Abstract
The gut microbiome is linked to osteoporosis. Previous clinical studies showed inconsistent results. This study aimed to characterize the gut microbiota feature and reveal its relation with diet in postmenopausal osteoporosis. Fifty-five postmenopausal women with osteoporosis (Op group) and forty-four age-matched postmenopausal women (normal bone mineral density, Con group) were included in this study. Fecal microbiota was collected and analyzed by shallow shotgun sequencing. Food frequency questionnaires were collected from both groups, and Spearman analysis was used to clarify its correlation with gut microbiota. A total of 2671 species from 29 phyla, 292 families, 152 orders, 80 classes were detected in the study. The two groups had no significant difference in the α and β diversity (p > 0.05). At the genus level, Anaerostipes was enriched in Op group (p < 0.05). At species level, Methanobrevibacter smithii, Bifidobacterium animalis, Rhodococcus defluvii, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Carnobacterium mobile were enriched in the Op group, while Bacillus luciferensis, Acetivibrio cellulolyticus, Citrobacter amalonaticus, and Bifidobacterium breve were differentially enriched in the Con group. Food frequency questionnaire showed that postmenopausal women with osteoporosis intaked more red meat, beer, white and red wine (p < 0.05), and the Con group had more yogurt, fruit, and tea consumption. Red meat consumption had a significant negative correlation with Streptosporangiales (p < 0.01) and Actinomadura (p < 0.05). Fruits intake negatively correlated with Nocardiaceae, Rhodococcus, and Rhodococcus defluvii (p < 0.05). More yogurt intake was consistently correlated with a greater abundance of Streptosporangiales. This study suggests that gut microbiota is significantly altered in the postmenopausal osteoporosis population at genus and species levels, and specific dietary intake might relate to these changes.

Abstract
Background: Many studies have reported the effects of spicy food on human health, but no studies have been conducted on the impact of long-term spicy food consumption on bone mineral density (BMD). This study aimed to investigate the impact of daily consumption of spicy food on BMD in the population aged 50 years and older. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from 2020 to 2022 in Jiangxi Province, China. This study investigated the differences in BMD between non-consumers and daily spicy food consumers in adults aged 50-85 years. A multiple linear regression model was used to investigate the association between spicy food consumption and BMD of the total lumbar spine (LS), femoral neck (FN), and total hip, as well as biochemical markers of bone metabolism (BMBM) levels. Results: The results showed that daily consumption of spicy food was negatively associated with total LS BMD (β = -0.013, P = 0.015). Subgroup analyses showed this negative association was more pronounced among smokers and drinkers compared to non-smokers (β: -0.006 vs. -0.042; P for interaction <0.05) and non-drinkers (β: -0.004 vs. -0.037; P for interaction <0.05). In addition, according to the daily frequency of spicy food consumption, the daily spicy food consumers were categorized into one meal per day, two meals per day, and three meals per day groups. Further analysis revealed that the negative association between spicy food and total LS BMD was progressively stronger as the frequency of daily consumption of spicy food increased (P for trend <0.05). For BMBM, daily consumption of spicy food was positively associated with serum PINP levels and negatively associated with serum Ca and serum Mg levels. Conclusions: Our study suggested that daily consumption of spicy food was associated with lower LS BMD in middle-aged and older Chinese adults, and this association was more pronounced in the smoking and drinking populations. The adverse effects of spicy food on LS BMD become progressively stronger with increasing frequency of daily consumption of spicy food. In addition, daily consumption of spicy food was associated with higher PINP levels and lower serum Ca and Mg levels.

Abstract
Purpose Osteoporosis represents a profound challenge to public health, underscoring the critical need to dissect its complex etiology and identify viable targets for intervention. Within this context, the gut microbiota has emerged as a focal point of research due to its profound influence on bone metabolism. Despite this growing interest, the literature has yet to see a bibliometric study addressing the gut microbiota's contribution to both the development and management of osteoporosis. This study aims to fill this gap through an exhaustive bibliometric analysis. Our objective is to uncover current research hotspots, delineate key themes, and identify future research trends. In doing so, we hope to provide direction for future studies and the development of innovative treatment methods. Methods Relevant publications in this field were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. We used VOSviewer, CiteSpace, an online analysis platform and the R package "Bibliometrix" for bibliometric analysis. Results A total of 529 publications (including 351 articles and 178 reviews) from 61 countries, 881 institutions, were included in this study. China leads in publication volume and boast the highest cumulative citation. Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Southern Medical University are the leading research institutions in this field. Nutrients contributed the largest number of articles, and J Bone Miner Res is the most co-cited journal. Of the 3,166 scholars who participated in the study, Ohlsson C had the largest number of articles. Li YJ is the most co-cited author. "Probiotics" and "inflammation" are the keywords in the research. Conclusion This is the first bibliometric analysis of gut microbiota in osteoporosis. We explored current research status in recent years and identified frontiers and hot spots in this research field. We investigate the impact of gut microbiome dysregulation and its associated inflammation on OP progression, a topic that has garnered international research interest in recent years. Additionally, our study delves into the potential of fecal microbiota transplantation or specific dietary interventions as promising avenues for future research, which can provide reference for the researchers who focus on this research filed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Nutritional guidelines for postmenopausal women differ. This study aimed to assess postmenopausal women's knowledge, beliefs, and practices regarding nutrition during menopause and their dietary habits. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted in a menopause clinic, and data from 105 women were analyzed. A nutrition knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions (KAP) questionnaire was designed, structured, and piloted before implementation, based on the Hellenic dietary guidelines. International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Greek version, MedDietScore, and Menopause-specific Quality of Life questionnaires were administered. RESULTS The mean ± SD age of the women was 56.9 ± 4.6 years. The mean ± SD KAP score was 12.2 ± 3.5. Those who lived in rural areas had lower KAP scores than those who lived in urban areas ( P = 0.004). Of all the women, 74.5% knew the Mediterranean diet pyramid, whereas 9.8% knew the Hellenic dietary guidelines. Women who had read the guidelines showed better knowledge of Mediterranean diet food groups (Pearson, 0.309; P = 0.039). Knowledge of dairy services was correlated with consumption of dairy products ( P = 0.002). Furthermore, 76.4% were willing to participate in nutrition education programs. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire score was positively correlated with years of smoking ( P = 0.002). Physical activity correlated with adherence to the Mediterranean diet ( P = 0.044). CONCLUSIONS The majority of postmenopausal Greek women in this study were unaware of the Hellenic dietary guidelines. In general, women's knowledge of nutrition during menopause was moderate. Greek postmenopausal women are willing to participate in nutrition education programs, which should raise awareness of healthy lifestyles through nutrition, exercise, and smoking cessation.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis stands as the predominant bone disorder in the developed world, posing a significant public health challenge. Nutritional factors play a crucial role in bone health and may contribute to its prevention or treatment. Calcium and vitamin D, extensively studied with robust scientific evidence, are integral components of the non-pharmacological treatment for this disorder. Nevertheless, other less-explored nutritional elements appear to influence bone metabolism. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the latest evidence concerning the relationship between various nutrients, such as phosphorus, magnesium, vitamins, phytate, and phytoestrogens; specific foods like dairy or soy, and dietary patterns such as the Mediterranean diet with bone health and osteoporosis.

Abstract
Purpose The current study aimed to explore the associations of diet quality assessed by healthy eating index-2015 (HEI-2015) with risks of osteoporosis and low bone mineral density (BMD) among American postmenopausal women aged 50 years and older. Methods Postmenopausal women aged 50 years and older in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2007 through 2018 were included in the final sample. Analysis of variance and Rao-Scott adjusted chi-square tests were used to compare the characteristics across tertiles of HEI-2015. Univariate and multivariate weighted logistic regression models were employed to explore the associations of HEI-2015 tertiles and continuous HEI-2015 with the risks of osteoporosis and low BMD. Nonlinear dose-response associations were evaluated using weighted restricted cubic spline analyses, and the contributions of various HEI-2015 components were assessed using weighted quantile sum regression models. Results The final sample included 3,421 postmenopausal women aged 50 years and older representative for approximately 28.38 million non-institutionalized U.S. postmenopausal women. Osteoporosis prevalence decreased with HEI-2015 tertiles while the prevalence of low BMD showed no significant decrease. Compared with postmenopausal women in the first tertile of HEI-2015, those with the second (OR: 0.57, 95%CI: 0.38-0.84) and third (OR: 0.48, 95%CI: 0.29-0.78) HEI-2015 tertiles were associated with reduced osteoporosis risk after multivariate adjustments, but no significant association of HEI-2015 with the risk of BMD was identified. Furthermore, similar effects were confirmed in the sensitivity analyses and subgroup analyses and interaction effects. Moreover, significant nonlinear associations were observed between HEI-2015 with osteoporosis risk, and total vegetables, refined grains and greens and beans demonstrated the strongest protective effect among HEI-2015 components against osteoporosis. Conclusions This study strongly suggests the significant negative associations of HEI-2015 with osteoporosis risk in American postmenopausal women. These findings highlight the importance of adherence to the dietary guidelines for Americans in reducing the risk of osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mass and deterioration of bone tissue, which is influenced by both environmental factors and nutritional metabolism. The relationship between biochemical indicators and bone mineral density (BMD) is intricate and involves complex mechanisms. Path analysis, a statistical method that investigates causal relationships and the strength of associations among multiple factors, can be valuable in elucidating the connection between biochemical indicators and BMD. METHODS In this study, we employed advanced statistical techniques, specifically structural equation modeling (SEM) to investigate the intricate interrelationships among a myriad of factors that exert influence on BMD. This analytical approach facilitated not only the identification of the direct relationships between specific variables and BMD but also the exploration of the intricate of indirect pathway through which other variables contribute to the oval impact on BMD. By delving into the direct and indirect effects, we aimed to unravel the complex influences that collectively shape the state of bone health, providing a nuanced understanding of the multifaceted nature of the factors affecting BMD. RESULTS Our findings revealed that lipid levels had a significant indirect influence on BMD, which was mediated by body mass index (BMI). BMI exhibited both direct and indirect effects on BMD. Uric acid (UA) exerted a significant direct and indirect influence on BMD, with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) acting as the mediator. However, the total effect of UA on BMD was not significant due to the cancellation of positive effect UA on BMD but negative indirect effects of UA through GFR. For females, albumin had a significant direct effect on BMD, whereas this effect was not observed in males. The path analysis models generated results that demonstrated an acceptable fit for both female data (χ2 = 9.63, df = 7, p = 0.21, comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.98, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.05) and male data (χ2 = 6.26, df = 4, p = 0.18, CFI = 0.97, RMSEA = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS Nutritional metabolism plays a crucial role in maintaining BMD in elderly females and males.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous group of connective tissue disorders, characterized by varying degrees of skeletal fragility. Patients experience a range of comorbidities, such as obesity, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal complications, especially in adulthood. All aspects that could benefit from dietary intervention. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a 6-months restricted Mediterranean Diet (rMD) on nutritional status in adult patients affected by OI. We carried out a 6-months longitudinal pilot study. 14 adults (median age: 35 years; 7 women; 7 OI type III) where recruited in 2019 among the members of As.It.O.I., the Italian Association of Osteogenesis Imperfecta. As.It.O.I. All the evaluations were performed at the University of Milan, Italy. The rMD provided a reduction of 30% from daily total energy expenditure. 45% of calories derived from carbohydrates, 35% from fat and 0.7-1.0 g/kg of body weight from proteins. Comparisons of continuous variables after 6 months of intervention were performed by the paired t-test. All P-values were two-tailed, and p < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS Patients showed significant improvement in anthropometric measurements (BMI = 30.5 vs 28.1 kg/cm2, p < 0.001; Body Fat % = 32.9 vs 29.9, p = 0.006; Waist circumferences = 83.6 vs 79.6 cm; p < 0.001; Arm Fat Area = 29.8 vs 23.07 cm2; p < 0.011) and energy expenditure (REE/kg = 27.2 vs 29.2 kcal/kg, p < 0.001). Glucose and lipid profiles improved (Δglycemia = - 8.6 ± 7.3 mg/dL, p = 0.003; ΔTC = - 14.6 ± 20.1 mg/dL, p = 0.036; ΔLDL = - 12.0 ± 12.1 mg/dL, p = 0.009). Adherence to the MD significantly increased, moving from a moderate to a strong adherence and reporting an increased consumption of white meat, legumes, fish, nuts, fruits and vegetables. CONCLUSION A rMD was effective in improving nutritional status and dietary quality in adults with OI. These results underscores the need to raise awareness of nutrition as part of the multidisciplinary treatment of this disease.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic small intestinal immune-mediated enteropathy precipitated by exposure to dietary gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. The worldwide prevalence of CD is estimated to be 0.7-1.4% of the general population. Etiopathology of this disease is multifactorial, with genetic determinants being a major contributing player to CD susceptibility. Its manifestation embraces different organs, including the musculoskeletal apparat. Patients with CD have increased risk of bone disorders. According to data, bone disorders - osteopenia and osteoporosis - can affect up to 70% of patients with CD at diagnosis, and it decreases after the initiation of a gluten-free diet. Gluten consumption in patients with CD triggers an inflammatory reaction followed by tissue damage, and both; local and systemic inflammation can increase the risk of bone mass deterioration. Other theory assumes shortages of vitamin D and an impaired calcium absorption mechanism leading to secondary hyperparathyroidism. Taking into account the increasing prevalence of CD and osteoporosis, we broadly discuss genetic, immunological, dietary, gut microbiota, and environmental factors that could increase the risk of osteoporosis in CD. Furthermore, we discuss lifestyle and pharmacological preventing and treatment measures.

Abstract
Menopause is associated with an increased prevalence of obesity, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, and osteoporosis. These diseases and unfavorable laboratory values, which are characteristic of this period in women, can be significantly improved by eliminating and reducing dietary risk factors. Changing dietary habits during perimenopause is most effectively achieved through nutrition counseling and intervention. To reduce the risk factors of all these diseases, and in the case of an already existing disease, dietary therapy led by a dietitian should be an integral part of the treatment. The following review summarizes the recommendations for a balanced diet and fluid intake, the dietary prevention of cardiovascular diseases, the role of sleep, and the key preventive nutrients in menopause, such as vitamin D, calcium, vitamin C, B vitamins, and protein intake. In summary, during the period of perimenopause and menopause, many lifestyle factors can reduce the risk of developing all the diseases (cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, and tumors) and symptoms characteristic of this period.

Abstract
With the aging population, osteoporosis has become a more prevalent public health issue. Existing researches have indicated significant relations of single metal exposure with osteoporosis (e.g., lead, copper, and zinc), whereas the evidence regarding the joint association of metal mixtures with osteoporosis remain limited and inconclusive. A total of 4924 participants from the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort were included in the present study. Plasma levels of 23 metals were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and the presence of osteoporosis was defined as a bone mineral density T-score ≤ - 2.5. We applied stepwise regression, plasma metal score, and quantile g-computation model to evaluate the association between plasma metal mixtures and osteoporosis risk. Of the 4924 participants, the prevalence of osteoporosis was 10.9% (N = 265) in males and 27.5% (N = 684) in females. In the multiple-metals model, arsenic was positively associated with osteoporosis in males, while zinc was positively associated with osteoporosis in females. Comparing extreme quartiles, the multivariate-adjusted ORs of osteoporosis were 2.20 (95% CI, 1.29, 3.79; P-trend = 0.006) for arsenic in males and 2.16 (95% CI, 1.44, 3.23; P-trend < 0.001) for zinc in females. The plasma metal score was significantly and positively associated with a higher risk of osteoporosis, with ORs (95% CI) comparing extreme quartiles were 5.00 (95% CI, 3.36, 7.65; P-trend < 0.001) in males and 1.76 (95% CI, 1.35, 2.29; P-trend < 0.001) in females. Furthermore, the results of quantile g-computation revealed a consistent positive trend of metal mixtures with risk of osteoporosis and suggested the dominant role of arsenic in males and zinc in females, respectively. Our findings highlighted the importance of controlling metal mixtures exposure for the prevention of osteoporosis in the middle-aged and elder population. Further prospective studies in larger populations are warranted to confirm our findings.

Lower Adherence to a Mediterranean Diet Is Associated with High Adiposity in Community-Dwelling Older Adults: Results from the Longevity Check-Up (Lookup) 7+ Project. Nutrients 2023; 15:4892. [PMID: 38068751 PMCID: PMC10708281 DOI: 10.3390/nu15234892] [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: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 11/20/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
High adiposity impacts health and quality of life in old age, owing to its association with multimorbidity, decreased physical performance, and frailty. Whether a high adherence to a Mediterranean diet (Medi-Diet) is associated with reduced body adiposity in older adults is unclear. The present study was conducted to assess the prevalence of high adiposity in a large sample of community-dwelling older adults. We also explored the relationship between whole-body adiposity estimated through relative fat mass (RFM) and Medi-Diet adherence. Data were obtained from the Longevity Check-up 7+ (Lookup7+) project database. RFM was estimated from anthropometric and personal parameters using a validated equation. RFM was categorized as high if ≥40% in women and ≥30% in men. Information on diet was collected using a food frequency questionnaire, while Medi-Diet adherence was assessed through a modified version of the Medi-Lite scoring system. Analyses were conducted in 2092 participants (mean age 73.1 ± 5.9 years; 53.4% women). Mean RFM was 39.6 ± 5.14% in women and 29.0 ± 3.6% in men. High adiposity was found in 971 (46.4%) participants and was more frequent in those with a low (54.2%) or moderate (46.4%) Medi-Diet adherence compared with the high-adherence group (39.7%, p < 0.001). Logistic regression indicated that older adults with high Medi-Diet adherence were less likely to have a high RFM. Other factors associated with a greater risk of having high adiposity were older age, female sex, and physical inactivity. Our findings support an association between healthy lifestyles, including a greater adherence to a Mediterranean-style diet, and lower body adiposity in older adults.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although the Mediterranean diet has been associated with a lower risk of hip fracture, the effect of other dietary patterns on bone density and risk of fracture is unknown. This scoping review aims to investigate the association between adherence to alternative dietary patterns (other than the traditional Mediterranean diet) and osteoporosis or osteoporotic fracture risk in older people. METHODS A systematic search was carried out on three electronic databases (Medline, EMBASE, and Scopus) to identify original papers studying the association between alternative dietary patterns (e.g., Baltic Sea Diet (BSD), modified/alternative Mediterranean diet in non-Mediterranean populations, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH)) assessed using 'prior' methods (validated scores) and the risk of osteoporotic fracture or Bone Mineral Density (BMD) in people aged ≥50 (or reported average age of participants ≥ 60). Results from the included studies were presented in a narrative way. RESULTS Six observational (four prospective cohort and two cross-sectional) studies were included. There was no significant association between BMD and BSD or DASH scores. Higher adherence to DASH was associated with a lower risk of lumbar spine osteoporosis in women in one study, although it was not associated with the risk of hip fracture in another study with men and women. Higher adherence to aMED (alternative Mediterranean diet) was associated with a lower risk of hip fracture in one study, whereas higher adherence to mMED (modified Mediterranean diet) was associated with a lower risk of hip fracture in one study and had no significant result in another study. However, diet scores were heterogeneous across cohort studies. CONCLUSIONS There is some evidence that a modified and alternative Mediterranean diet may reduce the risk of hip fracture, and DASH may improve lumbar spine BMD. Larger cohort studies are needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
Calcium is imperative in maintaining a quality life, particularly during later ages. Its deficiency results in a wide range of metabolic disorders such as dental changes, cataracts, alterations in brain function, and osteoporosis. These deficiencies are more pronounced in females due to increased calcium turnover throughout their life cycle, especially during pregnancy and lactation. Vitamin D perform a central role in the metabolism of calcium. Recent scientific interventions have linked calcium with an array of metabolic disorders in females including hypertension, obesity, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), multiple sclerosis, and breast cancer. This review encompasses these female metabolic disorders with special reference to calcium and vitamin D deficiency. This review article aims to present and elaborate on available data regarding the worldwide occurrence of insufficient calcium consumption in females and allied health risks, to provide a basis for formulating strategies and population-level scientific studies to adequately boost calcium intake and position where required.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess whether the composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) is associated with osteoporosis (OP) in middle-aged and older US populations. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional survey and identified individuals aged 40-85 years (n=11,664) from secondary datasets from the 2007-2010, 2013-2014, and 2017-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure bone mineral density (BMD), and OP was defined as a BMD T-score ≤-2.5 at the femoral neck or lumbar spine. The CDAI score was calculated based on dietary data from the first NHANES 24-hour dietary recall. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between CDAI and OP. RESULTS Among the 11,664 participants, the average age was 60.3 (11.8), 5,898 (50.6%) were female, and 925 (7.9%) had OP. The median CDAI was -2.0 (interquartile range, -6.9 to 4.2). After adjusting for age, sex, race, family income, body mass index, physical activity, calorie intake, estimated glomerular filtration rate, smoking and drinking status, hypertension, and diabetes, the CDAI was associated with OP (odds ratio (OR), 0.98; 95% CI: 0.96-0.99). Participants in the highest CDAI quantile were at low risk of osteoporosis (OR, 0.61; 95% CI: 0.44-0.85) versus those in the lowest quantile. Moreover, this association was stable in the subgroup and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION Dietary antioxidant ability assessed by using the CDAI was inversely associated with OP among US adults aged 40-85 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to systematically review the literature and test the dose-response relationship between adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) and values of bone mineral density (BMD) in adults. METHODS Relevant observational studies were selected through searching PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases up to March 4, 2021. A random-effects dose-response meta-analysis was performed to estimate the change in total and regional-specific BMD for a 2-point increment in the score of adherence to the MedDiet, and to clarify the shape of these associations. RESULTS Seven cross-sectional and one cohort studies with a total number of 13,209 participants were included in the final analyses. Each 2-point increment in the score of adherence to the MedDiet was associated with 0.009 (95% CI: 0.002, 0.016; I2 = 34%, n = 7), 0.006 (95% CI: 0.001, 0.012; I2 = 34%, n = 7), 0.005 (95% CI: 0.003, 0.007; I2 = 1%, n = 4), 0.005 (95% CI: 0.002, 0.008; I2 = 0%, n = 3), and 0.007 (95% CI: 0.005, 0.009; I2 = 0%, n = 4) gr/cm2 higher BMD of lumbar spine, femoral neck, hip, trochanter, and whole body, respectively. There was a positive linear relationship between the MedDiet adherence score and BMD of hip and trochanter. A nonlinear relationship was seen for lumbar spine, femoral neck, and whole body, with sharper increase in the BMD at lower MedDiet scores. The associations remained significant after controlling for important confounders including body weight, physical activity, smoking status, and energy intake. CONCLUSION Greater adherence to the MedDiet was associated with a small but important increase in BMD at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, hip, trochanter, and whole body. Adopting a Mediterranean-style eating pattern may have modest beneficial effects on bone health.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) results from a reduction in bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration in bone tissue due to estrogen deficiency, which may increase the incidence of fragility fractures. The number of people suffering from PMO has increased over the years because of the rapidly aging population worldwide. However, several pharmacological agents for the treatment of PMO have many safety risks and impose a heavy financial burden to patients and society. In recent years, the "gut-bone" axis has been proposed as a new approach in the prevention and treatment of PMO. This paper reviews the relationship between the gut microbiota and PMO, which mainly includes the underlying mechanisms between hormones, immunity, nutrient metabolism, metabolites of the gut microbiota and intestinal permeability, and explores the possible role of the gut microbiota in these processes. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic effects of diet, prebiotics, probiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation on the gut microbiota.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes (T1D)-induced osteoporosis is characterized by decreased bone mineral density, bone quality, rate of bone healing, bone formation, and increased bone resorption. Patients with T1D have a 2-7-fold higher risk of osteoporotic fracture. The mechanisms leading to increased risk of osteoporotic fracture in T1D include insulin deficiency, hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, lower insulin-like growth factor-1, hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress, and inflammation. In addition, a higher probability of falling, kidney dysfunction, weakened vision, and neuropathy indirectly increase the risk of osteoporotic fracture in T1D patients. Decreased nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability contributes to the pathophysiology of T1D-induced osteoporotic fracture. This review discusses the role of NO in osteoblast-mediated bone formation and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption in T1D. In addition, the mechanisms involved in reduced NO bioavailability and activity in type 1 diabetic bones as well as NO-based therapy for T1D-induced osteoporosis are summarized. Available data indicates that lower NO bioavailability in diabetic bones is due to disruption of phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase/protein kinase B/endothelial NO synthases and NO/cyclic guanosine monophosphate/protein kinase G signaling pathways. Thus, NO bioavailability may be boosted directly or indirectly by NO donors. As NO donors with NO-like effects in the bone, inorganic nitrate and nitrite can potentially be used as novel therapeutic agents for T1D-induced osteoporosis. Inorganic nitrites and nitrates can decrease the risk for osteoporotic fracture probably directly by decreasing osteoclast activity, decreasing fat accumulation in the marrow cavity, increasing osteoblast activity, and increasing bone perfusion or indirectly, by improving hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and reducing body weight.

The pathophysiology of immunoporosis: innovative therapeutic targets. Inflamm Res 2021; 70:859-875.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The physiological balance between bone resorption and bone formation is now known to be mediated by a cascade of events parallel to the classic osteoblast-osteoclast interaction. Thus, osteoimmunology now encompasses the role played by other cell types, such as cytokines, lymphocytes and chemokines, in immunological responses and how they help modulate bone metabolism. All these factors have an impact on the RANK/RANKL/OPG pathway, which is the major pathway for the maturation and resorption activity of osteoclast precursor cells, responsible for osteoporosis development. Recently, immunoporosis has emerged as a new research area in osteoimmunology dedicated to the immune system's role in osteoporosis. METHODS The first part of this review presents theoretical concepts on the factors involved in the skeletal system and osteoimmunology. Secondly, existing treatments and novel therapeutic approaches to treat osteoporosis are summarized. These were selected from to the most recent studies published on PubMed containing the term osteoporosis. All data relate to the results of in vitro and in vivo studies on the osteoimmunological system of humans, mice and rats. FINDINGS Treatments for osteoporosis can be classified into two categories. They either target osteoclastogenesis inhibition (denosumab, bisphosphonates), or they aim to restore the number and function of osteoblasts (romozumab, abaloparatide). Even novel therapies, such as resolvins, gene therapy, and mesenchymal stem cell transplantation, fall within this classification system. CONCLUSION This review presents alternative pathways in the pathophysiology of osteoporosis, along with some recent therapeutic breakthroughs to restore bone homeostasis.
