Bone disease is one of the most challenging complications in patients with chronic kidney disease. Today, it is considered to be part of a complex systemic disorder manifested by disturbances of mineral metabolism and vascular calcifications called chronic kidney disease – mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD). The term renal osteodystrophy is reserved to define the specific bone lesion in CKD-MBD, whose spectrum ranges from high turnover to low turnover disease. Phosphate retention, decreased serum calcium, and 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D synthesis are involved in the pathogenesis of high bone turnover. However, the various therapeutic approaches (calcium supplements, phosphate binders, and vitamin D metabolites, among others), the renal replacement modality (hemodialysis or continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis), and the types of patients to whom dialysis is offered (more patients who are diabetic or older, or both) may influence the evolution of the bone disorder. As a result, recent studies have reported a greater prevalence of adynamic forms of renal osteodystrophy, especially in diabetic and peritoneal dialysis patients. The present article reviews, for patients treated with peritoneal dialysis, the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in the evolution and perpetuation of this bone disease and the therapeutic modalities for treating and preventing adynamic bone.

AbstractBackgroundSclerostin and osteoprotegerin (OPG) are new markers of chronic kidney disease (CKD) mediated mineral bone disease (CKD-MBD) which were extensively evaluated in adult population. We aimed to evaluate the associations between serum levels of sclerostin/OPG and parameters of bone turnover and compare the serum levels of sclerostin/OPG in different stages of CKD in children.Methods70 children with CKD stage 1-5, aged 2-21 years were examined. Serum levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), creatinine, total calcium, phosphorus , intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and vitamin D were measured. Serum sclerostin and OPG levels were measured in children with different levels of CKD stage and their association with bone turnover parameters were noted.ResultsWe did not observe any significant correlation between serum levels of sclerostin and OPG and stages of CKD. A negative relationship was present between serum sclerostin and 25-OH vitamin D levels. Osteoprotegerin was positively and significantly correlated with ALP but serum sclerostin was negatively correlated with ALP.ConclusionOur study, which includes only children and adolescents with a growing skeleton under uremic conditions and excluding diabetes and atherosclerosis interference, is very valuable. We couldn't find any significant relationship between either sclerostin or OPG levels among different stages of CKD. Also our study demonstared a strong negative relationship between ALP and sclerostin levels and a strong positive relationship between ALP and OPG levels, reminding the importance of ALP levels to predict the bone-mineral status of the children with CKD.

Abstract. Background/Aims: Trials on the effects of cholecalciferol supplementation in type 2 diabetes with chronic kidney disease patients were underexplored. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two different doses of vitamin D supplementation on serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations and metabolic parameters in vitamin D-deficient Korean diabetes patients with chronic kidney disease. Methods: 92 patients completed this study: the placebo group (A, n = 33), the oral cholecalciferol 1,000 IU/day group (B, n = 34), or the single 200,000 IU injection group (C, n = 25, equivalent to 2,000 IU/day). 52% of the patients had less than 60 mL/min/1.73m2 of glomerular filtration rates. Laboratory test and pulse wave velocity were performed before and after supplementation. Results: After 12 weeks, serum 25(OH)D concentrations of the patients who received vitamin D supplementation were significantly increased (A, -2.4 ± 1.2 ng/mL vs. B, 10.7 ± 1.2 ng/mL vs. C, 14.6 ± 1.7 ng/mL; p < 0.001). In addition, the lipid profiles in the vitamin D injection group (C) showed a significant decrease in triglyceride and a rise in HDL cholesterol. However, the other parameters showed no differences. Conclusions: Our data indicated that two different doses and routes of vitamin D administration significantly and safely increased serum 25(OH)D concentrations in vitamin D-deficient diabetes patients with comorbid chronic kidney disease. In the group that received the higher vitamin D dose, the lipid profiles showed significant improvement, but there were no beneficial effects on other metabolic parameters.
