). METHODS This prospective cohort study included 251 outpatients aged ≥65 years with CKD without KRT enrolled in our hospital between June 2016 and March 2017. Sarcopenia was defined according to the 2014 criteria of the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS), and low BMD was defined as a T-score of ≤-1.0. The patients were divided into four groups: normal (no sarcopenia/normal BMD), only low BMD (no sarcopenia/low BMD), only sarcopenia (sarcopenia/normal BMD), and osteosarcopenia (sarcopenia/low BMD). The primary outcome was a composite of all-cause deaths, initiating KRT, and admissions owing to major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACEs). The secondary outcome was a kidney composite outcome that included a 30 % reduction in creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and initiating KRT. The outcome risk was determined using the Cox regression models adjusted for potential confounders. RESULTS Median age (25th-75th percentile) and eGFR of the outpatients (35 % women) were 76 (69-81) years and 32.1 (20.8-41.7) ml/min/1.73 m2, respectively. During a median follow-up period of 5.2 years, there were 22 deaths, 117 30 % eGFR reductions, 48 KRTs, and 18 admissions owing to MACEs. The osteosarcopenia group rather than the only low BMD or only sarcopenia groups exhibited a higher risk of the primary (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.28, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.52-7.08) and kidney composite (HR: 2.07, 95 % CI: 1.10-3.89) outcomes. Among the osteosarcopenia-related body compositions and physical functions, low handgrip strength (HGS) was strongly associated with a high risk of primary and kidney composite outcomes (HR: 2.44, 95 % CI: 1.46-4.08; HR: 1.48, 95 % CI: 0.97-2.24, respectively). The increase in HGS but not the body mass index, skeletal muscle mass index, or BMD was associated with lower risks of primary and kidney composite outcomes (HR: 0.93, 95 % CI: 0.89-0.98; HR: 0.96, 95 % CI: 0.92-0.99 per 1 kg, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Osteosarcopenia was associated with poor survival and kidney outcomes in older patients with CKD. Low HGS, which is common in patients with osteosarcopenia and CKD, was associated with increased mortality risk and kidney function decline. These findings can help the risk prediction and pathogenesis of the kidney-bone-muscle axis and improving muscle strength can help mitigate CKD progression.

Abstract
Introduction According to reports, obesity has a significant impact on bone health. And the weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI), superior to BMI and waist circumference (WC), is a new obesity indicator arising in recent years. This research investigated the relationship between WWI and total bone mineral density (BMD) for adults aged 20 to 59. Methods Using data from the 2011-2018 NHANES, we looked into the independent link between WWI and total BMD as well as its nonlinearity using weighted multiple linear regression and smooth curve fitting. Two-stage linear regression models were employed to calculate the threshold effects. There were additional subgroup analyses and testing for interactions. Results Multiple linear regression studies on a total of 10,372 individuals showed a significant inverse link between WWI and total BMD in adults between 20 and 59 [β = -0.04, 95% CI: (-0.04, -0.03), P<0.0001]. And smoking, race, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) had no significant effect on this negative connection (P for interaction >0.05). In addition, we found a nonlinear relationship between WWI and total BMD in diabetic and CKD patients, for which the saturation point was 11.38 cm/√kg in the CKD patient group and 10.29 cm/√kg in the diabetic patient group. Conclusion Our analysis demonstrated a significant inverse association between WWI and total BMD in adults aged 20-59.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder that causes impairment of bone structure and strength, leading to a progressively increased risk of fragility fractures. The global prevalence of osteoporosis is increasing in the ageing population. Owing to the chronic character of osteoporosis, years or even decades of preventive measures or therapy are required. The long-term use of bone-specific pharmacological treatment options, including antiresorptive and/or osteoanabolic approaches, has raised concerns around adverse effects or potential rebound phenomena after treatment discontinuation. Imaging options, risk scores and the assessment of bone turnover during initiation and monitoring of such therapies could help to inform individualized treatment strategies. Combination therapies are currently used less often than 'sequential' treatments. However, all patients with osteoporosis, including those with secondary and rare causes of osteoporosis, as well as specific patient populations (for example, young adults, men and pregnant women) require new approaches for long-term therapy and disease monitoring. New pathophysiological aspects of bone metabolism might therefore help to inform and revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a systemic inflammatory state. We assessed the effects of exercise on inflammatory markers in individuals with CKD. An electronic search was conducted, including MEDLINE. Experimental clinical trials that investigated the effects of exercise on inflammatory markers in individuals with CKD at all stages were included. Meta-analyses were conducted using the random-effects model and standard mean difference (SMD). Subgroup analyses were performed for resistance, aerobic, and combined exercise interventions. Twenty-nine studies were included in the meta-analyses. Exercise interventions showed significant reductions in C-reactive protein (CRP) (SMD: -0.23; 95% CI: -0.39 to -0.06), interleukin (IL)-6 (SMD: -0.35; 95% CI: -0.57, -0.14), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) (SMD: -0.63, 95% CI: -1.01, -0.25) when compared with the controls. IL-10 levels significantly increased (SMD: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.09, 1.23) with exercise interventions. Resistance interventions significantly decreased CRP (SMD: -0.39, 95% CI: -0.69, -0.09) and TNF-α (SMD: -0.72, 95% CI: -1.20, -0.23) levels, while increasing IL-10 levels (SMD: 0.57, 95% CI: 0.04, 1.09). Aerobic interventions only significantly reduced IL-6 levels (SMD: -0.26, 95% CI: -0.51, -0.01). No significant changes in any inflammatory markers were observed with combined exercise interventions. Exercise interventions are effective as an anti-inflammatory therapy in individuals with CKD compared to usual care control groups. Resistance interventions seem to promote greater anti-inflammatory effects.
