Xu P, Zhao N, Wang J. Knowledge, attitude, and practice toward osteoporosis among patients with chronic kidney disease in Zhejiang. Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e38153. [PMID: 38758880 PMCID: PMC11098230 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000038153] [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: 12/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are considered high-risk group for osteoporosis. However, the current understanding of their knowledge, attitude, and practice toward osteoporosis remains unclear. CKD patients were recruited from Li Huili Hospital, Ningbo Medical Center between March 2023 and June 2023. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect the participant's demographic characteristics and knowledge, attitude, and practice toward osteoporosis. A total of 500 valid questionnaires were included in the analysis, with participants aged 51.08 ± 14.76 years. The mean scores for knowledge, attitude, and practice were 6.67 ± 3.04 (range: 0-11), 33.99 ± 3.37 (range: 10-50), and 35.29 ± 5.54 (range: 9-45), respectively. Pearson correlation analysis revealed significant positive associations between knowledge and attitude scores (r = 0.440, P < .001), knowledge and practice scores (r = 0.376, P < .001), as well as attitude and practice scores (r = 0.403, P < .001). Structural equation modeling revealed direct associations between knowledge and attitude (path coefficient = 0.488, P < .001), and between attitude and practice (path coefficient = 0.485, P < .001). The knowledge also exhibited a directly positive effect on practice (path coefficient = 0.449, P < .001). Undergoing glucocorticoid therapy (odd ratio [OR] = 2.353, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.022-5.418, P = .044) and osteoporosis osteoporosis (OR = 1.565, 95% CI: 1.011-2.421, P = .044) were positively associated with knowledge. Moreover, disease duration >1 year was positively associated with practice (OR = 3.643, 95% CI: 1.754-7.565, P < .001). CKD patients demonstrated moderate knowledge, neutral attitude, and moderate practice toward osteoporosis. To address the practice gaps of CKD patients toward osteoporosis, targeted educational interventions and attitude support programs can be developed.

Microvascular disease not type 2 diabetes is associated with increased cortical porosity: A study of cortical bone microstructure and intracortical vessel characteristics. Bone Rep 2024; 20:101745. [PMID: 38444830 PMCID: PMC10912053 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2024.101745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Revised: 12/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Fracture risk is elevated in type 2 diabetes (T2D) despite normal or even high bone mineral density (BMD). Microvascular disease (MVD) is a diabetic complication, but also associated with other diseases, for example chronic kidney disease. We hypothesize that increased fracture risk in T2D could be due to increased cortical porosity (Ct.Po) driven by expansion of the vascular network in MVD. The purpose of this study was to investigate associations of T2D and MVD with cortical microstructure and intracortical vessel parameters. Methods The study group consisted of 75 participants (38 with T2D and 37 without T2D). High-resolution peripheral quantitative CT (HR-pQCT) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) of the ultra-distal tibia were performed to assess cortical bone and intracortical vessels (outcomes). MVD was defined as ≥1 manifestation including neuropathy, nephropathy, or retinopathy based on clinical exams in all participants. Adjusted means of outcomes were compared between groups with/without T2D or between participants with/without MVD in both groups using linear regression models adjusting for age, sex, BMI, and T2D as applicable. Results MVD was found in 21 (55 %) participants with T2D and in 9 (24 %) participants without T2D. In T2D, cortical pore diameter (Ct.Po.Dm) and diameter distribution (Ct.Po.Dm.SD) were significantly higher by 14.6 μm (3.6 %, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 2.70, 26.5 μm, p = 0.017) and by 8.73 μm (4.8 %, CI: 0.79, 16.7 μm, p = 0.032), respectively. In MVD, but not in T2D, cortical porosity was significantly higher by 2.25 % (relative increase = 12.9 %, CI: 0.53, 3.97 %, p = 0.011) and cortical BMD (Ct.BMD) was significantly lower by -43.6 mg/cm3 (2.6 %, CI: -77.4, -9.81 mg/cm3, p = 0.012). In T2D, vessel volume and vessel diameter were significantly higher by 0.02 mm3 (13.3 %, CI: 0.004, 0.04 mm3, p = 0.017) and 15.4 μm (2.9 %, CI: 0.42, 30.4 μm, p = 0.044), respectively. In MVD, vessel density was significantly higher by 0.11 mm-3 (17.8 %, CI: 0.01, 0.21 mm-3, p = 0.033) and vessel volume and diameter were significantly lower by -0.02 mm3 (13.7 %, CI: -0.04, -0.004 mm3, p = 0.015) and - 14.6 μm (2.8 %, CI: -29.1, -0.11 μm, p = 0.048), respectively. Conclusions The presence of MVD, rather than T2D, was associated with increased cortical porosity. Increased porosity in MVD was coupled with a larger number of smaller vessels, which could indicate upregulation of neovascularization triggered by ischemia. It is unclear why higher variability and average diameters of pores in T2D were accompanied by larger vessels.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) mineral and bone disorder (MBD) comprises a triad of biochemical abnormalities (of calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone and vitamin D), bone abnormalities (turnover, mineralization and growth) and extra-skeletal calcification. Mineral dysregulation leads to bone demineralization causing bone pain and an increased fracture risk compared to healthy peers. Vascular calcification, with hydroxyapatite deposition in the vessel wall, is a part of the CKD-MBD spectrum and, in turn, leads to vascular stiffness, left ventricular hypertrophy and a very high cardiovascular mortality risk. While the growing bone requires calcium, excess calcium can deposit in the vessels, such that the intake of calcium, calcium- containing medications and high calcium dialysate need to be carefully regulated. Normal physiological bone mineralization continues into the third decade of life, many years beyond the rapid growth in childhood and adolescence, implying that skeletal calcium requirements are much higher in younger people compared to the elderly. Much of the research into the link between bone (de)mineralization and vascular calcification in CKD has been performed in older adults and these data must not be extrapolated to children or younger adults. In this article, we explore the physiological changes in bone turnover and mineralization in children and young adults, the pathophysiology of mineral bone disease in CKD and a potential link between bone demineralization and vascular calcification.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW SARS-CoV-2 infection, the culprit of the COVID-19 pandemic, has been associated with significant long-term effects on various organ systems, including bone health. This review explores the current understanding of the impacts of SARS-CoV-2 infection on bone health and its potential long-term consequences. RECENT FINDINGS As part of the post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, bone health changes are affected by COVID-19 both directly and indirectly, with multiple potential mechanisms and risk factors involved. In vitro and preclinical studies suggest that SARS-CoV-2 may directly infect bone marrow cells, leading to alterations in bone structure and osteoclast numbers. The virus can also trigger a robust inflammatory response, often referred to as a "cytokine storm", which can stimulate osteoclast activity and contribute to bone loss. Clinical evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2 may lead to hypocalcemia, altered bone turnover markers, and a high prevalence of vertebral fractures. Furthermore, disease severity has been correlated with a decrease in bone mineral density. Indirect effects of SARS-CoV-2 on bone health, mediated through muscle weakness, mechanical unloading, nutritional deficiencies, and corticosteroid use, also contribute to the long-term consequences. The interplay of concurrent conditions such as diabetes, obesity, and kidney dysfunction with SARS-CoV-2 infection further complicates the disease's impact on bone health. SARS-CoV-2 infection directly and indirectly affects bone health, leading to potential long-term consequences. This review article is part of a series of multiple manuscripts designed to determine the utility of using artificial intelligence for writing scientific reviews.

Patellar and quadriceps tendon rupture are associated with hip fracture in hemodialysis patients with severe hyperparathyroidism. JBMR Plus 2024; 8:ziae008. [PMID: 38505521 PMCID: PMC10945730 DOI: 10.1093/jbmrpl/ziae008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Spontaneous rupture of the patellar (PTR) and quadriceps (QTR) tendon is infrequent. Systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, CKD, and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) are risk factors. The present cohort study aimed to evaluate risk factors associated with tendon rupture in hemodialysis (HD) patients with SHPT, as well as outcomes including surgical complications, re-ruptures, and fracture. Baseline clinical, laboratorial data, and radiographs were analyzed. Patients were followed up from March 2012 to March 2020. One-hundred thirty-one patients (≥18 yr of age, on HD ≥ 6 mo, with SHPT) were included. Incidence rates of PTR and QTR were 2.3 and 1.7/10000 HD patients/yr, respectively. The mean age of patients with tendon rupture was 44.0 ± 11.2 yr. These patients exhibited higher serum levels of phosphorus (6.3 ± 1.5 mg/dL vs 5.6 ± 1.1 mg/dL; P = .005), PTH (2025.7 ± 667.6 pg/mL vs 1728.4 ± 684.8 pg/mL; P = .035), and C-reactive-protein (35.4 ± 32.9 mg/dL vs 17 ± 24.5 mg/dL; P = .002) compared to the group without tendon rupture. The mean follow-up was 56.7 ± 27.1 mo. No patient required a new surgical approach or experienced re-rupture. Of all patients, 31% experienced hip fracture: 50% in the group with rupture (29.5 ± 17.4 mo after the tendon rupture) vs 26% without tendon rupture (P = .015). After adjustment, the hazard ratio for hip fracture was 2.87 (95% CI, 1.27-6.49; P = .012). Patients with SHPT and high levels of phosphorus, PTH, and inflammatory markers were at greater risk for tendon rupture. Surgical complication rates were low. However, results suggest that tendon rupture of knee extensor mechanism in HD patient with SHPT should be regarded as a "red flag" for future hip fracture.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW SARS-CoV-2 drove the catastrophic global phenomenon of the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in a multitude of systemic health issues, including bone loss. The purpose of this review is to summarize recent findings related to bone loss and potential mechanisms. RECENT FINDINGS The early clinical evidence indicates an increase in vertebral fractures, hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiencies, and a loss in BMD among COVID-19 patients. Additionally, lower BMD is associated with more severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. Preclinical models have shown bone loss and increased osteoclastogenesis. The bone loss associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection could be the result of many factors that directly affect the bone such as higher inflammation, activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, recruitment of Th17 cells, the hypoxic environment, and changes in RANKL/OPG signaling. Additionally, SARS-CoV-2 infection can exert indirect effects on the skeleton, as mechanical unloading may occur with severe disease (e.g., bed rest) or with BMI loss and muscle wasting that has also been shown to occur with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Muscle wasting can also cause systemic issues that may influence the bone. Medications used to treat SARS-CoV-2 infection also have a negative effect on the bone. Lastly, SARS-CoV-2 infection may also worsen conditions such as diabetes and negatively affect kidney function, all of which could contribute to bone loss and increased fracture risk. SARS-CoV-2 can negatively affect the bone through multiple direct and indirect mechanisms. Future work will be needed to determine what patient populations are at risk of COVID-19-related increases in fracture risk, the mechanisms behind bone loss, and therapeutic options. This review article is part of a series of multiple manuscripts designed to determine the utility of using artificial intelligence for writing scientific reviews.

Abstract
Introduction Osteoporosis is a disorder characterized by decreased bone mass and skeletal fragility with increased fracture risk. Chronic kidney disease presents with wide range of bone metabolic disorders, including osteoporosis. Osteoporosis prevalence is high in early stages of CKD; whereas in late stages, it coexists with renal osteodystrophy. Risk factors Risk factors for osteoporosis include advancing age, low bone mineral density (BMD), glucocorticoid therapy, smoking, alcohol intake, etc. Diagnosis The diagnosis of osteoporosis in renal disease is made after assessment of BMD, in addition to exclusion of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD), eliciting history of prior fragility fractures and relevant laboratory investigations. Management The treatment of osteoporosis varies with the different stages of CKD, with management in stages 1-3 being similar to the general population. Special emphasis must be laid on prevention of fractures as well.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to measure bone mineral density (BMD) of the cancellous bone in both femoral condyles and to compare the results according to the hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle in patients with knee osteoarthritis. HYPOTHESIS BMD of cancellous bone in the medial condyle is markedly lower in valgus knees compared to that in the lateral condyle in varus knees. METHODS Consecutive patients with computed tomography (CT) of the knee and long-leg radiographs obtained in preparation for total knee arthroplasty were included. The 189 knees were divided into five groups based on whether the hip-knee-ankle angle was<170° (major varus deformity), 171°-177° (varus deformity), 178°-182° (normal alignment), 183°-189° (valgus deformity), and>190° (major valgus deformity). A protocol for CT measurement of BMD values at the femoral condyles was developed. Correlations between the HKA angle and BMD were assessed using the ratio of medial-to-lateral condyle BMD values (M/L). RESULTS M/L was lower for knees with valgus deformity than for normally aligned knees (0.7 vs. 1, p<0.001). This difference was larger in the group with major valgus deformity, with a mean M/L value of 0.5 (p<0.001). M/L was higher for knees with major varus (mean, 1.2; p=0.035). The correlation coefficients showed excellent intra-observer and inter-observer agreement for the BMD measurements. CONCLUSION The BMD values of the femoral condyles correlate with the HKA angle. BMD is lower at the medial femoral condyle of valgus knees, particularly when the deformity exceeds 10°. This finding may deserve consideration when planning total knee arthroplasty. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV; retrospective study.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by secondary hyperparathyroidism and an increased risk of hip fractures predominantly related to cortical porosity. Unfortunately, bone mineral density measurements and high-resolution peripheral computed tomography (HR-pQCT) imaging have shortcomings that limit their utility in these patients. Ultrashort echo time magnetic resonance imaging (UTE-MRI) has the potential to overcome these limitations by providing an alternative assessment of cortical porosity. The goal of the current study was to determine if UTE-MRI could detect changes in porosity in an established rat model of CKD. Cy/+ rats (n = 11), an established animal model of CKD-MBD, and their normal littermates (n = 12) were imaged using microcomputed tomography (microCT) and UTE-MRI at 30 and 35 weeks of age (which approximates late-stage kidney disease in humans). Images were obtained at the distal tibia and the proximal femur. Cortical porosity was assessed using the percent porosity (Pore%) calculated from microCT imaging and the porosity index (PI) calculated from UTE-MRI. Correlations between Pore% and PI were also calculated. Cy/+ rats had higher Pore% than normal rats at both skeletal sites at 35 weeks (tibia = 7.13 % +/- 5.59 % vs. 0.51 % +/- 0.09 %, femur = 19.99 % +/- 7.72 % vs. 2.72 % +/- 0.32 %). They also had greater PI at the distal tibia at 30 weeks of age (0.47 +/- 0.06 vs. 0.40 +/- 0.08). However, Pore% and PI were only correlated in the proximal femur at 35 weeks of age (ρ = 0.929, Spearman). These microCT results are consistent with prior studies in this animal model utilizing microCT imaging. The UTE-MRI results were inconsistent, resulting in variable correlations with microCT imaging, which may be related to suboptimal bound and pore water discrimination at higher magnetic field strengths. Nevertheless, UTE-MRI may still provide an additional clinical tool to assess fracture risk without using ionizing radiation in CKD patients.

Biomedicines 2023; 11:2076. [PMID: 37509715 PMCID: PMC10377042 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11072076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2023] [Revised: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) often experience a high accumulation of protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs), specifically indoxyl sulfate (IS) and p-cresyl sulfate (pCS). In the early stages of CKD, the buildup of PBUTs inhibits bone and muscle function. As CKD progresses, elevated PBUT levels further hinder bone turnover and exacerbate muscle wasting. In the late stage of CKD, hyperparathyroidism worsens PBUT-induced muscle damage but can improve low bone turnover. PBUTs play a significant role in reducing both the quantity and quality of bone by affecting osteoblast and osteoclast lineage. IS, in particular, interferes with osteoblastogenesis by activating aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) signaling, which reduces the expression of Runx2 and impedes osteoblast differentiation. High PBUT levels can also reduce calcitriol production, increase the expression of Wnt antagonists (SOST, DKK1), and decrease klotho expression, all of which contribute to low bone turnover disorders. Furthermore, PBUT accumulation leads to continuous muscle protein breakdown through the excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammatory cytokines. Interactions between muscles and bones, mediated by various factors released from individual tissues, play a crucial role in the mutual modulation of bone and muscle in CKD. Exercise and nutritional therapy have the potential to yield favorable outcomes. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of bone and muscle loss in CKD can aid in developing new therapies for musculoskeletal diseases, particularly those related to bone loss and muscle wasting.

Abstract
Long considered an inert supporting framework, bone studies went neglected until the 17th century when they began as descriptive microscopic studies of structure which over time progressed into that of chemistry and physiology. It was in the mid-19th century that studies evolved into an inquisitive discipline which matured into the experimental investigation of bone in health and disease in the 20th century, and ultimately that of molecular studies now deciphering the genetic language of bone biology. These fundamental studies were catalyzed by increasing clinical interest in bone disease. The first bone disease to be identified was rickets in 1645. Its subsequent connection to albuminuric patients reported in 1883 later became renal osteodystrophy in 1942, launching studies that elucidated the functions of vitamin D and parathyroid hormone and their role in the altered calcium and phosphate metabolism of the disease. Studies in osteoporosis and renal osteodystrophy have driven most recent progress benefitting from technological advances in imaging and the precision of evaluating bone turnover, mineralization, and volume. This review exposes the progress of bone biology from a passive support structure to a dynamically regulated organ with vital homeostatic functions whose understanding has undergone more revisions and paradigm shifts than that of any other organ.

Abstract
Background: Cardiovascular events are the main cause of death in patients with chronic kidney disease. We hypothesize that the protective effects of renal cholesterol and vitamin D3 metabolism are lost under this condition. Nephropathy was induced by adenine in Apolipoprotein E knockout mice. The atherosclerotic phenotype was compared to mice with normal renal function. Methods: Mice were fed a western diet ±0.15% adenine. Urine and feces were collected to assess renal function and fecal output. Atherosclerosis, serum lipoprotein composition and functionality, hepatic lipids, and expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism, vitamin D3 and Na+ homeostasis, were assessed. Bones were analyzed by microCT. Results: Mice fed with adenine showed enhanced urinary Na+, Ca2+, and Pi excretion, reduced urinary pH, UreaUrine/UreaSerum, and CreatinineUrine/CreatinineSerum ratios. They developed less atherosclerosis. Lipoproteins in serum and hepatic lipids remained unchanged. Cholesterol efflux increased. Fecal output of cholesteryl ester and triglycerides increased. In the liver, mRNA levels of Cyp27a1, Cyp7a1, and Scarb1 increased; in the kidneys, Slc9a3, Slc12a3, Vdr, and Cyp24a1 decreased. Adenine increased cholesterol efflux in vitro. Tibias were shorter. Conclusion: Adenine induced tubular damage and was athero-protective because of enhanced cholesterol efflux and lipids elimination in feces. Bone growth was also affected.

Abstract
The situation of secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) in CKD patients not on dialysis (ND-CKD) is probably best characterised by the KDIGO CKD-MBD Update 2017 guideline 4.2.1 stating that the optimal PTH levels is not known in these stages. Furthermore, new caution became recommended with regard to the routine use of active vitamin D analogues in early CKD stages and moderate sHPT phenotypes, due to their potential risks for hypercalcaemia and hyperphosphataemia aggravation. Nevertheless, there is still a substantial clinical need to prevent the development of parathyroid gland autonomy with its associated consequences of bone and vascular damage including fracture risks and cardiovascular events. Therefore, we now attempt to review the current guideline-based and clinical practice management of sHPT in ND-CKD including their strengths and weaknesses, favouring individualised approaches respecting calcium and phosphate homeostasis. We further comment on extended-release calcifediol (ERC) as a new differential therapeutic option now also available in Europe, and on a potentially novel understanding of a required vitamin D saturation in more advanced CKD stages. There is no doubt, however, that knowledge gaps will remain in this issue unless powerful RCTs with hard and meaningful endpoints are performed.

Abstract
Ferric citrate (FC) is an approved therapy for chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients as a phosphate (Pi) binder for dialysis-dependent CKD, and for iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in non-dialysis CKD. Elevated Pi and IDA both lead to increased FGF23, however, the roles of iron and FGF23 during CKD remain unclear. To this end, iron and Pi metabolism were tested in a mouse model of CKD (0.2% adenine) ± 0.5% FC for 6 weeks, with and without osteocyte deletion of Fgf23 (flox-Fgf23/Dmp1-Cre). Intact FGF23 (iFGF23) increased in all CKD mice but was lower in Cre+ mice with or without FC, thus the Dmp1-Cre effectively reduced FGF23. Cre+ mice fed AD-only had higher serum Pi than Cre- pre- and post-diet, and the Cre+ mice had higher BUN regardless of FC treatment. Total serum iron was higher in all mice receiving FC, and liver Tfrc, Bmp6, and hepcidin mRNAs were increased regardless of genotype; liver IL-6 showed decreased mRNA in FC-fed mice. The renal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D) anabolic enzyme Cyp27b1 had higher mRNA and the catabolic Cyp24a1 showed lower mRNA in FC-fed mice. Finally, mice with loss of FGF23 had higher bone cortical porosity, whereas Raman spectroscopy showed no changes in matrix mineral parameters. Thus, FC- and FGF23-dependent and -independent actions were identified in CKD; loss of FGF23 was associated with higher serum Pi and BUN, demonstrating that FGF23 was protective of mineral metabolism. In contrast, FC maintained serum iron and corrected inflammation mediators, potentially providing ancillary benefit.

Assessment of trabecular and cortical parameters using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography, histomorphometry and microCT of iliac crest bone core in hemodialysis patients. Bone Rep 2022; 16:101173. [PMID: 35198659 PMCID: PMC8850668 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2022.101173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2021] [Revised: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 02/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Patients with end-stage renal disease develop changes in bone quality and quantity, which can be assessed using different methods. This study aimed to compare and to correlate bone parameters obtained in vivo using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) with those obtained by bone biopsy using histomorphometry and microcomputed tomography (microCT) analysis of the iliac crest core, and to evaluate if HR-pQCT is helpful in aiding with categorization of those with high turnover. Twenty hemodialysis patients, 13 females (7 postmenopausal), underwent bone biopsy from 2018 to 2020. The mean age was 48.5 ± 10.6 years, and the mean hemodialysis vintage was 15 years. Histomorphometry identified mineralization defects, low turnover, and high turnover in 65%, 45%, and 35% of the patients, respectively. The highest values of trabecular bone volume (BV/TV) were obtained by histomorphometry, while the highest values of cortical thickness (Ct.Th) were obtained by HR-pQCT at the distal tibia. Moderate correlations were found between BV/TV values obtained by microCT of the bone core and HR-pQCT at the distal radius (r = 0.531, p = 0.016) and at the distal tibia (r = 0.536, p = 0.015). BV/TV values obtained from the bone core by histomorphometry and microCT were also significantly correlated (r = 0.475, p = 0.04). Regarding Ct.Th, there was a strong correlation between the radius and tibia HR-pQCT (r = 0.800, p < 0.001), between bone core microCT and the distal radius HR-pQCT (r = 0.610, p < 0.01), as between histomorphometry and microCT (r = 0.899, p < 0.01). In groups classified by bone turnover, patients with high turnover presented lower BV/TV, Tb.N, Tb.Th, and Ct.Th than those with low turnover in peripheral sites using HR-pQCT. By this method, it was possible to identify low turnover from tibia BV/TV > 12,4% plus Tb.Sp ≤ 0.667 mm (AUC 0.810, 95% CI 0.575 to 0.948) and high turnover from total bone mineral density (BMD) ≤ 154.2 mg HA/cm3 (AUC 0.860, 95% CI 0.633 to 0.982, p < 0.001) and cortical BMD ≤ 691.6 mg HA/cm3 (AUC 0.840, 95% CI 0.609 to 0.963, p < 0.001). In conclusion, HR-pQCT had significant correlation with iliac crest bone in BV/TV and Ct.Th, which are known to provide bone strength. This method is quick and non-invasive and may be helpful in categorizing those with high versus low turnover in hemodialysis patients. Bone structure in hemodialysis patients can be assessed using different methods. There was correlation of BV/TV and Ct.Th between histomorphometry and bone core microCT. BV/TV and Ct.Th values obtained by radius HR-pQCT and bone core microCT were correlated. High turnover patients had lower BV/TV, Tb.N, Tb.Th, and Ct.Th by HR-pQCT. HR-pQCT was able to discriminate low and high turnover in hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
Background
Disordered mineral metabolism reverses incompletely after kidney transplantation in numerous patients. Post-transplantation bone disease is a combination of pre-existing chronic kidney disease and mineral disorder and often evolving osteoporosis. These two frequently overlapping conditions increase the risk of post-transplantation fractures.
Material and methods
We studied the prevalence of low bone volume in bone biopsies obtained from kidney transplant recipients who were biopsied primarily due to the clinical suspicion of persistent hyperparathyroidism between 2000 and 2015 at the Hospital District of Helsinki and Uusimaa. Parameters of mineral metabolism, results of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scans, and the history of fractures were obtained concurrently.
One hundred nine bone biopsies taken at a median of 31 (interquartile range, IQR, 18–70) months after transplantation were included in statistical analysis. Bone turnover was classified as high in 78 (72%) and normal/low in 31 (28%) patients. The prevalence of low bone volume (n = 47, 43%) was higher among patients with low/normal turnover compared to patients with high turnover [18 (58%) vs. 29 (37%), P = 0.05]. Thirty-seven fragility fractures in 23 (21%) transplant recipients corresponding to fracture incidence 15 per 1000 person-years occurred during a median follow-up 9.1 (IQR, 6.3–12.1) years. Trabecular bone volume did not correlate with incident fractures. Accordingly, low bone mineral density at the lumbar spine correlated with low trabecular bone volume, but not with incident fractures. The cumulative corticosteroid dose was an important determinant of low bone volume, but not of incident fractures.
Conclusions
Despite the high prevalence of trabecular bone loss among kidney transplant recipients, the number of fractures was limited. The lack of association between trabecular bone volume and fractures suggests that the bone cortical compartment and quality are important determinants of bone strength and post-transplantation fracture.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and predictors of asymptomatic vertebral fracture in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis. Methods This cross-sectional study included 80 patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis. Medical history, Fracture Risk Assessment Tool and anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of the thoracolumbar and lumbosacral spine were obtained. Vertebral fractures were identified using the Genant semiquantitative assessment. Results Radiography demonstrated asymptomatic vertebral fracture in 22 patients (27.5%). FRAX® results for major osteoporotic fracture (area under the curve, 0.64) and hip fracture (area under the curve, 0.62) were able to discriminate patients with prevalent asymptomatic vertebral fracture. A multivariate analysis demonstrated that a 1-year average corrected calcium (odds ratio, 0.38), steroid use (odds ratio, 8.99), and a serum albumin concentration <25 g/dL (odds ratio, 28.82) significantly predicted prevalent asymptomatic vertebral fracture (clinical model; area under the curve, 0.82). Combining the 1-year average corrected calcium and serum albumin concentration <25 g/dL with FRAX® results for major osteoporotic fracture (area under the curve, 0.78) and FRAX® results for hip (area under the curve, 0.75) produced a significantly greater area under the curve value to predict fracture when compared with FRAX® result for major osteoporotic fracture and FRAX® result for hip (P = 0.022). Conclusion Asymptomatic vertebral fracture is prevalent. FRAX® results for major osteoporotic fracture and hip provided lower ability in predicting asymptomatic vertebral facture when compared to the clinical model. Combining a 1-year average corrected calcium and serum albumin concentration <25 g/dL with FRAX® result for major osteoporotic fracture or hip improved the model's performance and provided comparable area under the curve to the clinical model.

Quantitative assessment of lumbar spine bone marrow in patients with different severity of CKD by IDEAL-IQ magnetic resonance sequence. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:980576. [PMID: 36204094 PMCID: PMC9530399 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.980576] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has a significant negative impact on bone health. Bone marrow is an essential component of bone, mainly composed of trabecular bone and fat. The IDEAL-IQ sequence of MRI allows indirect quantification of trabecular bone mass by R2* and direct quantification of bone marrow fat content by FF map, respectively. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to explore the association of CKD severity with bone marrow using IDEAL-IQ and whether mineral and bone metabolism markers alter this association. METHOD We recruited 68 CKD patients in this cross-sectional research (15 with CKD stages 3-4, 26 with stage 5, and 27 with stage 5d). All patients underwent lumbar spine IDEAL-IQ, BMD, and several bone metabolism markers (iPTH, 25-(OH)-VitD, calcium and phosphorus). Multiple linear regression analysis was used to examine the association of CKD severity with MRI measurements (R2* and FF). RESULTS More severe CKD was associated with a higher R2* value [CKD 5d versus 3-4: 30.077 s-1 (95% CI: 12.937, 47.217), P for trend < 0.001], and this association was attenuated when iPTH was introduced [CKD 5d versus 3-4: 19.660 s-1 (95% CI: 0.205, 39.114), P for trend = 0.042]. Furthermore, iPTH had an association with R2* value [iPTH (pg/mL): 0.033 s-1 (95% CI: 0.001, 0.064), P = 0.041]. Besides, FF was mainly affected by age and BMI, but not CKD. CONCLUSIONS The bone marrow R2* value measured by IDEAL-IQ sequence is associated with CKD severity and iPTH. The R2* of IDEAL-IQ has the potential to reflect lumbar bone changes in patients with CKD.

Abstract
Nowadays, chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoporosis have become crucial health-related issues globally. CKD-induced osteoporosis is a systemic disease characterized by the disruption of mineral, hormone, and vitamin homeostasis that elevates the likelihood of fracture. Here, we review recent studies on the association of CKD and osteoporosis. In particular, we focus on the pathogenesis of CKD-associated osteoporosis, including the homeostasis and pathways of several components such as parathyroid hormone, calcium, phosphate, vitamin D, fibroblast growth factor, and klotho, as well as abnormal bone mineralization, remodeling, and turnover. In addition, we explore the diagnostic tools and possible therapeutic approaches for the management and prevention of CKD-associated osteoporosis. Patients with CKD show higher osteoporosis prevalence, greater fracture rate, increased morbidity and mortality, and an elevated occurrence of hip fracture. We also rule out that increased severity of CKD is related to a more severe condition of osteoporosis. Furthermore, supplements such as calcium and vitamin D as well as lifestyle modifications such as exercise and cessation of smoking and alcohol help in fracture prevention. However, new approaches and advancements in treatment are needed to reduce the fracture risk in patients with CKD. Therefore, further collaborative multidisciplinary research is needed in this regard.

Hip Fracture Risk in Elderly With Non-End-Stage Chronic Kidney Disease: A Fall Related Analysis. Am J Med Sci 2021; 363:48-54. [PMID: 34256032 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjms.2021.06.015] [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: 07/21/2020] [Revised: 02/15/2021] [Accepted: 06/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of fracture as a consequence of trauma and its association with kidney function status in a cohort of elderly patients. METHODS This is an observational, cross-sectional study. We evaluated all fall-related trauma of patients ≥ 65 years in the emergency department (ED) between 2016 and 2018. According to CDK-EPI formula, we stratified the study population in different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) for glomerular filtrate rate (GFR) ≥ 15 and < 60, not on hemodialysis. The hip fracture rate was adjusted at multivariate analysis for age, sex, comorbid conditions, and CKD status. RESULTS We enrolled 5620 patients: 3482 patients had GFR ≥60, 1045 had GFR ≥45 and <60, 722 had GFR ≥30 and <45, and 371 had GFR ≥15 and <30. We recorded 636 (11.3%) hip fractures. After adjusting for significant covariates (age, sex, known osteoporosis, osteoporosis therapy, anemia, and dementia), patients with GFR ≥ 45 and <60 and GFR ≥30 and <45 exhibited an increased risk of femur fracture (odds ratio 2.01 [1.36-2.97] and 1.64 [1.08-2.48], respectively). Patients with GFR ≥15 and <30 had a higher risk of fracture, although not reaching statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS Our study confirms that patients with non-end stage CKD have an increased risk of femur fracture after a fall. Our data supports the hypothesis that this risk could be associated with increased bone fragility in CKD patients. Active osteoporosis therapy was found to be an effective preventive factor in our cohort.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a critical factor in chronic kidney disease (CKD), with elevated levels causing alterations in mineral metabolism and increased odds for mortality. Patients with CKD develop anemia as the kidneys progressively lose the ability to produce erythropoietin (EPO). Anemia is a potent driver of FGF23 secretion; therefore, a hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor (HIF-PHI) currently in clinical trials to elevate endogenous EPO to resolve anemia was tested for effects on iron utilization and FGF23-related parameters in a CKD mouse model. Mice were fed either a casein control diet or an adenine-containing diet to induce CKD. The CKD mice had markedly elevated iFGF23 and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), hyperphosphatemia, and anemia. Cohorts of mice were then treated with a patient-equivalent dose of BAY 85-3934 (BAY; Molidustat), which elevated EPO and completely resolved aberrant complete blood counts (CBCs) in the CKD mice. iFGF23 was elevated in vehicle-treated CKD mice (120-fold), whereas circulating iFGF23 was significantly attenuated (>60%) in the BAY-treated CKD mice. The BAY-treated mice with CKD also had reduced BUN, but there was no effect on renal vitamin D metabolic enzyme expression. Consistent with increased EPO, bone marrow Erfe, Transferrin receptor (Tfrc), and EpoR mRNAs were increased in BAY-treated CKD mice, and in vitro hypoxic marrow cultures increased FGF23 with direct EPO treatment. Liver Bmp-6 and hepcidin expression were downregulated in all BAY-treated groups. Femur trabecular parameters and cortical porosity were not worsened with BAY administration. In vitro, differentiated osteocyte-like cells exposed to an iron chelator to simulate iron depletion/hypoxia increased FGF23; repletion with holo-transferrin completely suppressed FGF23 and normalized Tfrc1. Collectively, these results support that resolving anemia using a HIF-PHI during CKD was associated with lower BUN and reduced FGF23, potentially through direct restoration of iron utilization, thus providing modifiable outcomes beyond improving anemia for this patient population. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

The muscle to bone axis (and viceversa): An encrypted language affecting tissues and organs and yet to be codified? Pharmacol Res 2021; 165:105427.

Abstract
Skeletal muscles and bone tissue form the musculoskeletal apparatus, a complex system essential for the voluntary movement. The loss of muscle mass and muscle strength is often associated with a loss of bone mass, in a "hazardous duet" which implies the co-existence of sarcopenia-osteoporosis and exposes patients to a deterioration in quality of life and increased mortality. From the mechanostat theory to the recent definition of the osteosarcopenia syndrome, many aspects of muscle-bone interaction have been investigated in recent decades. The mechanical interaction is now accepted, considering the close anatomical relationship between the two tissues, however, much remains to be discovered regarding the biochemical muscle-bone interaction. Skeletal muscle has been defined as an endocrine organ capable of exerting an action on other tissues. Myokines, bioactive polypeptides released by the muscle, could represent the encrypted message in the communication between muscle and bone. These two tissues have a reciprocal influence on their metabolisms and respond in a similar way to the multiple external factors. The aim of this review is to stimulate the understanding of the encrypted language between muscle and bone, highlighting the role of catabolic pathways and oxidative stress in the musculoskeletal apparatus to elucidate the shared mechanisms and the similarity of response to the same stimuli by different tissues. Our understanding of muscle-bone interactions it could be useful to identify and develop new strategies to treat musculoskeletal diseases, together with pharmacological, nutritional and exercise-based approaches, which are already in use for the treatment of these pathologies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Scapular stress fracture (sSF) is a difficult complication to treat after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence and possible risk factors in a large population. METHODS A total of 2165 RSAs that were implanted between January 2006 and October 2017 in five hospitals were evaluated. Within this cohort, sSF was radiologically confirmed. Age, gender, surgical indication and hospital of treatment were determined for the entire cohort. A matched 3:1 case-control study was then performed to investigate several clinical and surgical variables. RESULTS sSF occurred in 3.1% (63 patients), with a median time interval of five months post-operative [IQR = 9, range: (1-79)]. Within the entire cohort, females (OR = 2.99) and rotator cuff arthropathy (RCA) (OR = 2.79) were more prone to this complication. Age had little influence (OR = 1.03). After exclusion, fifty-five eligible cases were matched to 165 controls based on hospital, gender, age and surgical indication. After univariable analysis, significance was obtained for osteopenia (P = 0.037), osteoporosis (P = 0.032), surgical approach (P = 0.002) and peri-operative acromioclavicular (AC) joint surgery (P = 0.035). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that osteopenia (OR = 3.94), osteoporosis (OR = 2.85) and a deltopectoral approach (OR = 3.70) were independent risk factors. CONCLUSION According to our findings, older women with poor bone quality and a history of RCA suffered more frequently from sSF. Anterolateral approach during surgery was a surgical protective factor, possibly due to the mobilization of the acromioclavicular joint. Although this study indicates who is at risk for sSF, further investigation for prevention of sSF in these patients is necessary.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Patients with chronic kidney disease have high risk of osteoporotic fractures. Lower trabecular bone score (TBS) was associated with poorer kidney function and higher fracture risk when kidney function was normal. Addition of TBS to The Fracture Risk Assessment Tool with bone mineral density did not improve fracture risk prediction. INTRODUCTION We sought to determine whether trabecular bone score (TBS) either independently or adjusted for The Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) could predict risk of major osteoporotic fractures (MOFs) in a large population-based sample of patients with all stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS We used population-based administrative databases to identify patients above age 20 years who had dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan and serum creatinine measured within 1 year, during the years 2005 to 2010. Patients were excluded if they were on dialysis or had a functioning renal transplant. We stratified patients by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). We collected femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD), lumbar spine TBS, incident major osteoporotic fractures (MOF) and hip fractures, and other clinical characteristics. RESULTS Among 8289 patients, there were 6224 (75.1%) with eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, 1624 (19.6%) with eGFR 30-60 mL/min/1.73 m2, and 441 (5.3%) with eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2. There were 593 patients (7.2%) with MOFs and 163 (2.0%) with hip fractures. Lower TBS score was associated with increased risk of MOF and hip fractures across all eGFR strata in unadjusted Cox proportional hazards models but after adjusting for FRAX with BMD, lower TBS was only statistically significant for MOF prediction for eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. CONCLUSION Lower TBS scores were associated with lower eGFR and increased fracture risk in patients with eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. However, the addition of TBS to the FRAX score with BMD did not significantly improve fracture risk prediction in patients with CKD.

Abstract
Background Vascular calcification (VC) is a major component of mineral bone disorders in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Bone metabolism is affected by various factors, including sex hormones. This study investigated whether there was a sex-specific relationship between VC and incident fracture in patients with ESRD. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of dialysis patients from a single center. VC was assessed by the aortic calcification index (ACI) using abdominal computed tomography. Patients were grouped by sex and stratified into low or high ACI groups, according to the median ACI value. The association between ACI and incident fracture was analyzed. Results Data from 593 patients (male n = 328, median ACI, 14.57; female n = 265, median ACI, 19.44) were included. During a median follow-up of 36.7 months, 71 patients (12.0%) developed fractures. The fracture-free survival rate was significantly lower in the high ACI group versus the low ACI group, both in males (P = 0.021) and females (P = 0.001). In males, multivariate analysis showed that the high ACI group and ACI per se were not significant risks for fracture. However, in females, both the high ACI group (adjusted hazard ratio, 2.720; P = 0.003) and ACI per se (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.768; P = 0.035) were independently associated with fracture after adjustment for confounding variables. Conclusion VC was independently associated with incident fracture in female patients with ESRD. There may be a sex-specific relationship between VC and fracture in patients with ESRD.

BMC Nephrol 2020; 21:121. [PMID: 32252657 PMCID: PMC7137513 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-020-01756-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2019] [Accepted: 03/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Vascular calcification progression has been associated with the loss of trabecular bone in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. There are few data evaluating the relationship between cortical bone loss and vascular calcification in this population. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the association between changes in cortical bone density and coronary artery calcification (CAC) progression in non-dialyzed CKD patients. Methods Changes of cortical and trabecular bone, and changes of calcium score, were analyzed using vertebral tomographic images from a prospective study. Automatic delineation of the cortical bone layer was performed by Image J software, and trabecular bone was determined by selecting a region of interest using Vitrea 2® software. Cortical and trabecular bone density (BD) were expressed in Hounsfield Units (HU), and coronary artery calcium score in Agatston Units (AU). Results Seventy asymptomatic patients [57.8 ± 10.2 years, 63% males, 20% diabetic, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) = 37.3 (24.8–51.3) mL/min/1.73m2] were followed for 24 months. The mean cortical and trabecular BD did not change over time. While 49 patients lost either bone, 29 (41%) patients lost cortical [− 4.4%/year (ranging from − 7.15 to − 0.5)] and 39 (56%) lost trabecular bone [− 3.15%/year (− 13.7 to − 0.25)]. There was no association between cortical and trabecular BD changes (p = 0.12). CAC was observed in 33 (46%) patients at baseline, and 30 (91%) of them showed CAC progression. While an inverse correlation between trabecular bone and calcium score changes was observed (p = 0.001), there was no correlation between cortical bone and calcium score changes (p = 0.34). Conclusion CKD patients experience either cortical or trabecular bone loss over time, but these changes do not take place simultaneously in all patients. Cortical, unlike trabecular bone loss, is not associated with vascular calcification progression in these patients.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Chronic kidney disease (CKD)-related osteoporosis is a major complication in patients with CKD, conferring a higher risk of adverse outcomes. We found that among those with diabetic kidney disease, this complication increased the risk of incident frailty, an important mediator of adverse outcomes. INTRODUCTION Renal osteodystrophy and chronic kidney disease (CKD)-related osteoporosis increases complications for patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Since musculoskeletal degeneration is central to frailty development, we investigated the relationship between baseline osteoporosis and the subsequent frailty risk in patients with DKD. METHODS From the Longitudinal Cohort of Diabetes Patients in Taiwan (n = 840,000), we identified 12,027 patients having DKD with osteoporosis and 24,054 propensity score-matched controls having DKD but without osteoporosis. The primary endpoint was incident frailty on the basis of a modified FRAIL scale. Patients were prospectively followed-up until the development of endpoints or the end of this study. The Kaplan-Meier technique and Cox proportional hazard regression were used to analyze the association between osteoporosis at baseline and incident frailty in these patients. RESULTS The mean age of the DKD patients was 67.2 years, with 55.4% female and a 12.6% prevalence of osteoporosis at baseline. After 3.5 ± 2.2 years of follow up, the incidence rate of frailty in patients having DKD with osteoporosis was higher than that in DKD patients without (6.6 vs. 5.7 per 1000 patient-year, p = 0.04). A Cox proportional hazard regression showed that after accounting for age, gender, obesity, comorbidities, and medications, patients having DKD with osteoporosis had a significantly higher risk of developing frailty (hazard ratio, 1.19; 95% confidence interval, 1.02-1.38) than those without osteoporosis. CONCLUSIONS CKD-related osteoporosis is associated with a higher risk of incident frailty in patients with DKD.

Bone 2020; 133:115186.

Abstract
Osteocytes play a key role in the pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the extent to which osteocytes contribute to abnormalities in bone turnover due to excessive levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) remains poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which bone formation and tissue strength during the progression of CKD is modified through osteocytes' response to PTH. Conditional knockout mice targeting osteocytes' expression of the PTH/PTH-related protein type 1 receptor (PPR) were subjected to adenine-induced CKD. After 6-weeks of treatment, adenine-induced CKD was found to reduce bone formation at the periosteal and endocortical surfaces of the tibia. The loss in bone mass corresponded with a significant decrease in structural-level mechanical properties. In knockout mice, the loss of PPR expression in osteocytes further exacerbated the loss in bone formation at the endocortical surface, but inhibited bone loss at the periosteal surface. In general, the effects of adenine-induced CKD were not as extensive in female mice. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that osteocytes' response to PTH under adenine-induced CKD has a unique impact on bone turnover that is specific to the periosteal and endocortical surfaces.

Abstract
Individuals with chronic kidney disease have elevated levels of oxidative stress and are at a significantly higher risk of skeletal fracture. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which accumulate in bone and compromise mechanical properties, are known to be driven in part by oxidative stress. The goal of this study was to study effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on reducing oxidative stress and improving various bone parameters, most specifically mechanical properties, in an animal model of progressive CKD. Male Cy/+ (CKD) rats and unaffected littermates were untreated (controls) or treated with NAC (80 mg/kg, IP) from 30 to 35 weeks of age. Endpoint measures included serum biochemistries, assessments of systemic oxidative stress, bone morphology, and mechanical properties, and AGE levels in the bone. CKD rats had the expected phenotype that included low kidney function, elevated parathyroid hormone, higher cortical porosity, and compromised mechanical properties. NAC treatment had mixed effects on oxidative stress markers, significantly reducing TBARS (a measure of lipid peroxidation) while not affecting 8-OHdG (a marker of DNA oxidation) levels. AGE levels in the bone were elevated in CKD animals and were reduced with NAC although this did not translate to a benefit in bone mechanical properties. In conclusion, NAC failed to significantly improve bone architecture/geometry/mechanical properties in our rat model of progressive CKD.

Abstract
Osteopenia or osteoporosis occurs frequently in alcoholics and patients with alcoholic fatty liver disease. Methoxsalen (MTS), 8-methoxypsoralen, improved osteoporosis in ovariectomized and diabetic mouse models; however, its effects on alcohol-induced osteopenia and steatosis have not been reported. This study examined the effects of MTS on alcohol-induced bone loss and steatosis. Rats in the alcohol groups were fed a Liber-DeCarli liquid diet containing 36% of its calories as alcohol. MTS was at 0.005% in their diet, while alendronate (positive control; 500 μg/kg BW/day) was administered orally for eight weeks. The pair-fed group received the same volume of isocaloric liquid diet containing dextrin-maltose instead of alcohol as the alcohol control group consumed the previous day. In the alcohol-fed rats, the MTS and alendronate increased the bone volume density, bone surface density and trabecular number, while the bone specific surface, trabecular separation and structure model index were decreased in the tibia. MTS down-regulated tibial tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5 (TRAP) expression compared to the alcohol control group. MTS or alendronate prevented chronic alcohol-induced hepatic lipid accumulation and the triglyceride level in the alcohol-fed rats by decreasing the lipogenic enzyme activities and increasing the fatty acid oxidation enzyme activities. MTS reduced significantly the serum levels of alcohol, TRAP and tumor necrosis factor-α compared to the alcohol control group. Overall, these results suggest that MTS is likely to be an alternative agent for alcoholic osteopenia and hepatosteatosis.

Abstract
Mineral and bone disorder in chronic kidney disease (CKD-MBD) is a triad of biochemical imbalances of calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone and vitamin D, bone abnormalities and soft tissue calcification. Maintaining optimal bone health in children with CKD is important to prevent long-term complications, such as fractures, to optimise growth and possibly also to prevent extra-osseous calcification, especially vascular calcification. In this review, we discuss normal bone mineralisation, the pathophysiology of dysregulated homeostasis leading to mineralisation defects in CKD and its clinical consequences. Bone mineralisation is best assessed on bone histology and histomorphometry, but given the rarity with which this is performed, we present an overview of the tools available to clinicians to assess bone mineral density, including serum biomarkers and imaging such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and peripheral quantitative computed tomography. We discuss key studies that have used these techniques, their advantages and disadvantages in childhood CKD and their relationship to biomarkers and bone histomorphometry. Finally, we present recommendations from relevant guidelines-Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes and the International Society of Clinical Densitometry-on the use of imaging, biomarkers and bone biopsy in assessing bone mineral density. Given low-level evidence from most paediatric studies, bone imaging and histology remain largely research tools, and current clinical management is guided by serum calcium, phosphate, PTH, vitamin D and alkaline phosphatase levels only.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) results in a dramatic increase in skeletal fracture risk. Bisphosphates (BP) are an effective treatment for reducing fracture risk but they are not recommended in advanced CKD. We have recently shown higher acute skeletal accumulation of fluorescently-tagged zoledronate (ZOL) in the setting of CKD but how this accumulation is retained/lost over time is unclear. Furthermore, it is unknown if alternative dosing approaches can modulate accumulation in the setting of CKD. METHODS To address these two questions normal (NL) and Cy/+ (CKD) rats were divided into control groups (no dosing), a single dose of a fluorescent-tagged ZOL (FAM-ZOL), a single dose of non-labelled zoledronate (ZOL) or ten weekly doses of FAM-ZOL each at 1/10th the dose of the single dose group. Half of the CKD animals in each group were provided water with 3% calcium in drinking water (CKD + Ca) to suppress PTH and remodeling. At 30 or 35 weeks of age, serum, tibia, ulna, radius, vertebra, femora, and mandible were collected and subjected to assessment methods including biochemistry, dynamic histomorphometry and multi-spectral fluorescence levels (using IVIS SpectrumCT). RESULTS FAM-ZOL did not significantly reduce bone remodeling in either NL or CKD animals while Ca supplementation in CKD produced remodeling levels comparable to NL. At five- and ten-weeks post-dosing, both CKD and CKD + Ca groups had higher levels of FAM-ZOL in most, but not all, skeletal sites compared to NL with no difference between the two CKD groups suggesting that the rate of remodeling did not affect skeletal retention of FAM-ZOL. Fractionating the FAM-ZOL into ten weekly doses led to 20-32% less (p < 0.05) accumulation/retention of compound in the vertebra, radius, and ulna compared to administration as a single dose. CONCLUSIONS The rate of bone turnover does not have significant effects on levels of FAM-ZOL accumulation/retention in animals with CKD. A lower dose/more frequent administration paradigm results in lower levels of accumulation/retention over time. These data provide information that could better inform the use of bisphosphonates in the setting of CKD in order to combat the dramatic increase in fracture risk.

Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2019; 1865:165528.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a pathological condition associated with renal osteodystrophy for which there are limited treatment options. Gut-derived serotonin (GDS) is one of the key signaling factors controlling the osteoblast proliferation. Previously, we shown that inhibition of GDS synthesis by LP533401 improved bone mineral status of rats with 5/6 nephrectomy-induced CKD model. Here, we investigated whether the use of LP533401 can modify GDS-dependent molecular pathway involved in osteoblast formation and bone mineralization in CKD rats. The 8-weeks of pharmacological manipulation after a complete CKD development reduced GDS and lead to the advantage of endogenous vitamin D [25(OH)D] over serotonin and parathyroid hormone (PTH) in rats treated with LP533401. The imbalance between GDS - 25(OH)D - PTH resulted in the intensified expression of cAMP- responsive element-binding protein (Creb), whereas the expression of myelocytomatosis oncogene (c-Myc) was simultaneously reduced. This lead to disruption of Foxo1- activating transcription factor 4 (Atf4) complex, and decrease in the expression of the major osteogenic markers. The weakening of excessive osteoblastogenesis was associated with better bone mineral status in all rats with CKD, and especially in LP533401-treated animals. In conclusion, the inhibition of GDS synthesis resulted in the mitigation of osteoblastogenesis observed in CKD, which translated into improvement of bone mineral status. This study provides key mechanistic insights into how modification of GDS-dependent molecular pathway affects bone mineral status in CKD and lays the groundwork for translating the role of functional serotonin signaling in the origin of impaired bone mineral status in patients with CKD.

Abstract
The trabecular bone score (TBS) is a textural index that indirectly assesses bone trabecular microarchitecture using lumbar spine images obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). This study compared the TBS of patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) with that of matched controls to identify risk factors associated with a low TBS. TBS and bone mineral density (BMD) were assessed in ESKD patients (n = 76) and age- and sex-matched control subjects (n = 76) using DXA. The TBS of both groups was then compared, and risk factors associated with a low TBS (defined as ≤ 1.31) were evaluated. The mean TBS in the ESKD group was significantly lower than that in the control group (1.34 ± 0.15 vs. 1.43 ± 0.08, respectively; p < 0.001). More subjects in the ESKD group had a low TBS [34.2% (ESRD) vs. 5.3% (controls); p < 0.001]. The TBS was negatively correlated with age, alkaline phosphatase and C-reactive protein levels, and dialysis vintage, and positively correlated with BMD at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and hip. Multivariate analysis identified lower estimated glomerular filtration rate and increased C-reactive protein levels as being significantly associated with a low TBS. In conclusion, ESKD patients had abnormal bone microarchitecture (as assessed by the TBS). The TBS was positively correlated with BMD. Renal function and inflammatory marker levels were independently associated with a low TBS. Thus, TBS may be a useful clinical tool for assessing cancellous bone connectivity in ESKD patients.

Abstract
Durante anos a obesidade foi vista como um fator protetor para fraturas e osteoporose. Diversos estudos, no entanto, contestam esta tese, descrevendo que a obesidade na verdade afeta negativamente o sistema esquelético, em especial a homeostase óssea, diminuindo a rigidez do tecido ósseo e aumentando o risco de fraturas. A obesidade e o diabetes estão frequentemente associados no mesmo paciente, e a compreensão da alteração do tecido ósseo nestas duas condições clínicas é fundamental para o melhor cuidado destes pacientes, principalmente devido ao risco aumentado de fraturas, que estão associadas a maior número de complicações no seu tratamento. O presente estudo, em revisão narrativa, descreve a relação entre obesidade e homeostase óssea, a fragilidade óssea nos pacientes obesos, diabéticos ou não, e a relação entre obesidade e fraturas.

Abstract
Greater understanding of the determinants of skeletal fragility is highly sought due to the great burden that bone affecting diseases and fractures have on economies, societies and health care systems. Being a complex, hierarchical composite of collagen type-I and non-stoichiometric substituted hydroxyapatite, bone derives toughness from its organic phase. In this study, we tested whether early observations that a strong correlation between bone collagen integrity measured by thermomechanical methods and work to fracture exist in a more general and heterogeneous sampling of the population. Neighboring uniform specimens from an established, highly characterized and previously published collection of human cortical bone samples (femur mid-shaft) were decalcified in EDTA. Fifty-four of the original 62 donors were included (26 male and 28 females; ages 21-101 years; aging, osteoporosis, diabetes and cancer). Following decalcification, bone collagen was tested using hydrothermal isometric tension (HIT) testing in order to measure the collagen's thermal stability (denaturation temperature, Td) and network connectivity (maximum rate of isometric tension generation; Max.Slope). We used linear regression and general linear models (GLMs) with several explanatory variables to determine whether relationships between HIT parameters and generally accepted bone quality factors (e.g., cortical porosity, pentosidine content [pen], pyridinoline content [pyd]), age, and measures of fracture toughness (crack initiation fracture toughness, Kinit, and total energy release/dissipation rate evaluated at the point of unstable fast fracture, J-int) were significant. Bone collagen connectivity (Max.Slope) correlated well with the measures of fracture toughness (R2 = 24-35%), and to a lesser degree with bound water fraction (BW; R2 = 7.9%) and pore water fraction (PW; R2 = 9.1%). Significant correlations with age, apparent volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), and mature enzymatic [pyd] and non-enzymatic collagen crosslinks [pen] were not detected. GLMs found that Max.Slope and vBMD (or BW), with or without age as additional covariate, all significantly explained the variance in Kinit (adjusted-R2 = 36.7-49.0%). Also, the best-fit model for J-int (adjusted-R2 = 35.7%) included only age and Max.Slope as explanatory variables with Max.Slope contributing twice as much as age. Max.Slope and BW without age were also significant predictors of J-int (adjusted-R2 = 35.5%). In conclusion, bone collagen integrity as measured by thermomechanical methods is a key factor in cortical bone fracture toughness. This study further demonstrates that greater attention should be paid to degradation of the overall organic phase, rather than a specific biomarker (e.g. [pen]), when seeking to understand elevated fracture rates in aging and disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Little is known about bone mineralization and osteocyte lacunae properties in chronic kidney disease mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD). METHODS In this retrospective study, we measured the bone mineralization density distribution (BMDD) and osteocyte lacunar section (OLS) 2D-characteristics by quantitative backscatter electron imaging in Straumann drill biopsy samples from n=58 patients with CKD-MBD. Outcomes were studied in relation to serum parathyroid hormone (PTH), alkaline phosphatase (APH), histomorphometric bone turnover and treatment with cinacalcet or phosphate binders. RESULTS Lower calcium concentrations in bone from high turnover (average degree of bone mineralization -6.2%, p<0.001) versus low turnover patients were observed. OLS-characteristics were distinctly different (p<0.01 to p<0.05) in patients with highest compared to those with lowest turnover. Patients with cinacalcet had different OLS-characteristics (p<0.05) compared to those without cinacalcet. Furthermore, patients with phosphate binders had differences in BMDD and OLS-characteristics (p<0.05) compared to patients without phosphate binders. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that in patients with CKD-MBD secondary hyperparathyroidism and increased bone turnover decrease the average degree of bone matrix mineralization. Conversely, density and lacunar size of the osteocytes are increased compared to adynamic bone disease pointing at distinct patterns of bone mineralization and osteocyte lacunar properties in these two disease entities.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorders (CKD-MBD) are associated with increased risk of fracture. Studies report about 3% of fractures in CKD patients, and these occur earlier than in the general population, namely 16 and 13 years earlier for men and women, respectively. Better understanding of the pathophysiology of fractures would probably contribute to new therapeutic approaches. This study aimed to evaluate report of long bone fractures from a bone biopsies bank from patients on hemodialysis and compare clinical and biochemical characteristics, as well as the results of the histomorphometric analysis of trabecular and cortical bone of these patients with a control group (without fractures), paired for age, gender, and time on hemodialysis. Bone proteins (SOST, DMP1 and MEPE) were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Seventeen patients with fracture and controls were studied. Fracture prevalence was 0.82/1000 patients/year. Serum phosphorus levels were significantly lower in the fracture group. Histomorphometric analysis revealed that all the patients had high turnover disease, and the fracture group had smaller volume and trabecular thickness, greater osteoid surface, smaller eroded surface, smaller mineralizing surface, formation rate and longer mineralization lag time when compared to controls; the DMP1 expression in the cortical bone was smaller and the SOST in the trabecular bone was higher in fractured patients. As conclusion, we found low prevalence of fractures. Both groups had high turnover disease, but the fractured ones presented more impaired bone microarchitecture, as well as lower formation and greater mineralization defect. Bone proteins expression correlated with parameters involved in bone remodeling.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with bone loss and fractures. The purpose of this review is to provide clinicians with an overview of the underlying pathogenesis of CKD-associated osteoporosis, and a summary of the current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to this disease. RECENT FINDINGS In 2017, the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes Committee on Bone Quality updated their guidelines to include screening for osteoporosis and fracture risk by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in patients with CKD. Once a diagnosis of osteoporosis and/or fracture risk is established, it is not clear how nephrologists should manage their patients. Patients with CKD should be screened for CKD-associated osteoporosis and considered for strategies that prevent bone loss and fractures. Assessment of bone turnover via imaging, biochemical testing, or bone biopsy can help guide the choice of therapy. Randomized controlled trials are needed to assess safety and efficacy of treatments to prevent bone loss and fractures.

Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is the bone component of chronic kidney disease mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD). ROD affects bone quality and strength through the numerous hormonal and metabolic disturbances that occur in patients with kidney disease. Collectively these disorders in bone quality increase fracture risk in CKD patients compared with the general population. Fractures are a serious complication of kidney disease and are associated with higher morbidity and mortality compared with the general population. Furthermore, at a population level, fractures are at historically high levels in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), whereas in contrast the general population has experienced a steady decline in fracture incidence rates. Based on these findings, it is clear that a paradigm shift is needed in our approach to diagnosing and managing ROD. In clinical practice, our ability to diagnose ROD and initiate antifracture treatments is impeded by the lack of accurate noninvasive methods that identify ROD type. The past decade has seen advances in the noninvasive measurement of bone quality and strength that have been studied in kidney disease patients. Below we review the current literature pertaining to the epidemiology, pathology, diagnosis, and management of ROD. We aim to highlight the pressing need for a greater awareness of this condition and the need for the implementation of strategies that prevent fractures in kidney disease patients. Research is needed for more accurate noninvasive assessment of ROD type, clinical studies of existing osteoporosis therapies in patients across the spectrum of kidney disease, and the development of CKD-specific treatments. © 2018 The Authors.

Abstract
Musculocontractural Ehlers-Danlos syndrome caused by mutations in CHST14 (mcEDS-CHST14) is a recently delineated disorder, characterized by craniofacial, skeletal, visceral, and ocular malformations; and progressive cutaneous, skeletal, vascular, and visceral fragility-related manifestations. Spinal lesions, though one of the most serious complications, have not been investigated systematically. In this study, we report detailed and comprehensive information about spinal lesions of 12 patients with a mean age at the first visit of 13.4 years. Eight patients (66.7%) had scoliosis with a Cobb angle ≥10°, including one with severe scoliosis with a Cobb angle ≥45°. Five patients (41.7%) had kyphosis at the thoracolumbar junction with a kyphotic angle ≥20°. Three patients (25%) developed severe thoracolumbar kyphosis with a kyphotic angle ≥50° accompanied by thoracic lordosis with a wedge-like vertebral deformity and anterior vertebral osteophyte at the thoracolumbar junction, and two of them underwent surgical correction: complicated by fistula formation in one and performed safely and effectively through two-staged operation in the other. Six patients (50.0%) had cervical kyphosis, all of whom except one had kyphosis ≥20° at the thoracolumbar level. Two patients (16.7%) had atlantoaxial subluxation, and 10 patients (83.3%) had cervical vertebral malformations. Patients with mcEDS-CHST14 are susceptible to develop scoliosis, thoracolumbar kyphosis, and cervical kyphosis; and are recommended to have regular surveillance including total spine radiology. The present findings also suggest the critical role of dermatan sulfate in the development and maintenance of the spine.

Abstract
This work examines the skeletal accumulation of fluorescently tagged zoledronate in an animal model of chronic kidney disease. The results show higher accumulation in 24-h post-dose animals with lower kidney function due to greater amounts of binding at individual surfaces. INTRODUCTION Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients suffer from increased rates of skeletal-related mortality from changes driven by biochemical abnormalities. Bisphosphonates are commonly used in reducing fracture risk in a variety of diseases, yet their use is not recommended in advanced stages of CKD. This study aimed to characterize the accumulation of a single dose of fluorescently tagged zoledronate (FAM-ZOL) in the setting of reduced kidney function. METHODS At 25 weeks of age, FAM-ZOL was administered to normal and CKD rats. Twenty-four hours later, multiple bones were collected and assessed using bulk fluorescence imaging, two-photon imaging, and dynamic histomorphometry. RESULTS CKD animals had significantly higher levels of FAM-ZOL accumulation in the proximal tibia, radius, and ulna, but not in lumbar vertebral body or mandible, based on multiple measurement modalities. Although a majority of trabecular bone surfaces were covered with FAM-ZOL in both normal and CKD animals, the latter had significantly higher levels of fluorescence per unit bone surface in the proximal tibia. CONCLUSIONS These results provide new data regarding how reduced kidney function affects drug accumulation in rat bone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Long-term use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) reduces bone mineral density (BMD). Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), a new prodrug of tenofovir, has shown non-inferior efficacy to TDF in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, with improved bone effects at 48 weeks. We performed a randomized trial to evaluate the bone safety of TAF compared with TDF over 2 years, assessing baseline risk factors for bone loss, were evaluated after 2 years of treatment. METHODS In a double-blind study, hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive patients (n = 873) and HBeAg-negative patients (n = 425) were randomly assigned (2:1) to groups given TAF (25 mg; n = 866) or TDF (300 mg; n = 432) once daily. We assessed bone safety, including hip and spine BMD, using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and measured changes in serum markers of bone turnover over 96 weeks. RESULTS At baseline, treatment groups were well matched. At week 96, patients receiving TAF had significantly smaller decreases in hip BMD (mean reduction of 0.33%) than patients receiving TDF (mean reduction of 2.51%) (P < .001) and spine BMD (reduction of 0.75% in patients receiving patients receiving TAF vs reduction of 2.57% in patients receiving TDF) (P < .001). For hip BMD, the magnitude of difference in bone loss between the TAF and TDF groups increased at week 96 compared to week 48 (P < .001). The TAF group had minimal changes in markers of bone turnover by 12 weeks of treatment, but the TDF group had significant changes, compared to baseline. Risk factors for bone loss had fewer effects in patients receiving TAF than TDF at week 96. CONCLUSIONS In double-blind randomized trials, we found that after 2 years of treatment, patients receiving TAF had continued improvements in bone safety compared with patients receiving TDF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Patients with spina bifida (SB) are at risk for pathological fractures and low bone mineral density (BMD). PURPOSE AND METHODS This article reviews the literature and provides a comprehensive overview of how the characteristics of SB and its associated comorbidities intersect with bone fragility to identify possible pathophysiological mechanisms of fractures and low BMD. RESULTS Bone fragility occurs early in the life of patients with SB as a result of a disturbance that determines changes in bone shape, quantity, and quality, as poor mineralization reduces bone stiffness. Bone fragility in SB occurs due to local and systemic factors and may be considered a state of impaired bone quality of multifactorial aetiology, with complex interacting influences of neurological, metabolic, and endocrinological origins and the presence of smaller bones. Bone fragility should be evaluated globally according to skeletal age and Tanner staging. The phases of the evolution of Charcot joints seem to intercept the evolution of epiphyseal fractures. Charcot arthropathy in SB may be initiated by the occurrence of repetitive trauma and fractures in epiphyseal and subepiphyseal regions, where there is a deficit of bone mineralization and greater bone mass deficits. CONCLUSION Bone fragility in MMC potentially has a multifactorial neuro-endocrinological-metabolic-renal dimension, with smaller bones, lower bone mass, and mineralization deficits affecting bone strength.

Abstract
The link between low bone mineral density (BMD) scores leading to greater fracture risk is well established in the literature; what is not fully understood is the impact of total knee replacements/revisions or arthroplasties on BMD levels. This literature review attempts to answer this question. Several different databases using specific key terms were searched, with additional papers retrieved via bibliographic review. Based on the available evidence, total knee replacements/revisions and arthroplasties lower BMD and thus increase fracture risk. This review also addresses the possible implications of this research and possible options to reduce this risk.
