Abstract
Intense changes in mineral and bone metabolism are frequent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and represent an important cause of morbidity and reduced quality of life. These disorders have conventionally been defined as renal osteodystrophy and classified based on bone biopsy, but due to a lack of bone biopsy data and validated radiological methods to evaluate bone morphology in children, it has been challenging to effectively assess renal osteodystrophy in pediatric CKD; the consequence has been the suboptimal management of bone disorders in children. CKD-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a new expression used to describe a systemic disorder of mineral and bone metabolism as a result of CKD. CKD-MBD is a triad of biochemical imbalances in calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone, and vitamin D; bone deformities and soft tissue calcification. This literature review aims to explore the pathogenesis, diagnostic approach, and treatment of CKD-MBD in children and the effects of renal osteodystrophy on growing skeleton, with a specific focus on the biological basis of this peculiar condition.

Abstract
Bone turnover markers (BTMs) are released during the bone remodelling cycle and are measurable in blood or urine, reflecting bone remodelling rate. They have been useful in elucidating the pharmacodynamics and effectiveness of osteoporosis medication in clinical trials and are increasingly used in routine clinical management of osteoporosis, especially for monitoring therapy, in addition to their use in other metabolic bone disease such as Paget's disease of bone and osteomalacia. Serum β isomerised C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen and pro-collagen I N-terminal propeptide have been designated as reference BTMs for use in osteoporosis. In addition, bone-specific isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase (B-ALP) secreted by osteoblasts and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP-5b) secreted by osteoclasts are also found to be specific markers of bone formation and resorption, respectively. The concentrations of the latter enzymes in blood measured by immunoassay provide reliable measures of bone turnover even in the presence of renal failure. B-ALP is recommended for use in the assessment of renal bone disease of chronic kidney disease, and TRACP-5b shows promise as a marker of bone resorption in that condition. BTMs in blood do not suffer from biological variation to the same extent as the older BTMs that were measured in urine. Appropriate patient preparation and sample handling are important in obtaining accurate measures of BTMs for clinical use. Reference change values and treatment targets have been determined for the reference BTMs for their use in monitoring osteoporosis treatment. Further ongoing studies will enhance their clinical applications.

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

Effects of Phosphate Binders on Bone Biomarkers and Bone Density in Hemodialysis Patients. Nephrology (Carlton) 2022; 27:441-449. [PMID: 35044029 DOI: 10.1111/nep.14022] [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: 11/12/2021] [Revised: 01/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUNDS The incidences of osteoporosis, fracture, and vascular calcification increase concordantly with the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). CKD-mineral bone disease (CKD-MBD) induced by hyperphosphatemia is a major pathophysiologic mechanism. The effects of phosphate binders on bone turnover biomarkers and bone mineral density (BMD) in hemodialysis patients are still inconclusive. Our aim is to demonstrate the effects of these phosphate binders on different aspects of CKD-MBD. METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort of 65 hemodialysis patients to investigate the effect of 12-month monotherapy of phosphate binders composing calcium-based phosphate binders (CPB) or non-calcium-based phosphate binders (NCPB), including sevelamer and lanthanum, on bone turnover biomarkers and BMD changes. The performance of bone turnover biomarkers to predict low BMD was attentively determined. RESULTS When compared with CPB, NCPB use was associated with higher levels of bone turnover biomarkers. NCPB was also associated with lower BMD at lumbar and distal radius. Total procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAP5b) provided the best performance for diagnosing low BMD in hemodialysis patients. CONCLUSIONS Switching from CPB to NCPB might increase bone biomarkers and prevent the development of adynamic bone disease. On the contrary, NCPB should be cautiously used in hemodialysis patients who already had low BMD. P1NP, BALP, and TRAP5b could be used to guide the appropriate management, including anti-resorptive and anabolic medications, and predict low BMD in hemodialysis patients treated with phosphate binders.

Could Bone Biomarkers Predict Bone Turnover after Kidney Transplantation?—A Proof-of-Concept Study. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11020457. [PMID: 35054152 PMCID: PMC8780588 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11020457] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2021] [Revised: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim: Bone disease after kidney transplant (KT) results from multiple factors, including previous bone and mineral metabolism disturbances and effects of transplant-related medications. New biomolecules have been recently associated with the development and progression of the chronic kidney disease–associated bone and mineral disorder (CKD-MBD). These include sclerostin and the soluble receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB ligand (sRANKL). Methods: To better understand the role of biomarkers in post-transplant bone disease, this study was designed to prospectively evaluate and correlate results from the histomorphometric analysis of bone biopsies after KT with emerging serum biomarkers of the CKD-MBD: sclerostin, Dickkopf-related protein 1 (Dkk-1), sRANKL and osteo-protegerin (OPG). Results: Our data shows a significant increase in plasma levels of bioactive sclerostin after KT accompanied by a significant reduction in plasma levels of Dkk-1, suggesting a promotion of the inhibition of bone formation by osteoblasts through the activation of these inhibitors of the Wnt signaling pathway. In addition, we found a significant increase in plasma levels of free sRANKL after KT accompanied by a significant reduction in plasma levels of its decoy receptor OPG, suggesting an enhanced bone resorption by osteoclasts mediated by this mechanism. Conclusions: Taken together, these results suggest that the loss of bone volume observed after KT could be explain mainly by the inhibition of bone formation mediated by sclerostin accompanied by an enhanced bone resorption mediated by sRANKL.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Refer ence values of bone turnover markers (BTMs) are determined by factors that are country-specific. In Sri Lanka, unavailability of BTM reference data has led to their non-use in management of osteoporosis. The results of this study can be used as reference data for women in Sri Lanka. INTRODUCTION This study was performed to establish age-related reference intervals for bone resorption marker; cross-linked C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) and bone formation marker; procollagen type I N-propeptide (PINP) in a group of Sri Lankan adult women. METHODS Adult women (n = 347) aged 20-70 years were recruited using age-stratified random sampling technique and categorized into age groups by decades. Serum CTX and PINP concentration were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The geometric mean (95% confidence interval) and 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles were calculated. ANOVA was used to compare the means between groups. RESULTS Mean CTX levels were relatively low and remained unchanged between 20 and 49 years. After the age of 49 years, mean CTXconcentration elevated significantly until the age of 70 years (43%, p < 0.001). Mean PINP concentrations were not significantly different between age categories (p > 0.05). Reference intervals of CTX and PINP were based on 2.5th and 97.5th percentile values. Reference intervals of CTX for the age groups of 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and 60-70 years were 0.19-0.97 ng/mL, 0.18-0.95 ng/mL, 0.20-1.29 ng/mL, 0.17-2.20 ng/mL, and 0.17-2.85 ng/mL respectively. Reference intervals of PINP for the same age groups were 118-810 pg/mL, 119-772 pg/mL, 116-645 pg/mL, 108-684 pg/mL, and 108-715 pg/mL respectively. CONCLUSION In Sri Lanka, bone turnover markers are not used in evaluating patients mainly due to lack of normative data. These values can be used as reference data for women in this age group.

Abstract
Bone turnover markers fill a clinical need that improves comprehensive care of metabolic bone health and osteoporosis. Creating a standard process for drawing them that reduces modifiable variability improves their precision and clinical usefulness. Creating a standard process for interpreting them by applying statistical significance improves their clinical applicability. Understanding what causes them to increase and decrease can help elucidate secondary causes of osteoporosis. Monitoring them can assess patient adherence to therapy for a silent disease that will progressively become louder with an aging global population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), secondary hyperparathyroidism is assessed by measuring serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. Well-established, recommended, second-generation intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) tests are typical; rarely are more recent third-generation PTH 1-84 assays used. The agreement between results of the 2 tests in patients with CKD has not been sufficiently defined. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study aimed to compare Roche second- and third-generation PTH assays by establishing a quantitative relationship between the results of assays in patients with CKD and assessing degree of their correlation with kidney function and calcium-phosphate and bone metabolism parameters. In 205 patients with stages 3 to 5D CKD and 30 healthy controls, we measured levels of iPTH and PTH (1-84), creatinine, urea, cystatin C, calcium, inorganic phosphate, magnesium, alkaline phosphatase, bone alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and ß-CrossLaps. RESULTS The third-generation PTH assay results were more than 40% lower than those obtained with the second-generation test in patients undergoing dialysis and approximately 30% lower in patients in the pre-dialysis period. PTH concentrations determined with both assays were almost to the same extent correlated with calcium-phosphate and bone metabolism parameters, and renal function indices. Formulas have been developed enabling 2-way conversion of PTH results determined with both the second- and third-generation PTH assays: For dialyzed patients, PTH (1-84)=0.5181iPTH+18.0595. Serum osteocalcin, ß-CrossLaps, and total calcium were independent predictors of PTH levels. CONCLUSIONS Correcting for the established quantitative differences, the second-and third-generation PTH tests can be used interchangeably, given the almost identical pathophysiological correlations of their results with calcium-phosphate and bone metabolism parameters.

Abstract
Traumatic injury, including bone fracture, is, to date, one of the leading causes of koala mortality in the South East Queensland region of Australia. Further, the specialist diet of koalas, which is restricted to certain Eucalyptus spp., may impact their normal bone physiology. Considering the dramatic koala population decline and high incidence of trauma, a greater understanding of koala bone physiology may support conservation. We retrieved from GenBank the protein sequences of parathyroid hormone (PTH), osteocalcin (OCN), and tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNALP) in human, dog, cattle, horse, koala, and gray short-tailed opossum. After homology was determined, plasma samples from 13 koalas were analyzed with human PTH, OCN, and bone-specific ALP (BALP) assay kits. Although koala PTH exhibited relatively low sequence homology with placental mammals, high sequence homology between humans and koalas was observed for both OCN and TNALP, and successful cross-reactivity was achieved using human enzyme immunoassay kits for detection of OCN and BALP biomarkers in koala plasma. However, we identified no correlation between OCN and BALP concentrations of healthy and trauma-affected koalas (p = 0.66 and p = 0.79, respectively). Further analysis of OCN and BALP in healthy and diseased koalas will allow a better understanding of bone physiology in this unique marsupial.

Pediatr Nephrol 2020; 35:937-957. [PMID: 31240395 PMCID: PMC7184042 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-019-04271-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2019] [Revised: 04/19/2019] [Accepted: 04/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Mineral and bone disorder in chronic kidney disease (CKD-MBD) is a triad of biochemical imbalances of calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone and vitamin D, bone abnormalities and soft tissue calcification. Maintaining optimal bone health in children with CKD is important to prevent long-term complications, such as fractures, to optimise growth and possibly also to prevent extra-osseous calcification, especially vascular calcification. In this review, we discuss normal bone mineralisation, the pathophysiology of dysregulated homeostasis leading to mineralisation defects in CKD and its clinical consequences. Bone mineralisation is best assessed on bone histology and histomorphometry, but given the rarity with which this is performed, we present an overview of the tools available to clinicians to assess bone mineral density, including serum biomarkers and imaging such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and peripheral quantitative computed tomography. We discuss key studies that have used these techniques, their advantages and disadvantages in childhood CKD and their relationship to biomarkers and bone histomorphometry. Finally, we present recommendations from relevant guidelines-Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes and the International Society of Clinical Densitometry-on the use of imaging, biomarkers and bone biopsy in assessing bone mineral density. Given low-level evidence from most paediatric studies, bone imaging and histology remain largely research tools, and current clinical management is guided by serum calcium, phosphate, PTH, vitamin D and alkaline phosphatase levels only.

Abstract
Despite the availability of global and regional guidelines to curtail the adverse clinical outcomes associated with chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD), most CKD patients are still affected by the consequences of abnormalities of CKD-MBD. This important clinical complication of CKD continues to be studied, in order to improve the understanding and management of CKD-MBD. Some notable discoveries include the role of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) in the pathogenesis of CKD-MBD, leading to a shift from the previous well-established classic trade-off hypothesis to the updated trade-off hypothesis. More recently, there has been a shift from the treatment of CKD-MBD based on a single level of biomarkers to serial measurements of calcium, phosphate and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Furthermore, some clinical trials have emerged after the 2009 Kidney Disease-Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) Guidelines, leading to the 2017 KDIGO updated recommendations. Hence, this review gives an overview of the rapidly evolving trends in CKD-MBD, linking the past and current concepts of CKD-MBD.

Abstract
Current evidences continue to support the clinical application of bone turnover markers (BTMs) in the management of postmenopausal osteoporosis. The limitations of bone mineral density measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiomet especially emphasize the beneficial roles of BTMs, such as serum C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen and serum procollagen type I N-propeptide, as monitoring tools to assess the responses to treatment. Therefore, the proper application and assessment of BTM in clinical practice is very important. However, their use in Korea is still insufficient. Therefore, the BTM committee has set up by the Korean Society for Bone and Mineral Research have been constituted and provided a position statement which will suggest on the clinical application of BTM for the management of postmenopausal osteoporosis in Korea.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a key player of bone remodelling in patients suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD). Serum PTH concentrations are thus frequently measured in CKD patients. Nevertheless, this determination is far from simple. PTH stability can be an issue and degradation of the peptide can be important if storage is not properly done. Biologically active PTH circulates together with fragments, which can be detected by some immunoassays. There is, up to now, no standardization of the assays available on the market, which can lead to some confusion when patients are followed with different methods. The upper end of the reference ranges provided by some manufacturers have not been properly established and are sometimes far too high. Finally, PTH can be oxidized in vivo and thus become inactive, while still quantified by immunoassays. In this Editorial, we will try to highlight some of these issues on PTH measurement.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Osteoporosis is a common public health problem that is often undertreated and underdiagnosed. The clinical management of osteoporosis is often reactionary to devastating fracture events. Bone turnover markers may improve the ease and rapidity at which osteoporosis is monitored and treated. Bone turnover markers are biochemical byproducts of bone formation or bone resorption. The clinical use of bone turnover markers is limited by significant preanalytical variability. Effective interpretation of bone turnover markers requires a detailed understanding of the variables that can affect their responses to osteoporosis treatment and monitoring. RECENT FINDINGS Progress is continuously being made on the standardization of bone turnover markers. The literature on the response of bone turnover markers to unique clinical situations is expanding. Data for evidence-based reference intervals for bone turnover markers has increased. Variables that affect the appropriate timing of lab draws like diurnal variation, postprandial status, exercise and alcohol use have been described. Studies examining the expected response of bone turnover markers to treatments of osteoporosis and other medications that affect bone health continue to increase. SUMMARY Bone turnover markers have clinical utility in the comprehensive evaluation of osteoporosis. When interpreted with caution and with a good understanding of their natural variability, bone turnover markers provide information that supplements osteoporosis management and provides useful clinical information about conditions that alter bone turnover.

Severe secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients on haemodialysis is associated with a high initial serum parathyroid hormone and beta-CrossLaps level: Results from an incident cohort. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0199140. [PMID: 29912988 PMCID: PMC6005469 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0199140] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2017] [Accepted: 06/01/2018] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a frequent complication of renal disease and most commonly occurs in patients on haemodialysis (HD) with metabolic, vascular, endocrine, and bone complications. The aim of this study was to analyze the evolution of mineral metabolism parameters during the first 36 months of HD treatment and identify the initial factors associated with severe SHPT. METHODS Serum parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium and phosphate levels were measured monthly; bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (b-ALP) and beta-CrossLaps (CTX) were measured biannually. Severe SHPT was defined as the need for cinacalcet treatment. Patients with less than 24 months of follow-up were excluded. RESULTS One hundred thirty-three incident HD patients were included. Baseline mean PTH was 275 ± 210 pg/mL. After an initial drop at the third month (172 ± 133 pg/mL), the serum PTH level progressively increased to the maximum at 36 months (367 ± 254 pg/mL). This initial drop was associated with the initial correction of both hypocalcaemia and hyperphosphataemia. Serum CTX and b-ALP revealed no significant changes over time. Severe SHPT was observed in 18% of patients and was associated with higher mean calcaemia and phosphataemia. In logistic regression, the initial factors associated with the risk of severe SHPT were: female sex, higher baseline PTH and CTX values. A receiver operation characteristic curve analysis identified a cut-off value of >374 pg/mL for baseline PTH and >1.2 μg/L for CTX for increased risk of developing severe SHPT. The relative risk of developing severe SHPT was 3.7 (1.8-7.5, p = 0.002) for high baseline CTX, 4.9 (2.4-9.7, p = 0.001) for high baseline PTH, and 7.7 (3.6-16, p< 0.0001) when both criteria were present. CONCLUSION After an initial drop, a progressive increase in the serum PTH level during the first 3 years of HD treatment was observed despite aggressive therapy. High baseline levels of PTH and CTX increased the risk of developing severe SHPT.

Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is a heterogeneous group of metabolic bone diseases complicating progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD). Bone biomarkers and bone imaging techniques may help to assess bone health and predict fractures in CKD but do have important inherent limitations. By informing on bone turnover and mineralization, a bone biopsy may help to guide prevention and treatment of ROD and its consequences. According to a recent survey conducted among European nephrologists, bone biopsies are performed rather exceptionally, both for clinical and research purposes. Obviously, clinical research in the field of ROD is threatened by vanishing clinical and pathological expertise, small patient cohorts and scientific isolation. In March 2016, the European Renal Osteodystrophy (EU-ROD) initiative was created under the umbrella of the ERA-EDTA CKD-mineral and bone disorder (MBD) Working Group to revitalize bone biopsy as a clinically useful tool in the diagnostic workup of CKD-MBD and to foster research on the epidemiology, implications and reversibility of ROD. As such, the EU-ROD initiative aims to increase the understanding of ROD and ultimately to improve outcomes in CKD patients.

Abstract
End-stage renal disease is associated with mineral and bone disorders. Guidelines recommending therapies should be based on serial assessments of biomarkers, and thus on variations (Δ), rather than scattered values. We analyzed the correlations between ΔPTH and Δbone biomarkers such as bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (b-ALP), Beta-CrossLaps (CTX), osteocalcin, intact serum procollagen type-1 N-propeptide (P1NP), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5B (TRAP-5B) at different time-points. In this prospective observational analysis, variations of biomarkers were followed after 6-week (n = 129), 6-month (n = 108) and one-year (n = 93) period. Associations between variations were studied by univariate linear regression. Patients followed for one-year period were classified (increaser or decliner) according to variations reaching the critical difference. Over the 6-week period, only ΔCTX was correlated with ΔPTH (r = 0.38, p < 0.0001). Over the one-year period, correlations between ΔPTH and Δbone biomarkers became significant (r from 0.23 to 0.47, p < 0.01), except with ΔTRAP-5b. Correlations between Δbone biomarkers were all significant after one-year period (r from 0.31 to 0.68, p < 0.01), except between Δb-ALP and ΔTRAP-5b. In the head-to-head classifications (decliners/increasers), the percentage of concordant patients was significantly higher over the one-year than the 6-week period. A concordance between ΔPTH and Δbone biomarkers is observed in dialysis patients, but only after a long follow-up.

Abstract
In this consensus paper, the Belgian Bone Club aims to provide a state of the art on the epidemiology, diagnosis, and management of osteoporosis in frail individuals, including patients with anorexia nervosa, patients on dialysis, cancer patients, persons with sarcopenia, and the oldest old. All these conditions may indeed induce bone loss that is superimposed on physiological bone loss and often remains under-recognized and under-treated. This is of particular concern because of the major burden of osteoporotic fractures in terms of morbidity, mortality, and economic cost. Therefore, there is an urgent need to appreciate bone loss associated with these conditions, as this may improve diagnosis and management of bone loss and fracture risk in clinical practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) stability is important. Many studies have shown divergent results between EDTA and serum, which are mainly linked to differences in protocols or cut-offs used to determine whether or not PTH remained stable. No studies have yet compared PTH stability as measured by second- and third-generation assays on the same samples in hemodialyzed patients and healthy subjects.
Methods:
Five pairs of samples (EDTA and gel tubes) were obtained in 10 hemodialyzed patients before a dialysis session and in 10 healthy subjects. One pair was centrifuged and run directly to define the “T0”. Two pairs were kept at +4°C and two pairs were kept at +25°C. They were centrifuged after 4 and 18 h. Supernatant was kept at –80°C for 1 week. All samples were measured in a single batch, on Roche Cobas and DiaSorin XL second- and third-generation PTH assays. We used three different approaches to evaluate PTH stability: Wilcoxon test, an Acceptable Change Limit (ACL) according to ISO Guide 5725-6 and a Total Change Limit (TCL) derived from the sum of biological and technical variability according to WHO.
Results:
PTH decreased in all samples. Stability of PTH was mainly dependent on the way it was evaluated. Percentages of decrease were systematically lower in EDTA vs. serum. Wilcoxon and ACL showed that PTH was no more stable after 4 h at +4°C in EDTA or serum gel tubes. None of the subjects presented a PTH decrease higher than the TCL with EDTA plasma. In serum gel tubes, PTH was unstable only when kept at 25°C for 18 h.
Conclusions:
PTH seems more stable in EDTA than in serum gel tubes but only when samples have to stay unprocessed for a long period (18 h) at room temperature (25°C), which can happen when samples are delivered from external care centers. For all the other conditions, using serum gel tubes is recommended since calcium measurement, which is necessary for a good PTH results interpretation, can be achieved on the same tube.

Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy is a feature of chronic kidney disease (CKD), with increasing prevalence as CKD progresses. This bone disease is responsible for major morbidity, including fractures, and a deterioration in the quality of life and its sequelae. Circulating biomarkers of renal osteodystrophy typically indicate bone turnover, but not other features of bone, like bone volume, mineralization, quality or strength. Bone turnover can be considered to be primarily a reflection of bone cell activity, in particular that of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Since current treatments for bone disease usually target cellular activity, biomarkers are considered to be able to contribute to the decision-making for treatment and its follow-up. In CKD, one has to consider the impact of a diminished clearance of biomarkers or their altered metabolism, both potentially limiting its clinical use. Here, several aspects of the most frequently used biomarkers of bone turnover are reviewed, with an emphasis on the specific situation represented by CKD. This review is based on the overview lecture at the symposium held in Amsterdam, September 23, 2016: “The Bone In CKD”, organized by the CKD-MBD working group of ERA-EDTA.

Abstract
Low-turnover bone disease is a complication of chronic kidney disease and a long-term steroid therapy. Currently, the only bone anabolic treatment available is teriparatide (TPTD). So far, no data exist in heart transplant patients, and only one single case with histomorphometric analysis of a dialysis patient with a low-turnover bone disease has been published. The current report shows the effect of a 1-year TPTD therapy in a cardiac transplant patient with 10 vertebral and 3 peripheral fractures who had developed a chronic kidney failure while receiving triple immunosuppressive therapy. A transiliac bone biopsy following tetracycline labeling was performed prior and after 1 year of treatment, showing an increase in the bone formation and improvement of the structural indices (20-fold increase of osteoid volume/bone volume, fourfold increase of osteoid surface/bone surface and increases of wall thickness (+15%), trabecular thickness (+9%), and trabecular number (+38%)). Bone mineral density was stable, no new vertebral fractures had occurred, the therapy was well-tolerated, and the patient improved clinically.

Abstract
Bone disorders in chronic kidney disease (CKD) are associated with heightened risks of fractures, vascular calcification, poor quality of life and mortality compared to the general population. However, diagnosis and management of these disorders in CKD are complex and appreciably limited by current diagnostic modalities. Areas covered: Bone histomorphometry remains the gold standard for diagnosis but is not widely utilised and lacks feasibility as a monitoring tool. In practice, non-invasive imaging and biochemical markers are preferred to guide therapeutic decisions. Expert commentary: This review aims to summarize the risk factors for, and spectrum of bone disease in CKD, as well as appraise the clinical utility of dual energy X-ray densitometry, peripheral quantitative computed tomography, high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography, and bone turnover markers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bone changes are increasingly described after burn. How bone markers could help to detect early bone changes or to screen burn patients at higher risk of demineralization is still not made clear. We performed an observational study assessing the changes in serum bone markers after moderate burn. METHODS Adults admitted in the first 24h following burn extended on >10% body surface area were included. Serum levels of collagen type 1 cross-linked C-telopeptide (CTX), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAP), type 1 procollagen N-terminal (P1NP) and bone alkaline phosphatase (b-ALP) were measured at admission and every week during the first month. Data are expressed as median [min-max]. RESULTS Bone markers were measured in 20 patients: 18 men, 2 women (including one post-menopausal). Age was 46 [19-86] years old, burn surface area reached 15 [7-85] %. Twelve patients completed the study. All biomarkers mainly remained into normal ranges during evolution. A huge variability was observed regarding biomarkers evolution. Patient's evolution was not linear and could fluctuate from a decrease to an increase of blood concentrations. There was not necessarily a consistency between the two formation or the two resorption markers. Variations observed between two consecutive measurements were lesser than the accepted critical difference in almost one third of the cases. CONCLUSIONS Considering available data, role and interest of bone markers in management of burn related bone disease remain unclear.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients present specific bone and mineral metabolism disturbances, which account for important morbidity and mortality. The term renal osteodystrophy, classically used for the nomination of CKD-associated bone disorder, has been limited to the histologic description of bone lesions, requiring the use of bone biopsy. Biochemical markers and imaging tools do not adequately predict the complex bone changes that are observed in renal osteodystrophy. Parathyroid hormone, which is a universally used biomarker of bone turnover in clinical practice, lacks specificity and sensitivity. Therefore, tetracycline double-labelled transiliac bone biopsy, with bone histology and histomorphometric evaluation, remains the best clinical tool to discriminate bone turnover and to evaluate the other dimensions of renal osteodystrophy. This review will focus on the value of classic bone histomorphometric analysis of trabecular bone in CKD patients and unfold new perspectives of this diagnostic tool, including cortical bone evaluation and bone tissue immunohistochemistry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In elderly subjects, renal insufficiency and osteoporosis often coexist with high risk of fracture and elevated socio-economic burden. Today a large number of effective anti-osteoporotic drugs are available but generally they are contraindicated in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) because of their progressive accumulation. Denosumab, instead, does not require dose adjustments for different degrees of renal impairment so it can be a valid treatment in osteoporotic patients with CKD. Limited data are available in the literature concerning the use of denosumab in hemodialysis (HD). The aim of our study was, therefore, to study the efficacy and tolerability of this drug in this particular subset of patients. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the charts of 12 osteoporotic HD patients who received a single 60-mg subcutaneous dose of denosumab every 6 months for an observation period of 24 months. Serum electrolyte, markers of bone turnover and quantitative ultrasound (QUS) were evaluated. RESULTS Over 24 months, we observed a gradual improvement of bone metabolism: β-CrossLaps from 2567.08 ± 1264 to 1492.5 ± 1182.5 pg/ml; bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP) from 33.5 ± 28.8 to 11.8 ± 3.7 mcg/l, and of QUS index (T-score from -5.33 ± 1.58 to -4.84 ± 1.2; risk of fracture from 13.9 ± 4.7 to 11.07 ± 5.3 %). Few cases of hypocalcemia were detected, more significant after the first and second injection, but with careful monitoring of serum calcium and rapid therapy adjustment we could easily manage serum Ca levels. CONCLUSIONS Our pilot experience highlights the safety and efficacy of denosumab in the treatment of osteoporosis in HD patients, potentially supporting its use to reduce the burden of fractures in this patient population.

Abstract
The exact role of biochemical markers of bone turnover in the management of metabolic bone diseases remains a topic of controversy. In this consensus paper, the Belgian Bone Club aimed to provide a state of the art on the use of these biomarkers in different clinical or physiological situations like in postmenopausal women, osteoporosis in men, in elderly patients, in patients suffering from bone metastasis, in patients with chronic renal failure, in pregnant or lactating women, in intensive care patients, and in diabetics. We also gave our considerations on the analytical issues linked to the use of these biomarkers, on potential new emerging biomarkers, and on the use of bone turnover biomarkers in the follow-up of patients treated with new drugs for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Current evidence continues to support the potential for bone turnover markers (BTM) to provide clinically useful information particularly for monitoring the efficacy of osteoporosis treatment. Many of the limitations identified earlier remain, principally in regard to the relationship between BTM and incident fractures. Important data are now available on reference interval values for CTX and PINP across a range of geographic regions and for individual clinical assays. An apparent lack of comparability between current clinical assays for CTX has become evident indicating the possible limitations of combining such data for meta-analyses. Harmonization of units for reporting serum/plasma CTX (ng/L) and PINP (μg/L) is recommended. The development of international collaborations continues with an important initiative to combine BTM results from clinical trials in osteoporosis in a meta-analysis and an assay harmonization program are likely to be beneficial. It is possible that knowledge derived from clinical studies can further enhance fracture risk estimation tools with inclusion of BTM together with other independent risk factors. Further data of the relationships between the clinical assays for CTX and PINP as well as physiological and pre-analytical factors contributing to variability in BTM concentrations are required.

Abstract
Adynamic bone disease (ABD) is a well-recognized clinical entity in the complex chronic kidney disease (CKD)-mineral and bone disorder. Although the combination of low intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) and low bone alkaline phosphatase levels may be suggestive of ABD, the gold standard for precise diagnosis is histomorphometric analysis of tetracycline double-labeled bone biopsies. ABD essentially is characterized by low bone turnover, low bone volume, normal mineralization, and markedly decreased cellularity with minimal or no fibrosis. ABD is increasing in prevalence relative to other forms of renal osteodystrophy, and is becoming the most frequent type of bone lesion in some series. ABD develops in situations with reduced osteoanabolic stimulation caused by oversuppression of PTH, multifactorial skeletal resistance to PTH actions in uremia, and/or dysregulation of Wnt signaling. All may contribute not only to bone disease but also to the early vascular calcification processes observed in CKD. Various risk factors have been linked to ABD, including calcium loading, ageing, diabetes, hypogonadism, parathyroidectomy, peritoneal dialysis, and antiresorptive therapies, among others. The relationship between low PTH level, ABD, increased risk fracture, and vascular calcifications may at least partially explain the association of ABD with increased mortality rates. To achieve optimal bone and cardiovascular health, attention should be focused not only on classic control of secondary hyperparathyroidism but also on prevention of ABD, especially in the steadily growing proportions of diabetic, white, and elderly patients. Overcoming the insufficient osteoanabolic stimulation in ABD is the ultimate treatment goal.

Abstract
Although the past decade has seen a surfeit of new targeted therapies for renal cell carcinoma (RCC), no predictive molecular biomarker is currently used in routine clinical practice to guide personalized therapy as a companion diagnostic. Many putative biomarkers have been suggested, but none have undergone rigorous validation. There have been considerable advances in the biological understanding of RCC in recent years, with the development of accompanying molecular diagnostics that with additional validation, may be helpful for routine clinical decision making. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of predictive biomarkers in RCC management and also highlight upcoming developments of interest in biomarker research for personalizing RCC diagnostics and therapeutics.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease--mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a complex syndrome influenced by various factors, such as age, CKD etiology, uremic toxins, and dialysis modality. Although extensively studied in hemodialysis (HD) patients, only a few studies exist for peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Since most of these older studies contain no bone biopsy data, we studied the pattern of renal osteodystrophy in 41 prevalent PD patients. The most common presentation was adynamic bone disease (49%). There was a significant inverse association between serum sclerostin (a Wnt/β-catenin pathway inhibitor that decreases osteoblast action and bone formation) and the bone formation rate. Bone alkaline phosphatase had the best sensitivity and specificity to detect both high- and low-turnover diseases. The comparison between nondiabetic PD and HD patients, matched by age, gender, parathyroid hormone level, and length of dialysis, revealed low 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels, worse bone mineralization, and low bone turnover in the nondiabetic PD group. Thus, adynamic bone disease was the most frequent type of renal osteodystrophy in PD patients. Sclerostin seems to participate in the pathophysiology of adynamic bone disease and bone alkaline phosphatase was the best serum marker of bone turnover in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS To assess the relationship between bone and vascular disease and its changes over time after renal transplantation. Metabolic bone disease (MBD) is common in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with cardiovascular (CV) disease. Following transplantation (Tx), improvement in CV disease has been reported; however, data regarding changes in bone disease remain controversial. METHODS Bone turnover and arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity (PWV)) were assessed in 47 Tx patients (38 (3-191) months after Tx). RESULTS Bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP), osteocalcin (OC) and beta-crosslaps were significantly higher in Tx patients, and decreased significantly after one year. There was a negative correlation between BALP, OC and steroid administered (r = -0.35; r = -0.36 respectively). PWV increased in the Tx group (1.15 SD). In patients with a follow up of <24 months, PWV was correlated with BALP and beta-crosslaps (r=0.53; r = 0.69 respectively) while in the ≥24 months group, PWV was correlated with cholesterol (r=0.38). CONCLUSIONS Increased bone turnover and arterial stiffness are present following kidney transplantation. While bone turnover decreases with time, arterial stiffness correlates initially with bone turnover, after which the influence of cholesterol becomes significant. Non-invasive estimation of bone metabolism and arterial stiffness may help to assess CKD-MBD following renal transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) is now recommended to assess bone turnover in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, little is known about potential variability between methods available to measure BAP. METHODS We measured BAP in 76 HD patients with six different assays (Beckman-Coulter Ostase IRMA, Beckman-Coulter Ostase Access, IDS iSYS Ostase, IDS Ostase enzyme immunoassay, DiaSorin Liaison Ostase and Quidel MicroVue BAP). RESULTS We observed a high correlation between all the assays ranging from 0.9948 (IDS iSYS vs. IDS EIA) to 0.9215 (DiaSorin Liaison vs. Quidel MicroVue). However, using the regression equations, the equivalent concentration of a Beckman-Coulter Access value of 10 μg/L can range from 7.7 to 14.4 μg/L and of 20 μg/L can range from 16.9 to 27.9 μg/L with other assays. According to Beckman-Coulter Access, 13%, 50% and 37% of the patients presented BAP values ≤10, between 10 and 20 and ≥20 μg/L, respectively. Discrepancies are observed when other assays are used (concordance from 10 to 100%). CONCLUSIONS Analytical problems leading to inter-method variation should be overcome to improve the usefulness of this marker in clinical practice. According to correlation results, recalibration of BAP assays is necessary but should not be a major issue.
