Sixty-nine female patients, mean age 27.5 years (range 20-40), with a past or current history of anorexia nervosa (DSM Ill-R) had spinal trabecular bone density assessed by single energy quantitative CT scan. Current exercise and dietary calcium levels were assessed by detailed questionnaires and categorized. A semi-structured interview was used to record weight, menstruation, exercise and dietary calcium intake histories from early adolescence. Serum sex hormones and total calcium assays were measured. Bone density was significantly lower in the patients compared to 31 controls. Bone density was significantly positively correlated with body mass index, and negatively correlated with illness duration and duration of amenorrhoea. Exercise levels, dietary calcium intake and taking an oestrogen pill did not correlate significantly with bone density. Recovered patients did not have osteopaenia but they had shorter illness histories than non-recovered patients. Management to minimise bone loss should focus on weight gain and resumption of normal menstruation.

In Pregnancy

1. A combination of a mineral balance and a radioactive technique has been used to study the effect of the dietary calcium intake of ewes in pregnancy on their Ca and phosphorus metabolism in lactation.2. Ewes which had received a Ca-deficient diet in pregnancy absorbed Ca at a greater rate and with a greater efficiency in early lactation than did the control animals, which had received an adequate Ca intake in pregnancy. The apparent absorption of P was also higher in the Ca-deficient sheep.3. Since both groups of sheep received the same high Ca intake in lactation, the increased rate of absorption of Ca must have resulted from an increased rate of active transport rather than an increased rate of diffusion.4. Retention of both Ca and P was positive in the Ca-deficient ewes but negative in the control ewes. This difference in retention reflected a difference in bone metabolism.5. The maximum rate of absorption possible, which is equal to the rate of irreversible loss of Ca from the rapidly exchangeable pool, was much greater in the Ca-deficient lactating ewes than was previously found in Ca-deficient wethers. This difference is due to the additional pathway of loss of Ca in the milk of the lactating animals.6. The relationship between these findings and the prevention of milk fever in dairy cows by manipulation of the dietary Ca intake is discussed.

ObjectivesTo investigate whether dietary calcium intake will modify the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OHD) with intact serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentrations in apparently healthy Indian adolescents.Study designCross-sectional study.Setting and participantsApparently healthy adolescents aged 10–14 years (n=181), from Gujarat, western India. Study conducted from January 2012 to March 2014.MethodsSerum 25OHD concentrations and intact serum PTH concentrations (both using chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay) were measured. Diet was recorded through 24 h diet recall and calcium intake was computed (C-diet V.2.1). To assess relationship between 25OHD and PTH, data were dichotomised according to median calcium intakes (520 mg/day) and relationship between serum 25OHD and PTH in the two subgroups was plotted.ResultsSubjects with calcium intakes above median (>520 mg/day) had lower intact serum PTH values for given serum 25OHD concentration while those with calcium intakes below median (<520 mg/day) had higher intact serum PTH values for given serum 25OHD concentration. Serum 25OHD concentration was negatively correlated with intact serum PTH concentration at lower as well as higher calcium intakes (r=− 0.606 and −0.483, respectively, p<0.01 for both). Using a regression analysis, predicted values for intact serum PTH concentration for the given serum 25OHD concentrations were plotted. The plot revealed a negative shift with increasing calcium intake.ConclusionsDietary calcium intake modifies the relationship between serum 25OHD concentrations and intact serum PTH concentrations. Thus, dietary calcium intake should be taken into account when assessing an individual's vitamin D status.

The Relationship

Obesity is declared as a chronic multifaceted health problem, and young adults may be particularly vulnerable to weight gain. This study aims to identify the role of dietary calcium intake and the muscle strength index in handling excess of fat mass in young adults and to examine if the relationship between dietary calcium intake and fat mass percentage is mediated by muscle strength. A cross-sectional study including 355 Spanish college students (aged 21.05 ± 3.11) was performed during the 2017–2018 academic year. Pearson correlation coefficients were estimated to determine the relationship between dietary calcium intake, fat mass percentage, body mass index, muscle strength components, and total energy intake. ANCOVA models were used to analyze the differences in the muscle strength index by total dietary calcium intake categories, as well as the differences in % fat mass by total dietary calcium intake and muscle strength index categories, controlling for different sets of confounders. A mediator analysis was conducted to test if the relationship between dietary calcium intake and fat mass percentage was explained by muscle strength. Data on the fat mass percentage, dietary calcium intake, and muscle strength index as the sum of the standardized z-score of the standing long jump and z-score of handgrip/weight were collected. The muscle strength index was significantly better in young adults with higher dietary calcium intake. Moreover, the fat mass percentage was significantly lower in those with a higher dietary calcium intake and a better muscle strength index. Finally, the relationship between dietary calcium intake and fat mass percentage was fully mediated by muscle strength (z = −1.90; p < 0.05), explaining 33.33% of this relationship. This study suggests that both a major dietary calcium intake and muscle strength are associated with fat mass percentage. Moreover, muscle strength mediates the link between dietary calcium intake and fat mass percentage. Therefore, both high dietary calcium intake and exercise activities aimed at improving muscle strength levels may help to prevent the cardiometabolic risk associated with an excess of fat mass in young people.

The Relationship

Studies investigating the effect of the caudal-type homeobox protein 2 (Cdx2) polymorphism in the vitamin D receptor gene and calcium intake on bone mass have shown inconsistent results. This study investigated whether the effect of calcium intake on peak bone mass is affected by Cdx2 polymorphism in young Japanese women. A cross-sectional study of 500 young women was conducted. Dietary intake was assessed by the Food Frequency Questionnaire. The osteo sono-assessment index (OSI), assessed by the qualitative ultrasound method, was used as a bone mass index. The subjects were divided into two groups by the median calcium intake. The OSI was not different among Cdx2 genotypes and between calcium groups (p = 0.960, p = 0.191, respectively). The interaction between calcium and Cdx2 genotypes on the OSI approached significance (GG versus GA and AA genotypes, p = 0.092). The difference in the OSI between calcium groups was significant in the GG genotype (p = 0.028), but not in the GA or AA genotypes (p = 0.501, p = 0.306, respectively). Adjustment for covariates (body mass index and physical activity) did not change the results. In conclusion, the relationship between dietary calcium intake and peak bone mass may vary according to Cdx2 polymorphism.
