Incident Diuretic Use and Subsequent Risk of Bone Fractures: A Large Nationwide Observational Study of US Veterans. Mayo Clin Proc 2024; 99:913-926. [PMID: 38573302 DOI: 10.1016/j.mayocp.2023.09.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of incident use of diuretics with subsequent risk of incident bone fractures. PATIENTS AND METHODS In a nationwide cohort of 863,339 US veterans receiving care from the VA health care system between October 1, 2004, and September 30, 2006, with follow-up through June 30, 2018, we examined the association of incident diuretic use (overall, and separately by thiazide, loop, and potassium-sparing diuretics) with subsequent risk of incident bone fractures using multivariable Cox regression models while minimizing confounding by indication using a target trial emulation approach. RESULTS Patients were 63.3±12.9 years old; 93.5% (n=807,180) were male; and 27.1% (n=233,996) were diabetic. Their baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate was 84.4±16.5 mL/min per 1.73 m2. Among 863,339 patients, 424,386 (49.2%) newly initiated diuretics, of which 77.4% (n=328,524), 22.5% (n=95,457), and 0.1% (n=405) were thiazide, loop, and potassium-sparing diuretic users, respectively. After multivariable adjustments, incident diuretic use (vs non-use) was significantly associated with higher risk of incident fracture (adjusted HR [aHR], 1.14; 95% CI, 1.11 to 1.16). The association was most pronounced for loop diuretics (aHR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.35 to 1.44) but less evident for thiazide diuretics (aHR, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.06 to 1.10) and was not significant for potassium-sparing diuretics (aHR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.62 to 1.52). The diuretic-fracture association was more evident in younger (vs older) patients, those with (vs without) corticosteroid use, and those with lower (vs higher) serum sodium levels. CONCLUSION Incident use of diuretics, particularly loop diuretics, was independently associated with higher risk of incident bone fractures. Our findings suggest distinct pathophysiologic contributions of diuretics to bone metabolism and the need for careful attention to skeletal outcomes when initiating diuretics.

Abstract
We recently reported the potential of a new gallium compound, gallium acetylacetonate (GaAcAc) in combating osteoclastic bone resorption through inhibition of osteoclast differentiation and function. Herein, we focused on 3D-printed polylactic acid scaffolds that were loaded with GaAcAc and investigated the impact of scaffold pretreatment with polydopamine (PDA) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH). We observed a remarkable increase in scaffold hydrophilicity with PDA or NaOH pretreatment while biocompatibility and in vitro degradation were not affected. NaOH-pretreated scaffolds showed the highest amount of GaAcAc loading when compared to other scaffolds (p < 0.05). NaOH-pretreated scaffolds with GaAcAc loading showed effective reduction of osteoclast counts and size. The trend was supported by suppression of key osteoclast differentiation markers such as NFAT2, c-Fos, TRAF6, & TRAP. All GaAcAc-loaded scaffolds, regardless of surface pretreatment, were effective in inhibiting osteoclast function as evidenced by reduction in the number of resorptive pits in bovine cortical bone slices (p < 0.01). The suppression of osteoclast function according to the type of scaffold followed the ranking: GaAcAc loading without surface pretreatment > GaAcAc loading with NaOH pretreatment > GaAcAc loading with PDA pretreatment. Additional studies will be needed to fully elucidate the impact of surface pretreatment on the efficacy and safety of GaAcAc-loaded 3D-printed scaffolds.

Mesoporous bioactive glass scaffolds for the delivery of bone marrow stem cell-derived osteoinductive extracellular vesicles lncRNA promote senescent bone defect repair by targeting the miR-1843a-5p/Mob3a/YAP axis. Acta Biomater 2024; 177:486-505.

Abstract
Bone repair in elderly patients poses a huge challenge due to the age-related progressive decline in regenerative abilities attributed to the senescence of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs). Bioactive scaffolds have been applied in bone regeneration due to their various biological functions. In this study, we aimed to fabricate functionalized bioactive scaffolds through loading osteoinductive extracellular vesicles (OI-EVs) based on mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) scaffolds (1010 particles/scaffold) and to investigate its effects on osteogenesis and senescence of BMSCs. The results suggested that OI-EVs upregulate the proliferative and osteogenic capacities of senescent BMSCs. More importantly, The results showed that loading OI-EVs into MBG scaffolds achieved better bone regeneration. Furthermore, OI-EVs and BMSCs RNAs bioinformatics analysis indicated that OI-EVs play roles through transporting pivotal lncRNA acting as a "sponge" to compete with Mob3a for miR-1843a-5p to promote YAP dephosphorylation and nuclear translocation, ultimately resulting in elevated proliferation and osteogenic differentiation and reduced senescence-related phenotypes. Collectively, these results suggested that the OI-EVs lncRNA ceRNA regulatory networks might be the key point for senescent osteogenesis. More importantly, the study indicated the feasibility of loading OI-EVs into scaffolds and provided novel insights into biomaterial design for facilitating bone regeneration in the treatment of senescent bone defects. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Constructing OI-EVs/MBG delivering system and verification of its bone regeneration enhancement in senescent defect repair. Aging bone repair poses a huge challenge due to the age-related progressive degenerative decline in regenerative abilities attributed to the senescence of BMSCs. OI-EVs/MBG delivering system were expected as promising treatment for senescent bone repair, which could provide an effective strategy for bone regeneration in elderly patients. Clarification of potential OI-EVs lncRNA ceRNA regulatory mechanism in senescent bone regeneration OI-EVs play important roles through transferring lncRNA-ENSRNOG00000056625 sponging miR-1843a-5p that targeted Mob3a to activate YAP translocation into nucleus, ultimately alleviate senescence, promote proliferation and osteogenic differentiation in O-BMSCs, which provides theoretical basis for EVs-mediated therapy in future clinical works.

Abstract
Bone is primarily composed of collagen and apatite, two materials which exhibit a high sensitivity to pH dysregulation. As a result, acid exposure of bone, both clinically and in the laboratory is expected to cause compositional and mechanical changes to the tissue. Clinically, Metabolic acidosis (MA), a condition characterized by a reduced physiological pH, has been shown to have negative implications on bone health, including a decrease in bone mineral density and volume as well as increased fracture risk. The addition of bone-like apatite to ionic solutions such as phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and media has been shown to acidify the solution leading to bone acid exposure. Therefore, is it essential to understand how reduced pH physiochemically affects bone composition and in turn its mechanical properties. This study investigates the specific changes in bone due to physiochemical dissolution in acid. Excised murine bones were placed in PBS solutions at different pHs: a homeostatic pH level (pH 7.4), an acidosis equivalent (pH 7.0), and an extreme acidic solution (pH 5.5). After 5 days, the bones were removed from the solutions and characterized to determine compositional and material changes. We found that bones, without cells, were able to regulate pH via buffering, leading to a decrease in bone mineral content and an increase in collagen denaturation. Both of these compositional changes contributed to an increase in bone toughness by creating a more ductile bone surface and preventing crack propagation. Therefore, we conclude that the skeletal systems' physiochemical response to acid exposure includes multifaceted and spatially variable compositional changes that affect bone mechanics.

Abstract
Rotator cuff pathology is a common musculoskeletal condition that disproportionately affects older adults, as well as patients with diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. It is known that increased age and kidney dysfunction have been correlated to acidotic states, which may be related to the increased incidence of rotator cuff injury. In order to investigate the potential relationship between acidosis and rotator cuff composition and mechanics, this study utilizes a 14-day murine model of metabolic acidosis and examines the effects on the supraspinatus tendon-humeral head attachment complex. The elastic matrix in the enthesis exhibited significant changes beginning at day 3 of acidosis exposure. At day 3 and day 7 timepoints, there was a decrease in collagen content seen in both mineralized and unmineralized tissue as well as a decrease in mineral:matrix ratio. There is also evidence of both mineral dissolution and reprecipitation as buffering ions continually promote pH homeostasis. Mechanical properties of the tendon-to-bone attachment were studied; however, no significant changes were elicited in this 14-day model of acidosis. These findings suggest that acidosis can result in significant changes in enthesis composition over the course of 14 days; however, enthesis mechanics may be more structurally mediated rather than affected by compositional changes.

Abstract
Bone disease is highly prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), leading to an increased risk of bone fractures. This is due in part to metabolic acid-induced bone dissolution. Bisphosphonates (BPPs) are a potential treatment for inhibiting bone dissolution; however, there are limited studies observing the use of BPPs on acidotic patients. We aimed to determine efficacy of BPPs on maintaining bone health and pH regulation in acid-exposed mice. Using a diet-induced murine model of metabolic acidosis, we examined bone structure, composition, and mechanics as well as blood gases for three groups: control, acidosis, and acidosis + bisphosphonates (acidosis+BPP). Acidosis was induced for 14 days and alendronate was administered every 3 days for the acidosis+BPP group. The administration of BPP had little to no effect on bone structure, mechanics, and composition of the acidosis bones. However, administration of BPP did cause the mice to develop more severe acidosis than the acidosis only group. Overall, we discovered that BPPs may exacerbate acidosis symptoms by inhibiting the release of buffering ions from bone. Therefore, we propose that BPP administration should be carefully considered for those with CKD and that alkali supplementation could help minimize acidifying effects.

Abstract
Background Observational studies have investigated the associations between antihypertensive drugs and fracture risk as well as bone mineral density (BMD), but yielding controversial results. Methods In this study, a comprehensive drug-target Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted to systematically examine the associations between genetic proxies for eight common antihypertensive drugs and three bone health-related traits (fracture, total body BMD [TB-BMD], and estimated heel BMD [eBMD]). The main analysis used the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method to estimate the causal effect. Multiple MR methods were also employed to test the robustness of the results. Results The genetic proxies for angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) were associated with a reduced risk of fracture (odds ratio [OR] = 0.67, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.54 to 0.84; P = 4.42 × 10-4; P-adjusted = 0.004), higher TB-BMD (β = 0.36, 95% CI: 0.11 to 0.61; P = 0.005; P-adjusted = 0.022), and higher eBMD (β = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.21 to 0.38; P = 3.59 × 10-12; P-adjusted = 6.55 × 10-11). Meanwhile, genetic proxies for calcium channel blockers (CCBs) were associated with an increased risk of fracture (OR = 1.07, 95% CI: 1.03 to 1.12; P = 0.002; P-adjusted = 0.013). Genetic proxies for potassium sparing diuretics (PSDs) showed negative associations with TB-BMD (β = -0.61, 95% CI: -0.88 to -0.33; P = 1.55 × 10-5; P-adjusted = 1.86 × 10-4). Genetic proxies for thiazide diuretics had positive associations with eBMD (β = 0.11, 95% CI: 0.03 to 0.18; P = 0.006; P-adjusted = 0.022). No significant heterogeneity or pleiotropy was identified. The results were consistent across different MR methods. Conclusions These findings suggest that genetic proxies for ARBs and thiazide diuretics may have a protective effect on bone health, while genetic proxies for CCBs and PSDs may have a negative effect.

Abstract
Background Thiazide diuretics, a commonly used class of anti-hypertensives, have been associated with increased areal bone mineral density (aBMD). Data regarding effects on fracture are conflicting and no information is available regarding effects on skeletal microstructure and mechanical competence. Methods We compared skeletal microstructure, volumetric BMD (vBMD), stiffness and prevalent fractures in current thiazide diuretic users and non-users from a population-based multiethnic cohort of elderly adults age ≥ 65 years (N = 599) with high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) and micro-finite element analysis. Results Female current thiazide diuretic users had higher weight and BMI and were more likely to be non-Caucasian compared to non-users. There were no differences in age, historical fractures or falls between female users and non-users. Female thiazide users tended to have lower calcium and vitamin d intake compared to non-users. After adjusting for age, weight, race and other covariates, 1/3-radius mean aBMD by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was 3.2% (p = 0.03) higher in female users vs. non-users. By HRpQCT, adjusted mean cortical vBMD was 2.4% (p = 0.03) higher at the radius in female users vs. non-users, but there was no difference in stiffness. DXA results were similar in the subset of Black females. There was no difference in any adjusted aBMD or cortical skeletal parameters by DXA or HRpQCT respectively in males. Conclusions Thiazide use was associated with a modestly higher aBMD at the predominantly cortical 1/3-radius site and radial cortical vBMD by HRpQCT in females. The effect on cortical bone may offer skeletal benefits in women taking thiazides for other indications such as hypertension, hypercalciuria or recurrent nephrolithiasis.

Abstract
Due to continuous bone remodeling, the bone tissue is dynamic and constantly being updated. Bone remodeling is precisely regulated by the balance between osteoblast-induced bone formation and osteoclast-induced bone resorption. As a giant multinucleated cell, formation and activities of osteoclasts are regulated by macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL), and by pathological destabilization of the extracellular microenvironment. Microenvironmental acidosis, as the prime candidate, is a driving force of multiple biological activities of osteoclast precursor and osteoclasts. The mechanisms involved in these processes, especially acid-sensitive receptors/channels, are of great precision and complicated. Recently, remarkable progress has been achieved in the field of acid-sensitive mechanisms of osteoclasts. It is important to elucidate the relationship between microenvironmental acidosis and excessive osteoclasts activity, which will help in understanding the pathophysiology of diseases that are associated with excess bone resorption. This review summarizes physiological consequences and in particular, potential mechanisms of osteoclast precursor or osteoclasts in the context of acidosis microenvironments.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest a positive association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a disorder associated with intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation, and derangements in bone metabolism. However, no prospective study to date has investigated the association between OSA and fracture risk in women. We conducted a prospective study examining the relation between OSA and risk of incident vertebral fracture (VF) and hip fracture (HF) in the Nurses' Health Study. History of physician-diagnosed OSA was assessed by self-reported questionnaires. A previous validation study demonstrated high concordance between self-reports and medical record identification of OSA. OSA severity was further categorized according to the presence or absence of self-reported sleepiness. Self-reports of VF were confirmed by medical record review. Self-reported HF was assessed by biennial questionnaires. Cox proportional-hazards models estimated the hazard ratio for fracture according to OSA status, adjusted for potential confounders, including BMI, physical activity, calcium intake, history of osteoporosis, and falls, and use of sleep medications. Among 55,264 women without prior history of fracture, physician-diagnosed OSA was self-reported in 1.3% in 2002 and increased to 3.3% by 2012. Between 2002 and 2014, 461 incident VF cases and 921 incident HF cases were documented. The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for confirmed VF for women with history of OSA was 2.00 (95% CI, 1.29-3.12) compared with no OSA history, with the strongest association observed for OSA with daytime sleepiness (HR 2.86; 95% CI, 1.31-6.21). No association was observed between OSA history and self-reported HF risk (HR 0.83; 95% CI, 0.49-1.43). History of OSA is independently associated with higher risk of confirmed VF but did not have a statistically significant association with self-reported HF in women. Further research is warranted in understanding the role of OSA and intermittent hypoxia in bone metabolism and health that may differ by fracture site. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
To maintain normal cellular and physiological function, sufficient oxygen is required. Recently, evidence has suggested that hypoxia, either pathological or environmental, may influence bone health. It appears that bone cells are distinctly responsive to hypoxic stimuli; for better or worse, this is still yet to be elucidated. Hypoxia has been shown to offer potentially therapeutic effects for bone by inducing an osteogenic-angiogenic response, although, others have noted excessive osteoclastic bone resorption instead. Much evidence suggests that the hypoxic-inducible pathway is integral in mediating the changes in bone metabolism. Furthermore, many factors associated with hypoxia including changes in energy metabolism, acid-base balance and the increased generation of reactive oxygen species, are known to influence bone metabolism. This review aims to examine some of the putative mechanisms responsible for hypoxic-induced alterations of bone metabolism, with regard to osteoclasts and osteoblasts, both positive and negative.

Abstract
Fragility hip fractures and their associated morbidity and mortality pose a global healthcare problem. Several pharmaceutical products have been postulated to alter bone architecture and contribute to fragility hip fractures. We searched four electronic databases from inception to September 2017. Inclusion criteria were the following: (1) adult patients with fragility hip fractures, (2) full text in English, (3) minimum one-year follow-up, and (4) reporting of at least one risk factor. To minimize heterogeneity among the studies, we performed subgroup analyses. Whenever heterogeneity remained significant, we employed random effect meta-analysis for data pooling. Thirty-eight studies were included, containing 1,244,155 subjects and 188,966 cases of fragility hip fractures. Following medications were significantly associated with fragility hip fractures: Antidepressants (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.98-2.17), antiparkinsonian drugs (OR 2.21, 95% CI 1.15-4.24), antipsychotic drugs (OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.50-2.66), anxiolytic drugs (OR 1.44, 95% CI 1.19-1.75), benzodiazepines (OR 1.84, 95% CI 1.26-2.69), sedatives (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.14-1.54), systemic corticosteroids (OR 1.65, 95% CI 1.37-1.99), H2 antagonists (OR 1.21, 95% CI 1.18-1.24), proton pump inhibitors (OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.16-1.71), and thyroid hormone (OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.13-1.47). Hormone replacement therapy with estrogen (HRT) was associated with decreased risk of hip fracture (OR 0.80, 95% CI 0.65-0.98). There are several medications associated with sustaining a fragility hip fracture. Medical interventions should be considered for patients on these medications, including information about osteoporosis and fracture prevention.

Abstract
Skeletal involvement is a frequent and troublesome complication in advanced cancers. In the process of tumor cells homing to the skeleton to form bone metastases (BM), different mechanisms allow tumor cells to interact with cells of the bone microenvironment and seed in the bone tissue. Among these, tumor acidosis has been directly associated with tumor invasion and aggressiveness in several types of cancer although it has been less explored in the context of BM. In bone, the association of local acidosis and cancer invasiveness is even more important for tumor expansion since the extracellular matrix is formed by both organic and hard inorganic matrices and bone cells are used to sense protons and adapt or react to a low pH to maintain tissue homeostasis. In the BM microenvironment, increased concentration of protons may derive not only from glycolytic tumor cells but also from tumor-induced osteoclasts, the bone-resorbing cells, and may influence the progression or symptoms of BM in many different ways, by directly enhancing cancer cell motility and aggressiveness, or by modulating the functions of bone cells versus a pro-tumorigenic phenotype, or by inducing bone pain. In this review, we will describe and discuss the cause of acidosis in BM, its role in BM microenvironment, and which are the final effectors that may be targeted to treat metastatic patients.

Abstract
The association between thiazide use and fracture risk is still controversial. We conducted an updated meta-analysis on the association between thiazide use and fracture risk. We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane library databases for all types of human studies, including observational and experimental studies that were published up until July 2019. We also manually searched the reference lists of relevant studies. The pooled relative risks (RRs) with 95% credible interval (CrI) were calculated using a Bayesian hierarchical random effect model. A total of 19 case-control (N = 496,568 subjects) and 21 cohort studies (N = 4,418,602 subjects) were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled RR for fractures associated with thiazide use was 0.87 (95% CrI: 0.70–0.99) in case-control and 0.95 (95% CrI: 0.85–1.08) in cohort studies. The probabilities that thiazide use reduces any fracture risk by more than 0% were 93% in case-control studies and 72% in cohort studies. Significant heterogeneity was found for both case-control (p < 0.001, I2 = 75%) and cohort studies (p < 0.001, I2 = 97.2%). Thiazide use was associated with reduced fracture risk in case-control studies, but not in cohort studies. The associations demonstrated in case-control studies might be driven by inherent biases, such as selection bias and recall bias. Thus, thiazide use may not be a protective factor for fractures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study were to analyze the effect of pH on the growth and activity of osteoclasts treated with different doses of two nitrogen-containing BPs, zoledronate and alendronate. MATERIALS AND METHODS Murine osteoclasts cultured on dentine disks were treated with zoledronate (50 or 500 nM) or alendronate (500 or 5 μM) at two different pH values (7.4 or 7.0). Osteoclasts were counted with transmitted light microscopy, apoptosis/necrosis was studied with flow cytometry and confocal microscopy, and resorption pit number and depth were calculated using reflected light and scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS The osteoclast count on dentine disks was significantly (p < 0.001) reduced by zoledronate or alendronate treatment at pH 7.0 in comparison to treatment with the same doses at pH 7.4 and untreated disks (controls). The percentage of apoptotic cells was significantly increased by treatment with 500 nM zoledronate or 5 μM alendronate at pH 7.0 in comparison to the same doses at pH 7.4. The number and depth of resorption pits were significantly lower in disks treated at each BP dose studied than in untreated controls at pH 7.0. CONCLUSIONS Zoledronate and alendronate at therapeutic doses have an adverse effect on the viability and resorptive activity of osteoclasts when the local medium pH is reduced. CLINICAL RELEVANCE These findings suggest that periodontal or peri-implant oral cavity infection may be a key trigger of the cascade of events that lead to BRONJ.

Cooperative electrogenic proton transport pathways in the plasma membrane of the proton-secreting osteoclast. Pflugers Arch 2018; 470:851-866.

Abstract
A proton is a ubiquitous signaling ion. Many transmembrane H+ transport pathways either maintain pH homeostasis or generate acidic compartments. The osteoclast is a bone-resorbing cell, which degrades bone tissues by secreting protons and lysosomal enzymes into the resorption pit. The plasma membrane facing bone tissue (ruffled border), generated partly by fusion of lysosomes, may mimic H+ flux mechanisms regulating acidic vesicles. We identified three electrogenic H+-fluxes in osteoclast plasma membranes-a vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase), a voltage-gated proton channel (Hv channel) and an acid-inducible H+-leak-whose electrophysiological profiles and regulation mechanisms differed. V-ATPase and Hv channel, both may have intracellular reservoirs, but the recruitment/internalization is regulated independently. V-ATPase mediates active H+ efflux, acidifying the resorption pit, while acid-inducible H+ leak, activated at an extracellular pH < 5.5, diminishes pit acidification, possibly to protect bone from excess degradation. The two-way H+ flux mechanisms in opposite directions may have advantages in fine regulation of pit pH. Hv channel mediates passive H+ efflux. Although its working ranges are limited, the amount of H+ extrusion is 100 times larger than those of the V-ATPase and may support reactive oxygen species production during osteoclastogenesis. Extracellular Ca2+, H+ and inorganic phosphate, which accumulate in the resorption pit, will either stimulate or inhibit these H+ fluxes. Skeletal integration is disrupted by too much or too less of bone resorption. Diversities in plasma membrane H+ flux pathways, which may co-operate or compete, are essential to adjust osteoclast functions in variable conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the association between thiazide use and the risk of hip fracture after stroke. SETTING A population-based, propensity-matched cohort study was conducted on the basis of Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. PARTICIPANTS Patients with newly diagnosed ischaemic stroke between 2000 and 2011 were included. After propensity score matching, 7470 patients were included, of whom 3735 received thiazides and 3735 did not. OUTCOME MEASURES HRs for developing hip fractures within 2 years after stroke were calculated using Cox proportional hazards regression model with adjustments for sociodemographic and coexisting medical conditions. RESULTS Overall, patients using thiazides after stroke had a lower risk of hip fracture than those not using thiazides (8.5 vs 13.9 per 1000 person-years, adjusted HR=0.64, 95% CI 0.46 to 0.89, p=0.007). Further sensitivity analysis based on the duration of thiazide use revealed that the risk of hip fracture tended to decrease as the duration of exposure of thiazides increased. However, the effect was significant only in patients with long-term use of thiazides (using thiazides for >365 days within 2 years after stroke), with a 59% reduction in the risk of hip fracture when compared with patients not using thiazide (adjusted HR=0.41, 95% CI 0.22 to 0.79, p=0.008). CONCLUSIONS The long-term use of thiazides is associated with a decreased risk of hip fracture after stroke.

Abstract
Nowadays, salt consumption appears to be drastically above the recommended level in industrialized countries. The health consequences of this overconsumption are heavy since high-salt intake induces cardiovascular disease, kidney dysfunction, and stroke. Moreover, harmful interaction may also occur with orthopaedic devices because overconsumption of salt reinforces the corrosive aspect of biological tissues and favors bone resorption process. In the present study, we aimed to assess the in vivo effect of three weeks of a high-salt diet, associated (or not) with two weeks of the neuro-myoelectrostimulation (NMES) rehabilitation program on the biocompatibility of four biomaterials used in the manufacture of arthroplasty implants. Thus, two non-metallic (PEEK and Al2O3) and two metallic (Ti6Al4V and CrCo) compounds were implanted in the rat tibial crest, and the implant-to-bone adhesion and cell viability of two surrounded muscles, the Flexor Digitorum (FD) and Tibialis Anterior (TA), were assessed at the end of the experiment. Results indicated lower adhesion strength for the PEEK implant compared to other biomaterials. An effect of NMES and a high-salt diet was only identified for Al2O3 and Ti6Al4V implants, respectively. Moreover, compared to a normal diet, a high-salt diet induced a higher number of dead cells on both muscles for all biomaterials, which was further increased for PEEK, Al2O3, and CrCo materials with NMES application. Finally, except for Ti6Al4V, NMES induced a higher number of dead cells in the directly stimulated muscle (FD) compared to the indirectly stimulated one (TA). This in vivo experiment highlights the potential harmful effect of a high-salt diet for people who have undergone arthroplasty, and a rehabilitation program based on NMES.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences between patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and phenotypically similar subjects without OSAS in terms of bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover markers. The study was conducted on 30 males diagnosed with OSAS and 20 healthy males. All subjects underwent polysomnographic testing. Calcium, phosphorus parathyroid hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, osteocalcin, and beta-CrossLaps (β-CTx) were measured. BMD in the lumbar spine (L1-L4) and femoral neck was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of demographic data with the exception of bone mass index and waist circumference. (p < 0.05). Analyses showed significantly lower BMD measurements in the femoral neck and T-scores in the femoral neck in patients diagnosed with OSAS. Serum β-CTx levels were found to be statistically significantly higher in the OSAS group (p = 0.017). In multivariate assessments performed for apnea/hypopnea index values, mean saturation O2 levels were found to be significantly associated with osteocalcin levels and neck BMD. OSAS patients might represent a risk group with respect to loss of BMD and bone resorption. It is important to evaluate bone loss in these patients. Further studies should be carried out on larger study populations to evaluate the effects of chronic hypoxia on BMD in detail.

Abstract
The adverse effect of acidosis on the skeletal system has been recognized for almost a century. Although the underlying mechanism has not been fully elucidated, it appears that acidosis acts as a general stimulator of osteoclasts derived from bone marrow precursors cells and enhances osteoclastic resorption. Prior work suggests that acidosis plays a significant role in osteoclasts formation and activation via up-regulating various genes responsible for its adhesion, migration, survival and bone matrix degradation. Understanding the role of acidosis in osteoclast biology may lead to development of novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of diseases related to low bone mass. In this review, we aim to discuss the recent investigations into the effects of acidosis in osteoclast biology and the acid-sensing molecular mechanism.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The role of acid-base metabolism in bone health is controversial. In this meta-analysis, potassium bicarbonate and potassium citrate lowered urinary calcium and acid excretion and reduced the excretion of the bone resorption marker NTX. These salts may thus be beneficial to bone health by conserving bone mineral. INTRODUCTION The role of acid-base homeostasis as a determinant of bone health and the contribution of supplemental alkali in promoting skeletal integrity remain a subject of debate. The objective of this study was, therefore, to conduct a meta-analysis to assess the effects of supplemental potassium bicarbonate (KHCO3) and potassium citrate (KCitr) on urinary calcium and acid excretion, markers of bone turnover and bone mineral density (BMD) and to compare their effects with that of potassium chloride (KCl). METHODS A total of 14 studies of the effect of alkaline potassium salts on calcium metabolism and bone health, identified by a systematic literature search, were analysed with Review Manager (Version 5; The Cochrane Collaboration) using a random-effects model. Authors were contacted to provide missing data as required. Results are presented as the standardised (SMD) or unstandardized mean difference (MD) (95 % confidence intervals). RESULTS Urinary calcium excretion was lowered by intervention with both KHCO3 (P = 0.04) and KCitr (P = 0.01), as was net acid excretion (NAE) (P = 0.002 for KHCO3 and P = 0.0008 for KCitr). Both salts significantly lowered the bone resorption marker NTX (P < 0.00001). There was no effect on bone formation markers or BMD. KHCO3 and KCitr lowered calcium excretion to a greater extent than did KCl. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis confirms that supplementation with alkaline potassium salts leads to significant reduction in renal calcium excretion and acid excretion, compatible with the concept of increased buffering of hydrogen ions by raised circulating bicarbonate. The observed reduction in bone resorption indicates a potential benefit to bone health.

Abstract
β-Tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) ceramics are approved for the repair of osseous defects. In large defects, however, the substitution of the material by authentic bone is inadequate to provide sufficient long-term mechanical stability. We aimed to develop composites of β-TCP ceramics and receptor activator of nuclear factor κ-B ligand (RANKL) to enhance the formation of osteoclasts and promote cell mediated calcium phosphate resorption. RANKL was adsorbed superficially onto β-TCP ceramics or incorporated into a crystalline layer of calcium phosphate by the use of a co-precipitation technique. Murine osteoclast precursors were seeded onto the ceramics. After 15 days, the formation of osteoclasts was quantified cytologically and colorimetrically with tartrate-resistant acidic phosphatase (TRAP) staining and TRAP activity measurements, respectively. Additionally, the expression of transcripts encoding the osteoclast gene products cathepsin K, calcitonin receptor, and of the sodium/hydrogen exchanger NHA2 were quantified by real-time PCR. The activity of newly formed osteoclasts was evaluated by means of a calcium phosphate resorption assay. Superficially adsorbed RANKL did not induce the formation of osteoclasts on β-TCP ceramics. When co-precipitated onto β-TCP ceramics RANKL supported the formation of mature osteoclasts. The development of osteoclast lineage cells was further confirmed by the increased expression of cathepsin K, calcitonin receptor, and NHA2. Incorporated RANKL stimulated the cells to resorb crystalline calcium phosphate. Our in vitro study shows that RANKL incorporated into β-TCP ceramics induces the formation of active, resorbing osteoclasts on the material surface. Once formed, osteoclasts mediate the release of RANKL thereby perpetuating their differentiation and activation. In vivo, the stimulation of osteoclast-mediated resorption may contribute to a coordinated sequence of material resorption and bone formation. Further in vivo studies are needed to confirm the current in vitro findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heavy alcohol consumption during pregnancy negatively impacts the physical growth of the fetus. Although the deleterious effects of alcohol exposure during late gestation on fetal brain development are well documented, little is known about the effect on fetal bone mechanical properties or the underlying mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of late gestational chronic binge alcohol consumption and alcohol-induced acidemia, a critical regulator of bone health, on functional properties of the fetal skeletal system. METHODS Suffolk ewes were mated and received intravenous infusions of saline or alcohol (1.75 g/kg) over 1 hour on 3 consecutive days per week followed by 4 days without treatment beginning on gestational day (GD) 109 and concluding on GD 132 (term = 147 days). The acidemia group was exposed to increased inspired fractional concentrations of CO2 to closely mimic the alcohol-induced decreases in maternal arterial pH seen in the alcohol group. RESULTS Fetal femurs and tibias from the alcohol and acidemia groups were ~3 to 7% shorter in length compared with the control groups (p < 0.05). Three-point bending procedure demonstrated that fetal femoral ultimate strength (MPa) for the alcohol group was decreased (p < 0.05) by ~24 and 29%, while the acidemia group exhibited a similar decrease (p < 0.05) of ~32 and 37% compared with the normal control and saline control groups, respectively. Bone extrinsic and intrinsic mechanical properties including maximum breaking force (N) and normalized breaking force (N/kg) of fetal bones from the alcohol and acidemia groups were significantly decreased (p < 0.05) compared with both control groups. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that late gestational chronic binge alcohol exposure reduces growth and impairs functional properties of the fetal skeletal system and that the repeated episodes of alcohol-induced maternal acidemia may be at least partially responsible for these effects.

Abstract
Increased cancer risk is associated with select dietary factors. Dietary lifestyles can alter systemic acid-base balance over time. Acidogenic diets, which are typically high in animal protein and salt and low in fruits and vegetables, can lead to a sub-clinical or low-grade state of metabolic acidosis. The relationship between diet and cancer risk prompts questions about the role of acidosis in the initiation and progression of cancer. Cancer is triggered by genetic and epigenetic perturbations in the normal cell, but it has become clear that microenvironmental and systemic factors exert modifying effects on cancer cell development. While there are no studies showing a direct link between diet-induced acidosis and cancer, acid-base disequilibrium has been shown to modulate molecular activity including adrenal glucocorticoid, insulin growth factor (IGF-1), and adipocyte cytokine signaling, dysregulated cellular metabolism, and osteoclast activation, which may serve as intermediary or downstream effectors of carcinogenesis or tumor promotion. In short, diet-induced acidosis may influence molecular activities at the cellular level that promote carcinogenesis or tumor progression. This review defines the relationship between dietary lifestyle and acid-base balance and discusses the potential consequences of diet-induced acidosis and cancer occurrence or progression.

Abstract
The P2X₇ receptor is an ATP-gated cation channel expressed by a number of cell types, including osteoblasts. Genetically modified mice with loss of P2X₇ function exhibit altered bone formation. Moreover, activation of P2X₇ in vitro stimulates osteoblast differentiation and matrix mineralization, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Because osteogenesis is associated with enhanced cellular metabolism, our goal was to characterize the effects of nucleotides on metabolic acid production (proton efflux) by osteoblasts. The P2X₇ agonist 2',3'-O-(4-benzoylbenzoyl)ATP (BzATP; 300 μM) induced dynamic membrane blebbing in MC3T3-E1 osteoblast-like cells (consistent with activation of P2X₇ receptors) but did not induce cell death. Using a Cytosensor microphysiometer, we found that 9-min exposure to BzATP (300 μM) caused a dramatic increase in proton efflux from MC3T3-E1 cells (∼2-fold), which was sustained for at least 1 h. In contrast, ATP or UTP (100 μM), which activate P2 receptors other than P2X₇, failed to elicit a sustained increase in proton efflux. Specific P2X₇ receptor antagonists A 438079 and A 740003 inhibited the sustained phase of the BzATP-induced response. Extracellular Ca²⁺ was required during P2X₇ receptor stimulation for initiation of sustained proton efflux, and removal of extracellular glucose within the sustained phase abolished the elevation elicited by BzATP. In addition, inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase blocked the maintenance but not initiation of the sustained phase. Taken together, we conclude that brief activation of P2X₇ receptors on osteoblast-like cells triggers a dramatic, Ca²⁺-dependent stimulation of metabolic acid production. This increase in proton efflux is sustained and dependent on glucose and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity.

Abstract
This chapter describes quantitative methods for isolating and culturing rodent osteoclasts on dentine, a bone-like, resorbable substrate. These techniques generate relatively large numbers of osteoclasts and allow the key processes of osteoclast formation and activation to be studied independently. A special focus will be on the role of extracellular pH, a critical factor in the control of osteoclast function.

Abstract
Chronic ulcerative dermatopathy (CUD) also known as chronic erosive dermatopathy, hole-in-the-head, head and lateral line erosion syndrome (HLLE) and lateral line depigmentation (LLD) is a chronic disease of unknown aetiology that affects the lateral line canals of the head and the trunk of various fish species. It has been described only in freshwater species although there are reports that it also affects marine fish. Here, we describe the disease in cultured sharpsnout sea bream using histology and scanning electron microscopy and identify several marine species as CUD sensitive. The results of this study correlate the development of the disease with the use of borehole water, indicating that the aetiology is probably associated with water quality rather than nutritional imbalance or infectious agents.

Abstract
Background Modern diets have been suggested to increase systemic acid load and net acid excretion. In response, alkaline diets and products are marketed to avoid or counteract this acid, help the body regulate its pH to prevent and cure disease. The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate causal relationships between dietary acid load and osteoporosis using Hill's criteria. Methods Systematic review and meta-analysis. We systematically searched published literature for randomized intervention trials, prospective cohort studies, and meta-analyses of the acid-ash or acid-base diet hypothesis with bone-related outcomes, in which the diet acid load was altered, or an alkaline diet or alkaline salts were provided, to healthy human adults. Cellular mechanism studies were also systematically examined. Results Fifty-five of 238 studies met the inclusion criteria: 22 randomized interventions, 2 meta-analyses, and 11 prospective observational studies of bone health outcomes including: urine calcium excretion, calcium balance or retention, changes of bone mineral density, or fractures, among healthy adults in which acid and/or alkaline intakes were manipulated or observed through foods or supplements; and 19 in vitro cell studies which examined the hypothesized mechanism. Urine calcium excretion rates were consistent with osteoporosis development; however calcium balance studies did not demonstrate loss of whole body calcium with higher net acid excretion. Several weaknesses regarding the acid-ash hypothesis were uncovered: No intervention studies provided direct evidence of osteoporosis progression (fragility fractures, or bone strength as measured using biopsy). The supporting prospective cohort studies were not controlled regarding important osteoporosis risk factors including: weight loss during follow-up, family history of osteoporosis, baseline bone mineral density, and estrogen status. No study revealed a biologic mechanism functioning at physiological pH. Finally, randomized studies did not provide evidence for an adverse role of phosphate, milk, and grain foods in osteoporosis. Conclusions A causal association between dietary acid load and osteoporotic bone disease is not supported by evidence and there is no evidence that an alkaline diet is protective of bone health.

Abstract
Bone homeostasis is profoundly affected by local pH and oxygen tension. It has long been recognised that the skeleton contains a large reserve of alkaline mineral (hydroxyapatite), which is ultimately available to neutralise metabolic H(+) if acid-base balance is not maintained within narrow limits. Bone cells are extremely sensitive to the direct effects of pH: acidosis inhibits mineral deposition by osteoblasts but it activates osteoclasts to resorb bone and other mineralised tissues. These reciprocal responses act to maximise the availability of OH(-) ions from hydroxyapatite in solution, where they can buffer excess H(+). The mechanisms by which bone cells sense small pH changes are likely to be complex, involving ion channels and receptors in the cell membrane, as well as direct intracellular effects. The importance of oxygen tension in the skeleton has also long been known. Recent work shows that hypoxia blocks the growth and differentiation of osteoblasts (and thus bone formation), whilst strongly stimulating osteoclast formation (and thus bone resorption). Surprisingly, the resorptive function of osteoclasts is unimpaired in hypoxia. In vivo, tissue hypoxia is usually accompanied by acidosis due to reduced vascular perfusion and increased glycolytic metabolism. Thus, disruption of the blood supply can engender a multiple negative impact on bone via the direct actions of reduced pO(2) and pH on bone cells. These observations may contribute to our understanding of the bone disturbances that occur in numerous settings, including ageing, inflammation, fractures, tumours, anaemias, kidney disease, diabetes, respiratory disease and smoking.

Abstract
Extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation is a critical process in tumor cell invasion and requires membrane and released proteases focalized at membrane structures called invadopodia. While extracellular acidification is important in driving tumor invasion, the structure/function mechanisms underlying this regulation are still unknown. Invadopodia are similar in structure and function to osteoclast podosomes responsible for bone degradation, and extracellular acidification is central to podosome action, suggesting that it could also be for invadopodial function. Here, utilizing a novel system for in situ zymography in native matrices, we show that the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE1) and NHE1-generated extracellular acidification are localized at and necessary for invadopodial-dependent ECM degradation, thereby promoting tumor invasion. Stimulation with EGF increased both NHE1-dependent proton secretion and ECM degradation. Manipulation of the NHE1 expression by RNA interference or activity via either transport-deficient mutation or the specific inhibitor cariporide confirmed that NHE1 expression and activity are required for invadopodia-mediated ECM degradation. Taken together, our data show a concordance among NHE1 localization, the generation of a well-defined acidic extracellular pH in the nanospace surrounding invadopodia, and matrix-degrading activity at invadopodia of human malignant breast carcinoma cells, providing a structural basis for the role of NHE1 in invasion and identifying NHE1 as a strategic target for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Carbonated apatite ceramics, with a composition similar to that of bone mineral, are potentially interesting synthetic bone graft substitutes. In the present study, two porous carbonated apatite ceramics were developed, characterized and tested for their bone repair capacity and osteoinductive potential in a goat model. Although the two ceramics were prepared from a similar starting powder, their physico-chemical and structural characteristics differed as a consequence of different preparation methods. Both ceramics had an open and interconnected porous structure with a porosity of about 80%. The morphology of the surface of CA-A and CA-B at the submicron level differed significantly: CA-A consisted of irregular grains with a size of 5-20microm, with 1-10microm large micropores among the grains, whereas CA-B surface consisted of much smaller and regular shaped grains (0.05-0.5microm), with most micropores smaller than 1microm. The specific surface area of CA-B was about 10 times larger than that of CA-A due to its significantly smaller grain size. CA-A and CA-B ceramics contained 3 and 5 wt.% of B-type carbonated apatite, respectively. Although neither ceramic succeeded in completely bridging the 17mm iliac wing defect with new bone after 12weeks of implantation, CA-A showed significantly more bone formation in the pores of the implant than CA-B. The total area percentage of new bone in the total defect area was 12.7+/-1.81 and 5.51+/-1.37 (mean+/-SEM) for CA-A and CA-B, respectively. Intramuscular implantation of the ceramics led to ectopic bone formation by CA-A in all three implanted specimens, in contrast to CA-B, where no new bone was observed in any of the 11 animals. CA-A showed a more pronounced degradation than CA-B both in vitro and in vivo at both implantation sites, which was unexpected based on the physico-chemical and structural properties of the two ceramics. Both physico-chemical and structural properties of the ceramics could, dependently or independently, have affected their in vivo behaviour, emphasizing the importance to control individual parameters for successful bone repair.

Abstract
Efficient delivery of growth factors from carrier biomaterials depends critically on the release kinetics of the proteins that constitute the carrier. Immobilizing growth factors to calcium phosphate ceramics has been attempted by direct adsorption and usually resulted in a rapid and passive release of the superficially adherent proteins. The insufficient retention of growth factors limited their bioavailability and their efficacy in the treatment of bone regeneration. In this study, a coprecipitation technique of proteins and calcium phosphate was employed to modify the delivery of proteins from biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramics. To this end, tritium-labeled bovine serum albumin ([(3)H]BSA) was utilized as a model protein to analyze the coprecipitation efficacy and the release kinetics of the protein from the carrier material. Conventional adsorption of [(3)H]BSA resulted in a rapid and passive release of the protein from BCP ceramics, whereas the coprecipitation technique effectively prevented the burst release of [(3)H]BSA. Further analysis of the in vitro kinetics demonstrated a sustained, cell-mediated release of coprecipitated [(3)H]BSA from BCP ceramics induced by resorbing osteoclasts. The coprecipitation technique described herein, achieved a physiologic-like protein release, by incorporating [(3)H]BSA into its respective carriers, rendering it a promising tool in growth factor delivery for bone healing.

Consumption of krill protein concentrate prevents early renal injury and nephrocalcinosis in female Sprague-Dawley rats. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2010; 39:59-67.

Abstract
Female Sprague-Dawley rats provide an animal model for studying the role of nutrition in renal health due to their sensitivity to diet-induced alterations in kidney function. Nephrocalcinosis, a common renal abnormality found in rats, has been implicated in subsequent renal failure. Simple dietary manipulations, such as changing the source of dietary protein, may influence nephrocalcinosis. This study evaluates the consumption of krill protein concentrate (KPC), a novel and high-quality protein, on renal and bone health. Young female Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 10/group) were individually housed in metabolic cages and fed ad libitum diets consisting of 10% crude protein supplied as KPC or casein for 4 weeks. Diets were isocaloric, isonitrogenous, and matched for calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P). Urinary n-acetyl glucosaminidase (NAG) was measured and kidney histology performed to assess kidney damage. Biomarkers of kidney function were determined by calorimetric assays. Ca and P balance and bone concentrations were measured using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Femoral strength was determined by three-point bend testing. Rats fed KPC had lower (P = 0.005) urinary NAG levels and minimal microtubular Ca deposition compared to rats fed casein. There was a tendency (P < 0.06) for higher glomerular filtration rates and lower proteinuria, and higher (P = 0.03) urinary output in rats fed KPC compared to casein. There were no differences in Ca and P balance or bone measurements of total bone mineral content, Ca, P or strength between rats fed KPC and casein. Based on the study results, KPC prevented early renal injury leading to nephrocalcinosis and potential bone loss.

Abstract
There is growing evidence that consumption of a Western diet is a risk factor for osteoporosis through excess acid supply, while fruits and vegetables balance the excess acidity, mostly by providing K-rich bicarbonate-rich foods. Western diets consumed by adults generate approximately 50-100 mEq acid/d; therefore, healthy adults consuming such a diet are at risk of chronic low-grade metabolic acidosis, which worsens with age as a result of declining kidney function. Bone buffers the excess acid by delivering cations and it is considered that with time an overstimulation of this process will lead to the dissolution of the bone mineral content and hence to reduced bone mass. Intakes of K, Mg and fruit and vegetables have been associated with a higher alkaline status and a subsequent beneficial effect on bone health. In healthy male volunteers an acid-forming diet increases urinary Ca excretion by 74% and urinary C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (C-telopeptide) excretion by 19% when compared with an alkali (base-forming) diet. Cross-sectional studies have shown that there is a correlation between the nutritional acid load and bone health measured by bone ultrasound or dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Few studies have been undertaken in very elderly women (>75 years), whose osteoporosis risk is very pertinent. The EVAluation of Nutrients Intakes and Bone Ultra Sound Study has developed and validated (n 51) an FFQ for use in a very elderly Swiss population (mean age 80.4 (sd 2.99) years), which has shown intakes of key nutrients (energy, fat, carbohydrate, Ca, Mg, vitamin C, D and E) to be low in 401 subjects. A subsequent study to assess net endogenous acid production (NEAP) and bone ultrasound results in 256 women aged > or = 75 years has shown that lower NEAP (P=0.023) and higher K intake (P=0.033) are correlated with higher bone ultrasound results. High acid load may be an important additional risk factor that may be particularly relevant in very elderly patients with an already-high fracture risk. The latter study adds to knowledge by confirming a positive link between dietary alkalinity and bone health indices in the very elderly. In a further study to complement these findings it has also been shown in a group of thirty young women that in Ca sufficiency an acid Ca-rich water has no effect on bone resorption, while an alkaline bicarbonate-rich water leads to a decrease in both serum parathyroid hormone and serum C-telopeptide. Further investigations need to be undertaken to study whether these positive effects on bone loss are maintained over long-term treatment. Mineral-water consumption could be an easy and inexpensive way of helping to prevent osteoporosis and could be of major interest for long-term prevention of bone loss.

Abstract
Unlike pharmacological agents that are taken for proscribed periods of time, food and nutrient intakes have the possibility of affecting bone health over the entire lifespan. While deficiencies or excesses of individual nutrients have been shown to affect bone, it is likely that individual foods or dietary patterns have important effects related to skeletal health. While biochemical mechanisms exist to relate a deficiency of vitamin K to altered bone metabolism, clinical trials related to supplementation of this nutrient have been confusing. It is likely that these disparate results are related to the fact that interactions of nutrients have not been considered or the possibility that suboptimal nutrient status is a marker of poor nutritional status. Vitamin A excess has been postulated to be related to high fracture risk; however, it is likely that retinol is not the best marker for the proposed interaction. Altering whole food patterns, such as the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension diet, have demonstrated beneficial effects on bone metabolism. Individuals who select some vegetarian patterns may need to consider supplementation with nutrients such as calcium and protein. Future studies should center on whole food and dietary patterns and their relationship to bone metabolism and fracture risk.

Abstract
The Westernized diet is acidogenic due to the high content of sulfur-containing amino acids and relative deficiency of potassium organic anions. Chronic acid loads result in hypercalciuria and negative calcium balance often associated with loss of bone mineral. Alkali therapy tends to reverse the hypercalciuria but little is known regarding its effect on bone as assessed by bone histomorphometry. The present study utilized dynamic bone histomorphometry to evaluate the effects of alkali therapy on acid-induced changes in bone turnover. Serum and urine analyses and bone histomorphometry were assessed in adult rats after 2 months of either a low casein (LC) or high casein (HC) diet supplemented with either potassium chloride (KCl) or potassium citrate (KCit). Compared to animals on LC-KCl diet, HC-KCl diet delivered a substantial acid load as shown by significant increases in urinary sulfate, ammonium, and net acid excretion, and a lower urinary pH and citrate excretion without detectable changes in serum parameters. The acid load also resulted in hypercalciuria. Dynamic and static bone histomorphometry disclosed a significant reduction in cancellous bone volume and trabecular number associated with a 2.5-fold increase in eroded and a 3.5-fold increase in osteoclastic surfaces. There was also a near 2-fold increase in bone formation rate in rats on the HC-KCl diet. When animals on the HC diet were given KCit instead of KCl, all of the aforementioned changes in urine biochemistry and bone turnover were significantly attenuated or entirely prevented. These findings underscore the deleterious effects of high animal protein intake in promoting hypercalciuria and increasing bone turnover. Co-administration of potassium alkali attenuates or prevents these changes. In this animal model of high dietary animal protein intake, the major skeletal effect of alkali therapy is to reduce bone resorption, with little or no effect on bone formation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze the effect of differing diet on the acid load content on bone metabolism. DESIGN Multicentric, randomized, single-blind, parallel-group clinical trial. SETTING Outpatient clinics. PARTICIPANTS Two hundred thirty-eight elderly men and women aged 60 to 80 at high risk for cardiovascular disease were randomly assigned to three interventional groups: a recommended low-fat diet (control diet group), a Mediterranean diet supplemented with virgin olive oil, or a Mediterranean diet supplemented with mixed nuts. MEASUREMENTS Main outcomes were 12-month changes from baseline in bone formation and resorption markers and bone mass measured according to quantitative ultrasound scanning. RESULTS The baseline data on the anthropometric, bone densitometry, and biochemical variables did not differ between the three groups. Dietary potential renal acid load (PRAL) and daily net endogenous acid production (NEAP) at baseline did not differ between groups. After intervention, subjects allocated to the Mediterranean diet with mixed nuts had a significant increase of PRAL and NEAP. In comparison, subjects in the Mediterranean diet with nuts group had higher parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels (2.63, 95% confidence interval (CI)=-1.01-6.35, P=.02) and a nonsignificantly higher (0.31, 95% CI=-0.13-0.74, P=.14) urine free deoxypyridoxine:creatinine ratio, a marker of bone resorption, than the control group and the Mediterranean diet with virgin olive oil group. CONCLUSION A Mediterranean dietary pattern associated with a high dietary acid load derived from consumption of mixed nuts does not seem to have a much greater effect on bone metabolism biomarkers, with the exception of PTH levels, than a Mediterranean diet without mixed nuts or a control diet in elderly subjects.

Abstract
A randomised, parallel-design dietary intervention study was conducted in women (aged 45–75 years) with prehypertension or stage 1 hypertension. The aim was to compare the effects on bone turnover of a low-Na base-producing (LNAB) Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH)-type diet (including six serves lean red meat/week) with a high-carbohydrate low-fat (HCLF) diet with a higher acid load (both >800 mg dietary Ca/d). Fasting serum bone markers (baseline and week 14) and 24 h urinary electrolyte excretion (baseline, weeks 4, 8, 12 and 14) were measured. After the intervention period, the LNAB group (n 46) had a fall of 26 (sem 6) % (P < 0·0001) in urinary Na, an increase in K excretion (6·8 (sem 3·6) mmol/d; P = 0·07) and, compared with the HCLF group (n 49), a greater reduction in urinary Ca excretion by 0·7 (sem 0·3) mmol/d. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, intact parathyroid hormone and osteocalcin did not change, and both groups had a similar increase of 23 (sem 5) % (P < 0·0001) in C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen. The HCLF group had an 11 (sem 4) % increase (P = 0·003) in N-terminal propeptide, type I procollagen, which could indicate an increased rate of bone turnover. The fall in urinary Ca with the lower-Na lower-acid load diet is likely to have long-term beneficial effects on bone. As bone resorption was not different between the two dietary patterns with relatively high Ca intake, the effect on bone health of a dietary pattern with a lower acid load warrants further study on a lower Ca intake.

Abstract
Recently, vegetarian diets have experienced an increase in popularity. A vegetarian diet is associated with many health benefits because of its higher content of fiber, folic acid, vitamins C and E, potassium, magnesium, and many phytochemicals and a fat content that is more unsaturated. Compared with other vegetarian diets, vegan diets tend to contain less saturated fat and cholesterol and more dietary fiber. Vegans tend to be thinner, have lower serum cholesterol, and lower blood pressure, reducing their risk of heart disease. However, eliminating all animal products from the diet increases the risk of certain nutritional deficiencies. Micronutrients of special concern for the vegan include vitamins B-12 and D, calcium, and long-chain n-3 (omega-3) fatty acids. Unless vegans regularly consume foods that are fortified with these nutrients, appropriate supplements should be consumed. In some cases, iron and zinc status of vegans may also be of concern because of the limited bioavailability of these minerals.

Abstract
CONTEXT Protein is an essential component of muscle and bone. However, the acidic byproducts of protein metabolism may have a negative impact on the musculoskeletal system, particularly in older individuals with declining renal function. OBJECTIVE We sought to determine whether adding an alkaline salt, potassium bicarbonate (KHCO3), allows protein to have a more favorable net impact on intermediary indices of muscle and bone conservation than it does in the usual acidic environment. DESIGN We conducted a 41-d randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of KHCO3 or placebo with a 16-d phase-in and two successive 10-d metabolic diets containing low (0.5 g/kg) or high (1.5 g/kg) protein in random order with a 5-d washout between diets. SETTING The study was conducted in a metabolic research unit. PARTICIPANTS Nineteen healthy subjects ages 54-82 yr participated. INTERVENTION KHCO3 (up to 90 mmol/d) or placebo was administered for 41 d. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES We measured 24-h urinary nitrogen excretion, IGF-I, 24-h urinary calcium excretion, and fractional calcium absorption. RESULTS KHCO3 reduced the rise in urinary nitrogen excretion that accompanied an increase in protein intake (P = 0.015) and was associated with higher IGF-I levels on the low-protein diet (P = 0.027) with a similar trend on the high-protein diet (P = 0.050). KHCO3 was also associated with higher fractional calcium absorption on the low-protein diet (P = 0.041) with a similar trend on the high-protein diet (P = 0.064). CONCLUSIONS In older adults, KHCO3 attenuates the protein-induced rise in urinary nitrogen excretion, and this may be mediated by IGF-I. KHCO3 may also promote calcium absorption independent of the dietary protein content.

Abstract
CONTEXT Bicarbonate has been implicated in bone health in older subjects on acid-producing diets in short-term studies. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the effects of potassium bicarbonate and its components on changes in bone resorption and calcium excretion over 3 months in older men and women. DESIGN, PARTICIPANTS, AND INTERVENTION In this double-blind, controlled trial, 171 men and women age 50 and older were randomized to receive placebo or 67.5 mmol/d of potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate, or potassium chloride for 3 months. All subjects received calcium (600 mg of calcium as triphosphate) and 525 IU of vitamin D(3) daily. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Twenty-four-hour urinary N-telopeptide and calcium were measured at entry and after 3 months. Changes in these measures were compared across treatment groups in the 162 participants included in the analyses. RESULTS Bicarbonate affected the study outcomes, whereas potassium did not; the two bicarbonate groups and the two no bicarbonate groups were therefore combined. Subjects taking bicarbonate had significant reductions in urinary N-telopeptide and calcium excretion, when compared with subjects taking no bicarbonate (both before and after adjustment for baseline laboratory value, sex, and changes in urinary sodium and potassium; P = 0.001 for both, adjusted). Potassium supplementation did not significantly affect N-telopeptide or calcium excretion. CONCLUSIONS Bicarbonate, but not potassium, had a favorable effect on bone resorption and calcium excretion. This suggests that increasing the alkali content of the diet may attenuate bone loss in healthy older adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dietary acid charge enhances bone loss. Bicarbonate or alkali diet decreases bone resorption in humans. We compared the effect of an alkaline mineral water, rich in bicarbonate, with that of an acid one, rich in calcium only, on bone markers, in young women with a normal calcium intake. METHODS This study compared water A (per litre: 520 mg Ca, 291 mg HCO(3)(-), 1160 mg SO(4)(-), Potential Renal Acid load (PRAL) +9.2 mEq) with water B (per litre: 547 mg Ca, 2172 mg HCO(3)(-), 9 mg SO(4)(-), PRAL -11.2 mEq). 30 female dieticians aged 26.3 yrs (SD 7.3) were randomized into two groups, followed an identical weighed, balanced diet (965 mg Ca) and drank 1.5 l/d of the assigned water. Changes in blood and urine electrolytes, C-telopeptides (CTX), urinary pH and bicarbonate, and serum PTH were measured after 2 and 4 weeks. RESULTS The two groups were not different at baseline, and showed a similar increase in urinary calcium excretion. Urinary pH and bicarbonate excretion increased with water B, but not with water A. PTH (p=0.022) and S-CTX (p=0.023) decreased with water B but not with water A. CONCLUSION In calcium sufficiency, the acid calcium-rich water had no effect on bone resorption, while the alkaline water rich in bicarbonate led to a significant decrease of PTH and of S-CTX.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is a process of continuous resorption and formation/mineralization carried out by osteoclasts and osteoblasts, which, along with osteocytes, comprise the bone multicellular unit (BMU). A key component of the BMU is the bone remodeling compartment (BRC), isolated from the marrow by a canopy of osteoblast-like lining cells. Although much progress has been made regarding the cytokine-dependent and hormonal regulation of bone remodeling, less attention has been placed on the role of extracellular pH (pH(e)). Osteoclastic bone resorption occurs at acidic pH(e). Furthermore, osteoclasts can be regarded as epithelial-like cells, due to their polarized structure and ability to form a seal against bone, isolating the lacunar space. The major ecto-phosphatases of osteoclasts and osteoblasts, acid and alkaline phosphatases, both have ATPase activity with pH optima several units different from neutrality. Furthermore, osteoclasts and osteoblasts express plasma membrane purinergic P2 receptors that, upon activation by ATP, accelerate bone osteoclast resorption and impair osteoblast mineralization. We hypothesize that these ecto-phosphatases help regulate [ATP](e) and localized pH(e) at the sites of bone resorption and mineralization by pH-dependent ATP hydrolysis coupled with P2Y-dependent regulation of osteoclast and osteoblast function. Furthermore, osteoclast cellular HCO3(-), formed as a product of lacunar V-ATPase H(+) secretion, is secreted into the BRC, which could elevate BRC pH(e), in turn affecting osteoblast function. We will review the existing data addressing regulation of BRC pH(e), present a hypothesis regarding its regulation, and discuss the hypothesis in the context of the function of proteins that regulate pH(e).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The acid-ash diet hypothesis of osteoporosis suggests that acid from the modern diet causes a demineralization of the skeleton, and mobilized bone calcium is excreted. A systematic approach has not been used to summarize the findings of the numerous studies about the hypothesis. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this meta-analysis was to estimate the quantity of net acid excretion and calciuria associated with the modern diet, to assess the association between acid excretion and calcium excretion, and to assess the influence of urine preservatives on calcium measurement. DESIGN We systematically searched for trials of the acid-ash hypothesis and conducted a meta-analysis. RESULTS Twenty-five of 105 studies met the inclusion criteria. The estimated quantity of net acid excretion from the weighted average of the control diets from 11 studies was 47 mEq/d. The increase in urinary calcium with a change in renal net acid excretion depended on whether the urine was acidic or alkaline (P < 0.001). A significant linear relation was observed between net acid excretion and calcium excretion for both acidic and alkaline urine (P < 0.001). The estimated change in urine calcium associated with a change of 47 mEq of net acid excretion in acidic urine was 1.6 mmol/d (66 mg/d) of calcium. CONCLUSION Evidence suggests a linear association between changes in calcium excretion in response to experimental changes in net acid excretion. However, this finding is not evidence that the source of the excreted calcium is bone or that this calciuria contributes to the development of osteoporosis.
