The biological variation of serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D and parathyroid hormone, and plasma fibroblast growth factor 23 in healthy individuals. Clin Chim Acta 2024; 557:117863. [PMID: 38471629 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2024.117863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Measuring 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D), parathyroid hormone 1-84 (PTH 1-84) and intact FGF23 (iFGF23) is crucial for diagnosing a variety of diseases affecting bone and mineral homeostasis. Biological variability (BV) data are important for defining analytical quality specifications (APS), the usefulness of reference intervals, and the significance of variations in serial measurements in the same subject. The aim of this study was to pioneer the provision of BV estimates for 1,25(OH)2D and to improve existing BV estimates for iFGF23 and PTH 1-84. MATERIALS AND METHODS Serum and plasma-EDTA samples of sixteen healthy subjects have been collected for seven weeks and measured in duplicate by chemiluminescent immunoassay on the DiaSorin Liaison platform. After variance verification, within-subject (CVI) and between-subject (CVG) BV estimates were assessed by either standard ANOVA, or CV-ANOVA. The APSs were calculated according to the EFLM-BV-model. RESULTS We found the following CVI estimates with 95% confidence intervals:1,25(OH)2D, 22.2% (18.9-26.4); iFGF23, 16.1% (13.5-19.5); and PTH 1-84, 17.9% (14.8-21.8). The CVG were: 1,25(OH)2D, 21.2% (14.2-35.1); iFGF23, 21.1% (14.5-35.8); and PTH 1-84, 31.1% (22.1-50.8). CONCLUSIONS We report for the first time BV estimates for 1,25(OH)2D and enhance existing data about iFGF23-BV and PTH 1-84-BV through cutting-edge immunometric methods.

Abstract
Background PTH assays are not standardized; therefore, method-specific PTH reference intervals are required for interpretation of results. PTH increases with age in adults but age-related reference intervals for the Abbott intact PTH (iPTH) assay are not available. Methods Deidentified serum PTH results from September 2015 to November 2022 were retrieved from the laboratory information system of a laboratory serving a cosmopolitan population in central-west England for individuals aged 18 years and older if the estimated glomerular filtration rate was ≥60 mL/min, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D was >50 nmol/L, and serum albumin-adjusted calcium and serum phosphate were within reference intervals. Age-specific reference intervals for Abbott iPTH were derived by an indirect method using the refineR algorithm. Results PTH increased with age and correlated with age when controlled for 25-hydroxyvitamin D, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and adjusted calcium (r = 0.093, P < .001). The iPTH age-specific reference intervals for 4 age partitions of 18 to 45 years, 46 to 60 years, 61 to 80 years, and 81 to 95 years were 1.6 to 8.6 pmol/L, 1.8 to 9.5 pmol/L, 2.0 to 11.3 pmol/L, and 2.3 to 12.3 pmol/L, respectively. PTH was higher in women compared with men (P < .001). Sex-specific age-related reference intervals could not be derived because of the limited sample size. Conclusion Age-specific Abbott iPTH reference intervals were derived. Application of age-specific reference intervals will impact the diagnosis and management of normocalcemic hyperparathyroidism, based on current definitions, and secondary hyperparathyroidism. Additional studies are required to clarify the effect of sex and ethnicity on PTH.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to study the relationship between aging and increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) values. METHODS We performed a retrospective cross-sectional study with data from patients who underwent outpatient PTH measurements performed by a second-generation electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. We included patients over 18 years of age with simultaneous PTH, calcium, and creatinine measurements and 25-OHD measured within 30 days. Patients with glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, altered calcemia, 25-OHD level < 20 ng/mL, PTH values > 100 pg/mL or using lithium, furosemide or antiresorptive therapy were excluded. Statistical analyses were performed using the RefineR method. RESULTS Our sample comprised 263,242 patients for the group with 25-OHD ≥ 20 ng/mL, that included 160,660 with 25-OHD ≥ 30 ng/mL. The difference in PTH values among age groups divided by decades was statistically significant (p < 0.0001), regardless of 25-OHD values, ≥ 20 or ≥ 30 ng/mL. In the group with 25-OHD ≥ 20 ng/mL and more than 60 years, the PTH values were 22.1-84.0 pg/mL, a different upper reference limit from the reference value recommended by the kit manufacturer. CONCLUSION We observed a correlation between aging and PTH increase, when measured by a second-generation immunoassay, regardless of vitamin D levels, if greater than 20 ng/mL, in normocalcemic individuals without renal dysfunction.

Threshold of 25(OH)D and consequently adjusted parathyroid hormone reference intervals: data mining for relationship between vitamin D and parathyroid hormone. J Endocrinol Invest 2023; 46:2067-2077. [PMID: 36920734 PMCID: PMC10514164 DOI: 10.1007/s40618-023-02057-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE By recruiting reference population, we aimed to (1): estimate the 25(OH)D threshold that maximally inhibits the PTH, which can be defined as the cutoff value for vitamin D sufficiency; (2) establish the PTH reference interval (RI) in population with sufficient vitamin D. METHODS Study data were retrieved from LIS (Laboratory Information Management System) under literature suggested criteria, and outliers were excluded using Tukey fence method. Locally weighted regression (LOESS) and segmented regression (SR) were conducted to estimate the threshold of 25(OH)D. Multivariate linear regression was performed to evaluate the associations between PTH concentration and variables including 25(OH)D, gender, age, estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR), body mass index (BMI), albumin-adjusted serum calcium (aCa), serum phosphate(P), serum magnesium(Mg), and blood collection season. Z test was adopted to evaluate whether the reference interval should be stratified by determinants such as age and gender. RESULTS A total of 64,979 apparently healthy subjects were recruited in this study, with median (Q1, Q3) 25(OH)D of 45.33 (36.15, 57.50) nmol/L and median (Q1, Q3) PTH of 42.19 (34.24, 52.20) ng/L. The segmented regression determined the 25(OH)D threshold of 55 nmol/L above which PTH would somewhat plateau and of 22 nmol/L below which PTH would rise steeply. Multivariate linear regression suggested that gender, EGFR, and BMI were independently associated with PTH concentrations. The PTH RI was calculated as 22.17-72.72 ng/L for subjects with 25(OH)D ≥ 55 nmol/L with no necessity of stratification according to gender, age, menopausal status nor season. CONCLUSION This study reported 25(OH)D thresholds of vitamin D sufficiency at 55 nmol/L and vitamin D deficiency at 22 nmol/L, and consequently established PTH RIs in subjects with sufficient vitamin D for northern China population for the first time.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) determination is of paramount importance for the exploration of diseases related with calcium metabolism and for the follow-up of patients suffering from bone and mineral disorders associated with chronic kidney diseases (CKD-MBD). Unfortunately, the biologically active form of PTH, i.e. 1-84 PTH, circulates in the blood stream with many fragments and post-translationally modified forms, which decreases the specificity of immunoassays. The assays used to measure PTH, either from 2nd or 3rd generation, are not standardised, which may lead to interpretation errors and clinical consequences. Reference ranges for PTH have neither been always correctly established and the stability of the peptide is also a matter of concern. Fortunately, these last years, newer techniques using mass spectrometry (either high resolution or triple quadripole) coupled with liquid chromatography have been developed, which will help to standardise the different assays. Indeed, PTH assays standardisation is one of the task of the IFCC Committee for Bone Metabolism. Such standardisation will allow a better consistency in the interpretation of the results and will promote studies aiming at the establishment of correct reference ranges.

Reconsidering vitamin D optimal values based on parathyroid hormone levels in a North Algerian cohort: stratification by gender and season. Arch Osteoporos 2022; 17:100. [PMID: 35895238 DOI: 10.1007/s11657-022-01137-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
"Health-based threshold value" is used to define the optimal cutoff of vitamin D. This approach is based on the hypothesis of a secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with hypovitaminosis D. We define the optimal values in a North Algerian population. The optimal value is 25.0 ng/ml in men and 30.0 ng/ml in women. PURPOSE/INTRODUCTION There is no consensus defining the vitamin D optimal values. The aim of this study is to establish vitamin D optimal values in the Northern Algerian population, based on its skeletal effects as represented by the inverse relationship between 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH) D) and parathyroid hormone (PTH). METHODS 451 healthy volunteers of both genders, aged 19 to 79 years, were enrolled in a cross-sectional study conducted at the medical analysis laboratory of the University Hospital of Blida, Algeria. 25(OH) D was assessed by a sequential competitive immuno-fluoroassay technique. Determination of vitamin D optimal values was performed based on the kinetic relationship between 25(OH) D and PTH, as explored by inverse nonlinear regression on a spline plots curve. The optimal value represents the 25(OH) D level at which PTH ceases to increase and reaches a virtual plateau. RESULTS In men and women, respectively, the 25 (OH) D thresholds are estimated at 25.0 ng/ml and 30 ng/ml, above this value, PTH stabilizes in a virtual plateau, estimated at 22.3 pg/ml and 26.8 pg/ml. In warm and cold seasons, respectively, the 25 (OH) D cut-offs are estimated at 30.0 ng/ml and 25.0 ng/ml, from these values, the PTH stabilizes in a virtual plateau, estimated at 21.5 pg/ml and 27.7 pg/ml. CONCLUSION In this study, the optimal values of 25(OH) D were defined for the first time in a North Algerian adult population. The optimal value is 25.0 ng/ml in men and 30.0 ng/ml in women.

Serum iPTH range in a reference population: From an integrated approach to vitamin D prevalence impact evaluation. Clin Chim Acta 2021; 521:1-8. [PMID: 34111419 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2021.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2021] [Revised: 05/31/2021] [Accepted: 06/01/2021] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The iPTH upper reference limit (URL) reported by our laboratory provider (Abbott Laboratories) at Tor Vergata University Hospital was evaluated by internal verification procedures as not representative of our population and resulting as underestimated. In this study, a new reference interval has been investigated and established by comparing a direct and an indirect method based on a statistical reduction from results stored in the laboratory database. METHODS For reference interval calculation from the healthy population, we analyzed a cohort of 100 blood donors (84% males and 16% females) screened with no bone-related and malabsorption diseases. We analyzed a cohort of 495 patients retrieved from more than 800 iPTH results by excluding subjects with pathological measurement for calcium, phosphorus, and creatinine for the reference interval evaluation. Patients with vitamin D results were included in the analysis. Vitamin D sufficiency status during the period from January to September 2020 was also evaluated by investigating 3,050 patients. RESULTS The iPTH reference interval of a healthy blood donor population was measured as 25.2-109.1 pg/mL (2.7-11.6 pmol/L) at 2.5 and 97.5 distribution percentile. The iPTH reference interval from data stored in the laboratory database was 19.3-112.5 pg/mL (2.0-11.9 pmol/L). Furthermore, 60% of the whole population had prevalently insufficient vitamin D concentration (<30 ng/dL; <75 nmol/L). The impact of vitamin D concentration on the iPTH reference interval was measured for insufficient vitamin D (<30 ng/dL; <75 nmol/L) as 15.2-127.7 pg/mL (1.6-13.5 pmol/L), desirable vitamin D (30-40 ng/ml; 75-100 nmol/L) as 25.6-105 pg/mL (2.7-10.7 pmol/L) and optimal vitamin D (>40 ng/ml; >100 nmol/L) as 26.2-89.2 pg/mL (2.8-9.4 pmol/L), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The URL reported in manufacturer datasheets likely refers to a normal population with non-pathological vitamin D levels. On the contrary, the considered population was mostly vitamin D insufficient, resulting in a URL shift. On this basis, we suggest describing in medical reports the iPTH range for vitamin D deficiency for diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism even when a specific vitamin D request is lacking. On the other hand, reporting optimal vitamin D-based iPTH reference interval could be clinically relevant in supplemented patients as a marker of treatment efficacy.

Abstract
Background Cherubism is a rare autosomal dominant genetic condition caused by mutations in the SH3BP2 gene. This disease is characterized by osteolysis of the jaws, with the bone replaced by soft tissue rich in fibroblasts and multinuclear giant cells. SH3BP2 is a ubiquitous adaptor protein yet the consequences of SH3BP2 mutation have so far been described as impacting only face. Cherubism mouse models have been generated and unlike human patients, the knock-in mice exhibit systemic bone loss together with a systemic inflammation. Case presentation In light of these observations, we decided to search for a systemic cherubism phenotype in a 6-year-old girl with an aggressive cherubism. We report here the first case of cherubism with systemic manifestations. Bone densitometry showed low overall bone density (total body Z-score = − 4.6 SD). Several markers of bone remodelling (CTx, BALP, P1NP) as well as inflammation (TNFα and IL-1) were elevated. A causative second-site mutation in other genes known to influence bone density was ruled out by sequencing a panel of such genes. Conclusions If this systemic skeletal cherubism phenotype should be confirmed, it would simplify the treatment of severe cherubism patients and allay reservations about applying a systemic treatment such as those recently published (tacrolimus or imatinib) to a disease heretofore believed to be localised to the jaws.

[PMID: 32417213 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2020.05.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2020] [Revised: 03/23/2020] [Accepted: 05/13/2020] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND-AIM Appropriately defined reference values are of vital importance for the correct interpretation of laboratory results. However, the implementation of in-house reference intervals by traditional methods is rare due to difficulties in the selection of reference individuals, so indirect methods are often alternatively used. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a crucial hormone for the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus whose result can lead to erroneous diagnoses and medical actions if adequate reference intervals are not readily available. Our goal was to obtain reference values for adult population for PTH by using data mining. Based on possible new reference intervals, we also aimed to perform a retrospective evaluation of the individuals mistakenly classified. METHODS Retrospective observational study between 2014 and 2019. All requests from individuals aged ≥ 18 years were considered if PTH was requested together with serum creatinine, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, calcium, albumin and phosphate (within their respective reference intervals). PTH was measured on the Cobas e411 platform (Roche). Requests were grouped by age and sex. Differences among partitions were assessed by the Harris-Boyd's test and reference intervals were determined by the non-parametrical calculation of percentiles 2.5 and 97.5. RESULTS A total of 2279 laboratory requests were included. Reference intervals for PTH were seen to be sex-independent, but age-dependent reference intervals were needed: 18-39, 40-59 and >60 years. Based on the reference intervals obtained, up to 20.1% of individuals were misclassified. CONCLUSIONS Appropriateness of PTH reference intervals would lead to a reduction in the number of additional tests and avoid wrong medical actions, thus improving not only patient safety, but also the healthcare system as a whole.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of the current study is to determine PTH reference values in vitamin-D-replete Lebanese adults using 2nd and 3rd generation PTH assays and to look at the factors that affect PTH variations. METHODS Fasting PTH was measured using 2nd and 3rd generation Diasorin PTH assays in 339 vitamin-D-replete healthy subjects aged 18 to 63 years (230 men and 109 women) who have normal calcium levels and an eGFR ≥60 ml/mn. 25-OH vitamin D (25(OH)D) was measured using the Diasorin assay. RESULTS For the 2nd PTH generation, median (IQR) levels were 48.9 (34.9-66.0) pg/ml, and its 2.5th-97.5th percentile values were 19.7-110.5 pg/ml for 25(OH)D values between 20 and 30 ng/ml, and 19.7-110.7 pg/ml for 25(OH)D values ≥30 ng/ml. For the 3rd PTH generation, the median (IQR) values were 23.9 (17.7-30.5) pg/ml, and its 2.5th-97.5th percentile values were, respectively, 9.2 and 50.2 pg/ml for 25(OH)D values between 20 and 30 ng/ml, and 8.4 and 45.4 pg/ml for 25(OH)D values ≥30 ng/ml. The median (IQR) serum 25(OH)D levels were 27.5 (23.8-32.7) ng/ml. 2nd and 3rd generation PTH values are strongly correlated (r = 0.96, p < 0.0001), but poorly concordant (Lin's concordance coefficient 0.365, 95% CI: 0.328-0.401) with observations beyond the 95% Bland-Altman limits of agreement. 2nd and 3rd generation PTH levels did not differ according to gender and were significantly correlated with age but not with 25(OH)D and serum calcium levels. CONCLUSION Lebanese adult healthy subjects have higher 2nd and 3rd generation PTH levels compared with the reference range provided by the manufacturer. The reference range was not influenced by changing the 25(OH)D cutoff. The clinical significance of the higher PTH levels in our population should be investigated.

Abstract
PTH is an important regulator of calcium and phosphate homeostasis and bone remodeling. It is metabolized into PTH fragments, which are measured to a different extent by PTH assays of different generations because of differences in fragments recognized and lack of assay standardization. PTH is measured in the workup of several conditions, and clinical guidelines provide recommendations concerning these measurements. This review provides an overview of the impact of differences between PTH assays, applying distinct clinical guidelines for primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism and perioperative use of PTH measurements. Guidelines deal with PTH measurement in different ways, recommending either trend monitoring, the use of a fold increase of the upper reference limit, or an absolute PTH cutoff value. For classic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), the type of PTH assay used will not affect diagnosis or management because the precise concentration of PTH is less relevant. In chronic kidney disease, the guideline recommends treating secondary hyperparathyroidism above a twofold to ninefold PTH increase, which will result in different clinical decisions depending on the assay used. For patients after bariatric surgery, guidelines state absolute cutoff values for PTH, but the impact of different generation assays is unknown because direct comparison of PTH assays has never been performed. During parathyroid surgery, PTH measurements with a third-generation assay reflect treatment success more rapidly than second-generation assays. Increased awareness among clinicians regarding the complexity of PTH measurements is warranted because it can affect clinical decisions.

Abstract
Hyperparathyroidism is a clinical and laboratory syndrome characterized by high production of the chief cells of the parathyroid hormone, a calcium-phosphorus metabolism disorder and the organ failure (kidneys, bone tissue).There are primary, secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism.This literature review is focused on tertiary hyperparathyroidism and includes the following sections: definition of different forms of hyperparathyroidism, the role of vitamin D in the tertiary hyperparathyroidism development, the development of tertiary hyperparathyroidism in chronic kidney disease patients, the development of tertiary hyperparathyroidism in patients after kidney transplantation, differential diagnosis various forms of hyperparathyroidism, indications for surgical tertiary hyperparathyroidism treatment in patients with kidney disease, in patients with normal kidney function.Objective. The objective of this literature review is to study the current information about this definition, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of tertiary hyperparathyroidism.Methodology. The literature review was taken in English data bases MEDLINE (Pubmed), Scopus, Cochlear library, using following keywords: “secondary hyperparathyroidism pathogenesis diagnosis treatment”, “tertiary hyperparathyroidism pathogenesis diagnosis treatment”, “development of tertiary hyperparathyroidism from secondary hyperparathyroidism”, “chronic vitamin D deficiency, hyperparathyroidism”, “early stages of chronic renal failure, hyperparathyroidism”. Also, search for the same keywords was completed in Russian data base Elibrary.Discussion. Both the lack of a common understanding of this problem, and the presence of diverse and contradictory data of the etiology and pathogenesis indicate the need for further study of tertiary hyperparathyroidism.

Abstract
PURPOSE Parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentrations are routinely measured in the diagnosis and management of bone and kidney diseases, but reference ranges can be overestimated if determined in otherwise healthy individuals for whom vitamin D deficiency was not evaluated. We establish PTH reference ranges in apparently healthy, normocalcemic, normophosphatemic individuals categorized by 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) status using the Elecsys® PTH (cobas e 601) and Elecsys® Vitamin D total II electrochemiluminescence immunoassays (cobas e 411). METHODS This prospective, non-interventional study measured PTH in serum from 653 apparently healthy adults [56.7% female; 68.2% white/Caucasian; 28.6% African American; median age 44 years (range 21-83)] from three diverse geographic sites across the USA during summer and winter months. Subjects were classified by concomitant vitamin D sufficiency (≥ 30 ng/mL), insufficiency (> 20 to < 30 ng/mL) or deficiency (≤ 20 ng/mL). RESULTS In vitamin D sufficiency, median PTH was 31.9 pg/mL [range (2.5th-97.5th percentile) 17.9-58.6] compared with 35.5 pg/mL (17.0-60.4) for insufficiency, and 39.8 pg/mL (19.5-86.4) for deficiency. A significant inverse relationship was found between PTH and 25(OH)D (P < 0.001). After accounting for vitamin D, potential effects of race or season as covariates were relatively small or absent. CONCLUSIONS Upper reference limits (URL) for PTH in vitamin D sufficiency/insufficiency were similar and lower than current values. Clinically important PTH elevations were observed in vitamin D deficiency, where revised reference ranges with a higher URL may be appropriate. These data may help to distinguish vitamin D-related PTH elevations from other causes [e.g., primary (normocalcemic) or secondary hyperparathyroidism].

Abstract
BACKGROUND While the inverse relationship between serum ionized calcium (Ca2+) and PTH is well-established, the relationship between 25(OH)D and PTH showed conflicting results. The study aimed to evaluate the relative contributions of age, sex, serum Ca2+, ionized magnesium (Mg2+), 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D in regulating PTH secretion in healthy subjects. METHODS This is a secondary analysis of an observational study performed from March 2014 to July 2015 carried out in 2259 blood donors (1652 men and 607 women, age range 18-68 years). Subjects with parathyroid disorders and taking drugs that affect mineral metabolism were excluded. RESULTS Significant correlations [between Ca2+ and PTH (r = -0.223, p < 0.001), 25(OH)D and PTH (r = -0.178, p < 0.001) and between PTH and age (r = 0.322, p < 0.001)] were found. As a preliminary step to multivariate analysis, a regression tree analysis was performed using PTH as response variable and age, Ca2+, Mg2+, 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D and sex as explanatory variables to determine the effect of each covariate on the response variable. For subjects <38 years, 25(OH)D was the most important parameter in regulating PTH. For subjects ≥38 both 25(OH)D and Ca2+ levels regulated PTH secretion. Subjects with 25(OH)D < 13 ng/mL had average higher PTH; in this group only, subjects with Ca2+ ≥ 1.30 mmol/L had average lower PTH compared to subjects with Ca2+ < 1.30. The multivariate analysis showed that all variables had a significant effect (p < 0.001) on PTH. Anova Type III errors c indicated that 25(OH)D accounted for 32.1% of the total variance in PTH, Ca2+ accounted for 18% of the total variance, BMI for 14.3%, and 1,25(OH)2D for 11.1%. The remaining percentage was attributable to age and sex. This was confirmed by the regression tree approach, where 25(OH)D and Ca2+ accounted for the largest variation in the average levels of PTH. DISCUSSION Under stable conditions 25(OH)D plays a significant role in regulating PTH secretion. Under conditions of relative vitamin D sufficiency, Ca2+ also plays an important role.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines recommend targets based on multiples of the upper limit of normal (ULN) of parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentration. However, the ULN has not always been correctly established by manufacturers. While it is known that the ULN is supposed to be higher in African Americans than in Caucasians, it is largely unknown in Africans. METHODS We established the ULN of PTH concentration in a population of 240 healthy Ivorians using second- and third-generation PTH assays before and after supplementation with 100 000 IU of cholecalferol. We measured the levels of PTH, bone alkaline phosphatase, 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in 100 haemodialysed Ivorian patients. RESULTS The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in Ivory Coast is low. The ULN obtained using the third-generation PTH assay was similar to that obtained in Caucasians but was higher when PTH was measured using the second-generation PTH assay. According to the KDIGO guidelines, ∼20% of the haemodialysed patients were below twice the ULN and 30% were above nine times the ULN. Approximately 25% of the patients were even >12 times the ULN. We observed a discrepancy in the results between the two PTH assays (14%) that was relatively more important than what we observed from previous studies in Caucasians using the same strategy. CONCLUSIONS We found a low prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in a tropical country like Ivory Coast. We also established the PTH reference range, which could prove useful for the follow-up of haemodialysed patients, particularly for the large number of patients suffering from secondary hyperparathyroidism who are at high risk of adverse bone events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To define serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) reference values in carefully selected subjects following the recommended pre-analytical guidelines. SUBJECTS AND METHODS First, 676 adults who would be submitted to thyroidectomy were evaluated. Patients using interfering medications or with malabsorption syndrome, hypomagnesemia, hyper- or hypophosphatemia, hypo- or hypercalcemia, 25-hydroxyvitamin D < 30 ng/dL, estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, urinary calcium/creatinine ratio ≥ 0.25, thyroid dysfunction, parathyroid adenoma detected during surgery were excluded. The sample consisted of 312 subjects. RESULTS The median, minimum, maximum, and 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles of the PTH values obtained were 30, 7.2, 78, 10.1, and 52 pg/mL, respectively. Thus, the reference range was 10 to 52 pg/mL. PTH > 65 pg/mL, the upper limit of normal according to the manufacturer of the kit, was observed in only one subject (0.3%). Considering the upper limit proposed by the kit's manufacturer, 1/6 hypercalcemic patients and 4/8 normocalcemic patients with PHPT had normal PTH. Using the upper limit established in this study, only one normocalcemic patient had normal PTH. Thus, the sensitivity of PTH in detecting asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) using the values recommended by the kit and established in this study was 64% and 93%, respectively (50% versus 87.5% for normocalcemic PHPT). CONCLUSION The upper reference limit of PTH obtained for a rigorously selected sample was 20% lower than that provided by the assay, which increased its sensitivity in detecting PHPT.

Abstract
Vitamin D supplementation is often used in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, but the role of vitamin D has lately been questioned. We aimed to investigate the effect of 3 months of daily vitamin D3 supplementation (70 µg [2800 IU] vs. placebo) initiated in winter months on bone health. This study is a double-blinded placebo-controlled randomized trial. Bone health was assessed by bone turnover markers, DXA, HRpQCT, and QCT scans. The participants were 81 healthy postmenopausal women with low 25(OH)D (< 50 nmol/l) and high PTH levels (> 6.9 pmol/l) at screening. Vitamin D3 supplementation significantly increased levels of 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D by 59 nmol/l and 19 pmol/l, respectively, whereas PTH was reduced by 0.7 pmol/l (all p < 0.0001). Compared with placebo, vitamin D3 did not affect bone turnover markers, aBMD by DXA or trabecular bone score. Vitamin D3 increased trabecular vBMD (QCT scans) in the trochanter region (0.4 vs. - 0.7 g/cm3) and the femoral neck (2.1 vs. - 1.8 g/cm3) pall < 0.05. HRpQCT scans of the distal tibia showed reduced trabecular number (- 0.03 vs. 0.05 mm-1) and increased trabecular thickness (0.001 vs. - 0.005 mm), as well as an improved estimated bone strength as assessed by failure load (0.1 vs. - 0.1 kN), and stiffness (2.3 vs. - 3.1 kN/mm pall ≤ 0.01). Changes in 25(OH)D correlated significantly with changes in trabecular thickness, stiffness, and failure load. Three months of vitamin D3 supplementation improved bone strength and trabecular thickness in tibia, vBMD in the trochanter and femoral neck, but did not affect aBMD.

Abstract
Reference intervals are relied upon by clinicians when interpreting their patients' test results. Therefore, laboratorians directly contribute to patient care when they report accurate reference intervals. The traditional approach to establishing reference intervals is to perform a study on healthy volunteers. However, the practical aspects of the staff time and cost required to perform these studies make this approach difficult for clinical laboratories to routinely use. Indirect methods for deriving reference intervals, which utilise patient results stored in the laboratory's database, provide an alternative approach that is quick and inexpensive to perform. Additionally, because large amounts of patient data can be used, the approach can provide more detailed reference interval information when multiple partitions are required, such as with different age-groups. However, if the indirect approach is to be used to derive accurate reference intervals, several considerations need to be addressed. The laboratorian must assess whether the assay and patient population were stable over the study period, whether data 'clean-up' steps should be used prior to data analysis and, often, how the distribution of values from healthy individuals should be modelled. The assumptions and potential pitfalls of the particular indirect technique chosen for data analysis also need to be considered. A comprehensive understanding of all aspects of the indirect approach to establishing reference intervals allows the laboratorian to harness the power of the data stored in their laboratory database and ensure the reference intervals they report are accurate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Emerging evidence supports a positive, bidirectional and clinical relevant interaction between parathyroid hormone (PTH) and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS). A beneficial effect of the widely used RAAS inhibitors might include a PTH-lowering effect, as high PTH levels may be harmful to cardiovascular health. We aimed to investigate whether PTH levels are lowered by short-term treatment with an angiotensin 2 receptor blocker (valsartan) independently of coadministration of vitamin D3. Secondary end-points included effects on blood pressure, cardiac conduction and concentrations of renin and aldosterone. DESIGN AND METHODS In a double-blind placebo-controlled trial, we included 81 otherwise healthy postmenopausal women with high PTH levels (>6.9 pmol/L) and vitamin D insufficiency (25(OH)D < 50 nmol/L). Participants received 2 weeks of treatment with valsartan 80 mg/d, vitamin D3 70 μg/d, valsartan plus vitamin D3 or double placebo. RESULTS Valsartan treatment did not affect plasma PTH, although treatment reduced diastolic blood pressure (P = .01) and the aldosterone/renin ratio (P < .001). We found no associations between calciotropic hormones and RAAS markers. Vitamin D3 supplementation reduced PTH by 3.4% (25th, 75th -9.0 to 8.7) compared to a 7.1% increase (25th, 75th -2.4 to 30.9) in the placebo group (P = .01), but did not affect blood pressure, cardiac conduction or concentrations of renin and aldosterone. CONCLUSIONS Independently of vitamin D3, short-term valsartan treatment did not reduce PTH. Vitamin D3 reduced PTH but did not affect blood pressure, cardiac conduction or the RAAS. The study does not support a direct association between PTH and aldosterone or a blood pressure-lowering effect of vitamin D3.

Abstract
Vitamin D is recognized to play an essential role in health and disease. In kidney disease, vitamin D analogs have gained recognition for their involvement and potential therapeutic importance. Nephrologists are aware of the use of oral native vitamin D supplementation, however, uncertainty still exists with regard to the use of this treatment option in chronic kidney disease as well as clinical settings related to chronic kidney disease, where vitamin D supplementation may be an appropriate therapeutic choice. Two consecutive meetings were held in Florence in July and November 2016 comprising six experts in kidney disease (N = 3) and bone mineral metabolism (N = 3) to discuss a range of unresolved issues related to the use of cholecalciferol in chronic kidney disease. The panel focused on the following six key areas where issues relating to the use of oral vitamin D remain controversial: (1) vitamin D and parathyroid hormone levels in the general population, (2) cholecalciferol in chronic kidney disease, (3) vitamin D in cardiovascular disease, (4) vitamin D and renal bone disease, (5) vitamin D in rheumatological diseases affecting the kidney, (6) vitamin D and kidney transplantation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Age-related changes in parathyroid hormone (PTH) have been previously documented in adults. However, because of the limitations of traditional approaches to establishing reference intervals, age-related reference intervals have not been defined. We sought to use a data mining approach to derive age-related PTH reference intervals. DESIGN AND PARTICIPANTS Results from patients undergoing PTH testing over a 4-year period were extracted from the database of a private pathology laboratory in New South Wales, Australia. Patients were included in the study if they were 18 years or older and had simultaneous determination of PTH, serum calcium, estimated glomerular filtration rate and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD). Patients with abnormalities of serum calcium or renal function were excluded. MEASUREMENTS Bhattacharya analysis of log-transformed data was used to derive age-related PTH reference intervals across adulthood. RESULTS Results were available for 33 652 subjects. Among patients with optimal 25-OHD status, older age was associated with higher PTH concentrations. Age-related reference intervals were derived and showed a 63% increase in the upper and lower reference limits between the youngest (18-29 years of age) and the oldest (80 years of age or older) age partitions. The appropriateness of using a single reference interval for patients of all ages was evaluated against objective criteria and was found to be unsatisfactory. CONCLUSIONS Data mining was demonstrated to be a useful tool for establishing age-related PTH reference intervals. The technique demonstrated that increasing age is associated with higher PTH concentrations and that age-related reference intervals are important for accurate result interpretation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) is commonly used to define vitamin D status, there is no consensus on the cutoff levels for vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency. In this study, we aimed to identify the 25(OH)D threshold that maximally suppressed parathyroid hormone (PTH) in Hong Kong Chinese population. METHODS The study included 5276 participants (70% female) of the Hong Kong Osteoporosis Study aged 20 or above who had total 25(OH)D measured. Three-phase segmented regression was used to identify the optimal break-point between 25(OH)D and PTH. RESULTS The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency observed was 43.8% and the prevalence of insufficient (<75nmol/L) or deficient (<50nmol/L) vitamin D levels was 90.1% in our study population. Using unadjusted three-phase segmented regression, the estimated first and second break-point of 25(OH)D on PTH suppression were 32nmol/L (95% CI: 29-35) and 89nmol/L (95% CI: 77-101) with an r2 of 0.048, whereas the estimated first and second break-point of 25(OH)D were 27nmol/L (95% CI: 24-30) and 47nmol/L (95% CI: 37-56) after adjusting for factors affecting bone and mineral metabolism. In addition, the relationship between 25(OH)D and PTH significantly differed by sex and age. CONCLUSION The threshold for 25OHD at the point of maximal suppression of PTH estimated in this study was lower than the suggested threshold of vitamin D deficiency in the literature, perhaps due to race or assay differences, and the relationship between vitamin D and PTH changed with sex and age. Standardization in the methodology of searching for the optimal break-point is desirable so that a consensus on cutoff points can be obtained.

Abstract
Well-validated reference values are necessary for a correct interpretation of a serum PTH concentration. Establishing PTH reference values needs recruiting a large reference population. Exclusion criteria for this population can be defined as any situation possibly inducing an increase or a decrease in PTH concentration. As recommended in the recent guidelines on the diagnosis and management of asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism, PTH reference values should be established in vitamin D-replete subjects with a normal renal function with possible stratification according to various factors such as age, gender, menopausal status, body mass index, and race. A consensus about analytical/pre-analytical aspects of PTH measurement is also needed with special emphasis on the nature of the sample (plasma or serum), the time and the fasting/non-fasting status of the blood sample. Our opinion is that blood sample for PTH measurement should be obtained in the morning after an overnight fast. Furthermore, despite longer stability of the PTH molecule in EDTA plasma, we prefer serum as it allows to measure calcium, a prerequisite for a correct interpretation of a PTH concentration, on the same sample. Once a consensus is reached, we believe an important international multicentre work should be performed to recruit a very extensive reference population of apparently healthy vitamin D-replete subjects with a normal renal function in order to establish the PTH normative data. Due to the huge inter-method variability in PTH measurement, a sufficient quantity of blood sample should be obtained to allow measurement with as many PTH kits as possible.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vitamin D insufficiency, defined by a 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) serum concentration<20ng/mL, is highly frequent in the French general population, especially between November and April. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether 80,000 IU vitamin D3 every month during this period of the year was able to maintain a 25OHD level between 20 and 60ng/mL in apparently healthy subjects whatever their basal vitamin D status. METHODS Ninety-eight subjects volunteered to receive an 80,000 IU vitamin D3 dose every month between November 2014 and April 2015. Serum 25OHD, calcemia and calciuria were measured just before the first dose (Month 0), just before the 4th dose (M4), and one month after the 6th dose (M7). RESULTS At M0, 25OHD was 17.5±9.5ng/mL. Sixty subjects (61.2%) had a 25OHD<20ng/mL and 25 (25.5%) had a 25OHD<10ng/mL. 25OHD increased significantly at M4 (35.3±8.0ng/mL) and M7 (40.1±8.5) without change in calcemia and calciuria. At M4, 2 subjects had a 25OHD slightly below 20ng/mL (17.6 and 19.7ng/mL), and none had a concentration>60ng/mL. At M7, all had a serum 25OHD>20ng/mL and 2 subjects had a value slightly above 60ng/mL (62.1 and 63.2ng/mL). CONCLUSION A monthly supplementation with 80,000 IU vitamin D3 between November and April corrected vitamin D insufficiency in subjects in whom it was initially very frequent, without overdosing. This protocol is simple, safe and costless, and can be easily implemented when physicians detect risk factors for hypovitaminosis D in patients for whom a 25OHD measurement is not indicated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 25 (OH) vitamin D3 (25(OH)D) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) are important regulators of calcium homeostasis. The aim of this study was to retrospectively determine the cut-off for sufficient 25(OH)D in a four-season region and the influence of age, seasons, and gender on serum 25(OH)D and PTH levels. METHODS Laboratory results of 9890 female and 2723 male individuals aged 38.8±22.1 years who had simultaneous measurements of 25(OH)D and PTH were retrospectively analyzed by statistical softwares. Serum 25(OH)D and PTH levels were measured by a mass spectrometry method and by an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay, respectively. RESULTS Mean serum 25(OH)D levels showed a sinusoidal fluctuation throughout the year and were significantly (p<0.01) higher in summer and autumn. On the other hand, PTH levels were significantly higher (p<0.01) in women and showed an opposite response to seasonal effects relative to 25(OH)D. Lowest levels of 25(OH)D were detected in people aged between 20 and 40 years whereas PTH hormone levels were gradually increasing in response to aging. The significant exponential inverse relationship that was found between PTH and 25(OH)D (PTH=exp(4.12-0.064*sqrt(25(OH)D)) (r=-0.325, R- squared=0.105, p<0.001)) suggested that the cut-off for sufficient 25(OH)D should be 75 nmol/L. CONCLUSIONS Our retrospective study based on large data set supports the suitability of the currently accepted clinical cut-off of 75 nmol/L for sufficient 25(OH)D. However, the issue of assessing Vitamin D deficiency remains difficult due to seasonal variations in serum 25(OH)D. Therefore, PTH measurements should complement 25(OH)D results for diagnosing Vitamin D deficiency. It is imperative that seasonally different criteria should be considered in future.

Parathyroid hormone reflects adiposity and cardiometabolic indices but not bone density in normal men. BONEKEY REPORTS 2016; 5:852. [PMID: 28018585 DOI: 10.1038/bonekey.2016.85] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2016] [Accepted: 11/02/2016] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Hyperparathyroidism may be associated with skeletal and cardiovascular abnormalities, but it is unclear whether these associations exist for high-normal levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH). We assessed relationships between PTH and anthropometric, skeletal and cardiometabolic indices in normal men. Body composition, blood pressure, biochemistry and bone mineral density (BMD) were evaluated in 151 healthy men. BMD was reassessed at 2 years, and coronary artery calcium (CAC) was measured at 3.5 years. Relationships between PTH and other baseline characteristics, CAC scores and change in BMD were evaluated. PTH correlated positively with baseline body mass index, fat mass, diastolic blood pressure, triglycerides, total and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, (r=0.19-0.25, P=0.02-0.002), and with category of CAC score. Relationships between PTH and cardiometabolic indices remained significant after adjustment for age, 25-hydroxyvitamin D and estimated glomerular filteration rate. Men in the top PTH tertile (⩾4.4 pmol l-1, n=51) were more likely to have LDL cholesterol ⩾3.5 mmol l-1, diastolic blood pressure ⩾85 mm Hg, and CAC score >0 than men in lower tertiles. PTH was not associated with history of fracture, baseline BMD, or change in BMD over 2 years. In summary, in this cohort of healthy men, PTH levels are linearly related to adiposity and to cardiometabolic indices, but not to BMD or bone loss. These findings suggest that adiposity should be considered as an independent cause of secondary hyperparathyroidism, and they may be relevant to patients with normocalcemic hyperparathyroidism, in whom high PTH levels may be a marker of adiposity and cardiometabolic risk rather than always indicating parathyroid autonomy.

Abstract
The U.S. Institute of Medicine considers that a serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) concentration >20 ng/mL corresponds to optimal vitamin D status in the general population. Old studies of vitamin D status in the French general population have demonstrated high prevalence of insufficiency. We measured serum 25OHD, 1,25(OH)2D, PTH, calcium, phosphorus, and creatinine levels in 892 French Caucasian healthy subjects (463 men, 429 women) aged from 18 to 89 years. The 25OHD concentration was similar in men (24.1 ± 8.2 ng/mL) and women (23.4 ± 8.0 ng/mL). 25OHD concentrations of <10, <12, <20, and <30 ng/mL were found in respectively 6.3, 9.9, 34.6, and 80.3 % of subjects. Residence in northern France (odds ratio [OR] 1.91), blood sampling between January and March (OR 7.74), BMI ≥24 kg/m(2) (OR 1.81), and age 60 years or more (OR 1.99) were significant determinants of hypovitaminosis D (25OHD <20 ng/mL). The serum 25OHD level correlated positively with 1,25(OH)2D and negatively with PTH. 25OHD values below 20 ng/mL were associated with lower 1,25(OH)2D levels, and 25OHD values below 27 ng/mL were associated with higher PTH levels. Many French healthy adults have a 25OHD concentration <20 ng/mL, especially during winter months. Actions to improve the vitamin D status of the French general population are urgently needed.

Establishment of a normal reference value of parathyroid hormone in a large healthy Chinese population and evaluation of its relation to bone turnover and bone mineral density. Osteoporos Int 2016; 27:1907-16. [PMID: 26733373 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-015-3475-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2015] [Accepted: 12/21/2015] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
UNLABELLED A normal reference value of parathyroid hormone (PTH) was established for the first time in a large sample of healthy Chinese subjects by completely excluding interference of vitamin D deficiency. A high PTH level correlated significantly with an elevated bone turnover and a reduced bone mineral density (BMD). INTRODUCTION The aims of this study are to establish a normal reference value for serum PTH and to evaluate the effect of parathyroid gland status on bone turnover and BMD. METHODS Our cross-sectional study included 1436 healthy individuals from 5 different Chinese cities. Concentrations of serum PTH, 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), procollagen I N-terminal peptide (P1NP, a bone formation marker), and carboxyl-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (β-CTX, a bone resorption marker) were measured by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The relation of PTH concentration to age, gender, height, and weight was examined. Reference values of PTH were established for all subjects and for subjects categorized by serum 25OHD concentrations. Correlations of PTH levels with bone turnover biomarkers and BMD were statistically analyzed. RESULTS Reference values of PTH were 8.84-69.95 pg/mL in all the subjects and 7.48-60.73 and 5.83-56.78 pg/mL in the subjects with serum 25OHD concentrations of ≥20 and ≥30 ng/mL, respectively. Serum PTH showed a negative linear correlation with 25OHD, and the breakpoint was 18.21 ng/mL, below which the PTH level rapidly increased. The increase in PTH levels with age showed a positive linear correlation with P1NP and β-CTX concentrations and a negative linear correlation with BMD at the lumbar spines and the femoral neck. CONCLUSIONS A reference value of PTH was established in a large sample of healthy Chinese subjects according to 25OHD status, gender, and age. A high PTH level correlated significantly with an elevated bone turnover and a reduced BMD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanistic hypotheses suggest that vitamin D may contribute to the prevention of breast cancer. However, epidemiologic evidence is inconsistent, suggesting a potential effect modification by individual factors. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to perform exploratory analyses on the prospective associations between the plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentration, polymorphisms of genes encoding for the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and vitamin D-binding protein (also known as gc-globulin or group-specific component, GC), and breast cancer risk, along with 2 potential modifiers: body mass index (BMI; in kg/m(2)) and alcohol intake. METHODS A nested case-control study was set up in the SUpplémentation en VItamines et Minéraux Anti-oXydants (SU.VI.MAX) cohort (1994-2007), involving 233 women with breast cancer and 466 matched controls (mean ± SD age: 49 ± 6 y). The plasma total 25(OH)D concentration and gene polymorphisms were assessed on samples obtained at baseline. Conditional logistic regression models were computed. RESULTS A higher plasma 25(OH)D concentration was associated with a decreased risk of breast cancer for women with a BMI < the median of 22.4 [OR quartile (Q)4 compared with Q1: 0.46; 95% CI: 0.23, 0.89; P-trend = 0.01, P-interaction = 0.002], whereas it was associated with an increased risk for women with a BMI ≥ the median (OR Q4 compared with Q1: 2.45; 95% CI: 1.13, 5.28; P-trend = 0.02, P-interaction = 0.002). A plasma 25(OH)D concentration ≥ 10 ng/mL was associated with a decreased risk of breast cancer for women with alcohol intakes ≥ the median of 7.1 g/d (OR ≥10 compared with <10 ng/mL: 0.50; 95% CI: 0.26, 0.95; P = 0.03, P-interaction = 0.03). The genetic analyses were consistent with the results observed with plasma 25(OH)D. CONCLUSION In this prospective study, BMI and alcohol intake modified the association between vitamin D [plasma 25(OH)D and vitamin D-related gene polymorphisms] and breast cancer risk. These effect modifications suggest explanations for discrepancies in results of previous studies. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00272428.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine parathyroid hormone (PTH) reference values in French healthy adults, taking into account serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), renal function, age, gender, and BMI. PARTICIPANTS AND MAIN BIOLOGICAL MEASUREMENTS We studied 898 healthy subjects (432 women) aged 18-89 years with a normal BMI and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), 81 patients with surgically proven primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), and 264 dialysis patients. 25OHD and third-generation PTH assays were implemented on the LIAISON XL platform. RESULTS Median PTH and 25OHD values in the 898 healthy subjects were 18.8 ng/l and 23.6 ng/ml respectively. PTH was lower in subjects with 25OHD ≥30 ng/ml than in those with lower values. Among the 183 subjects with 25OHD ≥30 ng/ml, those aged ≥60 years (n=31) had higher PTH values than younger subjects, independent of 25OHD, BMI, and eGFR (P<0.001). Given the small number of subjects aged ≥60 years, we adopted the 95% CI of PTH values for the entire group of 183 vitamin D-replete subjects (9.4-28.9 ng/l) as our reference values. With 28.9 ng/l as the upper limit of normal (ULN) rather than the manufacturer's ULN of 38.4 ng/l, the percentage of PHPT patients with 'high' PTH values rose to 90.1% from 66.6% (P<0.001), and 18.6% of the dialysis patients were classified differently in view of the KDIGO target range (two to nine times the ULN). CONCLUSION When only subjects with 25OHD ≥30 ng/ml were included in the reference population, the PTH ULN fell by 22.4%, diagnostic sensitivity for PHPT improved, and the classification of dialysis patients was modified.

Abstract
Vitamin D is essential regarding several health outcomes. Prevention of insufficiency (25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration ≤20 ng/mL) generally entails blood testing and/or supplementation, strategies that should target at-risk individuals because blood testing is costly, and unwarranted supplementation could result in vitamin D overload with unknown long-term consequences. Our objective was to develop a simple score (Vitamin D Insufficiency Prediction score, VDIP) for identifying adults at risk of vitamin D insufficiency. Subjects were 1557 non-vitamin D-supplemented middle-aged adults from the SU.VI.MAX cohort. Scoring points corresponded to the rounded odds ratio for each individual-level characteristic associated with vitamin D insufficiency in a multivariable logistic regression model. Receiver operating characteristic curve (area under curve), sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values were computed. External validation was performed in an independent cohort (NutriNet-Santé, N = 781). For female sex, overweight, low physical activity, winter season, moderate sun exposure, and very fair or dark skin 1.5 points were attributed; 2 points for latitude ≥48°N and spring season; 2.5 points for obesity and late winter; 3 points for low sun exposure. Points were then summed up for each participant. The VDIP score had an AUC = 0.70 ± 0.01 (validation: 0.67 ± 0.02). With a score of 7 or more, 70% of the participants were vitamin D-insufficient (80% in those with a score ≥9), sensitivity/specificity were 0.67/0.63, and positive and negative predictive values were 0.70/0.59. The VDIP score performed well in identifying middle-aged adults at risk of vitamin D insufficiency (score ≥7, moderate risk; score≥9, high risk), using only simple individual-level characteristics easily assessable in day-to-day clinical practice. Implementation of this simple and costless score could thus obviate unwarranted supplementation and/or blood testing.

Abstract
Mechanistic hypotheses suggest that vitamin D and the closely related parathyroid hormone (PTH) may be involved in prostate carcinogenesis. However, epidemiological evidence is lacking for PTH and inconsistent for vitamin D. Our objectives were to prospectively investigate the association between vitamin D status, vitamin D-related gene polymorphisms, PTH and prostate cancer risk. A total of 129 cases diagnosed within the Supplémentation en Vitamines et Minéraux Antioxydants cohort were included in a nested case-control study and matched to 167 controls (13 years of follow-up). 25-Hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and PTH concentrations were assessed from baseline plasma samples. Conditional logistic regression models were computed. Higher 25(OH)D concentration was associated with decreased risk of prostate cancer (ORQ4 v. Q1 0·30; 95 % CI 0·12, 0·77; P trend=0·007). PTH concentration was not associated with prostate cancer risk (P trend=0·4) neither did the studied vitamin D-related gene polymorphisms. In this prospective study, prostate cancer risk was inversely associated with 25(OH)D concentration but not with PTH concentration. These results bring a new contribution to the understanding of the relationship between vitamin D and prostate cancer, which deserves further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Experimental evidence has suggested that vitamin D may be protective against tobacco-related cancers through the inhibition of the formation of tumors induced by tobacco carcinogens. To our knowledge, only one previous epidemiologic study investigated the association between vitamin D status and tobacco-related cancer risk, and no study has focused on vitamin D-related gene polymorphisms. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to prospectively study the association between plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations, vitamin D-related gene polymorphisms, and risk of tobacco-related cancers. DESIGN A total of 209 tobacco-related cancers were diagnosed within the SU.VI.MAX (Supplémentation en vitamines et minéraux antioxydants) cohort (1994-2007) and were matched with 418 controls as part of a nested case-control study. Tobacco-related cancers (i.e., cancers for which tobacco is one of the risk factors) included several sites in the respiratory, digestive, reproductive, and urinary systems. Total plasma 25(OH)D was assessed with the use of an electrochemoluminescent assay. Polymorphisms were determined with the use of a TaqMan assay. Conditional logistic regression models were computed. RESULTS A 25(OH)D concentration ≥30 ng/mL was associated with reduced risk of tobacco-related cancers (OR for ≥30 compared with <30 ng/mL: 0.59; 95% CI 0.35, 0.99; P = 0.046). This association was observed in former and current smokers (OR for ≥30 compared with <30 ng/mL: 0.43; 95% CI: 0.23, 0.84; P = 0.01) but not in never smokers (P = 0.8). The vitamin D receptor (VDR) FokI AA genotype and retinoid X receptor (RXR) rs7861779 TT genotype were associated with increased risk of tobacco-related cancers [OR for homozygous mutant type (MT) compared with wild type (WT): 1.87; 95% CI: 1.08, 3.23; P-trend = 0.02; OR for heterozygous type (HT) plus MT compared with WT: 1.60; 95% CI: 1.07, 2.38; P = 0.02]. CONCLUSIONS In this prospective study, high vitamin D status [25(OH)D concentration ≥30 ng/mL] was associated with decreased risk of tobacco-related cancers, especially in smokers. These results, which are supported by mechanistic plausibility, suggest that vitamin D may contribute to the prevention of tobacco-induced cancers in smokers and deserve additional investigation. The SU.VI.MAX trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00272428.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is limited knowledge about the natural history of normocalcaemic, vitamin D-sufficient hyperparathyroidism (nHPT). The aim was to study the prevalence of nHPT and its relation to morbidity. DESIGN Cross-sectional and retrospective study at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Gothenburg, Sweden. SUBJECTS A random population of 608 men and women, age 25-64 years, was studied in 1995 as part of the WHO MONICA study and reinvestigated in 2008 (n = 410, of whom 277 were vitamin D sufficient). MEASUREMENTS A serum intact parathyroid hormone (S-PTH) ≥60 ng/l was considered as HPT, S-calcium 2·15-2·49 mmol/l as normocalcaemia and S-25(OH)D ≥ 50 nmol/l as vitamin D sufficiency. Data on fractures, stroke and myocardial infarction were retrieved until 2013, that is a 17-year follow-up. RESULTS The prevalence of nHPT was 2·0% in 1995 (age 25-64) and 11·0% in 2008 (age 38-79). S-PTH was positively correlated with age and BMI. After adjustment for these variables, a high S-PTH level (≥60 ng/l) at follow-up was associated with previously low S-25(OH)D, high osteocalcin, S-PTH and both past and presently treated hypertension. No relation was seen with creatinine, cystatin C, malabsorption markers, thyroid function, glucose, insulin, lipids, calcaneal quantitative ultrasound, fractures, myocardial infarction, stroke or death at follow-up. CONCLUSIONS This small random population study showed that nHPT was common, 11% at follow-up. Only one individual developed mild hypercalcaemia in 13 years. Previous S-PTH was predictive of nHPT and hypertension was prevalent, but no increase in hard end-points was seen over a 17-year period.

Abstract
Hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrine disorder with potential complications on the skeletal, renal, neurocognitive and cardiovascular systems. While most cases (95%) occur sporadically, about 5% are associated with a hereditary syndrome: multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes (MEN-1, MEN-2A, MEN-4), hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumour syndrome (HPT-JT), familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia (FHH-1, FHH-2, FHH-3), familial hypercalciuric hypercalcaemia, neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism and isolated familial hyperparathyroidism. Recently, molecular mechanisms underlying possible tumour suppressor genes (MEN1, CDC73/HRPT2, CDKIs, APC, SFRPs, GSK3β, RASSF1A, HIC1, RIZ1, WT1, CaSR, GNA11, AP2S1) and proto-oncogenes (CCND1/PRAD1, RET, ZFX, CTNNB1, EZH2) have been uncovered in the pathogenesis of hyperparathyroidism. While bi-allelic inactivation of CDC73/HRPT2 seems unique to parathyroid malignancy, aberrant activation of cyclin D1 and Wnt/β-catenin signalling has been reported in benign and malignant parathyroid tumours. Clinicopathological correlates of primary hyperparathyroidism include parathyroid adenoma (80-85%), hyperplasia (10-15%) and carcinoma (<1-5%). Secondary hyperparathyroidism generally presents with diffuse parathyroid hyperplasia, whereas tertiary hyperparathyroidism reflects the emergence of autonomous parathyroid hormone (PTH)-producing neoplasm(s) from secondary parathyroid hyperplasia. Surgical resection of abnormal parathyroid tissue remains the only curative treatment in primary hyperparathyroidism, and parathyroidectomy specimens are frequently encountered in this setting. Clinical and biochemical features, including intraoperative PTH levels, number, weight and size of the affected parathyroid gland(s), are crucial parameters to consider when rendering an accurate diagnosis of parathyroid proliferations. This review provides an update on the expanding knowledge of hyperparathyroidism and highlights the clinicopathological correlations of this prevalent disease.

Abstract
25-Hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) insufficiency is very common in many countries. Yet, the extent to which 25(OH)D status affects cognitive performance remains unclear. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the cross-time association between midlife plasma 25(OH)D concentrations and subsequent cognitive performance, using a subsample from the French 'SUpplémentation en Vitamines et Minéraux AntioXydants' randomised trial (SU.VI.MAX, 1994-2002) and the SU.VI.MAX 2 observational follow-up study (2007-9). 25(OH)D concentrations were measured in plasma samples drawn in 1994-5, using an electrochemoluminescent immunoassay. Cognitive performance was evaluated in 2007-9 with a neuropsychological battery including phonemic and semantic fluency tasks, the RI-48 (rappel indicé-48 items) cued recall test, the Trail Making Test and the forward and backward digit span. Cognitive factors were extracted via principal component analysis (PCA). Data from 1009 individuals, aged 45-60 years at baseline, with available 25(OH)D and cognitive measurements were analysed by multivariable linear regression models and ANCOVA, stratified by educational level. PCA yielded two factors, designated as 'verbal memory' (strongly correlated with the RI-48 and phonemic/semantic fluency tasks) and 'short-term/working memory' (strongly correlated with the digit span tasks). In the fully adjusted regression model, among individuals with low education, there was a positive association between 25(OH)D concentrations and the 'short-term/working memory' factor (P=0.02), mainly driven by the backward digit span (P=0.004). No association with either cognitive factor was found among better educated participants. In conclusion, higher midlife 25(OH)D concentrations were linked to better outcomes concerning short-term and working memory. However, these results were specific to subjects with low education, suggesting a modifying effect of cognitive reserve.

Abstract
Abstract: The successful surgical management of primary hyperparathyroidism requires a surgeon with a clear understanding of both the embryology and anatomy of the parathyroid glands. While the majority of patients may only have a single diseased gland, there is no 100% confirmation that can be attained in the preoperative period. For this reason, even when imaging is suggestive of a single diseased gland, additional intraoperative adjuncts should be used. Intraoperative parathyroid hormone monitoring is the most commonly used adjunct. When preoperative localization is not possible, or intraoperative parathyroid hormone levels fail to meet criteria for successful resection, the patient requires a four gland exploration. Cure is not confirmed until normocalcemia is documented for at least 6 months after surgery.

Abstract
AIM To asses liver markers in older patients with hip fracture (HF) in relation to age, comorbidities, metabolic characteristics and short-term outcomes. METHODS In 294 patients with HF (mean age 82.0±7.9 years, 72.1% women) serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), gammaglutamyltransferase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), albumin, bilirubin, 25(OH)vitaminD, PTH, calcium, phosphate, magnesium, adiponectin, leptin, resistin, thyroid function and cardiac troponin I were measured. RESULTS Elevated ALT, GGT, ALP or bilirubin levels on admission were observed in 1.7%-9.9% of patients. With age GGT, ALT and leptin decrease, while PTH and adiponectin concentrations increase. Higher GGT (>30 U/L, median level) was associated with coronary artery disease (CAD), diabetes mellitus (DM), and alcohol overuse; lower ALT (≤20 U/L, median level) with dementia; total bilirubin>20 μmol/L with CAD and alcohol overuse; and albumin>33 g/L with CAD. Multivariate adjusted regression analyses revealed ALT, ALP, adiponectin, alcohol overuse and DM as independent and significant determinants of GGT (as continuous or categorical variable); GGT for each other liver marker; and PTH for adiponectin. The risk of prolonged hospital stay (>20 days) was about two times higher in patients with GGT>30 U/L or adiponectin>17.14 ng/L (median level) and 4.7 times higher if both conditions coexisted. The risk of in-hospital death was 3 times higher if albumin was <33 g/L. CONCLUSIONS In older HF patients liver markers even within the normal range are associated with age-related disorders and outcomes. Adiponectin (but not 25(OH)vitaminD, PTH, leptin or resistin) is an independent contributor to higher GGT. Serum GGT and albumin predict prolonged hospital stay and in-hospital death, respectively. A unifying hypothesis of the findings presented.

Abstract
CONTEXT It is evident that about 30-50% of patients with Vitamin D deficiency (VDD) do not manifest develop secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). A number of theories have been proposed to explain this lack of SHPT, including hypomagnesemia. SETTINGS AND DESIGN Retrospective review of laboratory database. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated the differences in serum magnesium (Mg) levels among those with VDD with or without SHPT. A retrospective review of 6255 laboratory data of bone mineral profiles performed in the period of 2007-2013. After excluding patients with hypercalcemia, renal dysfunction/unknown kidney function and primary hypothyroidism, the remaining 1323 patient data were analyzed. SHPT was defined as serum parathyroid hormone >65 in those with VDD. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED ANOVA and Wilcoxon tests as appropriate to compare means. Multivariate logistic regression to analyze relation between variables and outcome of SHPT. RESULTS We noted that 55% patients (n = 727) had VDD, and among those who had VDD, 23% (n = 170) were hypocalcemic (corrected serum calcium <8.5). Patients with VDD who did not exhibit SHPT were 56% (n = 407). The mean (±standard deviation) serum Mg levels in the entire cohort (n = 1323) was 1.94 ± 0.26 mg/dl and 1.95 ± 0.26 mg/dl in VDD cohort and 2 ± 0.31 mg/dl in the VDD-hypocalcemic cohort. There was no statistical difference in the Mg levels among those with SHPT compared to those without SHPT (P = 0.14). Serum calcium and phosphorus were lower in those with SHPT (P = 0.06 and P < 0.001, respectively). In multivariate logistic regression, serum calcium (P = 0.043), phosphorus (P < 0.001) and severe VDD (P < 0.001) independently correlated with occurrence of SHPT in VDD. CONCLUSIONS Serum Mg levels did not explain the functional hypoparathyroidism seen in about half of the patients with VDD. A low normal serum calcium and phosphorus levels are more likely to be associated with VDD patients who develop SHPT.

Determinants of vitamin D status in Caucasian adults: influence of sun exposure, dietary intake, sociodemographic, lifestyle, anthropometric, and genetic factors. J Invest Dermatol 2014; 135:378-388. [PMID: 25211176 DOI: 10.1038/jid.2014.400] [Citation(s) in RCA: 105] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2014] [Revised: 08/26/2014] [Accepted: 08/29/2014] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Very few studies have investigated the determinants of serum vitamin D levels using a set of variables that include simultaneously sun exposure, phototype, dietary intake, sociodemographics, anthropometric, lifestyle data, and genetic polymorphisms. Our objective was to investigate the associations between all these parameters and vitamin D status in a large sample of French adults. This cross-sectional survey was based on 1,828 middle-aged Caucasian adults from the SU.VI.MAX (SUpplémentation en VItamines et Minéraux AntioXydants) study. Plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) concentration was lower among women (P<0.0001), older subjects (P=0.04), obese/underweight (P<0.0001), those living at higher latitudes (P<0.0001), those whose blood draw occurred in early spring (P<0.0001), less physically active (P<0.0001), with low sun exposure (P<0.0001), and with no-to-low alcohol intake (P=0.0001). Mutant GC rs4588 and rs7041 single nucleotide polymorphisms were associated with lower and higher 25OHD concentrations, respectively (P<0.0001). Dietary intake was not a major determinant of vitamin D status (P=0.7). This study provides an overall picture of determinants of vitamin D status. Several modifiable factors were identified, such as daily-life moderate sun exposure, physical activity, and normal-weight maintenance, which should be targeted by public health policies in order to improve vitamin D status in the general population, while avoiding active/intensive sun exposure, in line with recommendations for skin cancer prevention.
