The aim of the current investigation was to investigate any potential effect of fasting plasma adiponectin concentration on bone tissue, and to find possible relationships of fasting plasma adiponectin level with different body composition, insulin sensitivity and physical performance parameters in a group of healthy perimenopausal women. Twenty-one premenopausal and 17 early postmenopausal women participated in this study. The women were matched for body mass index (BMI) and level of mean daily energy expenditure. Women had similar adiponectin (8.4 +/- 3.9 vs. 9.9 +/- 5.4 microg/ml) and leptin values (12.0 +/- 7.7 vs. 14.0 +/- 8.2 ng/ml) before and after menopause. Significant relationships were observed between plasma adiponectin and bone mineral content, total bone mineral density (BMD) and lumbar spine BMD values (r > - 0.36; p < 0.05). Furthermore, adiponectin had a significant negative association with total BMD (beta = - 1.228; p = 0.004) and lumbar spine BMD (beta = - 0.312; p = 0.005) independent of the influence that other measured body compositional, hormonal or physical performance factors may exert on BMD. Adiponectin was also significantly related to waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (beta = - 2.300; p = 0.002) and fasting insulin resistance index (FIRI) (beta = - 0.006; p = 0.007) in separate regression models. No relationship was observed between leptin and measured bone, physical performance and insulin resistance values. Leptin significantly correlated to BMI (beta = 0.018; p = 0.034), lean body mass (beta = 0.025; p = 0.024) and fat mass (beta = 0.019; p = 0.001) in separate regression models. In conclusion, the results of present study show that circulating adiponectin appears to exert an independent effect on BMD in perimenopausal women and may represent a link between adipose tissue and bone mineral density. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate bone mineral density (BMD) in the growing human mandible by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, comparing densitometric data with the nature of the dentition and hence, indirectly, with variation of mechanical stresses. Postero-anterior scans were performed on 58 dried mandibles (between 15 months and 14 years) by a Hologic QDR 1000 X-ray densitometer with "Ultra-Hi-Resolution" software (Hologic Inc., Waltham, MA). The analyses were performed on a polygonal area corresponding to the infero-median region of the mandibular body, and divided into three sections. The sample was divided into two groups according to the appearance of the first permanent molar. A high correlation is detectable between BMD values and age in the group with decidual dentition, while BMD values are significantly less correlated with age in the group with mixed dentition. There are no significant differences between the BMD values of males and females. 相似文献

Osteoporosis is a complication of permanent androgen deprivation in men with prostate carcinoma, following either bilateral orchiectomy or treatment with GnRH agonists. The present approach to the problem of osteoporosis includes prevention, adequate follow-up and appropriate treatment as an imperative of contemporary urological and endocrinological management of these patients. Bone densitometry was performed in 18 patients who were on GnRH agonists treatment during 1-3 years. The patients under therapy were followed clinically, PSA (prostate-specific antigen) values were determined and bone scintigraphy was performed. The bone mineral density values in 13 patients indicated osteopenia, whereas in one patient the finding was compatible with osteoporosis. Four patients had normal bone mineral density findings. Bone densitometry should be performed before initiation of treatment with GnRH agonists in order to quantify the therapy-related bone loss. Prevention of development of osteoporosis and its complications depends on the assessment of pharmacological treatment in this group of patients, including e.g. bisphosphonates and possible intermittent androgen deprivation. 相似文献

Osteoporosis has been described extensively in adult thalassemics. Fewer studies have been reported in thalassemic children. In this article, we measured the bone mineral density (BMD) of Lebanese beta-thalassemic children before institution of a balanced transfusion-chelation regimen, in comparison with that of healthy controls, and studied its correlation with various demographic and biological parameters. Both groups, controls and thalassemics were comparable with respect to age, sex, socioeconomic and regional distribution. On the other hand, thalassemics had a significantly lower height age (p<0.001), lower bone age (p=0.001), lower sexual maturation (p=0.004), lower absolute BMD values and larger negative BMD-Z scores (p<0.001). Within the thalassemic group, BMD correlated significantly with luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol and testosterone values, as well as with the pretransfusion hematocrit, but not with other endocrine or bone metabolism parameters. We conclude that Lebanese beta-thalassemic children have a significantly lower BMD than their healthy counterparts due, in part, to their slower physical development. A major contributor seems to be the low-transfusion regimen followed by these patients, as well as the endocrine dysfunction which was detected in about 25% of them. 相似文献

In order to identify genetic effects of allelic variation on bone mineral density (BMD), association studies have been performed recently. Examining the relation between PvuII and XbaI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLPs) at the estrogen receptor (ER alpha) gene and BMD, in women or men, have yielded conflicting results. We analyzed the association between this polymorphism and BMD Z score values of cancellous bone at the 3rd finger in 344 members of nuclear families of European population, Chuvasha, living in Russia. The population sample included 183 males, aged 18-84, and 161 females, aged 23-79. The analysis has been performed separately for both sexes and for both generations (parents and offspring). We used a novel direct haplotyping method, which determines simultaneously each of the PvuII and XbaI RFLPs and their relation to each other. The haplotypes were represented as the combination of both polymorphic sites on the same chromosome, by using P/p and X/x for PvuII and XbaI restriction sites, respectively. The subjects were classified into 3 groups of genotypes: A = PXPX (homozygote for the PX haplotype); B = PXPx, PXpx (the heterozygotes for the PX haplotype); C = PxPx, Pxpx, pxpx (genotypes that are lacking the PX haplotype). The PXPX genotype (A) was associated with higher BMD Z score values in comparison to the genotypes that are lacking the PX haplotype (C), in total males [0.618 vs. -0.133 (p = 0.004)] and for the "sons" generation [0.724 vs. -0.198 (p = 0.02)]. Similar tendency was observed for the "fathers" generation (0.539 vs. -0.085), though the difference did not approach statistical significance (p = 0.087). These findings were not found in the female samples, nor in the "mothers" or "daughters" generations. The question if there are differences in the mode of action of estrogen through its receptor on bone mass, between the genders or between the males' generations, have to be further investigated. 相似文献

The peak bone mass and the rate of bone loss are in part genetically determined. It has been suggested that bone mineral density (BMD) may be related to allelic variation in the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene locus. ApoE is important in the receptor-mediated clearance of chylomicron particles from the plasma, Apo E4 having the highest and Apo E2 the lowest receptor affinity. Chylomicrons are the main carrier of vitamin K in the plasma; vitamin K plays an important role in the carboxylation of osteocalcin. We have tested the hypothesis that persons with E4 variant would have lower BMD and increased bone turnover than those with E2 variant. A total of 18 ApoE 2/2 and ApoE 4/4 homozygotes were selected from 873 patients who were examined for the ApoE genotype. BMD in lumbar vertebral, femoral neck and distal forearm was measured and plasma concentrations of osteocalcin and C-terminal fragments of collagen (CTx) were determined. BMD values (expressed as T-score) at the three specified sites were -0.12+/-1.72, -0.52+/-1.32 and -0.52+/-0.81 in ApoE 2/2 group and -0.24+/-1.22, 0.00+/-0.84 and -0.17+/-1.07 in the ApoE 4/4 group. Plasma osteocalcin and CTx were within normal limits in both groups. In conclusion, we did not observe any association of ApoE genotype with BMD and biochemical markers of bone metabolism in ApoE 2/2 and ApoE 4/4 homozygotes. 相似文献

Pelvic fractures resulting from automotive side impacts are associated with high mortality and morbidity, as well as substantial economic costs. Previous experimental studies have produced varying results regarding the tolerance of the pelvis to lateral force and compression. While bone mineral density (BMD) has been shown to correlate with fracture loads in the proximal femur, no such correlation has been established for the pelvis. Presently, we studied the relationships between total hip BMD and impact response parameters in lateral impacts of twelve isolated human pelves. The results indicated that total hip BMD significantly correlated with fracture force, Fmax, and maximum ring compression, Cmax, of the fractured pelves. These findings are evidence that BMD may be useful in assessing the risk of pelvic fracture in automotive side impacts. Poor correlation was observed between total hip BMD and maximum viscous response, (VC)max, energy at fracture, Epeak, and time to fracture, tpeak. Mean Fmax and calculated tolerances for Cmax and (VC)max were lower than those established in previous studies using full cadavers, likely a result of our removal of soft tissues from the pelves prior to impact. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: Osteopenia and osteoporosis because of hyperprolactinaemia caused by prolactinoma may be followed by an increased risk of fracture. There are no data on the bone effects of functional hyperprolactinaemia. The aim was to assess the influence of hyperprolactinaemia of various origins on bone turnover and density in different skeletal sites. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study was carried out in 75 women (aged 30.53 +/- 7.8): Group I--32 women with prolactinoma and Group II--43 women with functional hyperprolactinaemia. Both groups of patients were subdivided into those with hypogonadism and those with normal gonadal function. The control group consisted of 29 healthy women aged (33.59 +/- 4.7). In all subjects PRL and bone turnover markers (BAP, OC, ICTP) were studied. BMD measurements (lumbar spine, forearm, proximal femur and total body) were carried out using DXA. RESULTS: Higher PRL concentrations were observed in patients than in controls. The values of bone turnover markers (BAP, ICTP) were shown to be higher in patient groups and subgroups than in controls. In patients with prolactinoma lumbar spine BMD was lower than in patients with functional hyperprolactinaemia and controls. Total body BMD was also lower, albeit to a lesser extent. CONCLUSIONS: Hyperprolactinaemia caused by prolactinoma in women influences bone metabolism unfavourably, more by the impact on the activity of bone turnover markers than on BMD. This provides an opportunity for earlier assessment of bone metabolism disturbances before the BMD changes can be observed. Functional hyperprolactinaemia does not determine such a harmful effect on bone metabolism as hyperprolactinemia due to prolactinoma. 相似文献

We performed a comparative study of bone mechanical properties in the radii of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), humans (Homo sapiens), and Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata) using peripheral quantitative computed tomography. We investigated: (1)cortical bone area relative to the total periosteal
area (PrA); (2) trabecular bone area relative to PrA; (3) cortical bone density; and (4) trabecular bone density. The cortical
bone area index for chimpanzees was almost the same as that of Japanese macaques, whereas the equivalent value in humans was
about the two-fifths that of the others. Values for the other three properties were constant among these three catarrhine
species. Chimpanzees do not particularly resemble humans, but are more similar to digitigrade macaques in terms of bone properties.
The constant trabecular bone area index and trabecular density value in these species may suggest that a certain amount of
trabecular bone (20–30% of total bone area at the distal 4% level of the forearm) is necessary to achieve normal bone turnover.
The physiological metabolism of bone, including cortical bone density, might be conserved in these catarrhines.

Operation of the Mayak plutonium production association resulted in radioactive contamination of a part of Chelyabinsk Region
in the 1950–1960s. Significant gas-aerosol emission of 131I occurred since 1948; in 1957, a radiation accident resulted in 90Sr contamination of large territories. This paper presents comparison of the bone mineral density of persons who lived on
territories with different levels of 90Sr-soil contamination with that of a control group. It was found that in 1970–1975, the bone mineral density, estimated from
the mineral content in bone samples, in residents of contaminated areas born in 1936–1952 was significantly lower compared
to the control group. For persons born in 1880–1935, such differences were not found. It was shown that the decrease in the
bone mineral density was not related to 90Sr exposure of osteogenic cells in the dose range from 0.1 to 1300 mGy: the coefficient of correlation between individual
90Sr doses and bone mineral contents is not significant. The decrease in bone mineral density of persons born in 1936–1952 may
be associated with exposure of the thyroid and parathyroid glands (systemic regulators of calcium metabolism) to 131I from gas-aerosol emissions from Mayak. The highest levels of gas-aerosol emissions occurred in 1948–1954 and coincided with
the growth and development of the thyroid gland, characterized by intensive accumulation of 131I, and with the growth and maturation of the skeleton of persons born in the given calendar years. 相似文献

CONTEXT:
Osteoporosis is a polygenic, multifactorial disease that is characterized by demineralization of bone, and thus presented with decreasing bone mineral mass. Vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms in the 3’-end region (as determined by the enzymes BsmI and ApaI) have been inconsistently associated with bone mineral mass. Another important VDR start codon polymorphism (as determined by the enzyme FokI) has been found to be related to adult bone mineral density (BMD) in pre-and post-menopausal American women.AIMS:
This study aims to investigate the prevalence of the FokI VDR gene polymorphism in Jordanian perimenopausal women and study its relationship with bone mineral density.MATERIALS AND METHODS:
DNA was isolated from 90 controls (Mean age = 50.41 ± 1.29 y), and 120 patients with symptomatic vertebral fractures (Mean age = 49.14 ± 3.19 y). Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of FokI was performed on DNA samples.STATISTICAL ANALYSIS:
Data was analyzed using SPSS v19 and Microsoft Excel 2007.RESULTS:
The results showed that in controls, the FF (−0.70 ± 0.51) genotype is associated with high lumbar spine BMD Z-score as compared to Ff (−1.25 ± 0.26) and ff (−1.66 ± 0.47) genotypes (P = 0.0095). In patients, the ff genotype was associated with lower lumbar spine BMD in T-score (−2.31 ± 0.17) and Z-score (−1.56 ± 0.09) genotypes (P = 0.031). No significant association was seen in the femoral neck BMD.CONCLUSION:
FokI polymorphism may be associated with low BMD in our studied population; however, further studies including other polymorphisms and large sample number are needed. 相似文献17.

The aim of the study was to compare the bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition between ambulatory male MS patients and control subjects and to evaluate the relationships among body composition, motor disability, glucocorticoids (GC) use, and bone health. Body composition and BMD were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in 104 ambulatory men with MS (mean age: 45.2 years) chronically treated with low-dose GC and in 54 healthy age-matched men. Compared to age-matched controls, MS patients had a significantly lower total body bone mineral content (TBBMC) and BMD at all measured sites except for the radius. Sixty five male MS patients (62.5 %) met the criteria for osteopenia and twenty six of them (25 %) for osteoporosis. The multivariate analysis showed a consistent dependence of bone measures (except whole body BMD) on BMI. The total leg lean mass % was as an independent predictor of TBBMC. The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS), cumulative GC dose and age were independent determinants for BMD of the proximal femur. We conclude that decreasing mobility in male MS patients is associated with an increasing degree of osteoporosis and muscle wasting in the lower extremities. The chronic low-dose GC treatment further contributes to bone loss. 相似文献

Introduction
Osteoporosis of the axial skeleton is a known complication of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), but bone loss affecting the peripheral skeleton is less studied. This study on volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) and bone microarchitecture in AS was conducted to compare peripheral vBMD in AS patients with that in healthy controls, to study vBMD in axial compared with peripheral bone, and to explore the relation between vertebral fractures, spinal osteoproliferation, and peripheral bone microarchitecture and density.Methods
High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HRpQCT) of ultradistal radius and tibia and QCT and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of lumbar spine were performed in 69 male AS patients (NY criteria). Spinal radiographs were assessed for vertebral fractures and syndesmophyte formation (mSASSS). The HRpQCT measurements were compared with the measurements of healthy controls.Results
The AS patients had lower cortical vBMD in radius (P = 0.004) and lower trabecular vBMD in tibia (P = 0.033), than did the controls. Strong correlations were found between trabecular vBMD in lumbar spine, radius (rS = 0.762; P < 0.001), and tibia (rS = 0.712; P < 0.001).When compared with age-matched AS controls, patients with vertebral fractures had lower lumbar cortical vBMD (-22%; P = 0.019), lower cortical cross-sectional area in radius (-28.3%; P = 0.001) and tibia (-24.0%; P = 0.013), and thinner cortical bone in radius (-28.3%; P = 0.001) and tibia (-26.9%; P = 0.016).mSASSS correlated negatively with trabecular vBMD in lumbar spine (rS = -0.620; P < 0.001), radius (rS = -0.400; p = 0.001) and tibia (rS = -0.475; p < 0.001) and also with trabecular thickness in radius (rS = -0.528; P < 0.001) and tibia (rS = -0.488; P < 0.001).Adjusted for age, syndesmophytes were significantly associated with decreasing trabecular vBMD, but increasing cortical vBMD in lumbar spine, but not with increasing cortical thickness or density in peripheral bone. Estimated lumbar vBMD by DXA correlated with trabecular vBMD measured by QCT (rS = 0.636; P < 0.001).Conclusions
Lumbar osteoporosis, syndesmophytes, and vertebral fractures were associated with both lower vBMD and deteriorated microarchitecture in peripheral bone. The results indicate that trabecular bone loss is general, whereas osteoproliferation is local in AS. 相似文献19.

Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is often associated with low bone mineral density (BMD). An open-labeled, prospective trial was conducted to determine whether alendronate (ALN), 10 mg daily, maintains or improves BMD in patients with advanced PHPT. All patients had symptomatic PHPT and met surgical guidelines however refused surgery. Nineteen patients was treated with alendronate for 2 years. The primary outcome index, BMD, was measured at the lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN) every 6 months by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Serum calcium, phosphorous and PTH, and urinary calcium excretion were monitored every 3 months. Treatment with alendronate over 2 years was associated with a significant (5.3+/-0.4%; p<0.01) increase in LS BMD in comparison with baseline. FN BMD increased significantly at 24 months with alendronate by 2.5%+/-0.7 (p<0.01) from baseline. Serum calcium, phosphorus and PTH, and urine calcium excretion did not change with alendronate therapy. In PHPT, alendronate significantly increases BMD at the LS and FN at 24 months from baseline values with stable serum calcium and PTH levels. Alendronate may be a useful alternative to parathyroidectomy in symptomatic PHPT among those with low BMD, who are candidates for surgery but either decline or for whom surgery is contraindicated. 相似文献
