Most patients with Turner syndrome (TS) need hormone replacement therapy because of hypergonadotropic hypogonadism; individual outcomes, however, are highly variable. Our objective was to assess the influence of five estrogen receptor 1 gene (ESR1) polymorphisms (rs543650, rs1038304, rs2046210, rs2234693 and rs9340799) on adult height, breast development, uterine volume and bone mineral density (BMD). We studied 91 TS patients from a tertiary hospital using adult estrogen dose. In our group, ESR1 rs2234693 was associated with femoral neck and total hip BMD, and it accounted for around 10% of BMD variability in both sites (P < 0.01). Patients homozygous for C allele in this polymorphism had significantly lower femoral neck BMD (0.699 ± 0.065 g/cm2 vs 0.822 ± 0.113 g/cm2, P = 0.008) and total hip BMD (0.777 ± 0.118 g/cm2 vs 0.903 ± 0.098 g/cm2, P = 0.009) than patients homozygous for T allele. The other four ESR1 polymorphisms were not able to predict any of the above estrogen therapy outcomes in an isolated manner. Patients homozygous for the haplotype GCG formed by polymorphisms rs543650, rs2234693 and rs9340799 had an even more significantly lower femoral neck BMD (0.666 ± 0.049 vs 0.820 ± 0.105 g/cm2, P = 0.0047) and total hip BMD (0.752 ± 0.093 vs 0.908 ± 0.097 g/cm2, P = 0.0029) than patients homozygous for haplotypes with a T allele in rs2234693. In conclusion, homozygosity for C allele in ESR1 rs2234693 and/or for GCG haplotype appears to be associated with lower femoral neck and total hip BMD. We believe that the identification of polymorphisms related to estrogen outcomes may contribute to individualization of treatment in TS.

Abstract Context Teriparatide and denosumab are effective treatments for osteoporosis and typically reserved as second-line options after patients have used bisphosphonates. However, limited head-to-head comparative effectiveness data exist between teriparatide and denosumab. Objective We compared changes in bone mineral density (BMD) between groups treated with teriparatide or denosumab after using bisphosphonates, focusing on the change in BMD while on either drug over 2 years. Design Observational cohort study using electronic medical records from two academic medical centers in the United States. Participants The study population included osteoporotic patients >45 years who received bisphosphonates >1 year before switching to teriparatide or denosumab. Outcome Measures Annualized BMD change from baseline at the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck. Results Patients treated with teriparatide (n = 110) were compared with those treated with denosumab (n = 105); the mean (SD) age was 70 (10) years and median duration (interquartile range) of bisphosphonate use was 7.0 (5.6 to 9.7) years. Compared with denosumab users, teriparatide users had higher annualized BMD change at the spine by 1.3% (95% CI 0.02, 2.7%) but lower at the total hip by −2.2% (95% CI −2.9 to −1.5%) and the femoral neck by −1.1% (95% CI −2.1 to −0.1%). Those who switched to teriparatide had a transient loss of hip BMD for the first year, with no overall increase in the total hip BMD over 2 years. Conclusions Among patients who use long-term bisphosphonates, the decision of switching to teriparatide should be made with caution, especially for patients at high risk of hip fracture.

AbstractManagement of diabetes-related foot ulceration (DFU) includes pressure offloading resulting in a period of reduced activity. The metabolic effects of this are unknown. This study aims to investigate changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition 12 weeks after hospitalisation for DFU. A longitudinal, prospective, observational study of 22 people hospitalised for DFU was conducted. Total body, lumbar spine, hip and forearm BMD, and total lean and fat mass were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) during and 12 weeks after hospitalisation for DFU. Significant losses in total hip BMD of the ipsilateral limb (− 1.7%, p < 0.001), total hip BMD of the contralateral limb (− 1.4%, p = 0.005), femoral neck BMD of the ipsilateral limb (− 2.8%, p < 0.001) and femoral neck BMD of the contralateral limb (− 2.2%, p = 0.008) were observed after 12 weeks. Lumbar spine and forearm BMD were unchanged. HbA1c improved from 75 mmol/mol (9.2%) to 64 mmol/mol (8.0%) (p = 0.002). No significant changes to lean and fat mass were demonstrated. Total hip and femoral neck BMD decreased bilaterally 12 weeks after hospitalisation for DFU. Future research is required to confirm the persistence and clinical implications of these losses.

Abstract Background Phthalates are endocrine-disrupting chemicals that could disrupt normal physiologic function, triggering detrimental impacts on bone. We evaluated associations between urinary phthalate biomarkers and BMD in postmenopausal women participating in the prospective Women’s Health Initiative (WHI). Methods We included WHI participants enrolled in the BMD substudy and selected for a nested case-control study of phthalates and breast cancer (N=1255). We measured thirteen phthalate biomarkers and creatinine in 2-3 urine samples per participant collected over 3 years, when all participants were cancer-free. Total hip and femoral neck BMD were measured at baseline and year 3, concurrent with urine collection, via dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. We fit multivariable generalized estimating equation models and linear mixed effects models to estimate cross-sectional and longitudinal associations, respectively, with stratification on postmenopausal hormone therapy (HT) use. Results In cross-sectional analyses, mono-3-carboxypropyl phthalate and the sum of di-isobutyl phthalate metabolites were inversely associated with total hip BMD among HT non-users, but not among HT users. Longitudinal analyses showed greater declines in total hip BMD among HT non-users and with highest concentrations of mono-3-carboxyoctyl phthalate (-1.80%, 95% CI -2.81 – -0.78%) or mono-carboxynonyl phthalate (-1.84%, 95% CI -2.80 – -0.89%); similar associations were observed with femoral neck BMD. Among HT users, phthalate biomarkers were not associated with total hip or femoral neck BMD change. Discussion Certain phthalate biomarkers are associated with greater percent decreases in total hip and femoral neck BMD. These findings suggest that phthalate exposure may have clinically important effects on BMD, and potentially fracture risk.

ABSTRACTBackgroundThe effect of long-term inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) therapy on the bone health of older adults remains unclear due to its possible impact on bone mineral density (BMD).ObjectiveTo evaluate, cross-sectionally and longitudinally, the impact of ICS use on BMD in postmenopausal women with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).MethodsWe used a population-based bone densitometry registry linked with administrative health data of the province of Manitoba, Canada (1999–2013), to identify women with diagnosed asthma or COPD. ICS use was defined as cumulative dispensed days prior to baseline BMD (cross-sectional analysis), and medication possession ratio (MPR) between two BMD measurements (longitudinal analysis). Results were adjusted for multiple covariates including the underlying respiratory diagnosis and its severity.ResultsIn the cross sectional analysis, compared with non-users, women with the highest tertile of prior ICS exposure had lower baseline BMD at the femoral neck (-0.09 standard deviations [SD] below a healthy young adult, 95% CI: −0.16, −0.02) and total hip (-0.14 SD, 95% CI: −0.22, −0.05), but not at the lumbar spine. Longitudinally, the highest tertile of ICS exposure was associated with a slight decline in total hip BMD relative to non-users (-0.02 SD/year, 95% CI: −0.04, −0.01), with no significant effect at the femoral neck and lumbar spine. Middle and lower tertiles of ICS use had no significant effects.ConclusionHigh exposure to ICS was associated with a small adverse effect on baseline hip BMD and total hip BMD loss in post-menopausal women with asthma or COPD.

Objective: The aim of the study was to assess adding vs. switching to teriparatide 20μg/d in patients on alendronate or raloxifene. Design: We conducted a randomized, open-label trial. Patients and Interventions: Postmenopausal women with osteoporosis on alendronate or raloxifene for at least 18 months added teriparatide (Add groups) or switched to teriparatide (Switch groups) for 18 months. Main Outcome Measures: We measured bone turnover markers (BTM) and bone mineral density (BMD). Results: In the alendronate stratum, increases in BTM were smaller in the Add vs. Switch group [6-month PINP (64 vs. 401%); bone ALP (15 vs. 71%); βCTX (27 vs. 250%); all P &lt; 0.001]. However, at 6 months, total hip BMD increased more in the Add vs. Switch group (1.4 vs. −0.8%; P = 0.002). In the Add vs. Switch group, 18-month BMD increments were higher in lumbar spine (8.4 vs. 4.8%; P = 0.003) and total hip (3.2 vs. 0.9%; P = 0.02), but not in femoral neck (2.7 vs. 2.3%; P = 0.75). In the raloxifene stratum, increases in BTM were also smaller in the Add vs. Switch group [6-month PINP (131 vs. 259%; P &lt; 0.001), bone ALP (31 vs. 44%; P = 0.035), and βCTX (67 vs. 144%; P = 0.001)]. At 6 months, total hip BMD increase was greater in the Add vs. Switch group (1.8 vs. 0.5%; P = 0.028). At 18 months, increases in lumbar spine (9.2 vs. 8.1%), total hip (2.8 vs. 1.8%), and femoral neck (3.8 vs. 2.2%) were not significantly different between groups. Conclusions: In women with osteoporosis treated with antiresorptives, greater bone turnover increases were achieved by switching to teriparatide, whereas greater BMD increases were achieved by adding teriparatide. In patients treated with alendronate or raloxifene, adding teriparatide results in a greater bone mineral density response, and appears to be at least as safe as switching to teriparatide.

Abstract Background The prevalence of osteoporosis in patients who undergo a primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is increasing. Low bone mineral density (BMD) is related to unfavorable outcomes following TKA such as migration of uncemented tibial components. Postoperative blood loss in TKA is an important complication. Non-modifying predicting factors for postoperative blood loss in patients undergoing primary TKA need further elucidation. Studies on the association between BMD and blood loss after TKA are limited. We aimed to demonstrate the relationship between BMD and postoperative drainage volume following primary TKA. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted between January 2014 and August 2020. A total of 119 primary varus osteoarthritis knees with BMD results were included in the study. Patients with secondary causes of osteoporosis were excluded. Results The median postoperative drainage volume of participants in the normal total hip BMD group and the normal trochanter BMD group was higher than that of patients in the low total hip BMD group and the low trochanter BMD group (285.0 ml vs 230.0 ml, P = 0.003; 282.5 ml vs 240.0 ml, P = 0.013, respectively). Multivariate regression analyses showed that operative time, spinal anesthesia, and normal total hip BMD status were significant predictive factors associated with increased postoperative drainage volume (P = 0.014, 0.022, and 0.013, respectively). No association was identified between the lumbar spine BMD status and postoperative drainage volume. Conclusions The relationship between BMD and postoperative blood loss in primary TKA was identified in this study. Normal total hip BMD was found to be associated with an increased postoperative drainage volume after primary TKA compared with low BMD.

Purpose: This meta-analysis aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of teriparatide vs. bisphosphonates in the management of osteoporosis. Methods: A total of 1,967 patients from eight randomized controlled trials were analyzed; outcomes included bone mineral density (BMD) of the femoral neck, total hip and lumbar spine, vertebral and nonvertebral fractures and any adverse event. A subgroup analysis of treatment effectiveness was performed according to the etiology of osteoporosis; i.e., glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO) vs. post-menopausal osteoporosis (PO). Results: Teriparatide increased the BMD of the lumbar spine, femoral neck and total hip to a greater extent than bisphosphonates. Patients treated with teriparatide also had a lower risk of vertebral fractures compared with bisphosphonates; however, no difference in risk of nonvertebral fractures (or adverse events) was found. GIO subgroups showed larger increases in BMD of the lumbar spine, total hip and femoral neck in patients treated with teriparatide compared with bisphosphonates. The PO subgroup showed larger increases in BMD of the lumbar spine in patients treated with teriparatide compared with bisphosphonates. Patients in the GIO subgroup (but not the PO subgroup) were less likely to suffer a vertebral fracture on teriparatide as compared with bisphosphonates. In contrast, no significant difference in the percentage of nonvertebral fractures was noted between the two types of treatment for either subgroup. Conclusion: Teriparatide significantly increased the BMD of lumbar spine, total hip and femoral neck, particularly in GIO-induced osteoporosis. Teriparatide did not lower the risk of nonvertebral fractures when compared with bisphosphonates.

Prevalence Of Osteoporosis

To assess the prevalence of osteoporosis in young men with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) and to investigate the changes of BMD and metabolic parameters, a total of 22 young male patients with HH and 20 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. BMD, biochemical, and hormonal parameters were measured in two groups. Osteoporosis was more prevalent in HH patients (45.45%) than the control subjects (10.00%) (P<0.001). The patients with HH had lower BMD in lumbar spine 2–4, femoral neck, and total hip (P<0.001, for all) and higher fasting insulin (P=0.001), HOMA-IR (P=0.002), and SHBG (P<0.001) compared to the controls. After 6 months of pulsatile gonadorelin treatment, BMI (P=0.021) and BMD in lumbar spine 2–4, femoral neck, and total hip (P=0.002,P=0.003, andP=0.003, resp.) increased dramatically and total cholesterol (P=0.034), fasting insulin (P=0.025), HOMA-IR (P=0.021), and SHBG (P=0.001) decreased significantly in HH patients. The study shows a higher prevalence of osteoporosis in young men with HH. Long-term pulsatile gonadorelin treatment indicates a positive effect on BMD and metabolic parameters of HH patients.

Abstract Background The relationship between renal function and bone mineral density (BMD) is controversial. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship of renal function with BMD and osteoporosis risk in healthy postmenopausal Chinese women. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in 776 healthy postmenopausal Chinese women. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure BMDs. Clinical, demographic, and biochemical data were obtained at the time of image acquisition. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using a Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation. Results Women with eGFR levels of at least 90 ml/min/1.73m2 had a lower prevalence of osteoporosis compared with women with decreased eGFR levels (60 ml/min/1.73 m2 ≤ eGFR < 90.0 ml/min/1.73 m2). BMDs at femoral neck and total hip were significantly lower in the lower eGFR class than the higher class (0.717 ± 0.106 vs 0.744 ± 0.125 g/cm2, P < 0.01; 0.796 ± 0.116 vs 0.823 ± 0.129 g/cm2, P < 0.01, respectively). eGFR was positively correlated with BMDs at femoral neck and total hip in unadjusted analysis (P < 0.05). After controlling for age, menopausal duration and body mass index (BMI), decreased eGFR was not associated with osteoporosis risk. Conclusions After adjustments for age, menopausal duration and BMI, the decline in renal function was not independently associated with osteoporosis risk in healthy postmenopausal Chinese women.
