Sports Med 2024:10.1007/s40279-024-02052-x. [PMID: 38900358 DOI: 10.1007/s40279-024-02052-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of swimming on bone health remains unclear, namely due to discrepant findings between studies in humans and animal models. OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to identify the available evidence on the effects of swimming on bone mass, geometry and microarchitecture at the lumbar spine, femur and tibia in both humans and rodent animal models. METHODS The study followed PRISMA guidelines and was registered at PROSPERO (CRD4202236347 and CRD42022363714 for human and animal studies). Two different systematic literature searches were conducted in PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science, retrieving 36 and 16 reports for humans and animal models, respectively. RESULTS In humans, areal bone mineral density (aBMD) was similar between swimmers and non-athletic controls at the lumbar spine, hip and femoral neck. Swimmers' tibia diaphysis showed a higher cross-sectional area but lower cortical thickness. Inconsistent findings at the femoral neck cortical thickness were found. Due to the small number of studies, trabecular microarchitecture in human swimmers was not assessed. In rodent models, aBMD was found to be lower at the tibia, but similar at the femur. Inconsistent findings in femur diaphysis cross-sectional area were observed. No differences in femur and tibia trabecular microarchitecture were found. CONCLUSION Swimming seems to affect bone health differently according to anatomical region. Studies in both humans and rodent models suggest that tibia cortical bone is negatively affected by swimming. There was no evidence of a negative effect of swimming on other bone regions, both in humans and animal models.

[PMID: 38880171 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117170] [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: 04/09/2024] [Revised: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Research on body composition phenotypes and bone health in adolescents is limited. Hence, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between different body composition phenotypes, bone mineral content, and bone metabolism markers in Chinese adolescents. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 1852 adolescents aged 12 to 18 years were selected from six schools in Yinchuan City between 2017 and 2020 using stratified cluster random sampling. The participant's body composition and bone mineral content (BMC) were measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Serum bone metabolic markers (OC, CTX, and Ca) were measured. Based on their FMI and LMI, individuals were categorized into four body composition phenotypes: low fat mass-low lean mass (LFMI-LLMI), low fat mass-high lean mass (LFMI-HLMI), high fat mass-high lean mass (HFMI-HLMI), high fat mass-low lean mass (HFMI-LLMI). RESULTS There was a statistically significant difference between the four different body composition phenotypes with BMC, CTX and Ca in boys (all P < 0.05), similar conclusions were found in girls, except the OC and CTX. After adjusting for age, gender, smoking, drinking, and others, compared with the LFMI-HLMI reference group, the two high FMI groups (HFMI-LLMI and HFMI-HLMI) had a greater negative correlation with BMC, while the low BMC risk of the HFMI-LLMI group was the highest (OR = 33.28; 95%CI: 11.12-99.63; P < 0.001). The correlation between BMC of different body composition phenotypes in boys was greater than that in girls. HFMI-HLMI is a risk phenotype negatively associated with Ca content (β = -0.12; 95%CI: -0.19 to -0.04; P < 0.05). Regardless of body composition level, BMC was always negatively correlated with fat mass (LLMI: β = -0.27; 95%CI: -0.32-0.21; HLMI: β = -0.52, 95%CI: -0.65-0.40) and positively correlated with lean mass (LFMI: β =0.24; 95%CI: 0.20-0.28; HFMI: β =0.23, 95%CI:0.13-0.33) (all P < 0.001). The fat mass showed different correlations with OC and CTX in girls and boys based on LLMI or HLMI (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION HFMI-LLMI is a risk phenotype of low BMC in Chinese adolescents, and the relationship between fat mass and bone metabolism markers is affected by lean body mass and gender.

Bone 2024; 186:117168. [PMID: 38878990 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117168] [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: 04/16/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Unhealthy sleep behaviors are associated with higher risks of osteoporosis (OP), while prospective evidence is limited. This study aimed to prospectively investigate this association, quantify the attributable burden of OP incidence reduction due to unhealthy sleep behaviors, and explore potential modifications by genetic risk factors. METHODS This longitudinal cohort study was conducted utilizing data from the UK Biobank, comprising 293,164 participants initially free of OP and with requisite sleep behaviors data at baseline. We followed the participants after recruitment until November 30, 2022, to ascertain incident OP. We assessed the associations of five sleep behaviors including sleep duration, chronotype, insomnia, daytime napping, and morning wake-up difficulties, as well as sleep behavior patterns identified based on the above sleep behaviors, with the risk of OP, using Cox models adjusted for multiple confounders. The analyses were then performed separately among individuals with different OP susceptibility, indexed by standard polygenetic risk scores(PRS) for OP. Our secondary outcome was OP with pathologic fracture. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were performed. Additionally, attributable risk percent in the exposed population (AR%) and population attributable fraction (PAF) of sleep behaviors were calculated. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 13.7 years, 8253 new-onset OP cases were documented. Unhealthy sleep behaviors, such as long or short sleep duration, insomnia, daytime napping, morning wake-up difficulties, and unhealthy sleep patterns, were associated with elevated risks of OP (HRs ranging from 1.14 to 1.46, all P-value <0.001) compared to healthy sleep behaviors. Similar associations were observed for OP with pathologic fractures. Insomnia exhibited the largest AR% of 39.98 % (95%CI: 36.46, 43.31) and PAF of 33.25 % (95%CI: 30.00, 36.34) among healthy sleep patterns and components. A statistically significant multiplicative interaction was noted between sleep behaviors and OP PRS on OP risk (all P-interaction <0.001). CONCLUSIONS Four unhealthy sleep behaviors and sleep behavior patterns were associated to increased OP risk, with insomnia contributing the most to OP incidence, while genetic risk for OP modified this association. These findings underscore the crucial role of adhering to healthy sleep behaviors for effective OP prevention.

The Association Between CYP2R1 rs10741657 Polymorphisms and Bone Variables, Vitamin D, and Calcium in Iranian Children and Adolescents: A Cross-Sectional Study. Biochem Genet 2024:10.1007/s10528-024-10826-1. [PMID: 38834820 DOI: 10.1007/s10528-024-10826-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024]
Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common disorder with a strong genetic component. Bone mineral density (BMD), vitamin D, and calcium levels declining are a main contributor of osteoporosis and fragility fractures. This cross-sectional study designed to explore the possible link between CYP2R1 rs10741657 polymorphism and BMD of the total hip, lumbar spine and femoral neck, vitamin D, and calcium in Iranian children and adolescents. 247 children and adolescents (127 girls and 120 boys) between 9 and 18 years old from Kawar (an urban area located 50 km east of Shiraz, the capital city of the Fars province in the south of Iran) were randomly selected based on age-stratified systematic sampling and recruited for genetic analysis. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method was used for genotyping CYP2R1 rs10741657. Anthropometric, biochemical, and bone mineral density (BMD) parameters were also measured. The results specified that in the dominant [P < 0.0001, - 2.943 (- 4.357-1.529)] and over-dominant [P < 0.0001, 2.789 (1.369-4.209)] models, vitamin D concentration significantly differed between genotypes. The highest vitamin D levels were displayed for participants carrying the rs10741657 AG genotype (16.47 ng/ml). In regard to calcium, in a dominant model [P = 0.012, 0.194 (0.043-0.345)] and over-dominant model [P = 0.008, 0.206 (- 0.357-0.055), there was a significant association. AG genotype displayed the highest (9.96 mg/dl) and GG genotype the lowest (9.75 mg/dl) calcium values. This study reported the association of CYP2R1 rs10741657 polymorphisms with calcium and vitamin D levels in Iranian children and adolescents.

The Prevalence and Risk Factors of Low Bone Mineral Density in the Population of the Abay Region of Kazakhstan. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2024; 21:681. [PMID: 38928928 PMCID: PMC11204070 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph21060681] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2024] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Osteoporosis is considered a serious public health problem that particularly affects the postmenopausal period. In 2018, in the Republic of Kazakhstan, the prevalence of osteoporosis was 10.0, and the incidence was 3.7 new cases, per 100,000 adults, respectively. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of osteoporosis and indicate the main factors affecting low bone mineral density by screening the adult population of the Abay region, Kazakhstan. The target group comprised 641 respondents aged between 18 and 65 years old, from a Kazakh population, who had been living in the Abay region since birth. All participants filled out a questionnaire and were subjected to a bone mineral density measurement by means of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) between 15 July 2023 and 29 February 2024. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between low bone mineral density and key demographic characteristics, such as lifestyle factors and nutritional habits. We identified the prevalence of low bone mass (osteopenia) and osteoporosis to be 34.1%, with the highest prevalence of 48.3% being found in the older population group (50+ years). The regression analysis revealed a number of indicators associated with the likelihood of bone sparing. However, only four of these showed significance in the final multivariate model (R2 = 22.4%). These were age (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 1.05) and fracture history (AOR 1.64) directly associated with the likelihood of low bone density. Meanwhile, the body mass index (AOR 0.92) and the consumption of nuts and dried fruits (AOR 0.48) reduced the chance of bone tissue demineralization. Additional studies examining the prevalence and any emerging risk factors for osteoporosis are needed to advance clinical epidemiological knowledge and implement public health programs.

Abstract
The silent information regulator T1 (SIRT1) is linked to longevity and is a crucial mediator of osteoblast function. We investigated the direct role of Sirt1 during bone modeling and remodeling stages in vivo using Tamoxifen-inducible osteoblast-specific Sirt1 conditional knockout (cKO) mice. cKO mice exhibited lower trabecular and cortical bone mass in the distal femur. These phenotypes were coupled with lower bone formation and bone resorption. Metabolomics analysis revealed that the metabolites involved in glycolysis were significantly decreased in cKO mice. Further analysis of the quantitative acetylome revealed 11 proteins with upregulated acetylation levels in both the femur and calvaria of cKO mice. Cross-analysis identified four proteins with the same upregulated lysine acetylation site in both the femur and calvaria of cKO mice. A combined analysis of the metabolome and acetylome, as well as immunoprecipitation, gene knockout, and site-mutation experiments, revealed that Sirt1 deletion inhibited glycolysis by directly binding to and increasing the acetylation level of Glutamine oxaloacetic transaminase 1 (GOT1). In conclusion, our study suggested that Sirt1 played a crucial role in regulating osteoblast metabolism to maintain bone homeostasis through its deacetylase activity on GOT1. These findings provided a novel insight into the potential targeting of osteoblast metabolism for the treatment of bone-related diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many authors consider running to be a protective physical activity (PA) in bone health. However, many studies also show inconsistencies in their results. The objective of the study is to analyze the effect of cumulative loading rate (TCL) on the bone mass of middle-aged runners and non-runners is assessed. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 322 individuals. There were 212 runners (109 male, 103 female) and those were individuals who did >10 km of running per week. There were 110 non-runners (54 male, 56 female). This group included individuals who did not adhere to the WHO (2020) recommendations for PA. The average age in the individual groups ranged from 40.9±4.1 to 42.3±4.8 years. Bone parameters were measured on the lower extremities and vertebral spine using the DXA method (Hologic QDR Horizon A). Multi-regression dependencies analysis was used to assess the results. RESULTS The results of the multi-regression dependencies analysis showed that the bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) are significantly influenced by the TCL and gender. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, we can conclude that running could be a suitable PA for preventing the reduction of BMD in the middle-aged population, especially in the lower limbs.

Abstract
Bone Health Index (BHI) has been proposed as a useful instrument for assessing bone health in children. However, its relationship with fracture risk remains unknown. We aimed to investigate whether BHI is associated with bone mineral density (BMD) and prevalent fracture odds in children from the Generation R Study. We also implemented genome-wide association study (GWAS) and polygenic score (PGS) approaches to improve our understanding of BHI and its potential. In total, 4150 children (49.4 % boys; aged 9.8 years) with genotyped data and bone assessments were included in this study. BMD was measured across the total body (less head following ISCD guidelines) using a GE-Lunar iDXA densitometer; and BHI was determined from the hand DXA scans using BoneXpert®. Fractures were self-reported collected with home questionnaires. The association of BHI with BMD and fractures was evaluated using linear models corrected for age, sex, ethnicity, height, and weight. We observed a positive correlation between BHI and BMD (ρ = 0.32, p-value<0.0001). Further, every SD decrease in BHI was associated with an 11 % increased risk of prevalent fractures (OR:1.11, 95 % CI 1.00-1.24, p-value = 0.05). Our BHI GWAS identified variants (lead SNP rs1404264-A, p-value = 2.61 × 10-14) mapping to the ING3/CPED1/WNT16 locus. Children in the extreme tails of the BMD PGS presented a difference in BHI values of -0.10 standard deviations (95% CI -0.14 to -0.07; p-value<0.0001). On top of the demonstrated epidemiological association of BHI with both BMD and fracture risk, our results reveal a partially shared biological background between BHI and BMD. These findings highlight the potential value of using BHI to screen children at risk of fracture.

Cui A, Xiao P, Wei X, Wen H, Liang S, Wang P, He J, Zhuang Y. Associations Between Serum Selenium and Bone Mineral Density in 8-19-year-old children and adolescents: NHANES 2013-2018. Biol Trace Elem Res 2024; 202:1928-1936. [PMID: 37606880 DOI: 10.1007/s12011-023-03808-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 08/23/2023]
Abstract
The peak bone mass (PBM) in puberty has been proven to be a critical determinant of osteoporosis and brittle fractures in the elderly. Selenium is an essential trace element that could influence bone metabolism in our bodies. However, no study has investigated the impact of selenium status on bone mineral density (BMD) among children and adolescents. This was a cross-section study from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) in the USA involving participants aged 8-19 years. We conducted multiple linear regression models to assess the relationship between selenium status and BMD among children and adolescents, and then stratified analyses were performed according to genders and races. Smooth curve fits and two-piecewise linear regression models were conducted to explore their nonlinear relationship. A total of 4570 participants (2338 boys and 2232 girls) were included in the present study, with a mean age of 13.57 ± 3.41 years. In the multivariable adjustment model, serum selenium was positively associated with lumbar spine BMD (β = 0.021 95% CI: 0.008, 0.034, P = 0.001). The dose-response analyses indicated a non-linear inverted U-shaped relationship between serum selenium and lumbar spine BMD. Lower and higher selenium concentrations were related to decreased BMD, and the inflection point of serum selenium was 2.60 umol/L. The inverted U-shaped association was also observed in females (inflection point: 2.49 umol/L), males (inflection point: 2.65 umol/L), Non-Hispanic White (inflection point: 2.50 umol/L), Non-Hispanic Black (inflection point: 2.50 umol/L), and other races (Including multi-racial) (inflection point: 2.81 umol/L). Our study first shows a non-linear inversed U-shaped association between selenium status and BMD among children and adolescents. The proper selenium status will benefit bone health in children and adolescents. More research is still required to verify our findings and their potential mechanisms.

[PMID: 38655984 PMCID: PMC11034701 DOI: 10.1590/1516-3180.2023.0266.r1.08022024] [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: 08/06/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis, characterized by decreased bone density and increased fracture risk, imposes significant physical, psychosocial, and financial burdens. Early detection and prevention are crucial for managing osteoporosis and reducing the risk of fractures. OBJECTIVES To investigate the relationship between Hepatitis A seropositivity and bone mineral density (BMD) in adolescents and adults and to explore the potential link between Hepatitis A infection and osteoporosis risk. DESIGN AND SETTING This cross-sectional study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2011 to 2018 to evaluate the association between hepatitis A seropositivity and BMD in 15,693 participants. METHODS Multivariable regression analysis was used to calculate the mean BMD and standard error for adolescents and adults, followed by an independent z-test to determine whether there was a significant difference between the seropositive and seronegative groups. RESULTS Hepatitis A seropositive adolescents and adults had lower BMD than their seronegative counterparts, with significant differences in lumber spine (mean difference = -0.03 g/cm2, P < 0.01 for both age groups) and pelvis BMDs (mean difference = -0.02 g/cm2, P < 0.01 for the adult age groups), after adjusting for various covariates. CONCLUSIONS This study confirmed that both adolescent and adult individuals seropositive for Hepatitis A antibodies had reduced BMD among both adolescents and adults, especially in the adult group. This finding suggests a possible link between Hepatitis A infection and risk of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Environmental factors and genetic variation individually impact bone. However, it is not clear how these factors interact to influence peak bone mass accrual. Here we tested whether genetically programmed high bone formation driven by missense mutations in the Lrp5 gene (Lrp5A214V) altered the sensitivity of mice to an environment of inadequate dietary calcium (Ca) intake. Weanling male Lrp5A214V mice and wildtype littermates (control) were fed AIN-93G diets with 0.125%, 0.25%, 0.5% (reference, basal), or 1% Ca from weaning until 12 weeks of age (ie, during bone growth). Urinary Ca, serum Ca, Ca regulatory hormones (PTH, 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3)), bone parameters (μCT, ash), and renal/intestinal gene expression were analyzed. As expected, low dietary Ca intake negatively impacted bones and Lrp5A214V mice had higher bone mass and ash content. Although bones of Lrp5A214V mice have more matrix to mineralize, their bones were not more susceptible to low dietary Ca intake. In control mice, low dietary Ca intake exerted expected effects on serum Ca (decreased), PTH (increased), and 1,25(OH)2D3 (increased) as well as their downstream actions (ie, reducing urinary Ca, increasing markers of intestinal Ca absorption). In contrast, Lrp5A214V mice had elevated serum Ca with a normal PTH response but a blunted 1,25(OH)2D3 response to low dietary Ca that was reflected in the renal 1,25(OH)2D3 producing/degrading enzymes, Cyp27b1 and Cyp24a1. Despite elevated serum Ca in Lrp5A214V mice, urinary Ca was not elevated. Despite an abnormal serum 1,25(OH)2D3 response to low dietary Ca, intestinal markers of Ca absorption (Trpv6, S100g mRNA) were elevated in Lrp5A214V mice and responded to low Ca intake. Collectively, our data indicate that the Lrp5A214V mutation induces changes in Ca homeostasis that permit mice to retain more Ca and support their high bone mass phenotype.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is the most common bone disorder. Our data gives an estimate of around 5.87 million cases of osteoporosis in the general German population in 2018. Only 30% of insured individuals who suffered an osteoporotic fracture and/or had a confirmed diagnosis of osteoporosis, received an appropriate prescription. PURPOSE Osteoporosis is the most common bone disorder. It particularly affects elderly people and increases the risk of atraumatic fractures. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of osteoporosis in the general German population aged ≥ 50 years and to collect data on the frequency of prescription of osteoporosis-specific medication in order to assess the treatment gap. METHODS Retrospective analysis of anonymized data of individuals aged ≥ 50 years insured under statutory healthcare schemes from the database of the Institute for Applied Health Research Berlin (InGef) for 2018 (study population). Insured individuals with osteoporosis were identified based on osteoporosis diagnoses, osteoporosis-specific prescriptions, or osteoporotic fractures. Thus, we estimated the prevalence of osteoporosis in the general German population aged ≥ 50 years. The prevalence of diagnoses, fractures, and prescriptions was determined for the study population and stratified by age and gender. RESULTS Within the study population of 1,599,299 insured individuals, a prevalence of osteoporosis of 15.9% was determined. This estimated approximately 5.87 million cases of osteoporosis for the general German population. 81.6% of the cases were women. Osteoporosis-specific prescriptions were received by 30.0% of the insured individuals in the study population who had been diagnosed with osteoporosis and/or suffered an osteoporotic fracture. CONCLUSIONS Germany has a high prevalence of osteoporosis. Only a small portion of individuals who may require osteoporosis-specific treatment actually receive it.

Abstract
The 'diabetic bone paradox' suggested that type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients would have higher areal bone mineral density (BMD) but higher fracture risk than individuals without T2D. In this study, we found that the genetically predicted T2D was associated with higher BMD and lower risk of fracture in both weighted genetic risk score (wGRS) and two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. We also identified ten genomic loci shared between T2D and fracture, with the top signal at SNP rs4580892 in the intron of gene RSPO3. And the higher expression in adipose subcutaneous and higher protein level in plasma of RSPO3 were associated with increased risk of T2D, but decreased risk of fracture. In the prospective study, T2D was observed to be associated with higher risk of fracture, but BMI mediated 30.2% of the protective effect. However, when stratified by the T2D-related risk factors for fracture, we observed that the effect of T2D on the risk of fracture decreased when the number of T2D-related risk factors decreased, and the association became non-significant if the T2D patients carried none of the risk factors. In conclusion, the genetically determined T2D might not be associated with higher risk of fracture. And the shared genetic architecture between T2D and fracture suggested a top signal around RSPO3 gene. The observed effect size of T2D on fracture risk decreased if the T2D-related risk factors could be eliminated. Therefore, it is important to manage the complications of T2D to prevent the risk of fracture.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study examined correlations among anthropometric parameters, body composition, bone parameters and predictive factors of bone mass in adolescent girls with different body fat percentages (%fat). METHODS A total of 129 females aged 15-18 years were categorized into 3 groups using %fat-for-age at the 50th and 95th percentiles as cutoff points (normal, over, and excess %fat groups). We recorded anthropometric data and measured the speed of sound at the tibia and radius using quantitative ultrasound. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to measure body composition and bone parameters, including bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), and the BMD-z-score (z-score) in the lumbar spine (LS) and whole body (WB). These parameters were compared among the 3 groups using bivariate and multivariate correlation analyses. RESULTS There were strong correlations among all anthropometric parameters, body composition, and DXA in the over %fat group. Lean parameters strongly correlated with LS and WB in the normal %fat group, whereas both lean mass (LM) and fat mass (FM) were positively correlated with BMC in the excess %fat group. The predictive factors of bone mass differed among the groups, as follows: lean body mass was predictive of BMD and BMC at both sites in the normal and over %fat groups; LM and body weight were predictive of LS-BMC and WB-bones, respectively, in the over %fat group; and FM was predictive of WB-bones in the excess %fat group. Body fat and waist circumference were negative predictors of bone mass. CONCLUSION Predictive factors of bone strength appear to depend on the amount of body fat in adolescent girls.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the effect of amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) supplementation on bone growth in growing rats. METHODS We used 3-week-old male Wistar rats to simulate childhood and adolescent growth stages. Rats were divided into four groups as follows: a control group (C), a low-dose group (L, 20.65 mg/kg body weight (BW) ACC), a medium-dose group (M, 206.5 mg/kg BW ACC), and a high-dose group (H, 413 mg/kg BW ACC) administered by gavage. Body length (BL) and BW were measured weekly. The bone mineral density (BMD) of two lumbar vertebrae (L3 and L4) and the left femur were analyzed by micro-computed tomography (μCT) at 0, 4, 8, and 12 weeks. At the end of 12 weeks, the rats were sacrificed. After that, blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta. Femurs and tibias were collected and weighed, and their lengths were measured. Then, bone samples were used to perform histopathological and histomorphometric analyses. RESULTS It showed that ACC supplementation in growing rats increased the trabecular bone thickness and serum bone formation biomarkers. Furthermore, high-dose ACC decreased serum bone resorption biomarkers and increased BMD. CONCLUSIONS ACC supplementation can enhance osteoblast metabolism and inhibit osteoclast metabolism, resulting in a higher bone formation rate compared to bone resorption. This led to increased trabecular bone thickness, a higher BMD, and supported bone growth.

Abstract
Evidence of the associations of air pollution and musculoskeletal diseases is inconsistent. This study aimed to examine the associations between air pollutants and the risk of incident musculoskeletal diseases, such as degenerative joint diseases (n = 38,850) and inflammatory arthropathies (n = 20,108). An air pollution score was constructed to assess the combined effect of PM2.5, PM2.5-10, NO2, and NOX. Cox proportional hazard model was applied to assess the relationships between air pollutants and the incidence of each musculoskeletal disease. The air pollution scores exhibited the modest association with an increased risk of osteoporosis (HR = 1.006, 95% CI: 1.002-1.011). Among the individual air pollutants, PM2.5 and PM2.5-10 exhibited the most significant effect on elevated risk of musculoskeletal diseases, such as PM2.5 on osteoporosis (HR = 1.064, 95% CI: 1.020-1.110), PM2.5-10 on inflammatory arthropathies (HR = 1.059, 95% CI: 1.037-1.081). Females were found to have a higher risk of incident musculoskeletal diseases when exposed to air pollutants. Individuals with extreme BMI or lower socioeconomic status had a higher risk of developing musculoskeletal diseases. Our findings reveal that long-term exposure to ambient air pollutants may contribute to an increased risk of musculoskeletal diseases.

Abstract
Resumen
Objetivos
El metabolismo óseo se encuentra alterado en la diabetes mellitus (DM). El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la relación entre los marcadores de remodelado óseo (MRO), los polimorfismos en el gen receptor de la vitamina D (VDR) y la densidad mineral ósea (DMO) en la DM tipo 1 (T1D) y tipo 2 (T2D).
Métodos
Se incluyó a 165 pacientes (53 T1D y 112 T2D). La DMO se midió mediante absorciometría de rayos X de energía dual (DEXA). Se realizó un análisis de la osteocalcina (OC) en plasma, beta-CrossLaps (β-CTX), propéptido aminoterminal del procolágeno tipo 1 (P1NP) y los polimorfismos en el gen VDR.
Resultados
Se incluyó a 53 pacientes con T1D (41 años (31–48)) y 112 con T2D (60 años [51–66]). No se observaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en relación a la DMO. Los pacientes con T1D presentaron niveles superiores de OC (p<0,001) y P1NP (p<0,001). Las áreas bajo la curva para la predicción de patología ósea para la OC fueron 0,732 (p=0,038) en T1D y 0,697 (p=0,007) en T2D. Se observó una relación estadísticamente significativa entre el alelo A de BsmI (p=0,03), el alelo A de ApaI (p=0,04) y el alelo C de Taql (p=0,046) y una menor DMO. Así mismo, se encontró una correlación significativa entre los niveles elevados de OC y el alelo G de BsmI (p=0,044), el alelo C de ApaI (p=0,011), el alelo T de Taql (p=0,006) y el alelo C de FokI (p=0,004).
Conclusiones
El elevado valor predictivo negativo del punto de corte de la OC indica que la OC podría ser útil a la hora de descartar el riesgo de pérdida ósea, lo que permitiría diseñar un tratamiento personalizado para prevenir dicha patología.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this review and meta-analysis is to characterize the changes in body composition of children and adolescents who underwent bariatric surgery and identify possible negative effects of performing this procedure during pediatric ages. RECENT FINDINGS Bariatric surgery in children and adolescents is an emerging strategy to promote higher and faster body weight and fat mass losses. However, possible negative effects usually observed in surgical patients' muscle-skeletal system raise a major concern perform this intervention during growth. Despite these possible issues, most experimental studies and reviews analyze bariatric surgery's effectiveness only by assessing anthropometric outcomes such as body weight and BMI, disregarding the short- and long-term impact of bariatric surgery on all body composition outcomes. Bariatric surgery is effective to reduce fat mass in adolescents, as well as body weight, waist circumference, and BMI. Significant reduction in lean mass and fat-free mass is also observed. Bone mass seems not to be impaired. All outcomes reduction were observed only in the first 12 months after surgery. Sensitivity analysis suggests possible sex and type of surgery-related differences, favoring a higher fat mass, body weight, and BMI losses in boys and in patients who underwent RYGB.

Abstract
Objectives Bone metabolism is impaired in diabetes mellitus (DM). Our objective is to evaluate the association of bone turnover markers (BTM) and vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms with bone mineral density (BMD) in DM type 1 (T1D) and DM type 2 (T2D). Methods A total of 165 patients (53 T1D and 112 T2D) were enrolled. BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Plasma osteocalcin (OC), beta-CrossLaps (β-CTX) and N-amino terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP) and VDR gene polymorphisms were evaluated. Results Participants were 53 T1D (41 years [31-48]) and 112 T2D (60 years [51-66]). BMD were not statistically different between the groups. OC (p<0.001) and P1NP levels (p<0.001) were higher in patients with T1D. The areas under the curve for the prediction of bone pathology were 0.732 (p=0.038) for OC in T1D and 0.697 (p=0.007) in T2D. A significant association was found between lower lumbar BMD and the A allele of BsmI (p=0.03), the A allele of ApaI (p=0.04) and the allele C of the Taql (p=0.046). Also, a significant correlation was found with higher OC levels and the G allele of BsmI (p=0.044), C allele of ApaI (p=0.011), T allele of Taql (p=0.006) and with C allele of FokI (p=0.004). Conclusions The high negative predictive value of the cut-off point for OC suggests that could be useful in excluding the risk suffering bone loss, allowing offering a personalized clinical approach to prevent this pathology.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, a metabolic bone disease characterized by low bone mineral density and deterioration of bone microarchitecture, has led to a high risk of fatal osteoporotic fractures worldwide. Accumulating evidence has revealed that sexual dimorphism is a notable feature of osteoporosis, with sex-specific differences in epidemiology and pathogenesis. Specifically, females are more susceptible than males to osteoporosis, while males are more prone to disability or death from the disease. To date, sex chromosome abnormalities and steroid hormones have been proven to contribute greatly to sexual dimorphism in osteoporosis by regulating the functions of bone cells. Understanding the sex-specific differences in osteoporosis and its related complications is essential for improving treatment strategies tailored to women and men. This literature review focuses on the mechanisms underlying sexual dimorphism in osteoporosis, mainly in a population of aging patients, chronic glucocorticoid administration, and diabetes. Moreover, we highlight the implications of sexual dimorphism for developing therapeutics and preventive strategies and screening approaches tailored to women and men. Additionally, the challenges in translating bench research to bedside treatments and future directions to overcome these obstacles will be discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Preliminary data suggested that bone mineral density (BMD) in transgender adults before initiating gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) is lower when compared to cisgender controls. In this study, we analyzed bone metabolism in a sample of transgender adults before GAHT, and its possible correlation with biochemical profile, body composition and lifestyle habits (i.e., tobacco smoke and physical activity). METHODS Medical data, smoking habits, phospho-calcic and hormonal blood tests and densitometric parameters were collected in a sample of 125 transgender adults, 78 Assigned Females At Birth (AFAB) and 47 Assigned Males At Birth (AMAB) before GAHT initiation and 146 cisgender controls (57 females and 89 males) matched by sex assigned at birth and age. 55 transgender and 46 cisgender controls also underwent a complete body composition evaluation and assessment of physical activity using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). RESULTS 14.3% of transgender and 6.2% of cisgender sample, respectively, had z-score values < -2 (p = 0.04). We observed only lower vitamin D values in transgender sample regarding biochemical/hormonal profile. AFAB transgender people had more total fat mass, while AMAB transgender individuals had reduced total lean mass as compared to cisgender people (53.94 ± 7.74 vs 58.38 ± 6.91, p < 0.05). AFAB transgender adults were more likely to be active smokers and tend to spend more time indoor. Fat Mass Index (FMI) was correlated with lumbar and femur BMD both in transgender individuals, while no correlations were found between lean mass parameters and BMD in AMAB transgender people. CONCLUSIONS Body composition and lifestyle factors could contribute to low BMD in transgender adults before GAHT.

Abstract
Despite strontium ranelate use in osteoporosis management being one of the promising concepts in disease treatment, there is no clear evidence that strontium organic compounds are more effective than inorganic ones. The aim of this study was to compare strontium chlorate and strontium ranelate influence on the mice bone microarchitecture. We investigated whether strontium chlorate (7.532 mmol/L) and strontium ranelate (7.78 mmol/L) solutions fed to healthy SWISS growing mice (n = 42) had an influence on the percent of bone volume (BV/TV), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), number of trabeculae (Tb.N), and separation between each trabecula (Tb.Sp) in the chosen ROI (region of interest) in the distal metaphysis of the left femurs. The cortical bone surface was examined close to the ROI proximal scan. There was an increase in each examined parameter compared with the control group. There were no statistical differences between strontium ranelate and strontium chlorate parameters. Our study indicates that organic and inorganic strontium compounds similarly affect the bone microarchitecture and strength.

Abstract
Animal and human studies have suggested that trihalomethane (THM) has toxicity to bone. In this study, we included adolescents from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey who had quantified blood and tap water THM concentrations [chloroform (TCM), bromodichloromethane (BDCM), dibromochloromethane (DBCM), and bromoform (TBM)] and lumbar spine or total body less head (TBLH) bone mineral density (BMD). A 2.7-fold increase in concentrations of blood TCM, DBCM, chlorinated THMs (the sum of TCM, BDCM, and DBCM), and total THMs (the sum of 4 THMs) was associated with lower lumbar spine BMD z-scores by -0.06 [95% confidence interval (CI): -0.12, -0.01], -0.06 (95% CI: -0.11, -0.003), -0.08 (95% CI: -0.14, -0.02), and -0.07 (95% CI: -0.13, -0.003), respectively, in adjusted models. Similarly, a 2.7-fold increase in blood BDCM, DBCM, and chlorinated THM concentrations was associated with lower TBLH BMD z-scores by -0.10 (95% CI: -0.17, -0.02), -0.10 (95% CI: -0.17, -0.03), and -0.11 (95% CI: -0.20, -0.01), respectively. Low-to-moderate predictive power was attained when tap water THM concentrations were used to predict blood THM measurements. Notably, the inverse associations for blood THMs persisted exclusively between water concentrations of DBCM and Br-THMs and the TBLH BMD z-scores. Our findings suggest that exposure to THMs may adversely affect the adolescent BMD.

Jia P, Yuan J. Weight change patterns across adulthood in relation to osteoporosis and fracture among non-obese individuals. Arch Osteoporos 2023; 19:2. [PMID: 38097861 DOI: 10.1007/s11657-023-01362-3] [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: 07/01/2023] [Accepted: 12/02/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023]
Abstract
Weight change was an influencing factor of osteoporosis and fracture in a controversial way. Based on a nationally representative data, we found that weight change from obesity in midlife to non-obesity in late adulthood was associated with a reduction in the risk of osteoporosis and wrist fracture in male, but not in female. INTRODUCTION Obesity is usually recognized as a protective factor to osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture. However, it is still unclear whether historical weight status was associated with the risk of osteoporosis and fracture. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between weight change patterns across adulthood and the prevalence of osteoporosis and fracture. METHODS Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) with 8725 US adults aged ≥ 40 years were analyzed in this study. Weight change patterns were categorized as "stable non-obese," "obese with earlier weight gain," "obese with recent weight gain," and "revert to non-obese" based on the body mass index (BMI) at 25 years old, 10 years prior to baseline and at baseline. Body mineral density (BMD) was measured using dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and osteoporosis was diagnosed based on the World Health Organization criteria. Self-reported occurrence of osteoporotic fractures were determined by questionnaires. RESULTS Compared with subjects in "stable non-obese" group, obese with earlier weight gain were positively related to the increase of BMD in both genders, while elevated BMD was only observed in female of "obese with recent weight gain" group and in male of "revert to non-obese" group after multiple adjustment. Moreover, changing from the obesity to non-obesity in the 10 years period before baseline was associated with a 81.6% lower risk of osteoporosis (odds ratio (OR) 0.184, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.037-0.914 (P = 0.039)) and a 69.8% lower risk of wrist fracture (OR 0.302, 95%CI 0.120-0.757 (P = 0.012)) in male, but not in female. CONCLUSION Weight change from obesity in midlife to non-obesity in late adulthood was associated with a reduction in the risk of osteoporosis and wrist fracture in male. Our findings support the importance of investigating the mechanism of weight change in different life period.

Abstract
Nutritional rickets is a global health problem reflecting both historical and contemporary health disparities arising from racial, ethnic, environmental, and geopolitical circumstances. It primarily affects marginalized populations and can contribute to long-term morbidity. Deficits in bone health in childhood may also contribute to osteomalacia/osteoporosis. Solutions require a global public health approach.

Abstract
Introduction Calcium is a vital micronutrient for several physiological processes, yet it remains one of the significant shortfall nutrients among Nigerian adolescents. Objective This study was designed to assess the effect of emotion-based nutrition messages on the consumption of calcium-rich foods among early adolescents in Ogbomoso, Nigeria. Methodology The quasi-experimental study involved 220 adolescents (experimental: 110 and control: 110) selected using a three-stage sampling procedure. A semi-structured, interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect socio-demographic characteristics, dietary practice, calcium-rich foods consumption pattern, calcium intake, and anthropometric parameters. Second, calcium-rich foods consumption pattern was assessed using a food frequency questionnaire, and intake was evaluated using the multi-pass 24-hour dietary recall to define adequacy at intake level ≥1,300 mg per day. Third, the experimental group had five weeks of nutrition education using emotion-based nutrition messages. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Chi-square test at p < 0.05. Results The age of respondents (years) in experimental (12.88±1.41) and control (13.4±1.03) groups was similar. Primary dietary calcium sources were meat, chicken, egg, white beans, cheese, soy milk, oranges, and locust beans at baseline. At post-intervention, intake of other calcium-rich foods such as milk, yogurt, ice cream, okra, sardine, and unripe plantain increased, however, calcium intake remains similar in both control (238.41±92.4 mg; 235.40±92.92 mg) and experimental groups (239.76±51 mg; 241.46±100.89 mg) at baseline and post-intervention, respectively. The overall calcium intake of the adolescents remains below the recommended intake level of 1,300 mg. Conclusion Emotion-based nutritional messages did not significantly increase the total calcium intake among early adolescents.

Abstract
Peak bone mass is the amount of bone tissue that is formed when a stable skeletal state is achieved at a young age. To date, there are no established peak bone mass standards nor clear data on the age at which peak bone mass occurs. At the same time, the level of peak bone mass at a young age is an important predictor of the onset of primary osteoporosis. The purpose of this review is to analyze the results of studies of levels of peak bone mass in general, the age of its onset, as well as factors influencing its formation. Factors such as hormonal levels, body composition, physical activity, nutrition, heredity, smoking, lifestyle, prenatal predictors, intestinal microbiota, and vitamin and micronutrient status were considered, and a comprehensive scheme of the influence of these factors on the level of peak bone mass was created. Determining the standards and timing of the formation of peak bone mass, and the factors affecting it, will help in the development of measures to prevent its shortage and the consequent prevention of osteoporosis and concomitant diseases.

Abstract
The study aims to investigate the independent association of muscle mass (MM) and bone mineral content (BMC) in the performance of the handgrip strength (HGS) test and whether there is effect modification by sex and age. In 12,491 participants from the ELSA-Brasil we estimated the associations between MM, BMC and HGS using linear regression models. All the analyses were performed for total population, also stratified for sex and age. For total population an interaction term was included between each explanatory variable of interest with sex and age to verify the presence of effect modification. We observed that the higher quintiles of MM and BMC were associated to an increasing in the mean of HGS compared to the first quintile, with greater magnitudes in men compared to women, also adults compared to elderly. When we estimated the independent effect of each exposure of interest, MM showed stronger effect in HGS in women, men and adults then BMC. In conclusion, we observed that higher amounts of MM and BMC are associated with higher HGS, regardless of sociodemographic characteristics, health conditions and lifestyle, with this effect being greater in men and adults.

Abstract
Introduction: Exercise is beneficial for increasing areal bone mineral density (aBMD) in adolescence and maintaining it in old age. Moreover, high-impact sports are more effective than low-impact sports in increasing aBMD. This study aimed to determine the types of adolescent sports played in school-based sports clubs associated with aBMD in old age. Methods: In total, 1,596 older adults (681 men and 915 women, age: 65-84 years) living in an urban area of Japan were evaluated for the femoral neck and lumbar spine aBMD using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The association between adolescent sports played in sports clubs and aBMD in old age was analyzed using multiple regression analysis, with femoral neck and lumbar spine aBMD as dependent variables, and sports type and participant characteristics such as age, body weight, and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level, as independent variables. Results: For the femoral neck, basketball was associated with aBMD in older men (β = 0.079, p < 0.05) and women (β = 0.08, p < 0.01), whereas current body weight and 25(OH)D level were associated with aBMD in both sexes. For the lumbar spine, volleyball (β = 0.08, p < 0.01) and swimming (β = 0.06, p < 0.05) was significantly associated with lumbar spine aBMD, whereas current body weight, 25(OH)D, and diabetes mellitus were associated with aBMD in older women. Conclusion: Both men and women who played basketball in adolescence had higher femoral neck aBMD in old age. Moreover, women who played volleyball in adolescence had higher lumbar spine aBMD in old age.

Ambient PM2.5 Exposure and Bone Homeostasis: Analysis of UK Biobank Data and Experimental Studies in Mice and in Vitro. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH PERSPECTIVES 2023; 131:107002. [PMID: 37792558 PMCID: PMC10549986 DOI: 10.1289/ehp11646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 07/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/14/2023] [Indexed: 10/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous evidence has identified exposure to fine ambient particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) as a leading risk factor for adverse health outcomes. However, to date, only a few studies have examined the potential association between long-term exposure to PM 2.5 and bone homeostasis. OBJECTIVE We sought to examine the relationship between long-term PM 2.5 exposure and bone health and explore its potential mechanism. METHODS This research included both observational and experimental studies. First, based on human data from UK Biobank, linear regression was used to explore the associations between long-term exposure to PM 2.5 (i.e., annual average PM 2.5 concentration for 2010) and bone mineral density [BMD; i.e., heel BMD (n = 37,440 ) and femur neck and lumbar spine BMD (n = 29,766 )], which were measured during 2014-2020. For the experimental animal study, C57BL/6 male mice were assigned to ambient PM 2.5 or filtered air for 6 months via a whole-body exposure system. Micro-computed tomography analyses were applied to measure BMD and bone microstructures. Biomarkers for bone turnover and inflammation were examined with histological staining, immunohistochemistry staining, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. We also performed tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining and bone resorption assay to determine the effect of PM 2.5 exposure on osteoclast activity in vitro. In addition, the potential downstream regulators were assessed by real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot. RESULTS We observed that long-term exposure to PM 2.5 was significantly associated with lower BMD at different anatomical sites, according to the analysis of UK Biobank data. In experimental study, mice exposed long-term to PM 2.5 exhibited excessive osteoclastogenesis, dysregulated osteogenesis, higher tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF- α ) expression, and shorter femur length than control mice, but they demonstrated no significant differences in femur structure or BMD. In vitro, cells stimulated with conditional medium of PM 2.5 -stimulated macrophages had aberrant osteoclastogenesis and differences in the protein/mRNA expression of members of the TNF- α / Traf 6 / c -Fos pathway, which could be partially rescued by TNF- α inhibition. DISCUSSION Our prospective observational evidence suggested that long-term exposure to PM 2.5 is associated with lower BMD and further experimental results demonstrated exposure to PM 2.5 could disrupt bone homeostasis, which may be mediated by inflammation-induced osteoclastogenesis. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP11646.

Abstract
RATIONALE Lack of information about osteoporosis knowledge and awareness among premenopausal compared to postmenopausal women in Jordan. MAIN RESULT Women had an average-poor knowledge and awareness about osteoporosis. SIGNIFICANCE This study highlights the need to improve women's knowledge about osteoporosis, its consequences, potential risk factors, preventive measures, and treatment options. PURPOSE To assess osteoporosis knowledge, awareness, and risk factor profile among premenopausal and postmenopausal women from Jordan. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study that involved 490 premenopausal and 488 postmenopausal women from the general population of Jordan. Face-to-face interviews were conducted to collect the sociodemographic and clinical data and to complete the Osteoporosis Knowledge Assessment Tool (OKAT) questionnaire. RESULTS Premenopausal and postmenopausal women had an average-poor level of knowledge and awareness regarding osteoporosis, with a total mean score of 51.3 and 50.9, respectively, out of the total OKAT score of 100. More than 50% of premenopausal women correctly answered 11 questions, while >50% of postmenopausal women correctly answered 9 questions out of 20 in OKAT, which are related to knowledge and awareness about osteoporosis. The participants' marital status (being married), higher educational level, and higher economic status were significantly associated with better knowledge and awareness about osteoporosis (p-values < 0.05). Postmenopausal women had higher osteoporosis risk profile including older age, higher body mass index, less regular exercise, and less exposure to sunlight versus premenopausal women. CONCLUSION Premenopausal and postmenopausal women from Jordan had an average-poor level of knowledge and awareness about osteoporosis. Higher educational levels and higher income are associated with better knowledge and awareness about osteoporosis. It is therefore crucial to improve the knowledge of women in Jordan about osteoporosis and its consequences, as well as the potential risk factors, preventive measures, and treatment options. Conducting periodic osteoporosis awareness and educational campaigns are necessary to spread the awareness of the disease.

Abstract
Objective: To examine whether serotonin (5-HT) related genetic variants moderate the effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) on skeletal outcomes. Methods: Trabecular bone mineral density (BMD) at the radius, lumbar spine (LS) BMD, total body less head (TBLH) bone mineral content (BMC) and markers of bone metabolism (osteocalcin, C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen [CTX-1], and bone specific alkaline phosphatase to CTX-1 ratio) were examined in an observational study, enrolling 15- to 20-year-old participants, unmedicated or within a month of SSRI initiation. Variants in HTR1A (rs6295), HTR1B (rs6296), HTR1D (rs6300), HTR2A (rs6311 and rs6314), HTR2B (rs6736017), and the serotonin transporter intron 2 variable number tandem repeat (STin2 VNTR) were genotyped. Linear mixed-effects regression analysis examined associations between SSRI use, genetic variants, and skeletal outcomes. Results: After adjusting for relevant covariates, rs6295 CC and GC genotypes in 262 participants (60% female, mean ± SD age = 18.9 ± 1.6 years) were significantly associated with higher LS BMD compared to the GG genotype. Rs6311 GG SSRI users had greater LS BMD compared to nonusers (β = 0.18, p = <0.0001). Female SSRI users with the combination of rs6295 CC+GC and rs6311 GG genotypes had greater LS BMD than female SSRI nonusers (β = 0.29, p < 0.0001). SSRI users with the rs6295 GG genotype had higher trabecular BMD compared to nonusers (β = 3.60, p = 0.05). No significant interactions were found for TBLH BMC or bone turnover markers. After correcting for multiple comparisons, none of the results retained significance. Conclusions: In older adolescents and young adults, HTR1A (rs6295) and HTR2A (rs6311) variants may moderate the effect of SSRIs on BMD. Sex differences may exist and require further examination. Further research with larger sample sizes is needed to confirm our preliminary findings. Clinical Trial Registration: clinicaltrials.gov NCT02147184.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP), characterized by continuous bone loss and increased fracture risk, has posed a challenge to patients and society. Long-term administration of current pharmacological agents may cause severe side effects. Traditional medicines, acting as alternative agents, show promise in treating OP. Osthole, a natural coumarin derivative separated from Cnidium monnieri (L.) Cusson and Angelica pubescens Maxim. f., exhibits protective effects against the pathological development of OP. Osthole increases osteoblast-related bone formation and decreases osteoclast-related bone resorption, suppressing OP-related fragility fracture. In addition, the metabolites of osthole may exhibit pharmacological effectiveness against OP development. Mechanically, osthole promotes osteogenic differentiation by activating the Wnt/β-catenin and BMP-2/Smad1/5/8 signaling pathways and suppresses RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast activity. Thus, osthole may become a promising agent to protect against OP development. However, more studies should be performed due to, at least in part, the uncertainty of drug targets. Further pharmacological investigation of osthole in OP treatment might lead to the development of potential drug candidates.

Body composition phenotypes and bone health in young adults: A cluster analysis. Clin Nutr 2023; 42:1161-1167. [PMID: 37244756 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2023.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2022] [Revised: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Lean mass is considered the best predictor of bone mass, as it is an excellent marker of bone mechanical stimulation, and changes in lean mass are highly correlated with bone outcomes in young adults. The aim of this study was to use cluster analysis to examine phenotype categories of body composition assessed by lean and fat mass in young adults and to assess how these body composition categories are associated with bone health outcomes. METHODS Cluster cross-sectional analyses of data from 719 young adults (526 women) aged 18-30 years from Cuenca and Toledo, Spain, were conducted. Lean mass index (lean mass (kg)/height (m)2), fat mass index (fat mass (kg)/height (m)2), bone mineral content (BMC) and areal bone mineral density (aBMD) were assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. RESULTS A cluster analysis of lean mass and fat mass index z scores resulted in a classification of a five-category cluster solution that could be interpreted according to the body composition phenotypes of individuals as follows: high adiposity-high lean mass (n = 98), average adiposity-high lean mass (n = 113), high adiposity-average lean mass (n = 213), low adiposity-average lean mass (n = 142), and average adiposity-low lean mass (n = 153). ANCOVA models showed that individuals in clusters with a higher lean mass had significantly better bone health (z score: 0.764, se: 0.090) than their peers in other cluster categories (z score: -0.529, se: 0.074) after controlling for sex, age, and cardiorespiratory fitness (p < 0.05). Additionally, subjects belonging to the categories with a similar average lean mass index but with high or low-adiposity levels (z score: 0.289, se: 0.111; z score: 0.086, se: 0.076) showed better bone outcomes when the fat mass index was higher (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS This study confirms the validity of a body composition model using a cluster analysis to classify young adults according to their lean mass and fat mass indices. In addition, this model reinforces the main role of lean mass on bone health in this population and that in phenotypes with high-average lean mass, factors associated with fat mass may also have a positive effect on bone status.

Endocrine Health and Health Care Disparities in the Pediatric and Sexual and Gender Minority Populations: An Endocrine Society Scientific Statement. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2023; 108:1533-1584.

Abstract
Endocrine care of pediatric and adult patients continues to be plagued by health and health care disparities that are perpetuated by the basic structures of our health systems and research modalities, as well as policies that impact access to care and social determinants of health. This scientific statement expands the Society's 2012 statement by focusing on endocrine disease disparities in the pediatric population and sexual and gender minority populations. These include pediatric and adult lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual (LGBTQIA) persons. The writing group focused on highly prevalent conditions-growth disorders, puberty, metabolic bone disease, type 1 (T1D) and type 2 (T2D) diabetes mellitus, prediabetes, and obesity. Several important findings emerged. Compared with females and non-White children, non-Hispanic White males are more likely to come to medical attention for short stature. Racially and ethnically diverse populations and males are underrepresented in studies of pubertal development and attainment of peak bone mass, with current norms based on European populations. Like adults, racial and ethnic minority youth suffer a higher burden of disease from obesity, T1D and T2D, and have less access to diabetes treatment technologies and bariatric surgery. LGBTQIA youth and adults also face discrimination and multiple barriers to endocrine care due to pathologizing sexual orientation and gender identity, lack of culturally competent care providers, and policies. Multilevel interventions to address these disparities are required. Inclusion of racial, ethnic, and LGBTQIA populations in longitudinal life course studies is needed to assess growth, puberty, and attainment of peak bone mass. Growth and development charts may need to be adapted to non-European populations. In addition, extension of these studies will be required to understand the clinical and physiologic consequences of interventions to address abnormal development in these populations. Health policies should be recrafted to remove barriers in care for children with obesity and/or diabetes and for LGBTQIA children and adults to facilitate comprehensive access to care, therapeutics, and technological advances. Public health interventions encompassing collection of accurate demographic and social needs data, including the intersection of social determinants of health with health outcomes, and enactment of population health level interventions will be essential tools.

Abstract
Premature ovarian insufficiency is a reproductive endocrine disorder characterized by the cessation of ovarian function before the age of 40 years. Although the etiopathology of POI remains largely unknown, certain causative factors have been identified. Individuals affected by POI are at an increased risk of experiencing bone mineral density (BMD) loss. Hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) is recommended for patients with POI to mitigate the risk of decreased BMD, starting from the time of diagnosis until reaching the average age of natural menopause. Various studies have compared the dose-effect relationship of estradiol supplementation, as well as different HRT formulations on BMD. The impact of oral contraception on reduced BMD or the potential benefits of adding testosterone to estrogen replacement therapy are still subjects of ongoing discussion. This review provides an overview of the latest advancements in the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of POI as it relates to BMD loss.

Abstract
Inadequate calcium intake during childhood and adolescence is detrimental to bone metabolism. Here, we postulated that calcium supplement prepared from tuna bone with tuna head oil should benefit for skeletal development than CaCO3. Forty female 4-week-old rats were divided into calcium-replete diet (0.55% w/w, S1, n = 8) and low-calcium groups (0.15% w/w for 2 weeks; L; n = 32). Then L were subdivided into 4 groups (8/group), i.e., remained on L, L + tuna bone (S2), S2 + tuna head oil + 25(OH)D3 and S2 + 25(OH)D3. Bone specimens were collected at week 9. We found that 2 weeks on low calcium diet led to low bone mineral density (BMD), reduced mineral content, and impaired mechanical properties in young growing rats. Intestinal fractional calcium absorption also increased, presumably resulting from higher plasma 1,25(OH)2D3 (1.712 ± 0.158 in L vs. 1.214 ± 0.105 nM in S1, P < 0.05). Four-week calcium supplementation from tuna bone further increased calcium absorption efficacy, which later returned to the basal level by week 9. Calcium supplementation successfully restored BMD, bone strength and microstructure. However, 25(OH)D3 + tuna head oil + tuna bone showed no additive effect. Voluntary running also effectively prevented bone defects. In conclusion, both tuna bone calcium supplementation and exercise are effective interventions for mitigating calcium-deficient bone loss.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a type of bone loss disease characterized by a reduction in bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue. With the intensification of global aging, this disease is now regarded as one of the major public health problems that often leads to unbearable pain, risk of bone fractures, and even death, causing an enormous burden at both the human and socioeconomic layers. Classic anti-osteoporosis pharmacological options include anti-resorptive and anabolic agents, whose ability to improve bone mineral density and resist bone fracture is being gradually confirmed. However, long-term or high-frequency use of these drugs may bring some side effects and adverse reactions. Therefore, an increasing number of studies are devoted to finding new pathogenesis or potential therapeutic targets of osteoporosis, and it is of great importance to comprehensively recognize osteoporosis and develop viable and efficient therapeutic approaches. In this study, we systematically reviewed literatures and clinical evidences to both mechanistically and clinically demonstrate the state-of-art advances in osteoporosis. This work will endow readers with the mechanistical advances and clinical knowledge of osteoporosis and furthermore present the most updated anti-osteoporosis therapies.

Abstract
Antipsychotics are commonly used in treating psychiatric disorders. These medications primarily target dopamine the serotonin receptors, they have some affinity to adrenergic, histamine, glutamate and muscarinic receptors. There is clinical evidence that antipsychotic use decreases BMD and increases fracture risk, with dopamine, serotonin and adrenergic receptor-signalling becoming an increasing area of focus where the presence of these receptors in osteoclasts and osteoblasts have been demonstrated. Osteoclasts and osteoblasts are the most important cells in the bone remodelling and the bone regeneration process where the activity of these cells determine the bone resorption and formation process in order to maintain healthy bone. However, an imbalance in osteoclast and osteoblast activity can lead to decreased BMD and increased fracture risk, which is also believed to be exacerbated by antipsychotics use. Therefore, the aim of this review is to provide an overview of the mechanisms of action of first, second and third generation antipsychotics and the expression profiles of dopamine, serotonin and adrenergic receptors during osteoclastogenesis and osteoblastogenesis.

Cell Commun Signal 2023; 21:84. [PMID: 37095518 PMCID: PMC10124047 DOI: 10.1186/s12964-023-01115-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/25/2023] [Indexed: 04/26/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is a degenerative disease characterized by reduced bone mass, with low peak bone mass being the predominant manifestation during development and having an intrauterine origin. Pregnant women at risk of preterm delivery are commonly treated with dexamethasone to promote fetal lung development. However, pregnant dexamethasone exposure (PDE) can lead to reduced peak bone mass and susceptibility to osteoporosis in offspring. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mechanism of PDE-induced low peak bone mass in female offspring from the perspective of altered osteoclast developmental programming. METHODS 0.2 mg/kg.d dexamethasone was injected subcutaneously into rats on gestation days (GDs) 9-20. Some pregnant rats were killed at GD20 to remove fetal rat long bones, the rest were delivered naturally, and some adult offspring rats were given ice water swimming stimulation for two weeks. RESULTS The results showed that the fetal rat osteoclast development was inhibited in the PDE group compared with the control group. In contrast, the adult rat osteoclast function was hyperactivation with reduced peak bone mass. We further found that the promoter region methylation levels of lysyl oxidase (LOX) were decreased, the expression was increased, and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was raised in PDE offspring rat long bone before and after birth. Combined in vivo and in vitro experiments, we confirmed that intrauterine dexamethasone promoted the expression and binding of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and estrogen receptor β (ERβ) in osteoclasts and mediated the decrease of LOX methylation level and increase of expression through upregulation of 10-11 translocator protein 3 (Tet3). CONCLUSIONS Taken together, we confirm that dexamethasone causes osteoclast LOX hypomethylation and high expression through the GR/ERβ/Tet3 pathway, leading to elevated ROS production and that this intrauterine epigenetic programming effect can be carried over to postnatal mediating hyperactivation in osteoclast and reduced peak bone mass in adult offspring. This study provides an experimental basis for elucidating the mechanism of osteoclast-mediated intrauterine programming of low peak bone mass in female offspring of PDE and for exploring its early targets for prevention and treatment.

Interrelationship between muscle fitness in childhood and bone mineral density in adulthood: mediation analysis of muscle fitness in adulthood. BMC Public Health 2023; 23:648. [PMID: 37016376 PMCID: PMC10074897 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-023-15545-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was aimed to examine the relationship between muscular fitness indicators in childhood and areal bone mineral density (aBMD) in adulthood and to verify whether the relationship is mediated by performance on muscular fitness indicators in adulthood. METHODS A sample of 138 healthy adults (69 males; 22.3 years) were followed after a previous assessment at the age of 7-10 years. Stature, body mass and muscular fitness indicators (handgrip strength, standing long jump and sit-ups tests) were assessed in childhood and adulthood. Additionally, total body, upper limbs, lower limbs, right femoral neck and lumbar spine aBMD was assessed in adulthood using dual X-ray absorptiometry. Analysis included descriptive statistics; t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test for comparison between males and females, multiple linear regression for the prediction aBMD from muscular fitness indicators in childhood, mediation analysis of the respective muscular fitness indicators in adulthood and the relationship between muscular fitness indicators in childhood and aBMD. RESULTS Males were stronger compared to females regarding muscular fitness indicators in childhood and adulthood, and presented higher mean values for aBMD in adulthood, except for lumbar spine (p < 0.05). Regression analysis revealed that some muscular fitness indicators in childhood showed significant positive relationship with bone health indicators in adulthood, such as: handgrip strength and total body aBMD (β = 0.005; R2 = 0.35; p = 0.040) and upper limbs aBMD (β = 0.005; R2 = 0.55; p = 0.019); and sit-ups test was a significant predictors of lumbar spine BMD (β = 0.003; R2 = 0.06; p = 0.039). Mediation analysis pointed out the following: adulthood handgrip strength mediated relationships between childhood handgrip strength and total aBMD (indirect effect (IE) = 0.0025; 95%CI = 0.0005-0.0048), and upper limbs aBMD (IE = 0.0040; 95%CI = 0.0017-0.0069). CONCLUSIONS Muscular fitness indicators in childhood showed significant relationship with bone health indicators in adulthood and the sit-ups test in childhood had direct effect on lumbar spine aBMD in adulthood. Adulthood handgrip strength mediated the relationship between childhood handgrip strength and total body and upper limb aBMD, pointing out that muscular fitness in childhood may be a aBMD determinant in adulthood, especially when higher muscle fitness performance is maintained in adulthood.

Abstract
The present study reports a series of 3-aryl-3H-benzopyran-based amide derivatives as osteogenic agents concomitant with anticancer activity. Six target compounds viz 22e, 22f, 23i, and 24b-d showed good osteogenic activity at 1 pM and 100 pM concentrations. One of the potential molecules, 24b, effectively induced ALP activity and mRNA expression of osteogenic marker genes at 1 pM and bone mineralization at 100 pM concentrations. These molecules also presented significant growth inhibition of osteosarcoma (MG63) and estrogen-dependent and -independent (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) breast cancer cells. The most active compound, 24b, inhibited the growth of all the cancer cells within the IC50 10.45-12.66 µM. The mechanistic studies about 24b showed that 24b induced apoptosis via activation of the Caspase-3 enzyme and inhibited cancer cell migration. In silico molecular docking performed for 24b revealed its interaction with estrogen receptor-β (ER-β) preferentially.

Bone 2023; 168:116644. [PMID: 36566820 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2022.116644] [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: 06/28/2022] [Revised: 11/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Data on the association between early-life famine exposure and osteoporosis and fractures remain limited and inconclusive. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between famine exposure and osteoporosis and fractures. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional analysis using the first follow-up survey data from the China Cardiometabolic Disease and Cancer Cohort Study from 2014 to 2016. We classified 4807 Lanzhou participants into seven groups based on their birthday (non-exposed or exposed in the fetal stage, early childhood, mid-childhood, late childhood, adolescence, or early adulthood). And we combined the non-exposed and early-adulthood exposed groups as a control group, which was called "age balanced group". This age-balanced group was used as the control group to further evaluate the risk of osteoporosis and fracture. We used multiple logistic regression to estimate the association between famine exposure and the risk of osteoporosis (T-score ≤ -1.8 by QUS) and self-reported fracture. RESULTS In women, compared to the age-balanced group, the odds ratios (95 % CI) for the risk of osteoporosis were 1.400(1.034, 1.897), 1.630(1.268, 2.095), 1.707(1.314, 2.218), 2.150(1.732.2.668) and 2.885(2.286,3.641) in the fetal stage, early childhood, mid-childhood, late childhood and adolescence famine-exposed cohorts. In men, no association between famine and osteoporosis was noted with exposed cohort compared with the age-balanced control cohort (p > 0.05). Interestingly, the association between famine exposure and fractures was slightly different from the above results: in women, the odds ratios (95 % CI) for fractures in mid-childhood famine exposure was 1.461(1.082,1.973), in late childhood famine exposure was 1.333(1.035,1.718) and in adolescence famine exposure was 1.607(1.239,2.085). However, compared to the age-balanced control cohort, men exposed to famine in early childhood (OR: 1.801, 95 % CI: 1.010,3.211) had a higher risk of fracture. CONCLUSION Famine exposure in different life stage has adverse effects on bone health. Famine exposure in not only the period from gestation to infancy, but also childhood and adolescence was associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis, especially in women. Exposure to famine in childhood- (mid and late) and adolescence- life period is associated with fracture in women. But, in men early-childhood famine exposure was only associated with fracture.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1082413. [PMID: 37139332 PMCID: PMC10150014 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1082413] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Accepted: 02/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Bone accrual in childhood determines bone health in later life. Loss of bone strength in early life can lead to increased morbidity and reduced quality of life in childhood and adolescence. Increased availability of assessment tools and bisphosphonate therapy, together with increased awareness on the significance of fracture history and risk factors, have led to greater opportunities, to improve detection and optimize management of children and adolescents with bone fragility globally, including those in lower resource settings. Bone mineral density z-scores and bone mineral content are surrogate measures of bone strength, which can be measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), in growing individuals. DXA can aid in the diagnosis and management of primary and secondary bone fragility disorders in childhood. DXA helps evaluate children with clinically significant fractures, and monitor those with bone fragility disorders, or at high risk for compromised bone strength. Obtaining DXA images can however be challenging, especially in younger children, due to difficulty in positioning and movement artefacts, while paediatric DXA interpretation can be confounded by effects of growth and puberty. Furthermore, access to DXA facilities as well as appropriate paediatric reference norms and expertise for interpretation, may not be easily available especially in lower resource settings. Pediatric bone experts are now placing increasing emphasis on the fracture phenotype and clinical context to diagnose osteoporosis over bone mineral density (BMD) by DXA. Low trauma vertebral fractures are now recognized as a hallmark of bone fragility, and spinal fracture surveillance by either conventional lateral thoracolumbar radiographs or vertebral fracture assessment by DXA is gaining increasing importance in diagnosing childhood osteoporosis, and initiating bone protective therapy. Furthermore, it is now understood that even a single, low-trauma long bone fracture can signal osteoporosis in those with risk factors for bone fragility. Intravenous bisphosphonate therapy is the mainstay of treatment for childhood bone fragility disorders. Other supportive measures to improve bone strength include optimizing nutrition, encouraging weight bearing physical activity within the limits of the underlying condition, and treating any associated endocrinopathies. With this paradigm shift in childhood osteoporosis evaluation and management, lack of DXA facilities to assess BMD at baseline and/or provide serial monitoring is not a major barrier for initiating IV bisphosphonate therapy in children in whom it is clinically indicated and would benefit from its use. DXA is useful, however, to monitor treatment response and optimal timing for treatment discontinuation in children with transient risk factors for osteoporosis. Overall, there is lack of awareness and paucity of guidelines on utilizing and adopting available resources to manage paediatric bone disorders optimally in lower-resource settings. We provide an evidence-based approach to the assessment and management of bone fragility disorders in children and adolescents, with appropriate considerations for lower resource settings including LMIC countries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of food consumption and body composition on bone parameters in adolescent soccer players. METHODS There were 148 male soccer players 12 to 18 y who participated in the study. Body composition was assessed by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry, comprising bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) of total body without head (TBLH), lumbar spine (L1-L4), and right femoral neck (RFN). The bone geometry variables measured were femoral strength index (FSI), buckling ratio (BR), section modulus (Z), cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), and cross-sectional area (CSA). Food intake was analyzed using the 24-h food recall. Somatic maturation was estimated by the peak height velocity equation. For the statistical analysis, the stepwise multiple linear regression was used, with P < 0.05. RESULTS Regarding food consumption, there was a high protein intake and low calcium intake. Lean mass was a predictor of BMC of TBLH (R2 = 0.524), L1-L4 (R2 = 0.492), and RFN (R2 = 0.405); BMD of L1-L4 (R2 = 0.407) and RFN (R2 = 0.27); Z (R2 = 0.683), CSMI (R2 = 0.630), and CSA (R2 = 0.640). There was a negative correlation between protein intake with bone mass and bone geometry parameters. CONCLUSION In adolescent soccer players, lean mass was a predictor of bone parameters, and high protein intake was negatively associated with bone mass and geometry.

Abstract
As more accurate diagnostic tools and targeted therapies become increasingly available for pediatric metabolic bone diseases, affected children have a better prognosis and significantly longer lifespan. With this potential for fulfilling lives as adults comes the need for dedicated transition and intentional care of these patients as adults. Much work has gone into improving the transitions of medically fragile children into adulthood, encompassing endocrinologic conditions like type 1 diabetes mellitus and congenital adrenal hyperplasia. However, there are gaps in the literature regarding similar guidance concerning metabolic bone conditions. This article intends to provide a brief review of research and guidelines for transitions of care more generally, followed by a more detailed treatment of bone disorders specifically. Considerations for such transitions include final adult height, fertility, fetal risk, heritability, and access to appropriately identified specialists. A nutrient-dense diet, optimal mobility, and adequate vitamin D stores are protective factors for these conditions. Primary bone disorders include hypophosphatasia, X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets, and osteogenesis imperfecta. Metabolic bone disease can also develop secondarily as a sequela of such diverse exposures as hypogonadism, a history of eating disorder, and cancer treatment. This article synthesizes research by experts of these specific disorders to describe what is known in this field of transition medicine for metabolic bone diseases as well as unanswered questions. The long-term objective is to develop and implement strategies for successful transitions for all patients affected by these various conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To revisit the bone tissue mechanotransduction mechanisms behind the bone tissue response to mechanical loading and, within this context, explore the possible negative influence of regular swimming practice on bone health, particularly during the growth and development period. RECENT FINDINGS Bone is a dynamic tissue, responsive to mechanical loading and unloading, being these adaptative responses more intense during the growth and development period. Cross-sectional studies usually report a lower bone mass in swimmers compared to athletes engaged in weigh-bearing sports. However, studies with animal models show contradictory findings about the effect of swimming on bone health, highlighting the need for longitudinal studies. Due to its microgravity characteristics, swimming seems to impair bone mass, but mostly at the lower limbs. It is unkown if there is a causal relationship between swimming and low BMD or if other confounding factors, such as a natural selection whithin the sport, are the cause.

Abstract
Adolescence is a period characterized by large accumulation of bone mass. Body composition is an important determinant of bone mass. This study aimed to assess the relationship of bone mass with lean mass (LM) and fat mass (FM) in normal-weight and overweight adolescents with consideration of sex, sexual maturation and physical activity covariates. A total of 118 adolescents (60 girls and 58 boys) aged between 10 and 14 years participated in the study. Individuals were classified as normal weight or overweight according to body mass index. Bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), LM, and FM were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. In normal-weight adolescents, LM (β = 0.725, p < 0.001) and FM (β = 0.185, p = 0.019) were associated with lumbar spine BMC, whereas in overweight adolescents only LM (β = 0.736, p < 0.001) was associated with lumbar spine BMC. Furthermore, in the normal-weight group, FM and LM were associated with total body less head BMD (LM, β = 0.792, p < 0.001; FM, β = 0.257, p = 0.007) and lumbar spine BMD (LM, β = 0.553, p < 0.001; FM, β = 0.199, p < 0.035). In the overweight group, only LM was associated with total body less head BMD (β = 0.682, p < 0.001) and lumbar spine BMD (β = 0.528, p < 0.001). LM was the main predictor of bone mass in normal-weight and overweight adolescents. FM was associated with bone mass in normal-weight adolescents only. LM may be considered an important and useful marker in adolescents, when investigating bone health in this population. Activities that promote LM gain to reduce the risk of bone fractures and diseases in adulthood are recommended.

Both indirect maternal and direct fetal genetic effects reflect the observational relationship between higher birth weight and lower adult bone mass. BMC Med 2022; 20:361.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Birth weight is considered not only to undermine future growth, but also to induce lifelong diseases; the aim of this study is to explore the relationship between birth weight and adult bone mass. METHODS We performed multivariable regression analyses to assess the association of birth weight with bone parameters measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and by quantitative ultrasound (QUS), independently. We also implemented a systemic Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to explore the causal association between them with both fetal-specific and maternal-specific instrumental variables. RESULTS In the observational analyses, we found that higher birth weight could increase the adult bone area (lumbar spine, β-coefficient= 0.17, P < 2.00 × 10-16; lateral spine, β-coefficient = 0.02, P = 0.04), decrease bone mineral content-adjusted bone area (BMCadjArea) (lumbar spine, β-coefficient= - 0.01, P = 2.27 × 10-14; lateral spine, β-coefficient = - 0.05, P = 0.001), and decrease adult bone mineral density (BMD) (lumbar spine, β-coefficient = - 0.04, P = 0.007; lateral spine; β-coefficient = - 0.03, P = 0.02; heel, β-coefficient = - 0.06, P < 2.00 × 10-16), and we observed that the effect of birth weight on bone size was larger than that on BMC. In MR analyses, the higher fetal-specific genetically determined birth weight was identified to be associated with higher bone area (lumbar spine; β-coefficient = 0.15, P = 1.26 × 10-6, total hip, β-coefficient = 0.15, P = 0.005; intertrochanteric area, β-coefficient = 0.13, P = 0.0009; trochanter area, β-coefficient = 0.11, P = 0.03) but lower BMD (lumbar spine, β-coefficient = - 0.10, P = 0.01; lateral spine, β-coefficient = - 0.12, P = 0.0003, and heel β-coefficient = - 0.11, P = 3.33 × 10-13). In addition, we found that the higher maternal-specific genetically determined offspring birth weight was associated with lower offspring adult heel BMD (β-coefficient = - 0.001, P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS The observational analyses suggested that higher birth weight was associated with the increased adult bone area but decreased BMD. By leveraging the genetic instrumental variables with maternal- and fetal-specific effects on birth weight, the observed relationship could be reflected by both the direct fetal and indirect maternal genetic effects.
