Wang AYM, Tang TK, Yau YY, Lo WK. Impact of Parathyroidectomy Versus Oral Cinacalcet on Bone Mineral Density in Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis With Advanced Secondary Hyperparathyroidism: The PROCEED Pilot Randomized Trial. Am J Kidney Dis 2024; 83:456-466.e1. [PMID: 38040277 DOI: 10.1053/j.ajkd.2023.10.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 10/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Parathyroidectomy and calcimimetics have been used to reduce fracture risk in patients with kidney failure and advanced secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), but direct comparisons of these treatment approaches have not been implemented. This pilot study compared their effects on bone mineral density (BMD) in this patient population. STUDY DESIGN A prospective pilot open-label randomized trial. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS 65 patients receiving maintenance peritoneal dialysis with advanced SHPT recruited from 2 university-affiliated hospitals in Hong Kong. INTERVENTIONS Total parathyroidectomy with forearm autografting versus oral cinacalcet treatment for 12 months. OUTCOME Prespecified secondary end points including changes in BMD z and T scores of femoral neck, lumbar spine, and distal radius 12 months after treatment initiation and also categorized as osteopenia or osteoporosis according to the World Health Organization. RESULTS Both total parathyroidectomy and cinacalcet significantly improved BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck over 12 months, but the total parathyroidectomy group had a greater increase than the cinacalcet-treated group (P<0.001). The proportion of study participants classified as having osteopenia/osteoporosis by femoral neck T-score fell from 78.2% to 51.7% in the total parathyroidectomy group (P<0.001) and from 65.7% to 52.0% in cinacalcet-treated group after 12 months (P=0.7). The proportion of participants with a T-score at the lumbar spine classified as osteopenia/osteoporosis fell from 53.1% to 31.0% in the total parathyroidectomy group (P=0.01) and from 59.4% to 53.8% with cinacalcet (P=0.3). No significant change was observed in BMD T or z score of the distal radius over 12 months with either intervention. LIMITATIONS Bone histology was not assessed, and the study duration was 12 months. CONCLUSIONS A large proportion of peritoneal dialysis patients with advanced SHPT had low bone densities and osteopenia/osteoporosis. Total parathyroidectomy increased the BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck and reduced osteopenia/osteoporosis more than oral cinacalcet. FUNDING Grants from academic (The University of Hong Kong Research) and not-for-profit (Hong Kong Society of Nephrology) entities. REGISTRATION Registered at Clinicaltrials.gov with study number NCT01447368. PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARY It is not known whether oral cinacalcet and surgical parathyroidectomy differ in their effects on bone parameters in patients with advanced secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) receiving peritoneal dialysis. This pilot randomized trial evaluated the effect of medical versus surgical therapy on bone mineral densities (BMD) as prespecified secondary study end points. The findings showed that a large proportion of peritoneal dialysis patients with advanced SHPT had low bone densities and osteopenia/osteoporosis. Parathyroidectomy increased the BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck more than cinacalcet over 12 months. Parathyroidectomy reduced the proportion of patients with osteopenia/osteoporosis at the lumbar spine and femoral neck more than cinacalcet after 12 months. Neither intervention led to an increase in the BMD of the distal radius over 12 months.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Secondary hyperparathyroidism is associated with osteoporosis and fractures. Etelcalcetide is an intravenous calcimimetic for the control of hyperparathyroidism in patients on hemodialysis. Effects of etelcalcetide on the skeleton are unknown. METHODS In a single-arm, open-label, 36-week prospective trial, we hypothesized that etelcalcetide improves bone quality and strength without damaging bone-tissue quality. Participants were 18 years or older, on hemodialysis ≥1 year, without calcimimetic exposure within 12 weeks of enrollment. We measured pretreatment and post-treatment areal bone mineral density by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, central skeleton trabecular microarchitecture by trabecular bone score, and peripheral skeleton volumetric bone density, geometry, microarchitecture, and estimated strength by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography. Bone-tissue quality was assessed using quadruple-label bone biopsy in a subset of patients. Paired t tests were used in our analysis. RESULTS Twenty-two participants were enrolled; 13 completed follow-up (mean±SD age 51±14 years, 53% male, and 15% White). Five underwent bone biopsy (mean±SD age 52±16 years and 80% female). Over 36 weeks, parathyroid hormone levels declined 67%±9% ( P < 0.001); areal bone mineral density at the spine, femoral neck, and total hip increased 3%±1%, 7%±2%, and 3%±1%, respectively ( P < 0.05); spine trabecular bone score increased 10%±2% ( P < 0.001); and radius stiffness and failure load trended to a 7%±4% ( P = 0.05) and 6%±4% increase ( P = 0.06), respectively. Bone biopsy demonstrated a decreased bone formation rate (mean difference -25±4 µ m 3 / µ m 2 per year; P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Treatment with etelcalcetide for 36 weeks was associated with improvements in central skeleton areal bone mineral density and trabecular quality and lowered bone turnover without affecting bone material properties. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRY NAME AND REGISTRATION NUMBER The Effect of Etelcalcetide on CKD-MBD (Parsabiv-MBD), NCT03960437.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant public health concern associated with significant morbidity and has become one of the foremost global causes of death in recent years. A frequent comorbidity of CKD is secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), exemplified by high serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. The mineral metabolism disturbances resulting from CKD and progression to SHPT are currently considered part of the definition of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD). However, CKD-MBD does not only include abnormalities in laboratory-measured parameters; it is a complex condition characterized by dysregulation of bone turnover, mineralization, growth and strength, accompanied by vascular or another soft-tissue calcification. Together, this increases the risk of bone fractures, cardiovascular disease, and overall mortality in CKD-MBD patients. Monitoring serum markers is essential in diagnosing SHPT and CKD-MBD, and there are several recognized indicators for prognosis, optimal clinical management and treatment response in late-stage kidney disease patients receiving dialysis. However, far fewer markers have been established for patients with non-dialysis CKD. This review provides an overview of current and emerging markers and tools used in the diagnosis and management of CKD-MBD in non-dialysis adult patients.

Comprehensive Associations between Acidosis and the Skeleton in Patients with Kidney Disease. J Am Soc Nephrol 2023; 34:668-681. [PMID: 36749125 PMCID: PMC10103353 DOI: 10.1681/asn.0000000000000085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) contributes substantially to morbidity in CKD, including increased fracture risk. Metabolic acidosis (MA) contributes to the development of ROD, but an up-to-date skeletal phenotype in CKD-associated acidosis has not been described. We comprehensively studied associations between acidosis and bone in patients with CKD using advanced methods to image the skeleton and analyze bone-tissue, along with biochemical testing. Cross-sectionally, acidosis was associated with higher markers of bone remodeling and female-specific impairments in cortical and trabecular bone quality. Prospectively, acidosis was associated with cortical expansion and trabecular microarchitectural deterioration. At the bone-tissue level, acidosis was associated with deficits in bone mineral content. Future work investigating acidosis correction on bone quality is warranted. BACKGROUND Renal osteodystrophy is a state of impaired bone quality and strength. Metabolic acidosis (MA) is associated with alterations in bone quality including remodeling, microarchitecture, and mineralization. No studies in patients with CKD have provided a comprehensive multimodal skeletal phenotype of MA. We aim to describe the structure and makeup of bone in patients with MA in the setting of CKD using biochemistry, noninvasive imaging, and histomorphometry. METHODS The retrospective cross-sectional analyses included 180 patients with CKD. MA was defined as bicarbonate ≤22 mEq/L. We evaluated circulating bone turnover markers and skeletal imaging with dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and high-resolution peripheral computed tomography. A subset of 54 participants had follow-up. We assessed associations between baseline and change in bicarbonate with change in bone outcomes. Histomorphometry, microCT, and quantitative backscatter electron microscopy assessed bone biopsy outcomes in 22 participants. RESULTS The mean age was 68±10 years, 54% of participants were male, and 55% were White. At baseline, acidotic subjects had higher markers of bone turnover, lower areal bone mineral density at the radius by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry, and lower cortical and trabecular volumetric bone mineral density and impaired trabecular microarchitecture. Over time, acidosis was associated with opposing cortical and trabecular effects: cortical expansion but trabecular deterioration. Bone-tissue analyses showed reduced tissue mineral density with increased heterogeneity of calcium distribution in acidotic participants. CONCLUSIONS MA is associated with multiple impairments in bone quality. Future work should examine whether correction of acidosis improves bone quality and strength in patients with CKD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Due to a lack of spatial-temporal resolution at the single cell level, the etiologies of the bone dysfunction caused by diseases such as normal aging, osteoporosis, and the metabolic bone disease associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) remain largely unknown. METHODS To this end, flow cytometry and scRNAseq were performed on long bone cells from Sost-cre/Ai9+ mice, and pure osteolineage transcriptomes were identified, including novel osteocyte-specific gene sets. RESULTS Clustering analysis isolated osteoblast precursors that expressed Tnc, Mmp13, and Spp1, and a mature osteoblast population defined by Smpd3, Col1a1, and Col11a1. Osteocytes were demarcated by Cd109, Ptprz1, Ramp1, Bambi, Adamts14, Spns2, Bmp2, WasI, and Phex. We validated our in vivo scRNAseq using integrative in vitro promoter occupancy via ATACseq coupled with transcriptomic analyses of a conditional, temporally differentiated MSC cell line. Further, trajectory analyses predicted osteoblast-to-osteocyte transitions via defined pathways associated with a distinct metabolic shift as determined by single-cell flux estimation analysis (scFEA). Using the adenine mouse model of CKD, at a time point prior to major skeletal alterations, we found that gene expression within all stages of the osteolineage was disturbed. CONCLUSION In sum, distinct populations of osteoblasts/osteocytes were defined at the single cell level. Using this roadmap of gene assembly, we demonstrated unrealized molecular defects across multiple bone cell populations in a mouse model of CKD, and our collective results suggest a potentially earlier and more broad bone pathology in this disease than previously recognized.

Abstract
Bone turnover markers (BTMs) are used widely, in both research and clinical practice. In the last 20 years, much experience has been gained in measurement and interpretation of these markers, which include commonly used bone formation markers bone alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and procollagen I N-propeptide; and commonly used resorption markers serum C-telopeptides of type I collagen, urinary N-telopeptides of type I collagen and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase type 5b. BTMs are usually measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or automated immunoassay. Sources contributing to BTM variability include uncontrollable components (e.g., age, gender, ethnicity) and controllable components, particularly relating to collection conditions (e.g., fasting/feeding state, and timing relative to circadian rhythms, menstrual cycling, and exercise). Pregnancy, season, drugs, and recent fracture(s) can also affect BTMs. BTMs correlate with other methods of assessing bone turnover, such as bone biopsies and radiotracer kinetics; and can usefully contribute to diagnosis and management of several diseases such as osteoporosis, osteomalacia, Paget's disease, fibrous dysplasia, hypophosphatasia, primary hyperparathyroidism, and chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder.

Abstract
Diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) consistently rank among the top ten conditions in prevalence and mortality in the United States. Insulin-dependent diabetes (IDD) and CKD each increase the risk of skeletal fractures and fracture-related mortality. However, it remains unknown whether these conditions have interactive end-organ effects on the skeleton. We hypothesized that combining IDD and CKD in mice would cause structural and mechanical bone alterations that are more deleterious compared to the single disease states. Female C57BL6/J mice were divided into four groups: 1) N = 12 Control (CTRL), 2) N = 10 Streptozotocin-induced IDD (STZ), 3) N = 10 Adenine diet-induced CKD (AD), and 4) N = 9 Combination (STZ+AD). STZ administration resulted in significantly higher blood glucose, HbA1c (p < 0.0001), and glucose intolerance (p < 0.0001). AD resulted in higher blood urea nitrogen (p = 0.0002) while AD, but not STZ+AD mice, had high serum parathyroid hormone (p < 0.0001) and phosphorus (p = 0.0005). STZ lowered bone turnover (p = 0.001). Trabecular bone volume was lowered by STZ (p < 0.0001) and increased by AD (p = 0.003). Tissue mineral density was lowered by STZ (p < 0.0001) and AD (p = 0.02) in trabecular bone but only lowered by STZ in cortical bone (p = 0.002). Cortical porosity of the proximal tibia was increased by AD, moment of inertia was lower in both disease groups, and most cortical properties were lower in all groups vs CTRL. Ultimate force, stiffness, toughness, and total displacement/strain were lowered by STZ and AD. Fracture toughness was lower by AD (p = 0.003). Importantly, Cohen's D indicated that STZ+AD most strongly lowered bone turnover and mechanical properties. Taken together, structural and material-level bone properties are altered by STZ and AD while their combination resulted in greater detriments, indicating that improving bone health in the combined disease state may require novel interventions.

Abstract
Patients with CKD have a 4-fivefold higher rate of fractures. The incidence of fractures increases with deterioration of kidney function. The process of skeletal changes in CKD patients is characterized by compromised bone strength because of deterioration of bone quantity and/or quality. The fractures lead to a deleterious effect on the quality of life and higher mortality in patients with CKD. The pathogenesis of bone loss and fracture is complex and multi-factorial. Renal osteodystrophy, uremic milieu, drugs, and systemic diseases that lead to renal failure all contribute to bone damage in CKD patients. There is no consensus on the optimal diagnostic method of compromised bone assessment in patients with CKD. Bone quantity and mass can be assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or quantitative computed tomography (QCT). Bone quality on the other side can be assessed by non-invasive methods such as trabecular bone score (TBS), high-resolution bone imaging methods, and invasive bone biopsy. Bone turnover markers can reflect bone remodeling, but some of them are retained by kidneys. Understanding the mechanism of bone loss is pivotal in preventing fracture in patients with CKD. Several non-pharmacological and therapeutic interventions have been reported to improve bone health. Controlling laboratory abnormalities of CKD-MBD is crucial. Anti-resorptive therapies are effective in improving BMD and reducing fracture risk, but there are uncertainties about safety and efficacy especially in advanced CKD patients. Accepting the prevalent of low bone turnover in patients with advanced CKD, the osteo-anabolics are possibly promising. Parathyroidectomy should be considered a last resort for intractable cases of renal hyperparathyroidism. There is a wide unacceptable gap in osteoporosis management in patients with CKD. This article is focusing on the updated management of CKD-MBD and osteoporosis in CKD patients. Chronic kidney disease deteriorates bone quality and quantity. The mechanism of bone loss mainly determines pharmacological treatment. DXA and QCT provide information about bone quantity, but assessing bone quality, by TBS, high-resolution bone imaging, invasive bone biopsy, and bone turnover markers, can guide us about the mechanism of bone loss.

High phosphate intake induces bone loss in nephrectomized thalassemic mice. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0268732.

Abstract
Although patients with either β-thalassemia or chronic kidney disease (CKD) clinically correlate with severe osteoporosis, the mechanism by which CKD exposed to high phosphate affects bone turnover has not been characterized in β-thalassemia. We aimed to determine the effects of renal insufficiency on high phosphate intake induced changes in bone metabolism after 5/6th nephrectomy in hemizygous β-globin knockout (BKO) mice. Male BKO mice manifested severe anemia and osteopenia. Nephrectomy induced renal fibrosis and reduced renal function as assessed by increased serum urea nitrogen levels. Moreover, nephrectomy increased bone turnover leading to bone loss in wild type (WT) but not BKO mice. In nephrectomized BKO, PBS in drinking water induced hyperphosphatemia, and hypercalcemia along with osteopenia in both cancellous and cortical bone. Histomorphometric analysis confirmed reduced cancellous bone volume due to decreased bone formation rate, osteoblast number and osteoclast number. The mRNA levels for Alpl, Sp7, Kl, Tnfsf11, and Tnfsf11/Tnfrsf11b were decreased in nephrectomized BKO mice drinking PBS. Interestingly, Fgf23, a bone-derived hormone produced by osteocytes and osteoblasts in response to hyperphosphatemia, were remarkably increased in nephrectomized BKO mice following PBS intake. Serum FGF23 and erythropoietin levels were markedly elevated in BKO mice. Nephrectomy decreased serum erythropoietin but not FGF23 levels. Hyperphosphatemia in BKO mice increased serum erythropoietin, FGF23, and PTH levels, nominating these factors as candidate mediators of bone loss in thalassemic mice with CKD during phosphate retention.

Abstract
Background Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) and bone turnover markers (BTMs) predict fractures in the general population. However, the role of FRAX and BTMs in predicting mortality remains uncertain in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods One hundred and sixty-four HD patients stratified by low or high risk of 10-year fracture probability using FRAX. High risk of fracture was defined as 10-year probability of hip fracture ≥3% or major osteoporotic fracture ≥20%. The association of high risk of fracture and BTMs with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular (CV) mortality were evaluated using multivariate-adjusted Cox regression analysis. Results Eighty-five (51.8%) patients were classified as high risk of fracture based on FRAX among 164 HD patients. During a mean follow-up period of 3.5 ± 1.0 years, there were 39 all-cause deaths and 23 CV deaths. In multivariate-adjusted Cox regression, high risk of fracture based on FRAX was independently associated with all-cause mortality [hazard ratio (HR): 2.493, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.026–6.056, p = 0.044) but not with CV mortality (HR: 2.129, 95% CI: 0.677–6.700, p = 0.196). There were no associations between BTMs and mortality risk. Furthermore, lower geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) was significantly associated with increased CV mortality (HR: 0.888, 95% CI: 0.802–0.983, p = 0.022) after adjusting by confounding variables. Conclusion High risk of fracture using FRAX was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality in patients undergoing HD. FRAX, rather than BTMs, has an important role of prognostic significance in HD patients.

Abstract
Fragility fracture is a worldwide problem and a main cause of disability and impaired quality of life. It is primarily caused by osteoporosis, characterized by impaired bone quantity and or quality. Proper diagnosis of osteoporosis is essential for prevention of fragility fractures. Osteoporosis can be primary in postmenopausal women because of estrogen deficiency. Secondary forms of osteoporosis are not uncommon in both men and women. Most systemic illnesses and organ dysfunction can lead to osteoporosis. The kidney plays a crucial role in maintaining physiological bone homeostasis by controlling minerals, electrolytes, acid-base, vitamin D and parathyroid function. Chronic kidney disease with its uremic milieu disturbs this balance, leading to renal osteodystrophy. Diabetes mellitus represents the most common secondary cause of osteoporosis. Thyroid and parathyroid disorders can dysregulate the osteoblast/osteoclast functions. Gastrointestinal disorders, malnutrition and malabsorption can result in mineral and vitamin D deficiencies and bone loss. Patients with chronic liver disease have a higher risk of fracture due to hepatic osteodystrophy. Proinflammatory cytokines in infectious, autoimmune, and hematological disorders can stimulate osteoclastogenesis, leading to osteoporosis. Moreover, drug-induced osteoporosis is not uncommon. In this review, we focus on causes, pathogenesis, and management of secondary osteoporosis.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a global public health problem, with fractures contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. Although postmenopausal osteoporosis is most common, up to 30% of postmenopausal women, > 50% of premenopausal women, and between 50% and 80% of men have secondary osteoporosis. Exclusion of secondary causes is important, as treatment of such patients often commences by treating the underlying condition. These are varied but often neglected, ranging from endocrine to chronic inflammatory and genetic conditions. General screening is recommended for all patients with osteoporosis, with advanced investigations reserved for premenopausal women and men aged < 50 years, for older patients in whom classical risk factors for osteoporosis are absent, and for all patients with the lowest bone mass (Z-score ≤ -2). The response of secondary osteoporosis to conventional anti-osteoporosis therapy may be inadequate if the underlying condition is unrecognized and untreated. Bone densitometry, using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, may underestimate fracture risk in some chronic diseases, including glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes, and obesity, and may overestimate fracture risk in others (eg, Turner syndrome). FRAX and trabecular bone score may provide additional information regarding fracture risk in secondary osteoporosis, but their use is limited to adults aged ≥ 40 years and ≥ 50 years, respectively. In addition, FRAX requires adjustment in some chronic conditions, such as glucocorticoid use, type 2 diabetes, and HIV. In most conditions, evidence for antiresorptive or anabolic therapy is limited to increases in bone mass. Current osteoporosis management guidelines also neglect secondary osteoporosis and these existing evidence gaps are discussed.

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

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is ample evidence that patients with CKD have an increased risk of osteoporotic fractures. Bone fragility is not only influenced by low bone volume and mass but also by poor microarchitecture and tissue quality. More emphasis has been given to the quantitative rather than qualitative assessment of bone health, both in general population and CKD patients. Although bone mineral density (BMD) is a very useful clinical tool in assessing bone strength, it may underestimate the fracture risk in CKD patients. Serum and urinary bone biomarkers have been found to be reflective of bone activities and predictive of fractures independently of BMD in CKD patients. Bone quality and fracture risk in CKD patients can be better assessed by utilizing new technologies such as trabecular bone score and high-resolution imaging studies. Additionally, invasive assessments such as bone histology and micro-indentation are useful counterparts in the evaluation of bone quality. SUMMARY A precise diagnosis of the underlying skeletal abnormalities in CKD patients is crucial to prevent further bone loss and fractures. We must consider bone quantity and quality abnormalities for management of CKD patients. Here in this part I, we are focusing on advances in bone quality diagnostics that are expected to help in proper understanding of the bone health in CKD patients. KEY MESSAGES Assessment of bone quality and quantity in CKD patients is essential. Both noninvasive and invasive techniques for the assessment of bone quality are available.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease is a health problem whose prevalence is increasing worldwide. The kidney plays an important role in the metabolism of minerals and bone health and therefore, even at the early stages of CKD, disturbances in bone metabolism are observed. In the course of CKD, various bone turnover or mineralization disturbances can develop including adynamic hyperparathyroid, mixed renal bone disease, osteomalacia. The increased risk of fragility fractures is present at any age in these patients. Nutritional treatment of patients with advanced stages of CKD is aiming at prevention or correction of signs, symptoms of renal failure, avoidance of protein-energy wasting (PEW), delaying or prevention of the occurrence of mineral/bone disturbances, and delaying the start of dialysis. The results of studies suggest that progressive protein restriction is beneficial with the progression of renal insufficiency; however, other aspects of dietary management of CKD patients, including changes in sodium, phosphorus, and energy intake, as well as the source of protein and lipids (animal or plant origin) should also be considered carefully. Energy intake must cover patients' energy requirement, in order to enable correct metabolic adaptation in the course of protein-restricted regimens and prevent negative nitrogen balance and protein-energy wasting.

Abnormal bone metabolism is an integral part of the chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD). For several reasons, the difficult bone compartment was neglected for some time, but there has been renewed interest as a result of the conception of bone as a new endocrine organ, the increasing recognition of the cross-talk between bone and vessels, and, especially, the very high risk of osteoporotic fractures (and associated mortality) demonstrated in patients with CKD. Therefore, it has been acknowledged in different guidelines that action is needed in respect of fracture risk assessment and the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis in the context of CKD and CKD-MBD, even beyond renal osteodystrophy. These updated guidelines clearly underline the need to improve a non-invasive approach to these bone disorders in order to guide treatment decisions aimed at not only controlling CKD-MBD but also decreasing the risk of fracture. In this report, we review the current role of the most often clinically used or promising biochemical circulating biomarkers such as parathyroid hormone, alkaline phosphatases, and other biochemical markers of bone activity as alternatives to some aspects of bone histomorphometry. We also mention the potential role of classic and new imaging techniques for CKD patients. Information on many aspects is still scarce and heterogeneous, but many of us consider that it is indeed time for action, recognizing our definitely limited ability to base certain treatment decisions only on our current non-comprehensive knowledge.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has a significant negative impact on bone health. However, the mechanisms of cortical bone deterioration and cortical porosity enlargement caused by CKD have not been fully described. We therefore examined the association of CKD stages with cortical porosity index (PI), and explored potential mediators of this association. Double-echo ultrashort echo-time magnetic resonance imaging (UTE MRI) provides the possibility of quantifying cortical porosity in vivo. A total of 95 patients with CKD stages 2-5 underwent 3D double-echo UTE-Cones MRI (3.0T) of the midshaft tibia to obtain the PI. PI was defined as the ratio of the image signal intensity of a sufficiently long echo time (TE) to the shortest achievable TE. Parathyroid hormone (PTH), β-CrossLaps (β-CTX), total procollagen type I amino-terminal propeptide (T-P1NP), osteocalcin (OC), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), and lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) were measured within one week of the MRI. Partial correlation analysis was performed to address associations between PI, eGFR and potential mediators (PTH, β-CTX, T-P1NP, OC, 25OHD, BMD, and T-score). Multiple linear regression models were used to assess the association between CKD stages and PI value. Then, a separate exploratory mediation analysis was carried out to explore the impact of CKD stages and mediators on the PI value. The increasing CKD stages were associated with a higher PI value (Ptrend < 0.001). The association of CKD stages and PI mediated 34.4% and 30.8% of the total effect by increased PTH and β-CTX, respectively. Our study provides a new idea to monitor bone health in patients with CKD, and reveals the internal mechanism of bone deterioration caused by CKD to some extent.

Natural history of mineral metabolism, bone turnover and bone mineral density in de novo renal transplant recipients treated with a steroid minimization immunosuppressive protocol. Nephrol Dial Transplant 2020; 35:697-705. [PMID: 30339234 DOI: 10.1093/ndt/gfy306] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2018] [Accepted: 08/15/2018] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The skeletal effects of renal transplantation are not completely understood, especially in patients managed with a steroid minimization immunosuppressive protocol and long term. We enrolled 69 adult transplant recipients (39 males; ages 51.1 ± 12.2 years), free of antiresorptive therapy and managed with a steroid minimization immunosuppressive protocol, into a 5-year prospective observational study to evaluate changes in areal bone mineral density (aBMD), mineral metabolism and bone remodelling. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, laboratory parameters of mineral metabolism (including parathyroid hormone, sclerostin and fibroblast growth factor 23) and non-renal cleared bone turnover markers (BTMs) (bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, trimeric N-terminal propeptide and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b) were assessed at baseline and 1 and 5 years post-transplantation. The mean cumulative methylprednisolone exposure at 1 and 5 years amounted to 2.5 ± 0.8 and 5.8 ± 3.3 g, respectively. Overall, bone remodelling activity decreased after transplantation. Post-transplant aBMD changes were minimal and were significant only in the ultradistal radius during the first post-operative year {median -2.2% [interquartile range (IQR) -5.9-1.2] decline, P = 0.01} and in the lumbar spine between Years 1 and 5 [median 1.6% (IQR -3.2-7.0) increase, P = 0.009]. BTMs, as opposed to mineral metabolism parameters and cumulative corticosteroid exposure, associated with aBMD changes, both in the early and late post-transplant period. Most notably, aBMD changes inversely associated with bone remodelling changes. In summary, in de novo renal transplant recipients treated with a steroid minimization immunosuppressive protocol, BMD changes are limited, highly variable and related to remodelling activity rather than corticosteroid exposure.

Prevalence of Vertebral Fractures and Their Prognostic Significance in the Survival in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease Stages 3‒5 Not on Dialysis. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9051604. [PMID: 32466297 PMCID: PMC7291319 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9051604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2020] [Revised: 05/12/2020] [Accepted: 05/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The prevalence of vertebral fractures (VF) and their association with clinical risk factors and outcomes are poorly documented in chronic kidney disease (CKD) cohorts. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of VF in patients with non-dialysis dependent CKD (NDD-CKD), their value in predicting mortality and its correlation with parameters of bone mineral metabolism and vascular calcification. Materials and Methods: 612 NDD 3‒5 stage CKD patients participating in the OSERCE-2 study, a prospective, multicenter, cohort study, were prospectively evaluated and categorized into two groups according to presence or absence of VF at enrollment. VF were assessed with lateral radiographs and Genant semi-quantitative method was applied. Three radiologists specialized in musculoskeletal radiology performed consensual reading of individual images obtained using a Raim DICOM Viewer and a Canon EOS 350 camera to measure with Java Image software in those who had traditional acetate X-ray. Factors related to VF were assessed by logistic regression analysis. Association between VF and death over a 3-year follow-up was assessed by Kaplan-Meier survival curves and Cox-proportional hazard models. Results: VF were detected in 110 patients (18%). Serum phosphate levels (OR 0.719, 95% CI 0.532 to 0.972, p = 0.032), ankle-brachial index < 0.9 (OR 1.694, 95% CI 1.056‒2.717, p = 0.029) and treatment with bisphosphonates (OR 5.636, 95% CI 1.876‒16.930, p = 0.002) were independently related to the presence of VF. After a median follow-up of 35 months (IQR: 17‒37 months), 62 patients (10%) died. The causes of death were cardiovascular (n = 21, 34%) and infectious (n = 11, 18%). In the crude analysis, fractured patients group had poorer survival (log-rank test, p = 0.02). After multivariate adjustment for age, MDRD, albumin, diabetes mellitus, comorbidity, Adragao Score > 3 and serum phosphate, the presence of VF (HR 1.983, 95% CI 1.009‒3.898, p = 0.047) were an independent predictor of all-cause mortality. Conclusions: In our study 18% of patients with NDD-CKD have VF. Factors associated with VF were age, low serum phosphate levels and peripheral vascular disease. The presence of VF was an independent risk factor for mortality in stages 3‒5 NDD-CKD patients. Clinical trials are needed to confirm whether this relationship is causal and reversible with treatment for osteoporosis.

Correlation between 18F-Sodium Fluoride positron emission tomography and bone histomorphometry in dialysis patients. Bone 2020; 134:115267.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of renal osteodystrophy is challenging. Bone biopsy is the gold standard, but it is invasive and limited to one site of the skeleton. The ability of biomarkers to estimate the underlying bone pathology is limited. 18F-Sodium Fluoride positron emission tomography (18F-NaF PET) is a noninvasive quantitative imaging technique that allows assessment of regional bone turnover at clinically relevant sites. The hypothesis of this study was, that 18F-NaF PET correlates with bone histomorphometry in dialysis patients and could act as a noninvasive diagnostic tool in this patient group. METHODS This was a cross-sectional diagnostic test study. 26 dialysis patients with biochemical abnormalities indicating mineral and bone disorder were included. All the participants underwent a 18F-NaF PET scan and a bone biopsy. Fluoride activity in the PET scan was measured in the lumbar spine and at the anterior iliac crest. Dynamic and static histomorphometric parameters of the bone biopsy were assessed. As histomorphometric markers for bone turnover we used bone formation rate per bone surface (BFR/BS) and activation frequency per year (Ac.f). RESULTS There was a statistically significant correlation between fluoride activity in the 18F-NaF PET scan and histomorphometric parameters such as bone formation rate, activation frequency and osteoclast and osteoblast surfaces and mineralized surfaces. 18F-NaF PET's sensitivity to recognize low turnover in respect to non-low turnover was 76% and specificity 78%. Because of the small number of patients with high turnover, we were unable to demonstrate significant predictive value in this group. CONCLUSIONS A clear correlation between histomorphometric parameters and fluoride activity in the 18F-NaF PET scan was established. 18F-NaF PET may possibly be a noninvasive diagnostic tool in dialysis patients with low turnover bone disease, but further research is needed.

A microRNA Approach to Discriminate Cortical Low Bone Turnover in Renal Osteodystrophy. JBMR Plus 2020; 4:e10353.

Abstract
A main obstacle to diagnose and manage renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is the identification of intracortical bone turnover type (low, normal, high). The gold standard, tetracycline‐labeled transiliac crest bone biopsy, is impractical to obtain in most patients. The Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes Guidelines recommend PTH and bone‐specific alkaline phosphatase (BSAP) for the diagnosis of turnover type. However, PTH and BSAP have insufficient diagnostic accuracy to differentiate low from non‐low turnover and were validated for trabecular turnover. We hypothesized that four circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) that regulate osteoblast (miRNA‐30b, 30c, 125b) and osteoclast development (miRNA‐155) would provide superior discrimination of low from non‐low turnover than biomarkers in clinical use. In 23 patients with CKD 3‐5D, we obtained tetracycline‐labeled transiliac crest bone biopsy and measured circulating levels of intact PTH, BSAP, and miRNA‐30b, 30c, 125b, and 155. Spearman correlations assessed relationships between miRNAs and histomorphometry and PTH and BSAP. Diagnostic test characteristics for discriminating low from non‐low intracortical turnover were determined by receiver operator curve analysis; areas under the curve (AUC) were compared by χ2 test. In CKD rat models of low and high turnover ROD, we performed histomorphometry and determined the expression of bone tissue miRNAs. Circulating miRNAs moderately correlated with bone formation rate and adjusted apposition rate at the endo‐ and intracortical envelopes (ρ = 0.43 to 0.51; p < 0.05). Discrimination of low versus non‐low turnover was 0.866, 0.813, 0.813, and 0.723 for miRNA‐30b, 30c, 125b, and 155, respectively, and 0.509 and 0.589 for PTH and BSAP, respectively. For all four miRNAs combined, the AUC was 0.929, which was superior to that of PTH and BSAP alone and together (p < 0.05). In CKD rats, bone tissue levels of the four miRNAs reflected the findings in human serum. These data suggest that a panel of circulating miRNAs provide accurate noninvasive identification of bone turnover in ROD. © 2020 The Authors.

N-acetylcysteine (NAC), an anti-oxidant, does not improve bone mechanical properties in a rat model of progressive chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0230379.

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

Abstract
Background. Our aim was to investigate the bone mineral density (BMD) evolution and incidence of osteoporosis in relation to chronic kidney disease (CKD) up to 10 years after heart transplantation (HT). Methods. A retrospective analysis was performed on 159 HT patients at Skåne University Hospital in Lund 1988–2016. Results. The median follow-up time was 6.1 years (interquartile range = 7.5 y). HT patients with CKD stage <3 or normal kidney function before HT exhibited a greater mean BMD loss in the lumbar spine, compared to patients with CKD stage ≥3 before HT, at the first (−6.6% versus −2.5%, P = 0.029), second (−3.7% versus 2.1%, P = 0.018), and third (−2.0% versus 4.1%, P = 0.047) postoperative years, respectively. All included HT patients exhibited a BMD loss in the femoral neck at the first postoperative year (−8.8% [−10.3 to −7.3] in patients with CKD stage <3 or normal kidney function and −9.3% [−13.2 to −5.5] in patients with CKD stage ≥3 before HT), which was not fully reversed up to 10 years after HT. In adjusted models, CKD stage <3 before HT did not predict osteopenia and osteoporosis in the lumbar spine or femoral neck. Conclusions. CKD before HT did not predict BMD loss or osteoporosis development after HT. The study is, however, limited by a lack of data on fractures, and further studies on the relationship between CKD and postoperative bone strength are encouraged.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has an important role in the maintenance of serum calcium levels. It activates renal 1α-hydroxylase and increases the synthesis of the active form of vitamin D (1,25[OH]2D3). PTH promotes calcium release from the bone and enhances tubular calcium resorption through direct action on these sites. Hallmarks of secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) include increase in serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23), reduction in renal 1,25[OH]2D3 production with a decline in its serum levels, decrease in intestinal calcium absorption, and, at later stages, hyperphosphatemia and high levels of PTH. In this paper, we aim to critically discuss severe CKD-related hyperparathyroidism, in which PTH, through calcium-dependent and -independent mechanisms, leads to harmful effects and manifestations of the uremic syndrome, such as bone loss, skin and soft tissue calcification, cardiomyopathy, immunodeficiency, impairment of erythropoiesis, increase of energy expenditure, and muscle weakness.

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
End stage renal disease (ESRD) is associated with sarcopenia and skeletal fragility. The objectives of this cross-sectional study were to (1) characterize body composition, bone mineral density (BMD) and bone structure in hemodialysis patients compared with controls, (2) assess whether DXA areal BMD (aBMD) correlates with peripheral quantitative CT (pQCT) measures of volumetric BMD (vBMD), cortical dimensions and MRI measures of trabecular microarchitecture, and (3) determine the magnitude of bone deficits in ESRD after adjustment for muscle mass. Thirty ESRD participants, ages 25 to 64 years, were compared with 403 controls for DXA and pQCT outcomes and 104 controls for MRI outcomes; results were expressed as race- and sex- specific Z-scores relative to age. DXA appendicular lean mass index (ALMI kg/m2) and total hip, femoral neck, ultradistal and 1/3rd radius aBMD were significantly lower in ESRD, vs. controls (all p < 0.01). pQCT trabecular vBMD (p < 0.01), cortical vBMD (p < 0.001) and cortical thickness (due to a greater endosteal circumference, p < 0.02) and MRI measures of trabecular number, trabecular thickness, and whole bone stiffness were lower (all p < 0.01) in ESRD, vs. controls. ALMI was positively associated with total hip, femoral neck, ultradistal radius and 1/3rd radius aBMD and with tibia cortical thickness (R = 0.46 to 0.64). Adjustment for ALMI significantly attenuated bone deficits at these sites: e.g. mean femoral neck aBMD was 0.79 SD lower in ESRD, compared with controls and this was attenuated to 0.33 with adjustment for ALMI. In multivariate models within the dialysis participants, pQCT trabecular vBMD and cortical area Z-scores were significant and independently (all p < 0.02) associated with DXA femoral neck, total hip, and ultradistal radius aBMD Z-scores. Cortical vBMD (p = 0.01) and cortical area (p < 0.001) Z-scores were significantly and independently associated with 1/3rd radius areal aBMD Z-scores (R2 = 0.62). These data demonstrate that DXA aBMD captures deficits in trabecular and cortical vBMD and cortical area. The strong associations with ALMI, as an index of skeletal muscle, highlight the importance of considering the role of sarcopenia in skeletal fragility in patients with ESRD.

Abstract
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with numerous complications such as bone mineral disorder. The aim of our study was to analyze the correlation of bone turnover markers with Bone Mineral Density (BMD) measurements in Tunisian end stage renal diseases (ESRD) patients. Methods This study included 100 ESRD Tunisian patients. Their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was < 15 mL × min-1 × (1.73 m2)-1, which requires hemodialysis. Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP) serum concentration was determined with a chemiluminescence immunoassay. Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) serum was assessed by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay method. The serum levels of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and Beta cross-laps (CTX) was measured by Electrochemiluminescence Technology. DEXA (dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry) technique was used to evaluate BMD. Results We observed a statistically significant negative correlation between BALP levels and total body BMD (r = -0.268; P = 0.015) particularly in femoral neck (FN) (r = -0.219; P = 0.037). BALP concentrations were negatively associated with total BMD especially in FN for patients with BMI < 30, FGF23 concentrations were also negatively correlated with BMD in lumbar spine site (LS) (r = -0.209; P = 0.046). For osteopenic patients we found an inverse correlation between 25(OH)D concentrations and BMD in LS position (r = -0.336; P = 0.038). In men group, we have also found a negative correlation between iPTH and total BMD (r = -0.326; P = 0.015). However we found a positive correlation between calcium expression and BMD in LS site (r = 0.270; P = 0.031). Conclusions FGF23 and BALP can predict bone loss in ESRD through their strong correlation with BMD in LS and FN sites respectively.

Abstract
The metabolic abnormalities affecting bone in the setting of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are complex with overlapping and interacting aetiologies and have challenging diagnostic and management strategies. Disturbances in calcium, phosphate, fibroblast growth factor 23, parathyroid hormone concentrations and vitamin D deficiency are commonly encountered and contribute to the clinical syndromes of bone disorders in CKD, including hyperparathyroidism, osteomalacia, osteoporosis and adynamic bone disease. Mineral and bone abnormalities may also persist or arise de novo post-renal transplantation. The Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes organisation describes these mineral metabolism derangements and skeletal abnormalities as 'CKD Mineral and Bone Disorder'. Patients with this disorder have an increased risk of fracture, cardiovascular events and overall increased mortality. In light of the recently updated 2017 guidelines from the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes, we present a clinical case-based discussion to highlight the complexities of investigating and managing the bone health of patients with CKD with a focus on these updates.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Although chronic kidney disease is associated with other bone disorders, osteoporosis can be found in this context, and it is defined based on bone mineral density (BMD), measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. As CKD progresses, the percentage of normal BMD decreases, whereas that of osteopenia/osteoporosis increases, mostly due to hip involvement, particularly in patients with reduced renal function. INTRODUCTION Osteoporosis is a highly prevalent disease in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We investigated the features of bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with assorted kidney diseases and hypothesized that low BMD, as measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), would be more prevalent as kidney function decreased and would correlate with biomarkers of mineral and bone disease. METHODS DXA obtained from January 1, 2008, to December 31, 2017, clinical, demographic, and biochemical data at the time of image acquisition were recorded. Data from 1172 patients were included in this study (81.3% women, 79.9% white, and 8.1% diabetic). RESULTS Osteopenia and osteoporosis in at least one site (total hip or spine) were found in 32.7% and 20.0% of patients, respectively. As CKD progressed, the percentage of patients with normal BMD decreased, whereas the percentage of osteopenia and osteoporosis increased, which was mostly due to the total hip involvement, particularly in patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2. Older age and hyperparathyroidism were independent risk factors for osteopenia/osteoporosis at the total hip; female gender, older age, and higher iCa were independently associated with the risk of osteopenia/osteoporosis at the spine. With eGFR > 90 ml/min as reference, the odds ratios for osteoporosis/osteopenia at the hip were 1.51 (95% CI 1.01-2.24) and 1.91 (95% CI 1.13-3.20) for patients with eGFR 30-60 and 15-30 ml/min/1.73 m2, respectively. No CKD stage was significantly associated with the risk of osteoporosis/osteopenia at the spine. CONCLUSION Our results highlighted that low BMD in patients with CKD is associated with age and hyperparathyroidism, and affects predominantly the hip.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with the development of mineral bone disorder (MBD), osteoporosis, and fragility fractures. The purpose of this review is to provide an update on recent findings in the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis in patients with CKD. RECENT FINDINGS Multiple observational studies have shown that bone mineral density measurement using DEXA is equally predictive in CKD stages 1-3, as in the general population. Post hoc analyses from randomized trials of bisphosphonates, SERM, RANKL inhibitors and PTH agonists all suggest equal efficacy in mild-moderate CKD. A recent systematic review also found evidence for efficacy of bisphosphonates in patients with a kidney transplant. SUMMARY Bone mineral density measurement using DEXA is accurate in patients with CKD stages 1-3 and should be considered to guide treatment of osteoporosis. Current treatments are unaffected by mild-to-moderate decline in kidney function, and physicians should use bisphosphonates and other osteoporosis treatments in this population, whenever indicated. Studies evaluating the optimal diagnostic and management strategy in patients with CKD stages (G4-5D) are needed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Despite metabolic improvements following kidney transplantation, transplant recipients still often suffer from complex mineral and bone disease after transplantation. RECENT FINDINGS The pathophysiology of post-transplant disease is unique, secondary to underlying pre-transplant mineral and bone disease, immunosuppression, and changing kidney function. Changes in modern immunosuppression regimens continue to alter the clinical picture. Modern management includes reducing cumulative steroid exposure and correcting the biochemical abnormalities in mineral metabolism. While bone mineral density screening appears to help predict fracture risk and anti-osteoporotic therapy appears to have a positive effect on bone mineral density, more data regarding specific treatment is necessary. Patients with mineral and bone disease after kidney transplantation require special care in order to properly manage and mitigate their mineral and bone disease. Recent changes in clinical management of transplant patients may also be changing the implications on patients' mineral and bone disease.

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

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

Abstract
The trabecular bone score (TBS) is a novel tool using grayscale variograms of the lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) to assess trabecular bone microarchitecture. Studies in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) suggest it may be helpful in assessing fracture risk. However, TBS has not been validated as a measure of trabecular architecture against transiliac bone biopsy with histomorphometry in CKD patients. We hypothesized that TBS would reflect trabecular architecture at the iliac crest in CKD patients. We obtained tetracycline double labeled transiliac crest bone biopsy, areal BMD of the spine, total hip, femoral neck (FN) and spine TBS by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and cortical and trabecular volumetric density and microarchitecture by high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in CKD patients from two centers: twenty-two patients from Columbia University Medical Center, USA and thirty patients from Hospital das Clinicas - Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil. Two patients were excluded for outlier status. Univariate and multivariate relationships between TBS and measures from DXA, HR-pQCT and histomorphometry were determined. Patients were 50.2 ± 15.8 years old, 23 (46%) were men, and 33 (66%) were on dialysis. TBS was <1.31 in 21 (42%) patients and 22%, 14% and 10% had T-scores ≤ -2.5 at spine, FN and total hip respectively. In univariate regression, TBS was significantly associated with trabecular bone volume (BV/TV), trabecular width (Tb.Wi), trabecular spacing, cortical width but not with trabecular number or cortical porosity. FN Z-score and height were also associated with cancellous BV/TV and Tb.Wi, In multivariate analysis, TBS remained an independent predictor of BV/TV and Tb.Wi. There were no relationships between TBS and dynamic parameters from histomorphometry. These data suggest that TBS reflected trabecular microarchitecture and cortical width measured by bone biopsy in CKD patients. Future studies should address its utility in the identification of CKD patients who may benefit from fracture prevention strategies.

Abstract
Measurements of bone markers (BMs) in peripheral blood or urine are a pivotal part of bone research within modern clinical medicine. In recent years the use of BMs increased substantially as they can be useful either to diagnose bone (related) disease and to follow its natural history, but also to monitor the effects of interventions. However, the use of BMs is still complicated mainly due to (pre)analytical variability of these substances, limited accessibility of assays, variable cut-off values in different countries and laboratories and heterogeneous results with regard to clinical implications of measuring BMs in several studies. This review will provide the clinician with a practical guide, based on current evidence, in which circumstances to test which bone markers for optimal diagnostic purposes, in order to improve patient care in different areas of bone diseases including Paget's disease, primary osteoporosis, tumor induced osteomalacia, hypophosphatemic rickets, van Buchem disease, chronic kidney disease, rheumatoid arthritis, neoplasma/multiple myeloma, type 2 diabetes mellitus and primary hyperparathyroidism. The clinician should consider fasting state, recent fractures, aging, menopausal status, concomitant liver and kidney disease when ordering and interpreting BM measurements as these factors might result in misleading BM concentrations. We found that BMs are clearly useful in the current diagnosis of tumor induced osteomalacia, van Buchem disease, Paget's disease and hypophosphatemic rickets. In addition, BMs are useful to monitor disease activity in chronic kidney disease, Paget's disease and are useful to monitor treatment adherence in osteoporosis.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) independently influence bone and cardiovascular health. A considerable number of patients with CKD, especially those with stages 3a to 5D, have a significantly reduced bone mineral density leading to a high risk of fracture and a significant increase in associated morbidity and mortality. Independently of classic OP related to age and/or gender, the mechanical properties of bone are also affected by inherent risk factors for CKD ("uraemic OP"). In the first part of this review, we will analyse the general concepts regarding bone mineral density, OP and fractures, which have been largely undervalued until now by nephrologists due to the lack of evidence and diagnostic difficulties in the context of CKD. It has now been proven that a reduced bone mineral density is highly predictive of fracture risk in CKD patients, although it does not allow a distinction to be made between the causes which generate it (hyperparathyroidism, adynamic bone disease and/or senile osteoporosis, etc.). Therefore, in the second part, we will analyse the therapeutic indications in different CKD stages. In any case, the individual assessment of factors which represent a higher or lower risk of fracture, the quantification of this risk (i.e. using tools such as FRAX®) and the potential indications for densitometry in patients with CKD could represent an important first step pending new clinical guidelines based on randomised studies which do not exclude CKD patients, all the while avoiding therapeutic nihilism in an area of growing importance.

Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) refers to alterations in bone turnover, mineralisation, mass and microarchitecture in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and represents the skeletal component of 'CKD-mineral and bone disorder'. Changes in bone structure lead to impaired bone quality, compromised bone strength and increased susceptibility to fractures with associated significant morbidity, mortality and financial cost. Diagnosis and management of ROD is hindered by the inadequacy of currently available diagnostic methods to interpret the complex pathophysiology. Bone biopsy, the perceived gold standard test to assess ROD, is invasive and suboptimal for disease screening and management in routine clinical practice. High-resolution imaging, such as high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography and high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging provide accurate non-invasive quantification of bone microarchitecture and facilitate assessment of mechanical competence of bone, correlating with skeletal fragility. We discuss the potential for these imaging techniques in patients with CKD to provide quantification and assessment of bone structure and strength. When used in conjunction with serum biomarkers, these investigative tools may provide a non-invasive diagnostic virtual bone biopsy.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk for bone fractures compared with the general population. Repression of the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway is associated with bone abnormalities. Inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)‐3β, a critical component of the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway, increases bone volume through accumulation of β‐catenin. It remains unknown whether inhibition of GSK‐3β increases bone volume in CKD. The present in vivo study examined the effects of GSK‐3β inhibition on bone volume in CKD mice. Wild‐type mice were divided into three groups. One group was fed a control diet (CNT) and the other two groups were fed a diet containing 0.2% adenine and given water with or without lithium chloride (LiCl), a GSK‐3 inhibitor (CKD, CKD+LiCl, respectively). GSK‐3β heterozygous knockout mice were fed a diet containing 0.2% adenine (CKD‐GSK‐3β+/−). After 6 weeks, trabecular and cortical bone volumes of the femur were analyzed using microcomputed tomography. CKD mice developed azotemia, hyperphosphatemia, and hyperparathyroidism, followed by a decrease in cortical bone volume without any change in trabecular bone volume. Serum levels of urea nitrogen, phosphate, and parathyroid hormone were comparable among the three groups of CKD mice. Trabecular bone volume increased in CKD‐GSK‐3β+/− and CKD+LiCl mice compared with CNT and CKD mice. However, there were no significant differences in cortical bone volume among the three groups of CKD mice. The results suggest that inhibition of GSK‐3β increases trabecular bone volume but not cortical bone volume in adenine‐induced uremic mice with uncontrolled hyperparathyroidism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fracture risk is increased in chronic kidney disease (CKD), but assessment of bone fragility remains controversial in these patients. This study investigated the associations between bone turnover markers, bone mineral density (BMD), and prevalent fragility fracture in a cohort of kidney transplantation candidates. METHODS Volumetric BMD of spine and hip was measured by quantitative computed tomography. Parathyroid hormone (PTH), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, procollagen type-1 N-terminal propeptide, tartrate resistant alkaline phosphatase, and C- and N-terminal telopeptides of type 1 collagen were analyzed from fasting morning blood samples. Fragility fractures included prevalent vertebral fractures and previous low-trauma clinical fractures. RESULTS The fracture prevalence was 18% in 157 adult kidney transplant candidates. Fractured patients had reduced BMD and Z-score at both spine and hip. Levels of bone turnover markers were significantly higher in patients on maintenance dialysis than in pre-dialysis patients; but did not differ between patients with and without fracture. There were strong, positive correlations between PTH and all bone turnover markers. PTH was negatively associated with Z-score at lumbar spine and total hip; in contrast, bone turnover markers were only negatively associated with total hip Z-score. CONCLUSIONS Bone turnover markers were negatively associated with bone density, but not associated with prevalent fracture in kidney transplantation candidates. The role of bone turnover markers in assessing bone fragility in CKD will require further investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this paper, we review the epidemiology, diagnosis, and pathogenesis of fractures and renal osteodystrophy. RECENT FINDINGS The role of bone quality in the pathogenesis of fracture susceptibility in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is beginning to be elucidated. Bone quality refers to bone material properties, such as cortical and trabecular microarchitecture, mineralization, turnover, microdamage, and collagen content and structure. Recent data has added to our understanding of the effects of CKD on alterations to bone quality, emerging data on the role of abnormal collagen structure on bone strength, the potential of non-invasive methods to inform our knowledge of bone quality, and how we can use these methods to inform strategies that protect against bone loss and fractures. However, more prospective data is required. CKD is associated with abnormal bone quality and strength which results in high fracture incidence.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects nearly 10% of the population. The incidence of fractures in population studies demonstrate an increase with worsening stages of kidney disease suggesting specific CKD related causes of fracture. RECENT FINDINGS The increase in fractures with CKD most likely represents disordered bone quality due to the abnormal bone remodeling from renal osteodystrophy. There is also an increase in fractures with age in patients with CKD, suggesting that patients with CKD also have many fracture risk factors common to patients without known CKD. Osteoporosis is defined by the National Institutes of Health as "A skeletal disorder characterized by compromised bone strength predisposing to an increased risk of fracture. Bone strength reflects the integration of two main features: bone quantity and bone quality." Thus, CKD-related fractures can be considered a type of osteoporosis-where the bone quality is additionally impaired above that of age/hormonal-related osteoporosis. Perhaps using the term CKD-induced osteoporosis, similar to steroid-induced osteoporosis, will allow patients with CKD to be studied in trials investigating therapeutic agents. In this series, we will examine how CKD-induced osteoporosis may be diagnosed and treated.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with mineral and bone disorders (MBD) that are now considered as a syndrome. Bone fragility and a four to tenfold increased rate of skeletal fractures are often reported in CKD patients. The evaluation of the risk of these fractures in CKD patients should explore the same risk factors identified for the general population including low body weight, menopause, personal and familial history of osteoporosis, chronic inflammatory diseases, and corticosteroid therapy. The aim of this article is to provide a critical review of the tools used for the evaluation of bone loss and the risk of fracture in CKD patients, ranging from the measurement of bone mineral density (BMD), fracture risk assessment (Frax™), quantitative computed tomography (QCT), high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HRpQTC), to circulating biomarkers of bone metabolism including vitamin D, parathyroid hormone (PTH), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and some collagen type 1-related molecules indicators of bone remodeling.

Abstract
Hemodialysis (HD) patients face increased fracture risk, which is further associated with elevated risk of hospitalization and mortality. High-resolution peripheral computed tomography (HR-pQCT) has advanced our understanding of bone disease in chronic kidney disease by characterizing distinct changes in both the cortical and trabecular compartments. Increased cortical porosity (Ct.Po) has been shown to be associated with fracture in patients with osteopenia or in postmenopausal diabetic women. We tested whether the degree of Ct.Po identifies hemodialysis patients with prevalent fragility fractures in comparison to bone mineral density (BMD) assessed by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). We performed a post-hoc analysis of a cross-sectional study in 76 prevalent hemodialysis patients. Markers of mineral metabolism, coronary calcification score, DXA-, and HR-pQCT-data were analyzed, and Ct.Po determined at radius and tibia. Ct.Po was significantly higher in patients with fracture but association was lost after adjusting for age and gender (tibia p = 0.228, radius p = 0.5). Instead, femoral (F) BMD neck area (p = 0.03), F T-score neck area (p = 0.03), radius (R) BMD (p = 0.03), R T-score (p = 0.03), and cortical HR-pQCT indices such as cortical area (Ct.Ar) (tibia: p = 0.01; radius: p = 0.02) and cortical thickness (Ct.Th) (tibia: p = 0.03; radius: p = 0.02) correctly classified patients with fragility fractures. Area under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) for Ct.Po (tibia AUC: 0.711; p = 0.01; radius AUC: 0.666; p = 0.04), Ct.Ar (tibia AUC: 0.832; p<0.001; radius AUC: 0.796; p<0.001), and F neck BMD (AUC: 0.758; p = 0.002) did not differ significantly among each other. In conclusion, measuring Ct.Po is not superior to BMD determined by DXA for identification of HD patients with fragility fracture.

Abstract
It is commonly held that osteitis fibrosa and mixed uremic osteodystrophy are the predominant forms of renal osteodystrophy in patients with chronic kidney disease. Osteitis fibrosa is a high-turnover bone disease resulting mainly from secondary hyperparathyroidism, and mixed uremic osteodystrophy is in addition characterized by a mineralization defect most often attributed to vitamin D deficiency. However, there is ancient and more recent evidence that in early chronic kidney disease stages adynamic bone disease characterized by low bone turnover occurs first, at least in a significant proportion of patients. This could be due to the initial predominance of bone turnover-inhibitory conditions such as resistance to the action of parathyroid hormone (PTH), reduced calcitriol levels, sex hormone deficiency, diabetes, and, last but not least, uremic toxins leading to repression of osteocyte Wnt/β-catenin signaling and increased expression of Wnt antagonists such as sclerostin, Dickkopf-1, and sFRP4. The development of high-turnover bone disease would occur only later on, when serum PTH levels are able to overcome peripheral PTH resistance and the other inhibitory factors of bone formation. Whether FGF23 and Klotho play a direct role in the transition from low- to high-turnover bone disease or participate only indirectly via regulating PTH secretion remains to be seen.
