Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Aim To investigate the role of markers of vascular inflammation, vitamin D, parathyroid hormone as predictors of increased pulse-wave velocity (PWV) and degenerative bone changes in postmenopausal women with arterial hypertension (AH). Methods 164 females were examined. Gr.1 included 42 healthy individuals, Gr.2 - 58 patients with AH and Gr.3 - 64 postmenopausal women with AH and osteoporosis. Parameters of blood pressure monitoring; PWV, osteodensitometry (T-Score); inflammatory markers: hsCRP, TNFα, homocysteine, IL-1β, 6, 8, endothelin-1; lipid profile parameters; sex and parathyroid hormones, vitamin D  were measured. Results In Gr.3 excess levels of PWV, hsCRP, homocysteine, IL8, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, endothelin-1 and parathyroid hormone was detected with decrease in the level of sex hormones and vitamin D. Besides, negative correlations of T-Score with age, PWV, duration of menopause, IL-6, hsCRP were registered; positive correlations between PWV with IL6, LDL cholesterol, hsCRP, endothelin-1, DBP variability were found. The logistic regression method revealed the main markers that affect increase of PWV, such as hsCRP and endothelin-1.Rise of each marker by unit of measurement leads to increase in PWV by 1.3 times and 2.4%, respectively. In Gr.2 increase in PWV level of more than 12.05 m/s was associated with 3.8-fold increase in the risk of osteoporosis. In Gr.3 increase in PWV level on 1 m/s was associated with 6 fold increase in the risk of osteoporosis. Conclusions Elevated levels of PWV are associated with markers of inflammation, levels of parathyroid hormone, vitamin D, T-Score and may be part of the pathogenesis of the cardiovascular continuum in postmenopausal women, which will require an individual approach to the treatment of AH with comorbid metabolic disorders.

Objective: To compare the serum levels of vitamin D, vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) calcium and phosphate in normal, osteopenic and osteoporotic postmenopausal women categorized on the basis of bone mineral density (BMD) scores. Methods: A cross sectional study carried out from May 2017 to August 2018. BMD measured by Dual energy X-ray Absorptiometry categorized women (aged 20- 70 years) into normal (n=37) (T score ≥ -1.0) osteopenic (n=25) (-2.5< T score, < -1) and osteoporotic (n= 26) (T score < -2.5) according to WHO classification. Serum concentrations of vitamin D, VDBP, calcium, phosphate analyzed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay were compared by Analysis of Variance Results: In normal females higher levels of vitamin D and VDBP were observed [15.82 (8 - 69.18), 469.9 (269.57 - 875.55)] vs. osteopenic [(7.45 (4.66 - 15.1), 296.05 (232.58 - 420.23)] and osteoporotic women [(7.25 (3.97 - 17.49), 272.94 (202.23 - 351.24)]; [median interquartile range]; p value < 0.0001. Conclusion: Vitamin D and VDBP are linked with bone health and estimation of VDBP appears to be a valuable tool for the assessment of increased bone loss and possible risks of bone fractures especially in postmenopausal women.

AbstractWhether supplemental Ca has similar effects to dietary Ca on vascular and bone markers is unknown. The present trial investigated the feasibility of applying dietary and supplemental interventions in a randomised-controlled trial (RCT) aiming to estimate the effect of supplemental Ca as compared with dietary Ca on vascular and bone markers in postmenopausal women. In total, thirteen participants were randomised to a Ca supplement group (CaSuppl) (750 mg Ca from CaCO3+450 mg Ca from food+20 µg vitamin D supplement) or a Ca diet group (CaDiet) (1200 mg Ca from food+10 µg vitamin D supplement). Participants were instructed on Ca consumption targets at baseline. Monthly telephone follow-ups were conducted to assess adherence to interventions (±20 % of target total Ca) using the multiple-pass 24-h recall method and reported pill count. Measurements of arterial stiffness, peripheral blood pressure and body composition were performed at baseline and after 6 and 12 months in all participants who completed the trial (n9). Blood and serum biomarkers were measured at baseline and at 12 months. Both groups were compliant to trial interventions (±20 % of target total Ca intake; pill count ≥80 %). CaSuppl participants maintained a significantly lower average dietary Ca intake compared with CaDiet participants throughout the trial (453 (sd187) mg/dv.1241 (sd319) mg/d;P<0·001). There were no significant differences in selected vascular outcomes between intervention groups over time. Our pilot trial demonstrated the feasibility of conducting a large-scale RCT to estimate the differential effects of supplemental and dietary Ca on vascular and bone health markers in healthy postmenopausal women.
