Miller A, Jeyapalina S, Agarwal JP, Beck JP. Association between blood markers and the progression of osseointegration in percutaneous prostheses patients-A pilot study. J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2024; 112:e35398. [PMID: 38456331 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.35398] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
Patients implanted with osseointegrated (OI) prosthetic systems have reported vastly improved upper and lower extremity prosthetic function compared with their previous experience with socket-suspension systems. However, OI systems have been associated with superficial and deep-bone infections and implant loosening due, in part, to a failure of the osseointegration process. Although monitoring the osseointegration using circulating biomarkers has clinical relevance for understanding the progression of osseointegration with these devices, it has yet to be established. Ten patients were enrolled in this study. Blood samples were collected at pre-selected times, starting before implantation surgery, and continuing to 12 months after the second surgery. Bone formation markers, bone resorption markers, and circulating amino acids were measured from blood samples. A linear mixed model was generated for each marker, incorporating patient ID and age with the normalized marker value as the response variable. Post hoc comparisons were made between 1 week before Stage 1 Surgery and all subsequent time points for each marker, followed by multiple testing corrections. Serial radiographic imaging of the residual limb containing the implant was obtained during follow-up, and the cortical index (CI) was calculated for the bone at the porous region of the device. Two markers of bone formation, specifically bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (Bone-ALP) and amino-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP), exhibited significant increases when compared with the baseline levels of unloaded residual bone prior to the initial surgery, and they subsequently returned to their baseline levels by the 12-month mark. Patients who experienced clinically robust osseointegration experienced increased cortical bone thickness at the porous coated region of the device. A medium correlation was observed between Bone-ALP and the porous CI values up to PoS2-M1 (p = .056), while no correlation was observed for PINP. An increase in bone formation markers and the lack of change observed in bone resorption markers likely reflect increased cortical bone formation induced by the end-loading design of the Utah OI device used in this study. A more extensive study is required to validate the correlation observed between Bone-ALP and porous CI values.

Abstract
AIM To determine the association of salivary IGF-1 and vitamin D Binding Protein with cervical vertebral maturation index (CVMI) across the pubertal stages and to determine the diagnostic accuracy and optimal threshold of these biomarkers for estimation of pubertal growth. DESIGN Cross-sectional observational study. SETTING Material and methods. All patients in the age group of 8-23 years from the Outpatient Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial orthopaedics, between the period of July 2020 to December 2020 meeting the eligibility criteria were included. Lateral cephalograms obtained from the patients were divided into pre pubertal, pubertal & post pubertal groups based on CVMI by Baccetti et al. Unstimulated whole saliva was collected by a swab-based method & analyzed with ELISA. RESULTS Ninety-four participants were divided in three stages: prebubertal (30), pubertal (33), post pubertal (31). A significant difference was observed in the salivary IGF-1 & DBP across the three stages. Post-hoc test revealed significantly higher mean salivary IGF-1 & DBP in pubertal group than in pre & post-pubertal group. Receiver operator characteristic curve revealed excellent diagnostic accuracy for salivary IGF-1with areas under the curve (AUC) of 0.962, satisfactory for vitamin DBP with AUC of 0.831 and poor diagnostic accuracy for age with AUC of 0.536. Youden index revealed the optimal threshold to be 3.96ng/ml and 124.13pg/ml for salivary IGF-1 and vitamin DBP respectively. CONCLUSION The levels of Salivary IGF-1 and Vitamin DBP increased during C3 and C4 stages. Compared to vitamin DBP diagnostic accuracy of salivary IGF-1 was excellent and an optimal threshold of 3.96ng/ml can be utilized to distinguish pubertal & non-pubertal participants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the reliability of different salivary biomarkers as skeletal maturity indicators when compared with other methods of skeletal maturity assessment. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted on three electronic databases: PUBMED, Google scholar and Cochrane library for the articles published from 2000 to July 2021. Assessment of skeletal age on the basis of levels of different salivary biomarkers at different pubertal stages was considered as the primary outcome. Electronic search, data collection and risk of bias assessment were performed by two authors with conflict resolution by the third author. RESULTS Total 158 articles were retrieved after screening of titles, abstracts and full texts of all articles, of which 15 articles were selected for qualitative synthesis. All these studies were cross-sectional in design. These studies compared the levels of different salivary biomarkers as Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), Insulin-like Growth Factor - I (IGF-I), Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP-3), Cortisol, Indian Hedgehog (IHH) protein and Dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS) with other methods of skeletal age estimation. Out of these six biomarkers salivary IGF-1 is a reliable indicator for skeletal maturity assessment. CONCLUSION The current evidence suggests that salivary biomarkers can be used as an adjunct for growth prediction during orthodontic treatment planning along with other methods of skeletal maturation assessment. Still there is need for further research with longitudinal studies in this field.

Abstract
This study assesses the effect of LncRNA MALAT1 on osteoblast differentiation in OP rats. The BMSC were transfected with LncRNA MALAT1. The OP rats’ model was established and then assigned into NC set, OP set, BMSC set, BMSCs/LncRNA-NC set and BMSCs/LncRNA MALAT1 set followed
by analysis of LncRNA MALAT1, microRNA-34 and cSATB2 expression by RT-PCR, and Bax, Caspase-3 and ALP level in exosome by Western Blot assy. The protein expression of Bax and Caspase-3 in OP set was significantly increased compared with NC set but reduced in BMSCs/LncRNA MALAT1 set without
significant differences between BMSC set and BMSC/NC set. There was orderly array of collagenous fiber in lamellar bone of NC set. The quantity of bone lacuna was moderate with orderly array of bone trabecula. There was disorderly array of collagenous fiber in lamellar bone of model set. There
were a large number of distribution of osteoblast in the breakdown area with the dissolution of periosteum. The protein level of Bax and Caspase-3 was reduced by LncRNA MALAT1 from BMSC and the level of ALP, microRNA-34 and cSATB2 in the differentiation of osteoblast was increased, thereby
promoting the differentiation of osteoblast.

Abstract
As a ubiquitous environmental estrogen-disrupting chemical, triclosan (TCS) can induce severe osteotoxicity; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain uncertain. Herein, we evaluated the toxic effects of TCS on the development of cartilage and osteogenesis in 5-dpf zebrafish. Under TCS exposure from 62.5 to 250 μg/L, several osteodevelopmental malformations were observed, such as defect of craniofacial cartilage, pharyngeal arch cartilage dysplasia, and impairments on skeletal mineralization. Further, the morphology of mature chondrocytes became swollen and deformed, their number decreased, nucleus displacement occurred, and most immature chondrocytes were crowded at both ends of ceratobranchial. SEM observation of larval caudal fin revealed that, the layer of collagen fibers and the mineralized calcium nodules were significantly decreased, with the collagen fibers becoming shorter upon TCS exposure. The activity of bone-derived alkaline phosphatase significantly reduced, and marker functional genes related to cartilage and osteoblast development were abnormally expressed. RNA-seq and bioinformatics analysis indicated, that changes in marker genes intimately related to the negative regulation of miR-30c-5p overexpression targeted by TCS, and the up-regulation of miR-30c induced bone developmental defects by inhibiting the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway. These findings were confirmed by artificially intervening the expression of miR-30c and using BMP pathway agonists in vivo. In sum, TCS induced osteototoxicity by targeting miR-30c up-regulation and interfering in the BMP signaling pathway. These findings enhance mechanistic understanding of TCS-induced spontaneous bone disorders and bone metastatic diseases. Further research is necessary to monitor chronic TCS-exposure levels in surrounding environments and develop relevant safety precautions based on TCS environmental risk.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the relevant scientific literature to determine the association between different serum biomarker levels and radiographic skeletal maturity indicators. Data Search, Screening and Eligibility: A literature search was carried out on PubMed, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, Science Direct and Opengrey.eu up to November 2021 and 7466 records were retrieved via the electronic search. Study selection, data extraction and subsequent risk of bias assessment (RoB) was carried out independently by two authors. In case of any discrepancy, a third author was consulted. Results: After the exclusion of duplicates and the application of inclusion exclusion criteria, 19 studies (published in 25 articles) were included in the systematic review out of which 17 had a cross-sectional and two had a cohort study design. For the meta-analysis, based on the homogeneity, five cross-sectional studies measuring serum IGF-1 levels were incorporated. The meta-analysis revealed that the serum IGF-1 levels peak at the CS4 stage (401.77 ng/mL [333.50 – 470.05]) in the pooled group. However, in the subgroup analysis, it was found that the serum IGF-1 levels peak at CS3 in women (422.82 ng/mL [377.46–468.18]) and CS4 in men (487.04 ng/mL [391.83–582.25]). Conclusion: Among the various biomarkers evaluated, serum IGF-1 was the most associated with different stages of radiographic skeletal maturity indicators with its levels peaking at CS3 in women and CS4 in men.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone turnover markers (BTMs) have been studied for application in clinical medicine. However, BTMs in children are challenging, and few studies explore these BTMs in children. The application of BTMs is complicated mainly due to pre-analytical factors, variable reference intervals of age- and sex-related BTMs for adolescents and children in different regions and laboratories. Therefore, laboratory testing of BTMs is critical for understanding pediatric bone development and metabolism, which provides additional information about bone development and diseases. METHODS Literature search was conducted using the MeSH term "child" combined with the terms that bone turnover markers such as "osteocalcin," "Procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide," "procollagen type I C-terminal propeptide," "osteocalcin," "N-terminal cross-linked telopeptide," and "C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide," Several databases including Web of Science, Google Scholar, and PubMed were searched to obtain the relevant studies. RESULTS BTMs represent the combined effects of skeletal development, growth, and remodeling in children, which can be used in clinical pediatrics to assist in the diagnosis and prognosis of bone metabolic disorders. CONCLUSION BTMs are clearly helpful for diagnosis and monitoring of bone growth and development as well as bone metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Background Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) is the most prevalent metabolic bone disease in women. Yishen Zhuanggu (YSZG) decoction and Caltrate D600 reportedly affects bone formation. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and mechanism of YSZG decoction combined with Caltrate D600 in PMO treatment. Methods Ovariectomy-induced PMO rat model was treated with YSZG or/and Caltrate D600 for 12 weeks. Femur bone mineral density (BMD), osteoporosis-related protein expression, and serum parameters were measured. Pathological features of femur bone tissues were observed using hematoxylin and eosin staining. Serum levels of oxidative stress parameters were measured using corresponding commercial kits. The mRNA and protein expression of FoxO3a, Wnt, and β-catenin was detected using qRT-PCR and western blotting. Results The BMD and ultimate load of PMO rats were increased after treatment with YSZG. YSZG treatment promoted the bone trabeculae formation of PMO rats. YSZG treatment also induced bone differentiation and suppress oxidative stress in PMO rats, evidenced by the increased BALP, Runx2, OPG, SOD, and CAT levels, as well as the decreased TRACP 5b, RANKL, ROS, and MDA levels. Additionally, YSZG treatment downregulated the FoxO3a expression and upregulated the levels of Wnt and β-catenin in PMO rats. Caltrate D600 addition showed an auxiliary effect for YSZG. Conclusion YSZG decoction exerts the antiosteoporotic effect on PMO by restraining the FoxO3a expression and activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, which has an impressive synergistic effect with Caltrate D600.

The Effects of Tetrapeptides Designed to Fit the Androgen Binding Site of ZIP9 on Myogenic and Osteogenic Cells. BIOLOGY 2021; 11:biology11010019.

Abstract
Simple Summary Pro-androgenic substances such as testosterone are often used to treat muscle- or bone-related disorders. Their interactions with the classical androgen receptor, however, can trigger a number of undesirable effects. It would therefore be of great benefit if the positive androgenic effects could be obtained by circumventing the classical androgen receptor. ZIP9 is a recently identified membrane-bound androgen receptor of physiological significance. Using in silico methods, we identified and verified the extracellular localization of its androgen binding site and designed small peptides that fit in it that do not interact with the AR. All peptides were found to be pro-androgenic; they stimulate mineralization in osteoblastic cells and myogenesis in myoblasts. Thus, these peptides might serve as testosterone surrogates in the treatment of osteogenic or myogenic disorders. Abstract ZIP9 is a recently identified membrane-bound androgen receptor of physiological significance that may mediate certain physiological responses to androgens. Using in silico methods, six tetrapeptides with the best docking properties at the testosterone binding site of ZIP9 were synthesized and further investigated. All tetrapeptides displaced T-BSA-FITC, a membrane-impermeable testosterone analog, from the surface of mouse myogenic L6 cells that express ZIP9 but not the classical androgen receptor (AR). Silencing the expression of ZIP9 with siRNA prevented this labeling. All tetrapeptides were found to be pro-androgenic; in L6 cells they stimulated the expression of myogenin, triggered activation of focal adhesion kinase, and prompted the fusion of L6 myocytes to syncytial myotubes. In human osteoblastic SAOS-2 cells that express AR and ZIP9, they reduced the expression of alkaline phosphatase and stimulated mineralization. These latter effects were prevented by silencing ZIP9 expression, indicating that the osteoblast/osteocyte conversion is exclusively mediated through ZIP9. Our results demonstrate that the synthetic tetrapeptides, by acting as ZIP9-specific androgens, have the potential to replace testosterone or testosterone analogs in the treatment of bone- or muscle-related disorders by circumventing the undesirable effects mediated through the classical AR.

Anabolic Bone Stimulus Requires a Pre-Exercise Meal and 45-Minute Walking Impulse of Suprathreshold Speed-Enhanced Momentum to Prevent or Mitigate Postmenopausal Osteoporosis within Circadian Constraints. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13113727. [PMID: 34835982 PMCID: PMC8620686 DOI: 10.3390/nu13113727] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2021] [Revised: 10/05/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteoporosis currently afflicts 8 million postmenopausal women in the US, increasing the risk of bone fractures and morbidity, and reducing overall quality of life. We sought to define moderate exercise protocols that can prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis. Our previous findings singled out higher walking speed and pre-exercise meals as necessary for suppression of bone resorption and increasing of markers of bone formation. Since both studies were amenable to alternate biomechanical, nutritional, and circadian interpretations, we sought to determine the relative importance of higher speed, momentum, speed-enhanced load, duration of impulse, and meal timing on osteogenic response. We hypothesized that: (1) 20 min of exercise one hour after eating is sufficient to suppress bone resorption as much as a 40-min impulse and that two 20 min exercise bouts separated by 7 h would double the anabolic effect; (2) early morning exercise performed after eating will be as effective as mid-day exercise for anabolic outcome; and (3) the 08:00 h 40-min. exercise uphill would be as osteogenic as the 40-min exercise downhill. Healthy postmenopausal women, 8 each, were assigned to a no-exercise condition (SED) or to 40- or 20-min exercise bouts, spaced 7 h apart, for walking uphill (40 Up and 20 Up) or downhill (40 Down and 20 Down) to produce differences in biomechanical variables. Exercise was initiated at 08:00 h one hour after eating in 40-min groups, and also 7 h later, two hours after the midday meal, in 20-min groups. Measurements were made of CICP (c-terminal peptide of type I collagen), osteocalcin (OC), and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP), markers of bone formation, and of the bone resorptive marker CTX (c-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen). The osteogenic ratios CICP/CTX, OC/CTX, and BALP/CTX were calculated. Only the 40-min downhill exercise of suprathreshold speed-enhanced momentum, increased the three osteogenic ratios, demonstrating the necessity of a 40-min, and inadequacy of a 20-min, exercise impulse. The failure of anabolic outcome in 40-min uphill exercise was attributed to a sustained elevation of PTH concentration, as its high morning elevation enhances the CTX circadian rhythm. We conclude that postmenopausal osteoporosis can be prevented or mitigated in sedentary women by 45 min of morning exercise of suprathreshold speed-enhanced increased momentum performed shortly after a meal while walking on level ground, or by 40-min downhill, but not 40-min uphill, exercise to avoid circadian PTH oversecretion. The principal stimulus for the anabolic effect is exercise, but the prerequisite for a pre-exercise meal demonstrates the requirement for nutrient facilitation.

Can IGF-1 serve as a reliable skeletal maturity indicator? A meta-analysis. J Orofac Orthop 2021; 83:124-140. [PMID: 34596696 DOI: 10.1007/s00056-021-00357-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2020] [Accepted: 07/20/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Many clinical studies have evaluated the role of biochemical mediators like insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in assessment of skeletal maturity. But still the reliability of IGF‑1 as an indicator of skeletal maturity remains controversial. OBJECTIVE To assess the correlation between IGF‑1 and different radiographic skeletal maturity indicators. SEARCH METHODS Seven electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, Medline, Cochrane CENTRAL, Web of Science and SciELO) were searched until January 2020 without any restriction based on language or date of publication. SELECTION CRITERIA The study design included cross-sectional and longitudinal studies comparing IGF‑1 and other skeletal maturity indicators (SMIs). DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Data extraction was done by two reviewers independently; 15 studies were eligible to be included in the quantitative synthesis. RESULTS There was significant positive correlation between IGF‑1 and different SMIs until puberty which was 0.95 (confidence interval [CI] = 0.89, 1.02) for males and 0.87 (CI = 0.77, 0.97) for females. A negative correlation between IGF‑1 and different SMIs was found after puberty which was -0.86 (CI = -0.97, -0.75) for males and -0.89 (CI = -0.98, -0.81) for females. The type of SMI compared and type of IGF‑1 sample used accounted for the high heterogeneity found across the studies. Chronological age and number of months passed after puberty showed moderate negative correlation with mean IGF‑1 levels which were -0.57 (CI = -0.67, -0.47) and -0.54 (CI = -0.66, -0.42). Annual increments in mandibular length showed significant positive correlation of 0.69 (CI = 0.48, 0.90). CONCLUSIONS IGF‑1 would serve as a promising alternative to conventional radiographic skeletal maturity indicators and in predicting the amount of residual mandibular growth.

Gv V, Tripathi T. Non-invasive methods for the assessment of biomarkers and their correlation with radiographic maturity indicators - a scoping review. Prog Orthod 2021; 22:26. [PMID: 34486079 PMCID: PMC8419155 DOI: 10.1186/s40510-021-00372-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Detection of skeletal maturity is vital in orthodontic treatment timing and planning. Traditional methods include hand-wrist radiography and cervical vertebral maturation index (CVMI). Though the radiographic methods are well established and routinely used to assess skeletal maturation, they carry the drawback of subjective perception and low reproducibility. With evolving concepts, skeletal maturation has been assessed quantitatively through biomarkers obtained from saliva, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), and urine. The scoping review aims to explore the various biomarkers assessed through non-invasive methods and their correlation with radiographic skeletal maturity. METHODOLOGY The literature search was carried out on MEDLINE via Pubmed, Cochrane Library (Cochrane database of systematic reviews), Cochrane central register of controlled trials (CENTRAL), Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, ScienceDirect, and Opengrey.eu for articles up to and including November 2020. Pertinent articles were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results were tabulated based on the type of sample collected, the biomarker assessed, method of sample collection, and the radiographic method used. RESULTS The literature search resulted in 12 relevant articles. Among all the studies, 10 studies showed that the concentration of biomarkers increases during the pubertal growth peak. On the contrary, 2 articles showed no significant difference between the levels of biomarkers and pubertal growth peak. CONCLUSION It can be concluded that the level of biomarkers increases during the pubertal growth spurt and can provide a quantitative way of assessing skeletal maturity.

Zhang L, Piao X. Use of 25-hydroxyvitamin D 3 in diets for sows: A review. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2021; 7:728-736. [PMID: 34466677 PMCID: PMC8379139 DOI: 10.1016/j.aninu.2020.11.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2020] [Revised: 09/08/2020] [Accepted: 11/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Dietary supplementation with 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OHD3), as an alternative source of vitamin D, is becoming increasingly popular due to its commercialization and more efficient absorbability. The addition of 25OHD3 rather than its precursor vitamin D3 can circumvent the 25-hydroxylation reaction in the liver, indicating that supplementation of 25OHD3 can rapidly improve the circulating vitamin D status of animals. Emerging experiments have reported that maternal 25OHD3 supplementation could increase sow performances and birth outcomes and promote circulating vitamin D status of sows and their offspring. Increased milk fat content was observed in many experiments; however, others demonstrated that adding 25OHD3 to lactating sow diets increased the contents of milk protein and lactose. Although an inconsistency between the results of different experiments exists, these studies suggested that maternal 25OHD3 supplementation could alter milk composition via its effects on the mammary gland. Previous studies have demonstrated that adding 25OHD3 to sow diets could improve the mRNA expressions of insulin-induced gene 1 (INSIG1) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP1) in the mammary gland cells from milk and increase the mRNA expressions of acetyl-CoA carboxylase α (ACCα) and fatty acid synthase (FAS) in the mammary gland tissue. Maternal 25OHD3 supplementation promotes skeletal muscle development of piglets before and after parturition, and improves bone properties including bone density and bone breaking force in lactating sows and their piglets. Interestingly, 25OHD3 supplementation in sow diets could improve neonatal bone development via regulation of milk fatty acid composition related to bone metabolism and mineralization. In this review, we also discuss the effects of adding 25OHD3 to sow diets on the gut bacterial metabolites of suckling piglets, and propose that butyrate production may be associated with bone health. Therefore, to better understand the nutritional functions of maternal 25OHD3 supplementation, this paper reviews advances in the studies of 25OHD3 for sow nutrition and provides references for practical application.

Endocr Metab Immune Disord Drug Targets 2021; 21:932-942. [PMID: 33109070 DOI: 10.2174/1871530320999200817114817] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2020] [Revised: 06/21/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Objective:
The objective of this meta-analysis was to compare the efficacy and safety of
teriparatide versus salmon calcitonin for the treatment of osteoporosis in Asian patients and to investigate
whether the results of global studies could be applicable to Asian patients.
Methods:
PubMed, OVID, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) and EMBASE
up to December 2018 were searched. Eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared teriparatide
versus salmon calcitonin in Asian osteoporosis population were included. Preferred Reporting
Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were used for data synthesis,
and Cochrane Collaboration software Review Manager 5.3 was used to analyze the pooled data.
Results:
Three RCTs involving 529 patients were included (mean age 68.7 yr; 93.4% females; mean
follow-up 6 months); outcome measures included bone mineral density (BMD) of the femoral neck,
total hip and lumbar spine; bone markers and adverse events. We found that the period of 6-months of
teriparatide treatment was helpful for the improvement of the BMD of lumbar vertebra, however, the
improvement of BMD was not significant in the femoral neck and total hip joint. There was a positive
correlation between bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BSAP) and osteocalcin (OCN) and the response
of Asian patients to subcutaneous injection of 20 micrograms per day of teriparatide. The proportion
of the occurrence of adverse effects was more obvious in the teriparatide group compared with
salmon calcitonin, but there was no significant difference.
Conclusion:
Results suggested that the use of teriparatide could improve the lumbar BMD by shortterm
(six months) application in Asian osteoporosis patients, which is beneficial to the patients who
cannot tolerate adverse events of long-term treatment. The BSAP and OCN bone markers could be
useful to monitor the responses of Asian osteoporosis patients to teriparatide treatment. Finally, both of
teriparatide and salmon calcitonin were well tolerated by Asian patients.

Abstract
This study aimed to compare the postoperative effects of total parathyroidectomy plus forearm transplantation and radioguided parathyroidectomy on bone metabolism and bone mineral density (BMD). From June 2013 to October 2017, 67 patients with renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) received surgical treatment. The control group included 30 cases of classical total parathyroidectomy plus forearm transplantation for SHPT. In the experimental group, 37 patients underwent 99mTc-MIBI-guided parathyroidectomy. Demographics, parathyroid hormone (PTH) level, blood calcium level, and pathological results were compared between the 2 groups. The curative effect of parathyroidectomy and its effect on BMD were also compared. The BMDs in the L1-L4 segments and femoral neck in both groups were significantly improved after operation (all P < .05). The T scores of the L1-L4 segments and femoral neck in both groups were significantly improved after operation (all P < .05). The improvement in the T score of the L4 in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < .05). No significant differences in the improvement in the L1-L3 segments and femoral neck were found between the 2 groups. Both traditional total parathyroidectomy plus forearm transplantation and 99mTc-MIBI-guided parathyroidectomy can improve PTH level, blood calcium level, phosphorus level, bone metabolism, and BMD to varying degrees in patients with SHPT. Compared with the traditional surgery, 99mTc-MIBI-guided parathyroidectomy can improve blood calcium and phosphorus metabolisms, reduce PTH level, and improve the T scores of L4 to a greater extent.

Longitudinal evaluation of the association between Insulin-like growth factor-1, Bone specific alkaline phosphatase and changes in mandibular length. Sci Rep 2019; 9:11582. [PMID: 31399639 PMCID: PMC6689053 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-48067-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2018] [Accepted: 05/29/2019] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the current longitudinal study was to assess the levels of serum Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP) and serum Insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in different cervical vertebral maturation index (CVMI) stages and observe their association with the mandibular growth. Blood samples and lateral cephalograms of 63 subjects (age group of 11–17 years) were obtained at two time points, 12 months apart. On the basis of CVMI, all subjects were divided into six groups based on whether the subjects remained in same CVMI stage or transitioned to the next CVMI stage. Annual mandibular length was related with serum BALP and serum IGF-1 levels estimated using ELISA. Serum IGF-1 and BALP attained highest levels at CVMI stage 3 with peak BALP levels observed earlier than IGF-1. Although a positive correlation was determined between IGF-1 and BALP but BALP followed skeletal growth pattern more precisely. Overall IGF-1 and BALP were negatively correlated with mandibular length with notable growth in CVMI groups 3–3 (P < 0.01), 3-4 (P < 0.01), 4-4 (P < 0.001) and 5-5 (P < 0.001). In conclusion, BALP is a potential biomarker for skeletal growth assessment. However, the mandibular growth pattern was independent of changes in IGF-1 and BALP.
