Background: Osteoporosis being a silently progressing disease, the real challenge is to identify the individual at high risk of osteoporosis. Many bone turnover marker have been associated with bone loss even before occurrence of any changes in bone structure. Therefore, this study was aim to evaluate the predictive value of bone turnover marker by correlating with low bone density.Methods: This was a case control study conducted in Sikkim Manipal Institute of Medical Sciences, India. A total of 300 subjects (150 case and 150 control) both male and female between the age group of 35- 65 were enrolled. We measure one bone formation marker serum osteocalcin and two resorption marker urine hydroxyproline (OHP) and urine N- terminal telopeptides of type I collagen (NTX). Calcaneal QUS device (GE Lunar Achilles Express heel- densitometer) was used to determine the bone density.Results: A significant difference of the bone markers i.e. hydroxyproline, NTx and osteocalcin were observed between cases and control of men and women with P<0.001. These variables statistically significantly predicts bone density with F (3, 71) = 5,671, P= 0.002, R2= 0.193 and F (3, 71) = 5.292, P= 0.002, R2= 0.183 in women and men respectively.Conclusions: Study showed that bone turnover markers are able to predict low bone mass. Resorption markers NTx and OHP were the main predictor in men whereas OHP and formation marker Osteocalcin in women. Therefore, BTM measurement along with BMD can provide useful information about the changes in the bone mass which will help to predict the risk of osteoporosis.

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to investigate the bone turnover marker levels according to bisphosphonate usage and radiotherapy (RT) in cancer patients with metastases in osteolytic pattern. Patients and methods: A total of 52 patients (13 males, 39 females; median age: 52 years; range, 37 to 78 years) treated with RT for osteolytic bone metastases between April 2005 and April 2006 were retrospectively analyzed. Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP), amino-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX-I), amino-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP), osteocalcin (OC), deoxypyridinoline (DPD), pyridinoline (PYD), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), creatinine, calcium (Ca), phosphate (P), magnesium (Mg), and 24-h urine Ca levels were measured in blood and urine before the initiation of RT, six weeks and six months after RT. Results: A decrease in BAP, PINP, and creatinine levels was observed after RT (Week 6 p=0.006, Month 6 p=0.008). Sixteen patients who already used bisphosphonate before RT were excluded from statistical calculation. The remaining 36 patients who were treated with bisphosphonate after the first blood test were evaluated separately. In this group of patients, BAP, PINP, NTX, creatinine, and Ca levels significantly increased at six weeks after RT. The PINP and creatinine values significantly decreased at six months after RT. The variation between two different RT arms was assessed with repeated measures variance analysis. There was a statistically significant difference for NTX, OC, and creatinine levels between the first and second measurements. Conclusion: Radiotherapy is an effective method in the treatment of osteolytic bone metastases. Bone turnover markers can provide an objective evaluation on RT response and parallel to imaging modalities criteria for evaluation. Bisphosphonates may alter the levels of these indicators. However, in this study, there were no statistically significant differences between the levels of markers for two different RT schedules.

Abstract Purpose/introduction To compare serum levels of bone turnover markers in athletes and non-athletes, and to evaluate the relationship between serum levels of vitamin D metabolites and exercise-induced changes in biomarker levels. Methods Sixteen elite male artistic gymnasts (EG; 21.4 ± 0.8 years-old) and 16 physically active men (the control group, PAM; 20.9 ± 1.2 years-old) performed lower and upper body 30-s Wingate anaerobic tests (LBWT and UBWT, respectively). For biomarker analysis, blood samples were collected before, and 5 and 30 min after exercise. Samples for vitamin D levels were collected before exercise. N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (PINP) was analysed as a marker of bone formation. C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) was analysed as a marker of bone resorption. Results UBWT fitness readings were better in the EG group than in the PAM group, with no difference in LBWT readings between the groups. UBWT mean power was 8.8% higher in subjects with 25(OH)D3 levels over 22.50 ng/ml and in those with 24,25(OH)2D3 levels over 1.27 ng/ml. Serum CTX levels increased after both tests in the PAM group, with no change in the EG group. PINP levels did not change in either group; however, in PAM subjects with 25(OH)D3 levels above the median, they were higher than those in EG subjects. Conclusion Vitamin D metabolites affect the anaerobic performance and bone turnover markers at rest and after exercise. Further, adaptation to physical activity modulates the effect of anaerobic exercise on bone metabolism markers.

Context: Ethnic groups differ in fragility fracture risk and bone metabolism. Differences in diurnal rhythms (DRs) of bone turnover and PTH may play a role. Objective: We investigated the DRs of plasma bone turnover markers (BTMs), PTH, and 1,25(OH)2D in three groups with pronounced differences in bone metabolism and plasma PTH. Participants: Healthy Gambian, Chinese, and white British adults (ages 60–75 years; 30 per country). Interventions: Observational study with sample collection every 4 hours for 24 hours. Main Outcomes: Levels of plasma C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen, procollagen type-1 N-propeptide, N-mid osteocalcin, bone alkaline phosphatase, PTH, and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D were measured. DRs were analyzed with random-effects Fourier regression and cross-correlation and regression analyses to assess associations between DRs and fasting and 24-hour means of BTMs and PTH. Results: Concentrations of BTMs, PTH, and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D were higher in Gambians compared to other groups (P &lt; .05). The DRs were significant for all variables and groups (P &lt; .03) and were unimodal, with a nocturnal peak and a daytime nadir for BTMs, whereas PTH had two peaks. The DRs of BTMs and PTH were significantly cross-correlated for all groups (P &lt; .05). There was a significant positive association between C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen and PTH in the British and Gambian groups (P = .03), but not the Chinese group. Conclusions: Despite ethnic differences in plasma BTMs and PTH, DRs were similar. This indicates that alteration of rhythmicity and loss of coupling of bone resorption and formation associated with an elevated PTH in other studies may not uniformly occur across different populations and needs to be considered in the interpretation of PTH as a risk factor of increased bone loss.

Abstract Menopausal hormone therapy slows bone turnover and reduces the risk of osteoporotic fractures. The objective of this post hoc analysis was to evaluate bone turnover markers (BTM) in the phase 3 REPLENISH trial, which evaluated vasomotor symptoms (VMS) with an oral estradiol/progesterone (E2/P4) in postmenopausal women with a uterus. Eligible women for this analysis had ≥50 moderate to severe VMS/week, &lt;5 years since last menstrual period, and BTM measurements at baseline, and months 6 and 12. Percent changes for 3 BTM (bone specific alkaline phosphatase [BSAP], C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen [CTX-1], and N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen [PINP]) assessed by immunoassay methods were evaluated from baseline to months 6 and 12 for the 1/100, 0.5/100 and placebo groups. A total of 157 women (40–61 years, 69% White) were analyzed (56 for each 1/100 and 0.5/100; 45 for placebo). Mean baseline values ranged from 14.0–14.3 U/L for BSAP, 0.34–0.39 ng/mL for CTX-1, and 76.9–79.3 ng/mL for PINP. Mean differences in percent change from baseline versus placebo significantly decreased with both E2/P4 doses for all 3 BTM at months 6 and 12. Mean differences from placebo for E2/P4 at months 6/12 ranged from -8.1% to -17.8% for BSAP (all, P≤0.02), -30% to -41% for CTX-1 (all, P≤0.001), and -14% to -29% for PINP (all, P≤0.007). REPLENISH data provide support for a potential skeletal benefit of E2/P4 when used for the treatment of moderate to severe VMS.

ObjectiveCirculating osteoglycin may facilitate the crosstalk between bone and pancreas to empower adaptation of bone mass to whole body energy balance. We aimed to examine whether osteoglycin is associated with bone and metabolic parameters and if osteoglycin levels differ between patients with type 1 and 2 diabetes (T1D and T2D).Design and methodsA cross-sectional study of 190 patients with diabetes mellitus and stable hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (97 T1D and 93 T2D) was conducted. S-osteoglycin was analyzed by ELISA. Unpaired t-tests were performed to test differences between patients with T1D and T2D and linear regression analyses were performed to investigate associations between osteoglycin, glycemic markers, bone turnover markers and characteristics.ResultsS-osteoglycin did not differ between patients with T1D and T2D (p=0.10). No associations were present between osteoglycin and age, gender, microvascular complications, HbA1c, or plasma glucose in T1D or T2D patients (p&gt;0.05 for all). S-osteoglycin was not associated with levels of bone turnover markers (C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type-I collagen (CTX), P-procollagen type 1 amino terminal propeptide (P1NP), P-osteocalcin (OC), P-sclerostin, S-osteoprotegerin (OPG) or S-Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor Kappa beta Ligand (RANKL)) in neither T1D or T2D patients (p&gt;0.05 for all).ConclusionOsteoglycin levels were similar in T1D and T2D patients. Osteoglycin did not correlate with glucose, HbA1c or any other biochemical marker of bone turnover. Thus, we did not find evidence supporting the existence of an osteoglycin-bone-pancreas axis.Clinical Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT01870557.

Introduction: Osteoporosis has a strong genetic contribution, and several genes have been shown to influence bone mineral density. Variants in the human genome are considered important causes of differences in drug responses observed in clinical practice. In terms of bone mineral density, about 26–53% of patients do not respond to amino-bisphosphonate therapies, of which alendronate is the most widely used. Material and method: The current study is prospective, observational, analytical, longitudinal and cohort type. It included 25 postmenopausal women treated with alendronate for 1 year. Bone mineral density at lumbar spine and proximal femur was measured and bone turnover markers (C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen and procollagen 1N-terminal propeptide) were evaluated at 0 and 12 months of treatment. Six single nucleotide polymorphisms in osteoporosis-candidate genes were genotyped (FDPS rs2297480, LRP5 rs3736228, SOST rs1234612, VKORC1 rs9934438, GGPS1 rs10925503 and RANKL rs2277439). Treatment response was evaluated by percentage changes in bone mineral density and bone turnover markers. Results: The heterozygous CT of FDPS rs2297480 showed lower increases in BMD values in the lumbar spine region and the homozygous CC of the GGPS1 rs10925503 showed lower increases in terms of BMD at the total hip region. No association was found for LRP5 rs3736228, SOST rs1234612, VKORC1 rs9934438 and RANKL rs2277439. Conclusions: Romanian postmenopausal women with osteoporosis carrying the CT genotype of FDPS rs2297480 or the CC genotype of GGPS1 rs10925503 could have an unsatisfactory response to alendronate treatment.

The Impact

523 Background: Although intravenous glucocorticoid (GC) premedication (GCP) before chemotherapy (CTx) are frequently used to prevent nausea and vomiting for continuing comfortable CTx, the side effects of intermittent GCs on bone health have not yet been reported. So we designed a multicenter, prospective, observational study to evaluate the impact of periodic GCP on bone metabolism in gastrointestinal cancer (GIC) patients (pts). Methods: The eligibility criteria were as the follows: (i) histologically proven GIC. ; (ii) The duration of periodical GCP is weekly, biweekly, and triweekly. More over 4 weeks GC free intervals is not permissible. ; (iii) age over 20. The primary endpoint was to investigate the variations of bone mineral densities (BMD) at lumbar spine measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and bone turnover biomarkers, cross-linked N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX) and bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), between baseline (BL) and 16 weeks after starting CTx (16w). Results: From June 2013 to April 2015, 98 pts were enrolled. Two pts were not proven as GIC histologically. One patient (pt) was not measured on baseline DEXA. One pt was taken bisphosphonates already on BL point. Four pts were not administered CTx or GCP, and 16 pts were not measured BMD on 16w due to several reasons such as pts refusal, discontinuation of CTx, death and so on (74 pts were full analysis set). In 55 pts (74.3 % of FAS), the levels of BMD at 16w were decreased compared with BL and the average amount of BMD reduction rate was 5.83 % (-38.8 % to 31.1 %). Although no significant difference was found in the level of NTX between BL and 16w (p = 0.118), there was the significant increase of BAP level statistically (p = 0.006). There were also significant correlations between percent change in BMD and NTX, BMD and BAP, NTX and BAP (p = 0.037, 0.029, and 0.003, respectively). Conclusions: We found that periodic GCP in GIC pts caused the reduction of BMD and some influences for bone turnover. These results indicate that GCP might generate more serious osteoporosis of GIC pts during CTx. Further studies are necessary to illustrate the need to prevent GC induced osteoporosis in using GCP.
