Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) increases fracture incidence and fracture-related mortality rates (KK.Cg-Ay/J. The Jackson Laboratory; Available from: https://www.jax.org/strain/002468 ). While numerous mouse models for T2D exist, few effectively stimulate persistent hyperglycemia in both sexes, and even fewer are suitable for bone studies. Commonly used models like db/db and ob/ob have altered leptin pathways, confounding bone-related findings since leptin regulates bone properties (Fajardo et al. in Journal of Bone and Mineral Research 29(5): 1025-1040, 2014). The Yellow Kuo Kondo (KK/Ay) mouse, a polygenic mutation model of T2D, is able to produce a consistent diabetic state in both sexes and addresses the lack of a suitable model of T2D for bone studies. The diabetic state of KK/Ay stems from a mutation in the agouti gene, responsible for coat color in mice. This mutation induces ectopic gene expression across various tissue types, resulting in diabetic mice with yellow fur coats (Moussa and Claycombe in Obesity Research 7(5): 506-514, 1999). Male and female KK/Ay mice exhibited persistent hyperglycemia, defining them as diabetic with blood glucose (BG) levels consistently exceeding 300 mg/dL. Notably, male control mice in this study were also diabetic, presenting a significant limitation. Nevertheless, male and female KK/Ay mice showed significantly elevated BG levels, HbA1c, and serum insulin concentration when compared to the non-diabetic female control mice. Early stages of T2D are characterized by hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia resulting from cellular insulin resistance, whereas later stages may feature hypoinsulinemia due to β-cell apoptosis (Banday et al. Avicenna Journal of Medicine 10(04): 174-188, 2020 and Klein et al. Cell Metabolism 34(1): 11-20, 2022). The observed hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and the absence of differences in β-cell mass suggest that KK/Ay mice in this study are modeling the earlier stages of T2D. While compromised bone microarchitecture was observed in this study, older KK/Ay mice, representing more advanced stages of T2D, might exhibit more pronounced skeletal manifestations. Compared to the control group, the femora of KK/Ay mice had higher cortical area and cortical thickness, and improved trabecular properties which would typically be indicative of greater bone strength. However, KK/Ay mice displayed lower cortical tissue mineral density in both sexes and increased cortical porosity in females. Fracture instability toughness of the femora was lower in KK/Ay mice overall compared to controls. These findings indicate that decreased mechanical integrity noted in the femora of KK/Ay mice was likely due to overall bone quality being compromised.

Br J Pharmacol 2024. [PMID: 38804080 DOI: 10.1111/bph.16421] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Insulin and exenatide are two hypoglycaemic agents that exhibit different osteogenic effects. This study compared the differences between exenatide and insulin in osseointegration in a rat model of Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and explored the mechanisms promoting osteogenesis in this model of T2D. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH In vivo, micro-CT was used to detect differences in the peri-implant bone microstructure in vivo. Histology, dual-fluorescent labelling, immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry were used to detect differences in tissue, cell and protein expression around the implants. In vitro, RT-PCR and western blotting were used to measure the expression of osteogenesis- and Wnt signalling-related genes and proteins in bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) from rats with T2D (TBMSCs) after PBS, insulin and exenatide treatment. RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Wnt bypass cascade reactions under Wnt inactivation. KEY RESULTS Micro-CT and section staining showed exenatide extensively promoted peri-implant osseointegration. Both in vivo and in vitro experiments showed exenatide substantially increased the expression of osteogenesis-related and activated the LRP5/6/GSK-3β/β-catenin-related Wnt pathway. Furthermore, exenatide suppressed expression of Bmpr1a to inhibit lipogenesis and promoted expression of Btrc to suppress inflammation. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Compared to insulin, exenatide significantly improved osteogenesis in T2D rats and TBMSCs. In addition to its dependence on LRP5/6/GSK-3β/β-catenin signalling for osteogenic differentiation, exenatide-mediated osteomodulation also involves inhibition of inflammation and adipogenesis by BMPR1A and β-TrCP, respectively.

Abstract
Skeletal fragility is an increasingly recognised, but poorly understood, complication of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Fracture risk varies according to skeletal site and diabetes-related characteristics. Post-fracture outcomes, including mortality risk, are worse in those with diabetes, placing these people at significant risk. Each fracture therefore represents a sentinel event that warrants targeted management. However, diabetes is a very heterogeneous condition with complex interactions between multiple co-existing, and highly correlated, factors that preclude a clear assessment of the independent clinical markers and pathophysiological drivers for diabetic osteopathy. Additionally, fracture risk calculators and routinely used clinical bone measurements generally underestimate fracture risk in people with diabetes. In the absence of dedicated prospective studies including detailed bone and metabolic characteristics, optimal management centres around selecting treatments that minimise skeletal and metabolic harm. This review summarises the clinical landscape of diabetic osteopathy and outlines the interplay between metabolic and skeletal health. The underlying pathophysiology of skeletal fragility in diabetes and a rationale for considering a diabetes-based paradigm in assessing and managing diabetic bone disease will be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects on bone mineral density (BMD)/fracture between type 1 (T1D) and type 2 (T2D) diabetes are unknown. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the causal relationship between the two types of diabetes and BMD/fracture using a Mendelian randomization (MR) design. METHODS A two-sample MR study was conducted to examine the causal relationship between diabetes and BMD/fracture, with three phenotypes (T1D, T2D, and glycosylated hemoglobin [HbA1c]) of diabetes as exposures and five phenotypes (femoral neck BMD [FN-BMD], lumbar spine BMD [LS-BMD], heel-BMD, total body BMD [TB-BMD], and fracture) as outcomes, combining MR-Egger, weighted median, simple mode, and inverse variance weighted (IVW) sensitivity assessments. Additionally, horizontal pleiotropy was evaluated and corrected using the residual sum and outlier approaches. RESULTS The IVW method showed that genetically predicted T1D was negatively associated with TB-BMD (β = -0.018, 95% CI: -0.030, -0.006), while T2D was positively associated with FN-BMD (β = 0.033, 95% CI: 0.003, 0.062), heel-BMD (β = 0.018, 95% CI: 0.006, 0.031), and TB-BMD (β = 0.050, 95% CI: 0.022, 0.079). Further, HbA1c was not associated with the five outcomes (β ranged from - 0.012 to 0.075). CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that T1D and T2D have different effects on BMD at the genetic level. BMD decreased in patients with T1D and increased in those with T2D. These findings highlight the complex interplay between diabetes and bone health, suggesting potential age-specific effects and genetic influences. To better understand the mechanisms of bone metabolism in patients with diabetes, further longitudinal studies are required to explain BMD changes in different types of diabetes.

Microvascular disease not type 2 diabetes is associated with increased cortical porosity: A study of cortical bone microstructure and intracortical vessel characteristics. Bone Rep 2024; 20:101745. [PMID: 38444830 PMCID: PMC10912053 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2024.101745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Revised: 12/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Fracture risk is elevated in type 2 diabetes (T2D) despite normal or even high bone mineral density (BMD). Microvascular disease (MVD) is a diabetic complication, but also associated with other diseases, for example chronic kidney disease. We hypothesize that increased fracture risk in T2D could be due to increased cortical porosity (Ct.Po) driven by expansion of the vascular network in MVD. The purpose of this study was to investigate associations of T2D and MVD with cortical microstructure and intracortical vessel parameters. Methods The study group consisted of 75 participants (38 with T2D and 37 without T2D). High-resolution peripheral quantitative CT (HR-pQCT) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) of the ultra-distal tibia were performed to assess cortical bone and intracortical vessels (outcomes). MVD was defined as ≥1 manifestation including neuropathy, nephropathy, or retinopathy based on clinical exams in all participants. Adjusted means of outcomes were compared between groups with/without T2D or between participants with/without MVD in both groups using linear regression models adjusting for age, sex, BMI, and T2D as applicable. Results MVD was found in 21 (55 %) participants with T2D and in 9 (24 %) participants without T2D. In T2D, cortical pore diameter (Ct.Po.Dm) and diameter distribution (Ct.Po.Dm.SD) were significantly higher by 14.6 μm (3.6 %, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 2.70, 26.5 μm, p = 0.017) and by 8.73 μm (4.8 %, CI: 0.79, 16.7 μm, p = 0.032), respectively. In MVD, but not in T2D, cortical porosity was significantly higher by 2.25 % (relative increase = 12.9 %, CI: 0.53, 3.97 %, p = 0.011) and cortical BMD (Ct.BMD) was significantly lower by -43.6 mg/cm3 (2.6 %, CI: -77.4, -9.81 mg/cm3, p = 0.012). In T2D, vessel volume and vessel diameter were significantly higher by 0.02 mm3 (13.3 %, CI: 0.004, 0.04 mm3, p = 0.017) and 15.4 μm (2.9 %, CI: 0.42, 30.4 μm, p = 0.044), respectively. In MVD, vessel density was significantly higher by 0.11 mm-3 (17.8 %, CI: 0.01, 0.21 mm-3, p = 0.033) and vessel volume and diameter were significantly lower by -0.02 mm3 (13.7 %, CI: -0.04, -0.004 mm3, p = 0.015) and - 14.6 μm (2.8 %, CI: -29.1, -0.11 μm, p = 0.048), respectively. Conclusions The presence of MVD, rather than T2D, was associated with increased cortical porosity. Increased porosity in MVD was coupled with a larger number of smaller vessels, which could indicate upregulation of neovascularization triggered by ischemia. It is unclear why higher variability and average diameters of pores in T2D were accompanied by larger vessels.

Abstract
Cross-sectional size of a long bone shaft influences its mechanical properties. We recently used high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HRpQCT) to create reference data for size measures of the radial and tibial diaphyses. However, data did not take into account the impact of bone length. Human bone exhibits relatively isometric allometry whereby cross-sectional area increases proportionally with bone length. The consequence is that taller than average individuals will generally have larger z-scores for bone size outcomes when length is not considered. The goal of the current work was to develop a means of determining whether an individual's cross-sectional bone size is suitable for their bone length. HRpQCT scans performed at 30 % of bone length proximal from the distal end of the radius and tibia were acquired from 1034 White females (age = 18.0 to 85.3 y) and 392 White males (age = 18.4 to 83.6 y). Positive relationships were confirmed between bone length and cross-sectional areas and estimated mechanical properties. Scaling factors were calculated and used to scale HRpQCT outcomes to bone length. Centile curves were generated for both raw and bone length scaled HRpQCT data using the LMS approach. Excel-based calculators are provided to facilitate calculation of z-scores for both raw and bone length scaled HRpQCT outcomes. The raw z-scores indicate the magnitude that an individual's HRpQCT outcomes differ relative to expected sex- and age-specific values, with the scaled z-scores also considering bone length. The latter enables it to be determined whether an individual or population of interest has normal sized bones for their length, which may have implications for injury risk. In addition to providing a means of expressing HRpQCT bone size outcomes relative to bone length, the current study also provides centile curves for outcomes previously without reference data, including tissue mineral density and moments of inertia.

Abstract
Diabetes, a disease marked by consistent high blood glucose levels, is associated with various complications such as neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy, and cardiovascular disease. Notably, skeletal fragility has emerged as a significant complication in both type 1 (T1D) and type 2 (T2D) diabetic patients. This review examines noninvasive imaging studies that evaluate skeletal outcomes in adults with T1D and T2D, emphasizing distinct skeletal phenotypes linked with each condition and pinpointing gaps in understanding bone health in diabetes. Although traditional DXA-BMD does not fully capture the increased fracture risk in diabetes, recent techniques such as quantitative computed tomography, peripheral quantitative computed tomography, high-resolution quantitative computed tomography, and MRI provide insights into 3D bone density, microstructure, and strength. Notably, existing studies present heterogeneous results possibly due to variations in design, outcome measures, and potential misclassification between T1D and T2D. Thus, the true nature of diabetic skeletal fragility is yet to be fully understood. As T1D and T2D are diverse conditions with heterogeneous subtypes, future research should delve deeper into skeletal fragility by diabetic phenotypes and focus on longitudinal studies in larger, diverse cohorts to elucidate the complex influence of T1D and T2D on bone health and fracture outcomes.

Abstract
Osteoporotic fractures impose a substantial burden on patients with diabetes due to their unique characteristics in bone metabolism, limiting the efficacy of conventional fracture prediction tools. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms have shown great promise in predicting osteoporotic fractures. This review aims to evaluate the application of traditional fracture prediction tools (FRAX, QFracture, and Garvan FRC) in patients with diabetes and osteoporosis, review AI-based fracture prediction achievements, and assess the potential efficiency of AI algorithms in this population. This comprehensive literature search was conducted in Pubmed and Web of Science. We found that conventional prediction tools exhibit limited accuracy in predicting fractures in patients with diabetes and osteoporosis due to their distinct bone metabolism characteristics. Conversely, AI algorithms show remarkable potential in enhancing predictive precision and improving patient outcomes. However, the utilization of AI algorithms for predicting osteoporotic fractures in diabetic patients is still in its nascent phase, further research is required to validate their efficacy and assess the potential advantages of their application in clinical practice.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disease affecting bone tissue and leading to increased fracture risk in men and women, independent of bone mineral density (BMD). Thus, bone material quality (i.e., properties that contribute to bone toughness but are not attributed to bone mass or quantity) is suggested to contribute to higher fracture risk in diabetic patients and has been shown to be altered. Fracture toughness properties are assumed to decline with aging and age-related disease, while toughness of human T2DM bone is mostly determined from compression testing of trabecular bone. In this case-control study, we determined fracture resistance in T2DM cortical bone tissue from male individuals in combination with a multiscale approach to assess bone material quality indices. All cortical bone samples stem from male nonosteoporotic individuals and show no significant differences in microstructure in both groups, control and T2DM. Bone material quality analyses reveal that both control and T2DM groups exhibit no significant differences in bone matrix composition assessed with Raman spectroscopy, in BMD distribution determined with quantitative back-scattered electron imaging, and in nanoscale local biomechanical properties assessed via nanoindentation. Finally, notched three-point bending tests revealed that the fracture resistance (measured from the total, elastic, and plastic J-integral) does not significantly differ in T2DM and control group, when both groups exhibit no significant differences in bone microstructure and material quality. This supports recent studies suggesting that not all T2DM patients are affected by a higher fracture risk but that individual risk profiles contribute to fracture susceptibility, which should spur further research on improving bone material quality assessment in vivo and identifying risk factors that increase bone fragility in T2DM. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
A substantial amount of evidence suggests a close relationship between osteoporosis (OP) and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), but the mechanisms involved remain unknown. Therefore, we conducted this study with the aim of screening for hub genes common to both diseases and conducting a preliminary exploration of common regulatory mechanisms. In the present study, we first screened genes significantly associated with OP and T2DM by the univariate logistic regression algorithm. And then, based on cross-analysis and random forest algorithm, we obtained three hub genes (ACAA2, GATAD2A, and VPS35) and validated the critical roles and predictive performance of the three genes in both diseases by differential expression analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and genome wide association study (GWAS) analysis. Finally, based on gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and the construction of the miRNA-mRNA regulatory network, we conducted a preliminary exploration of the co-regulatory mechanisms of three hub genes in two diseases. In conclusion, this study provides promising biomarkers for predicting and treating both diseases and offers novel directions for exploring the common regulatory mechanisms of both diseases.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) increases risk of fractures due to bone microstructural and material deficits, though the mechanisms remain unclear. Preclinical models mimicking diabetic bone disease are required to further understand its pathogenesis. The TALLYHO/JngJ (TH) mouse is a polygenic model recapitulating adolescent-onset T2DM in humans. Due to incomplete penetrance of the phenotype ~25% of male TH mice never develop hyperglycemia, providing a strain-matched nondiabetic control. We performed a comprehensive characterization of the metabolic and skeletal phenotype of diabetic TH mice and compared them to either their nondiabetic TH controls or the recommended SWR/J controls to evaluate their suitability to study diabetic bone disease in humans. Compared to both controls, male TH mice with T2DM exhibited higher blood glucose levels, weight along with impaired glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. TH mice with/without T2DM displayed higher cortical bone parameters and lower trabecular bone parameters in the femurs and vertebrae compared to SWR/J. The mechanical properties remained unchanged for all three groups except for a low-energy failure in TH mice with T2DM only compared to SWR/J. Histomorphometry analyses only revealed higher number of osteoclasts and osteocytes for SWR/J compared to both groups of TH. Bone turnover markers procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) were low for both groups of TH mice compared to SWR/J. Silver nitrate staining of the femurs revealed low number of osteocyte lacunar and dendrites in TH mice with T2DM. Three-dimensional assessment showed reduced lacunar parameters in trabecular and cortical bone. Notably, osteocyte morphology changed in TH mice with T2DM compared to SWR/J. In summary, our study highlights the utility of the TH mouse to study T2DM, but not necessarily T2DM-induced bone disease, as there were no differences in bone strength and bone cell parameters between diabetic and non-diabetic TH mice. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Diabetes is characterized by hyperglycemia, but the two main types, type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D), have distinct pathophysiology and epidemiological profiles. Individuals with T1D and T2D have an increased risk of fractures, particularly of the hip, upper arm, ankle, and nonvertebral sites. The risk of fractures is higher in T1D compared to T2D. The diagnosis of osteoporosis in individuals with T1D and T2D follows similar criteria as in the general population, but treatment thresholds may differ. Antiresorptive therapies, the first-line treatment for osteoporosis, are effective in individuals with T2D. Observational studies and post hoc analyses of previous trials have indicated that antiresorptive drugs, such as bisphosphonates and selective estrogen receptor modulators, are equally effective in reducing fracture risk and increasing bone mineral density (BMD) in individuals with and without T2D. Denosumab has shown similar effects on vertebral fracture risk but increases the risk of nonvertebral fractures. Considering the low bone turnover observed in T1D and T2D, anabolic therapies, which promote bone formation and resorption, have emerged as a potential treatment option for bone fragility in this population. Data from observational studies and post hoc analyses of previous trials also showed similar results in increasing BMD and reducing the risk of fractures in people with or without T2D. However, no evidence suggests that anabolic therapy has greater efficacy than antiresorptive drugs. In conclusion, there is an increased risk of fractures in T1D and T2D. Reductions in BMD cannot solely explain the relationship between T1D and T2D and fractures. Bone microarchitecture and other factors play a role. Antiresorptive and anabolic therapies have shown efficacy in reducing fracture risk in individuals with T2D, but the evidence is more robust for antiresorptive drugs. Evidence in T1D is scant. Further research is needed to fully understand the underlying mechanisms and optimize management strategies for bone fragility in T1D and T2D. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
An increasing number of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) will require total joint replacement (TJR) in the next decade. T2DM patients are at increased risk for TJR failure, but the mechanisms are not well understood. The current study used the Zucker Diabetic-Sprague Dawley (ZDSD) rat model of T2DM with Sprague Dawley (SPD) controls to investigate the effects of intramedullary implant placement on osseointegration, peri-implant bone structure and matrix composition, and fixation strength at 2 and 10 weeks post-implant placement. Postoperative inflammation was assessed with circulating MCP-1 and IL-10 2 days post-implant placement. In addition to comparing the two groups, stepwise linear regression modeling was performed to determine the relative contribution of glucose, cytokines, bone formation, bone structure, and bone matrix composition on osseointegration and implant fixation strength. ZDSD rats had decreased peri-implant bone formation and reduced trabecular bone volume per total volume compared with SPD controls. The osseointegrated bone matrix of ZDSD rats had decreased mineral-to-matrix and increased crystallinity compared with SPD controls. Osseointegrated bone volume per total volume was not different between the groups, whereas implant fixation was significantly decreased in ZDSD at 2 weeks but not at 10 weeks. A combination of trabecular mineral apposition rate and postoperative MCP-1 levels explained 55.6% of the variance in osseointegration, whereas cortical thickness, osseointegration mineral apposition rate, and matrix compositional parameters explained 69.2% of the variance in implant fixation strength. The results support the growing recognition that both peri-implant structure and matrix composition affect implant fixation and suggest that postoperative inflammation may contribute to poor outcomes after TJR surgeries in T2DM patients. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Clinical studies indicate that microvascular disease (MVD) affects bone microstructure and decreases bone strength in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Osteocytes are housed in small voids within the bone matrix and lacunae and act as sensors of mechanical forces in bone. These cells regulate osteoclastic bone resorption and osteoblastic bone formation as well as osteocytic perilacunar remodeling. We hypothesized that MVD changes morphometric osteocyte lacunar parameters in individuals with T2D. We collected iliac crest bone biopsies from 35 individuals (10 female, 25 male) with T2D with MVD (15%) or without MVD (21%) with a median age of 67 years (interquartile range [IQR] 62-72 years). The participants were included based on c-peptide levels >700 pmol L-1, absence of anti-GAD65 antibodies, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels between 40 and 82 mmol mol-1 or 5.8% and 9.7%, respectively. We assessed osteocyte lacunar morphometric parameters in trabecular and cortical bone regions using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) at a nominal resolution of 1.2 μm voxel size. The cortical osteocyte lacunar volume (Lc.V) was 7.7% larger (p = 0.05) and more spherical (Lc.Sr, p < 0.01) in the T2D + MVD group. Using linear regression, we found that lacunar density (Lc.N/BV) in trabecular but not cortical bone was associated with HbA1c (p < 0.05, R 2 = 0.067) independently of MVD. Furthermore, Lc.V was larger and Lc.Sr higher in the center than in the periphery of the trabecular and cortical bone regions (p < 0.05). In conclusion, these data imply that MVD may impair skeletal integrity, possibly contributing to increased skeletal fragility in T2D complicated by MVD. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Paeoniflorin (Pae) is a monoterpene glycoside with immune-regulatory effects. Several studies have already demonstrated the impact of Pae on periodontitis, but its effect on diabetic periodontitis is unclear. In this study, our aim was to test the hypothesis that Pae had a strong anti-inflammatory effect that prevented bone loss in diabetic periodontitis. METHODS Thirty male Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into control (healthy, n = 10), periodontitis (PD) + diabetes (DM; n = 10), and PD + DM + Pae (n = 10) groups. Ligature-induced periodontitis was created by placing 4-0 silk ligatures around the lower first molars on both sides of the mandibulae. Experimental DM was created via an injection of 50 mg/kg and streptozotocin (STZ). Hyperglycemia was confirmed by the blood glucose levels of rats (>300 mg/dL). The bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular number, trabecular thickness, and bone loss were measured by micro-CT. The expression levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were measured in tissue homogenates by ELISA. RESULTS The PD + DM + Pae group had significantly less alveolar crest resorption when compared to the PD + DM group. There was also a significant difference between the PD + DM + Pae group compared to PD + DM group in trabecular thickness, BMD, and the number of trabeculae. Pae application led to a statistically significant decrease in IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α levels in diabetic periodontitis. CONCLUSION Systemic application of Pae suppressed inflammation caused by PD and DM, leading to reduced bone loss and enhanced bone quality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Assessment of cortical bone porosity and geometry by imaging in vivo can provide useful information about bone quality that is independent of bone mineral density (BMD). Ultrashort echo time (UTE) MRI techniques of measuring cortical bone porosity and geometry have been extensively validated in preclinical studies and have recently been shown to detect impaired bone quality in vivo in patients with osteoporosis. However, these techniques rely on laborious image segmentation, which is clinically impractical. Additionally, UTE MRI porosity techniques typically require long scan times or external calibration samples and elaborate physics processing, which limit their translatability. To this end, the UTE MRI-derived Suppression Ratio has been proposed as a simple-to-calculate, reference-free biomarker of porosity which can be acquired in clinically feasible acquisition times. PURPOSE To explore whether a deep learning method can automate cortical bone segmentation and the corresponding analysis of cortical bone imaging biomarkers, and to investigate the Suppression Ratio as a fast, simple, and reference-free biomarker of cortical bone porosity. METHODS In this retrospective study, a deep learning 2D U-Net was trained to segment the tibial cortex from 48 individual image sets comprised of 46 slices each, corresponding to 2208 training slices. Network performance was validated through an external test dataset comprised of 28 scans from 3 groups: (1) 10 healthy, young participants, (2) 9 postmenopausal, non-osteoporotic women, and (3) 9 postmenopausal, osteoporotic women. The accuracy of automated porosity and geometry quantifications were assessed with the coefficient of determination and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Furthermore, automated MRI biomarkers were compared between groups and to dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)- and peripheral quantitative CT (pQCT)-derived BMD. Additionally, the Suppression Ratio was compared to UTE porosity techniques based on calibration samples. RESULTS The deep learning model provided accurate labeling (Dice score 0.93, intersection-over-union 0.88) and similar results to manual segmentation in quantifying cortical porosity (R2 ≥ 0.97, ICC ≥ 0.98) and geometry (R2 ≥ 0.82, ICC ≥ 0.75) parameters in vivo. Furthermore, the Suppression Ratio was validated compared to established porosity protocols (R2 ≥ 0.78). Automated parameters detected age- and osteoporosis-related impairments in cortical bone porosity (P ≤ .002) and geometry (P values ranging from <0.001 to 0.08). Finally, automated porosity markers showed strong, inverse Pearson's correlations with BMD measured by pQCT (|R| ≥ 0.88) and DXA (|R| ≥ 0.76) in postmenopausal women, confirming that lower mineral density corresponds to greater porosity. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated feasibility of a simple, automated, and ionizing-radiation-free protocol for quantifying cortical bone porosity and geometry in vivo from UTE MRI and deep learning.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and osteoporosis (OP) are major causes of morbidity and mortality that have arelevant health and economic burden. Recent epidemiological evidence suggests that both of these disorders are often associated with each other and that T2D patients have an increased risk of fracture, making bone an additional target of diabetes. As occurs for other diabetic complications, the increased accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and oxidative stress represent the major mechanisms explaining bone fragility in T2D. Both of these conditions directly and indirectly (through the promotion of microvascular complications) impair the structural ductility of bone and negatively affect bone turnover, leading to impaired bone quality, rather than decreased bone density. This makes diabetes-induced bone fragility remarkably different from other forms of OP and represents a major challenge for fracture risk stratification, since either the measurement of BMD or the use of common diagnostic algorithms for OP have a poor predictive value. We review and discuss the role of AGEs and oxidative stress on the pathophysiology of bone fragility in T2D, providing some indications on how to improve fracture risk prediction in T2D patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION/AIM People with type 1 diabetes(T1D) and type 2 diabetes(T2D) have an increased risk of fractures due to skeletal fragility. We aimed to compare areal bone mineral density(aBMD), volumetric BMD(vBMD), cortical and trabecular measures, and bone strength parameters in participants with diabetes vs. controls. METHODS In a cross-sectional study, we included participants with T1D(n = 111), T2D(n = 106) and controls(n = 328). The study comprised of whole-body DXA and HR-pQCT scans, biochemistry, handgrip strength(HGS), Timed Up and GO(TUG), vibration perception threshold (VPT), questionnaires, medical histories, alcohol use, and previous fractures. Group comparisons were performed after adjustment for sex, age, BMI, diabetes duration, HbA1c, alcohol, smoking, previous fractures, postmenopausal, HGS, TUG, and VPT. RESULTS We found decreased aBMD in participants with T1D at the femoral neck(p = 0.028), whereas T2D had significantly higher aBMD at peripheral sites(legs, arms, p < 0.01) vs. controls. In T1D we found higher vBMD(p < 0.001), cortical vBMD (p < 0.001), cortical area(p = 0.002) and thickness(p < 0.001), lower cortical porosity(p = 0.008), higher stiffness(p = 0.002) and failure load(p = 0.003) at radius and higher vBMD(p = 0.003), cortical vBMD(p < 0.001), bone stiffness(p = 0.023) and failure load(p = 0.044) at the tibia than controls. In T2D we found higher vBMD(p < 0.001), cortical vBMD(p < 0.001), trabecular vBMD(p < 0.001), cortical area (p < 0.001) and thickness (p < 0.001), trabecular number (p = 0.024), lower separation(p = 0.010), higher stiffness (p < 0.001) and failure load (p < 0.001) at the radius and higher total vBMD(p < 0.001), cortical vBMD(p < 0.011), trabecular vBMD(p = 0.001), cortical area(p = 0.002) and thickness(p = 0.021), lower trabecular separation(p = 0.039), higher stiffness(p < 0.001) and failure load(p = 0.034) at tibia compared with controls. CONCLUSION aBMD measures were as expected but favorable bone microarchitecture and strength parameters were seen at the tibia and radius for T1D and T2D.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bone is one of the main targets of hormones and endocrine diseases are frequent causes of secondary osteoporosis and fractures in real-world clinical practice. However, diagnosis of skeletal fragility and prediction of fractures in this setting could be a challenge, since the skeletal alterations induced by endocrine disorders are not generally captured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurement of bone mineral density (BMD), that is the gold standard for diagnosis of osteoporosis in the general population. The aim of this paper is to review the existing evidence related to bone quality features in endocrine diseases, proposing assessment with new techniques in the future. METHODS A comprehensive search within electronic databases was performed to collect reports of bone quality in primary hyperparathyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, hyperthyroidism, hypercortisolism, growth hormone deficiency, acromegaly, male hypogonadism and diabetes mellitus. RESULTS Using invasive and non-invasive techniques, such as high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography or DXA measurement of trabecular bone score (TBS), several studies consistently reported altered bone quality as predominant determinant of fragility fractures in subjects affected by chronic endocrine disorders. CONCLUSIONS Assessment of skeletal fragility in endocrine diseases might take advantage from the use of techniques to detect perturbation in bone architecture with the aim of best identifying patients at high risk of fractures.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with numerous complications, including increased risk of fragility fractures, despite seemingly protective factors [e.g., normal bone mineral density and increased body mass index(BMI)]. However, fracture risk in T2D is underestimated by current fracture risk calculators. Importantly, post-fracture mortality is worse in T2D following any fracture, highlighting the importance of identifying high-risk patients that may benefit from targeted management. Several diabetes-related factors are associated with increased fracture risk, including exogenous insulin therapy, vascular complications, and poor glycaemic control, although detailed comprehensive studies to identify the independent contributions of these factors are lacking. The underlying pathophysiological mechanisms are complex and multifactorial, with different factors contributing during the course of T2D disease. These include obesity, hyperinsulinaemia, hyperglycaemia, accumulation of advanced glycation end products, and vascular supply affecting bone-cell function and survival and bone-matrix composition. This review summarises the current understanding of the contributors to impaired bone health in T2D, and proposes an updated approach to managing these patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at higher risk of fracture, but paradoxically do not have reduced bone mineral density. We investigated associations between peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) and glycaemia status. MATERIALS AND METHODS Participants were men (n = 354, age 33-92 year) from the Geelong Osteoporosis Study. Diabetes was defined by fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥ 7.0 mmol/L, self-report of diabetes and/or antihyperglycaemic medication use and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) as FPG 5.6-6.9 mmol/L. Bone measures were derived using pQCT (XCT2000) at 4% and 66% radial and tibial sites. Linear regression was used, adjusting for age, body mass index and socio-economic status. RESULTS At the 4% site, men with T2DM had lower adjusted bone total area, trabecular area and cortical area at the radius (all - 6.2%) and tibia (all - 6.4%) compared to normoglycaemia. Cortical density was higher for T2DM at the radius (+ 5.8%) and tibia (+ 8.0%), as well as adjusted total bone density at the tibial site (+ 6.1%). At the 66% site, adjusted total bone area and polar stress strain index were lower for T2DM at the radius (- 4.3% and - 8.0%). Total density was also higher for T2DM (+ 1.2%). Only cortical density at the 4% tibial site was different between IFG and normoglycaemia in adjusted analyses (+ 4.5%). CONCLUSION Men with T2DM had lower total bone area, trabecular area, cortical area and polar stress strain index than the other two groups; however, total density and cortical density were higher. Only one difference was observed between IFG and normoglycaemia; increased tibial cortical density.

Abstract
Obesity is a growing global epidemic linked to many diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and musculoskeletal disorders. Exercise can improve bone density and decrease excess bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) in obese individuals. However, the mechanism of exercise regulating bone marrow microenvironment remains unclear. This study examines how exercise induces bone marrow remodeling in diet-induced obesity. We employed unbiased RNA-Seq to investigate the effect of exercise on the bone marrow of diet-induced obese male mice. Bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were isolated to explore the regulatory effects of exercise in vitro. Our data demonstrated that exercise could slow down the progression of obesity and improve trabecular bone density. RNA-seq data revealed that exercise inhibited secreted phosphoprotein 1 (Spp1), which was shown to mediate bone resorption through mechanosensing mechanisms. Interactome analysis of Spp1 using the HINT database showed that Spp1 interacted with the adipokine adipsin. Moreover, exercise decreased BMAT, which induced osteoclast differentiation and promoted bone loss. Our study reveals that exercise improves the bone marrow microenvironment by at least partially inhibiting the adipsin-Spp1 signaling pathway so as to inhibit the alternative complement system from activating osteoclasts in diet-induced obese mice.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease affecting bone tissue at different length-scales. Higher fracture risk in diabetic patients is difficult to detect with common clinical fracture risk assessment due to normal or high bone mineral density in diabetic patients. The observed higher fracture risk despite normal to high areal bone mineral density in diabetic patients points towards impaired bone material quality. Here, we analyze tibial bone from individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus using a multiscale-approach, which includes clinical and laboratory-based bone quality measures. Tibial cortical bone tissue from individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and age-matched healthy controls (n = 15 each) was analyzed with in situ impact indentation, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), high resolution peripheral microcomputed tomography (HR-pQCT), micro-computed tomography (microCT), cyclic indentation, quantitative backscattered electron microscopy (qBEI), vibrational spectroscopy (Raman), nanoindentation, and fluorescence spectroscopy. With this approach, a high cortical porosity subgroup of individuals with T2DM was discriminated from two study groups: individuals with T2DM and individuals without T2DM, while both groups were associated with similar cortical porosity quantified by means of microCT. The high porosity T2DM group, but not the T2DM group, showed compromised bone quality expressed by altered cyclic indentation properties (transversal direction) in combination with a higher carbonate-to-amide I ratio in endocortical bone. In addition, in the T2DM group with high cortical porosity group, greater cortical pore diameter was identified with HR-pQCT and lower tissue mineral density using microCT, both compared to T2DM group. Micromechanical analyses of cross-sectioned osteons (longitudinal direction) with cyclic indentation, qBEI, and nanoindentation showed no differences between the three groups. High tibial cortical porosity in T2DM can be linked to locally altered bone material composition. As the tibia is an accessible skeletal site for fracture risk assessment in the clinics (CT, indentation), our findings may contribute to further understanding the site-specific structural and compositional factors forming the basis of bone quality in diabetes mellitus. Refined diagnostic strategies are needed for a comprehensive fracture risk assessment in diabetic bone disease.

Meta-analysis of Diabetes Mellitus-Associated Differences in Bone Structure Assessed by High-Resolution Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography. Curr Osteoporos Rep 2022; 20:398-409.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Diabetes mellitus is defined by elevated blood glucose levels caused by changes in glucose metabolism and, according to its pathogenesis, is classified into type 1 (T1DM) and type 2 (T2DM) diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is associated with multiple degenerative processes, including structural alterations of the bone and increased fracture risk. High-resolution peripheral computed tomography (HR-pQCT) is a clinically applicable, volumetric imaging technique that unveils bone microarchitecture in vivo. Numerous studies have used HR-pQCT to assess volumetric bone mineral density and microarchitecture in patients with diabetes, including characteristics of trabecular (e.g. number, thickness and separation) and cortical bone (e.g. thickness and porosity). However, study results are heterogeneous given different imaging regions and diverse patient cohorts. RECENT FINDINGS This meta-analysis assessed T1DM- and T2DM-associated characteristics of bone microarchitecture measured in human populations in vivo reported in PubMed- and Embase-listed publications from inception (2005) to November 2021. The final dataset contained twelve studies with 516 participants with T2DM and 3067 controls and four studies with 227 participants with T1DM and 405 controls. While T1DM was associated with adverse trabecular characteristics, T2DM was primarily associated with adverse cortical characteristics. These adverse effects were more severe at the radius than the load-bearing tibia, indicating increased mechanical loading may compensate for deleterious bone microarchitecture changes and supporting mechanoregulation of bone fragility in diabetes mellitus. Our meta-analysis revealed distinct predilection sites of bone structure aberrations in T1DM and T2DM, which provide a foundation for the development of animal models of skeletal fragility in diabetes and may explain the uncertainty of predicting bone fragility in diabetic patients using current clinical algorithms.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review summarizes recent developments on the effects of glycemic control and diabetes on bone health. We discuss the foundational cellular mechanisms through which diabetes and impaired glucose control impact bone biology, and how these processes contribute to bone fragility in diabetes. RECENT FINDINGS Glucose is important for osteoblast differentiation and energy consumption of mature osteoblasts. The role of insulin is less clear, but insulin receptor deletion in mouse osteoblasts reduces bone formation. Epidemiologically, type 1 (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) associate with increased fracture risk, which is greater among people with T1D. Accumulation of cortical bone micro-pores, micro-vascular complications, and AGEs likely contribute to diabetes-related bone fragility. The effects of youth-onset T2D on peak bone mass attainment and subsequent skeletal fragility are of particular concern. Further research is needed to understand the effects of hyperglycemia on skeletal health through the lifecycle, including the related factors of inflammation and microvascular damage.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a global epidemic disease. The prevalence of T2D in adolescents and young adults is increasing alarmingly. The mechanisms leading to T2D in young people are similar to those in older patients. However, the severity of onset, reduced insulin sensitivity and defective insulin secretion can be different in subjects who develop the disease at a younger age. T2D is associated with different complications, including bone fragility with consequent susceptibility to fractures. The purpose of this systematic review was to describe T2D bone fragility together with all the possible involved pathways. Numerous studies have reported that patients with T2D show preserved, or even increased, bone mineral density compared with controls. This apparent paradox can be explained by the altered bone quality with increased cortical bone porosity and compr-omised mechanical properties. Furthermore, reduced bone turnover has been described in T2D with reduced markers of bone formation and resorption. These findings prompted different researchers to highlight the mechanisms leading to bone fragility, and numerous critical altered pathways have been identified and studied. In detail, we focused our attention on the role of microvascular disease, advanced glycation end products, the senescence pathway, the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, the osteoprotegerin/receptor-activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand, osteonectin and fibroblast growth factor 23. The understanding of type 2 myeloid bone fragility is an important issue as it could suggest possible interventions for the prevention of poor bone quality in T2D and/or how to target these pathways when bone disease is clearly evident.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an emerging metabolic disease, and the management of diabetic bone disease poses a serious challenge worldwide. Understanding the underlying mechanisms leading to high fracture risk in DM is hence of particular interest and urgently needed to allow for diagnosis and treatment optimization. In a case-control postmortem study, the whole 12th thoracic vertebra and cortical bone from the mid-diaphysis of the femur from male individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) (n = 6; 61.3 ± 14.6 years), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) (n = 11; 74.3 ± 7.9 years), and nondiabetic controls (n = 18; 69.3 ± 11.5) were analyzed with clinical and ex situ imaging techniques to explore various bone quality indices. Cortical collagen fibril deformation was measured in a synchrotron setup to assess changes at the nanoscale during tensile testing until failure. In addition, matrix composition was analyzed including determination of cross-linking and non-crosslinking advanced glycation end-products like pentosidine and carboxymethyl-lysine. In T1DM, lower fibril deformation was accompanied by lower mineralization and more mature crystalline apatite. In T2DM, lower fibril deformation concurred with a lower elastic modulus and tendency to higher accumulation of non-crosslinking advanced glycation end-products. The observed lower collagen fibril deformation in diabetic bone may be linked to altered patterns mineral characteristics in T1DM and higher advanced glycation end-product accumulation in T2DM. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
Individuals with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) have approximately 30% increased risk of hip fracture; however, the main cause of the elevated fracture risk in those subjects remains unclear. Moreover, micromechanical and microarchitectural properties of the superolateral femoral neck-the common fracture-initiating site-are still unknown. We collected proximal femora of 16 men (eight with T2DM and eight controls; age: 61 ± 10 years) at autopsy. After performing post-mortem bone densitometry (DXA), the superolateral neck was excised and scanned with microcomputed tomography (microCT). We also conducted Vickers microindentation testing. T2DM and control subjects did not differ in age (p = 0.605), body mass index (p = 0.114), and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) (p = 0.841). Cortical porosity (Ct.Po) was higher and cortical thickness (Ct.Th) was lower in T2DM (p = 0.044, p = 0.007, respectively). Of trabecular microarchitectural parameters, only structure model index (p = 0.022) was significantly different between T2DM subjects and controls. Control group showed higher cortical (p = 0.002) and trabecular bone microhardness (p = 0.005). Increased Ct.Po and decreased Ct.Th in T2DM subjects increase the propensity to femoral neck fracture. Apart from the deteriorated cortical microarchitecture, decreased cortical and trabecular microhardness suggests altered bone composition of the superolateral femoral neck cortex and trabeculae in T2DM. Significantly deteriorated cortical microarchitecture of the superolateral femoral neck is not recognized by standard DXA measurement of the femoral neck.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDThe effects of insulin resistance on bone mineral density (BMD) are unclear.METHODSIn Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN) participants, we used multivariable regression to test average insulin resistance (homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance, HOMA-IR) and rate of change in insulin resistance as predictors of rate of change in lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN) BMD in 3 stages: premenopause (n = 861), menopause transition (MT) (n = 571), and postmenopause (n = 693). Models controlled for age, average BW, change in BW, cigarette use, race and ethnicity, and study site.RESULTSThe relation between HOMA-IR and BMD decline was biphasic. When average log2HOMA-IR was less than 1.5, greater HOMA-IR was associated with slower BMD decline; i.e., each doubling of average HOMA-IR in premenopause was associated with a 0.0032 (P = 0.01, LS) and 0.0041 (P = 0.004, FN) g/cm2 per year slower BMD loss. When greater than or equal to 1.5, average log2HOMA-IR was not associated with BMD change. In women in whom HOMA-IR decreased in premenopause, the association between the HOMA-IR change rate and BMD change rate was positive; i.e, slower HOMA-IR decline was associated with slower BMD loss. In women in whom insulin resistance increased in premenopause, the association was negative; i.e, faster HOMA-IR rise was associated with faster BMD decline. Associations of average HOMA-IR and HOMA-IR change rate with BMD change rate were similar in postmenopause, but weaker during the MT.CONCLUSIONWhen it decreases, insulin resistance is associated with BMD preservation; when it increases, insulin resistance is associated with BMD loss.FUNDINGThe SWAN has grant support from the NIH of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) through the NIH National Institute on Aging (NIA), National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), and Office of Research on Women's Health (ORWH) (grants U01NR004061, U01AG012505, U01AG012535, U01AG012531, U01AG012539, U01AG012546, U01AG012553, U01AG012554, U01AG012495, and U19AG063720).

Abstract
People with T1D and T2D have an increased risk of fractures than the general population, posing several significant pathophysiologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic challenges. The pathophysiology is still not fully elucidated, but it is considered a combination of increased skeletal fragility and falls. Diagnostics issues exist, as regular and even newer scan methods underestimate the true incidence of osteoporosis and thus the fracture risk. Therefore, co-managing diabetes and osteoporosis by using top-line strategies is essential to preserve bone health and minimize the risk of falls. The therapeutic focus should start with lifestyle implementation and physical exercise interventions to reduce diabetic complications, strengthen bones, and improve postural control strategies. In addition, osteoporosis should be treated according to current guidelines by including bisphosphonates and antidiabetic drugs that support bone health. Finally, potentially modifiable risk factors for falls should be managed.

Abstract
Obesity and type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are prominent risk factors for secondary osteoporosis due to the negative impacts of hyperglycemia and excessive body fat on bone metabolism. While the armamentarium of anti-diabetic drugs is expanding, their negative or unknown impacts on bone metabolism limits effectiveness. The inactivation of inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 (IP6K1) protects mice from high-fat-diet (HFD)-induced obesity (DIO) and insulin resistance by enhancing thermogenic energy expenditure, but the role of this kinase and the consequences of its inhibition on bone metabolism are unknown. To determine if IP6K1 inhibition in obese mice affords protection against obesity-induced metabolic derangements and bone loss, we maintained 2-month-old mice on a normal chow control diet or HFD under thermal neutral conditions for 100 d. Beginning on day 40, HFD-fed mice were divided into two groups and administered daily injections of vehicle or the pan-IP6K inhibitor TNP [N2-(m-Trifluorobenzyl), N6-(p-nitrobenzyl) purine]. HFD-fed mice developed obesity, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and secondary osteoporosis, while TNP administration protected mice against HFD-induced metabolic and lipid derangements and preserved bone mass, mineral density, and trabecular microarchitecture, which correlated with reduced serum leptin levels, reduced marrow adiposity, and preservation of marrow resident skeletal stem/progenitor cells (SSPCs). TNP also exhibited hypotensive activity, an unrealized benefit of the drug, and its prolonged administration had no adverse impacts on spermatogenesis. Together, these data indicate that the inhibition of IP6K1 using selective inhibitors, such as TNP, may provide an effective strategy to manage obesity and T2DM due to its bone sparing effects.

Abstract
Recent scientific evidence has shown an increased risk of fractures in patients with obesity, especially in those with a higher visceral adipose tissue content. This contradicts the old paradigm that obese patients were more protected than those with normal weight. Specifically, in older subjects in whom there is a redistribution of fat from subcutaneous adipose tissue to visceral adipose tissue and an infiltration of other tissues such as muscle with the consequent sarcopenia, obesity can accentuate the changes characteristic of this age group that predisposes to a greater risk of falls and fractures. Other factors that determine a greater risk in older subjects with obesity are chronic proinflammatory status, altered adipokine secretion, vitamin D deficiency, insulin resistance and reduced mobility. On the other hand, diagnostic tests may be influenced by obesity and its comorbidities as well as by body composition, and risk scales may underestimate the risk of fractures in these patients. Weight loss with physical activity programs and cessation of high-fat diets may reduce the risk. Finally, more research is needed on the efficacy of anti-osteoporotic treatments in obese patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Prolactinoma may reduce bone mineral density (BMD) and increase fracture risk, but its influence on bone microarchitecture remains to be elucidated. The purpose of this study is to evaluate bone microarchitecture parameters by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in prolactinoma patients. METHODS 31 prolactinoma patients and 62 age- and sex-matched healthy controls in our center were included, and HR-pQCT was used to evaluate their bone microarchitecture at the radius and tibia. Z-scores for bone microarchitecture parameters were calculated based on previously published reference. RESULTS After adjusting for height and weight, prolactinoma patients had lower trabecular (- 0.011 mm, p = 0.005) and cortical thickness (- 0.116 mm, p = 0.008) and cortical area (- 6.0 mm2, p = 0.013) at radius, as well as lower trabecular (- 0.014 mm, p = 0.008) and cortical (- 0.122 mm, p = 0.022) thickness at tibia compared with the controls. Patients with higher prolactin level had more severe bone microarchitecture impairments. After adjusting for prolactin level and age, male patients had lower trabecular volumetric BMD (vBMD), trabecular number, trabecular thickness, and cortical porosity at radius, as well as lower trabecular vBMD, trabecular bone volume fraction, trabecular number, and cortical area, and higher trabecular separation at tibia compared with female patients. Z-score for radius vBMD was correlated with Z-score for areal BMD (aBMD) at lumbar and femoral neck, while Z-score for tibia vBMD was correlated with Z-score for lumbar aBMD, and some patients with vBMD Z-score below - 2.0 had aBMD Z-score within normal range. CONCLUSION Peripheral bone microarchitecture was impaired in prolactinoma patients, especially in patients with higher prolactin level. We compared the bone microarchitecture of prolactinoma patients and healthy controls by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT), and found that many bone microarchitecture parameters were impaired among prolactinoma patients. Such impairment was more prominent among patients with higher prolactin level.

Abstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus and peripheral neuropathy are established risk factors for complications in operatively treated ankle fractures. Generally, the presence of peripheral neuropathy and diabetic nephropathy have been used as independent variables in studies of diabetic ankle fracture cohorts but are typically treated as binary risk factors. Our purpose was to quantify the effects of risk factors on complication rate specific to diabetic patients undergoing ankle fracture fixation. Methods: We identified 617 rotational ankle fractures treated operatively at a single academic medical center from 2010 to 2019, of which 160 were identified as diabetic. Of these, 91 ankle fractures in 90 diabetic patients met criteria for retrospective review of clinical and radiographic data. Criteria included perioperative laboratory studies, including glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), as well as follow-up radiographs in the electronic record. We defined complications in this surgical cohort as deep surgical site infection, unplanned return to the operating room, and failure of fixation. Logistic regression was performed and odds ratios (ORs) calculated. Results: The overall complication rate was 28.6% (26/91) in this cohort. Median follow-up was 29 weeks (range: 5-520 weeks). Mean perioperative HbA1c in patients who experienced postoperative complications was 7.6% (range: 5.1%-14.2%) compared with 7.8% (range: 5.6%-13.5%) who did not ( P = .69). Diabetic patients with chronic kidney disease (eGFR <60 mL/min per body surface area) (OR 5.29, P = .006) and peripheral neuropathy (OR 4.61, P = .003) were at significantly higher risk of all complications compared with diabetic patients without these comorbidities. Of note, we did not find an association between perioperative HbA1c or body mass index and complication rate. Conclusion: Patients with diabetes complicated by chronic kidney disease are at significantly higher risk of complications following operative management of ankle fractures. Our study also corroborated previous reports that within this high-risk cohort, the presence of peripheral neuropathy is a significant risk factor for complications. These sequalae of diabetic disease are manifestations of microvascular disease, glycosylation of soft tissues, and impaired metabolic pathways. Identifying these risk factors in diabetic patients allows for patient-specific risk stratification, education, and management decisions of ankle fractures. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective cohort study.

Abstract
There is substantial, and growing, evidence that type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with skeletal fragility, despite often preserved bone mineral density. As post-fracture outcomes, including mortality, are worse in people with T2D, bone management should be carefully considered in this highly vulnerable group. However, current fracture risk calculators inadequately predict fracture risk in T2D, and dedicated randomised controlled trials identifying optimal management in patients with T2D are lacking, raising questions about the ideal assessment and treatment of bone health in these people. We synthesise the current literature on evaluating bone measurements in T2D and summarise the evidence for safety and efficacy of both T2D and anti-osteoporosis medications in relation to bone health in these patients.

Abstract
Bone fragility is a common complication in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, traditional techniques for the evaluation of bone fragility, such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), do not perform well in this population. Moreover, the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) usually underestimates fracture risk in T2DM. Importantly, novel technologies for the assessment of one microarchitecture in patients with T2DM, such as the trabecular bone score (TBS), high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT), and microindentation, are emerging. Furthermore, different serum and urine bone biomarkers may also be useful for the evaluation of bone quality in T2DM. Hence, in this article, we summarize the limitations of conventional tools for the evaluation of bone fragility and review the current evidence on novel approaches for the assessment of quality and bone microstructure alterations in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians have a substantially greater fracture risk, where men are 50% and women are 26% more likely to experience a hip fracture compared with non-Indigenous Australians. Fall-related injuries in this population have also increased by 10%/year compared with 4.3%/year in non-Indigenous Australians. This study aims to determine why falls and fracture risk are higher in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians. SETTING All clinical assessments will be performed at one centre in Melbourne, Australia. At baseline, participants will have clinical assessments, including questionnaires, anthropometry, bone structure, body composition and physical performance tests. These assessments will be repeated at follow-up 1 and follow-up 2, with an interval of 12 months between each clinical visit. PARTICIPANTS This codesigned prospective observational study aims to recruit a total of 298 adults who identify as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and reside within Victoria, Australia. Stratified sampling by age and sex will be used to ensure equitable distribution of men and women across four age-bands (35-44, 45-54, 55-64 and 65+ years). PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome is within-individual yearly change in areal bone mineral density at the total hip, femoral neck and lumbar spine assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Within-individual change in cortical and trabecular volumetric bone mineral density at the radius and tibia using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography will be determined. Secondary outcomes include yearly differences in physical performance and body composition. ETHICAL APPROVAL Ethics approval for this study has been granted by the Monash Health Human Research Ethics Committee (project number: RES-19-0000374A). TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ACTRN12620000161921.

Abstract
Roux-en Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is an effective treatment for obesity; however, it may negatively impact skeletal health by increasing fracture risk. This increase may be the result not only of decreased bone mineral density but also of changes in bone microstructure, for example, increased cortical porosity. Increased tibial and radial cortical porosity of patients undergoing RYGB surgery has been observed as early as 6 months postoperatively; however, local microstructural changes and associated biological mechanisms driving this increase remain unclear. To provide insight, we studied the spatial distribution of cortical porosity in 42 women and men (aged 46 ± 12 years) after RYGB surgery. Distal tibias and radii were evaluated with high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) preoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively. Laminar analysis was used to determine cortical pore number and size within the endosteal, midcortical, and periosteal layers of the cortex. Paired t tests were used to compare baseline versus follow-up porosity parameters in each layer. Mixed models were used to compare longitudinal changes in laminar analysis outcomes between layers. We found that the midcortical (0.927 ± 0.607 mm-2 to 1.069 ± 0.654 mm-2 , p = 0.004; 0.439 ± 0.293 mm-2 to 0.509 ± 0.343 mm-2 , p = 0.03) and periosteal (0.642 ± 0.412 mm-2 to 0.843 ± 0.452 mm-2 , p < 0.0001; 0.171 ± 0.101 mm-2 to 0.230 ± 0.160 mm-2 , p = 0.003) layers underwent the greatest increases in porosity over the 12-month period at the distal tibia and radius, respectively. The endosteal layer, which had the greatest porosity at baseline, did not undergo significant porosity increase over the same period (1.234 ± 0.402 mm-2 to 1.259 ± 0.413 mm-2 , p = 0.49; 0.584 ± 0.290 mm-2 to 0.620 ± 0.299 mm-2 , p = 0.35) at the distal tibia and radius, respectively. An alternative baseline-mapping approach for endosteal boundary definition confirmed that cortical bone loss was not primarily endosteal. These findings indicate that increases in cortical porosity happen in regions distant from the endosteal surface, suggesting that the underlying mechanism driving the increase in cortical porosity is not merely endosteal trabecularization. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a global public health problem, with fractures contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. Although postmenopausal osteoporosis is most common, up to 30% of postmenopausal women, > 50% of premenopausal women, and between 50% and 80% of men have secondary osteoporosis. Exclusion of secondary causes is important, as treatment of such patients often commences by treating the underlying condition. These are varied but often neglected, ranging from endocrine to chronic inflammatory and genetic conditions. General screening is recommended for all patients with osteoporosis, with advanced investigations reserved for premenopausal women and men aged < 50 years, for older patients in whom classical risk factors for osteoporosis are absent, and for all patients with the lowest bone mass (Z-score ≤ -2). The response of secondary osteoporosis to conventional anti-osteoporosis therapy may be inadequate if the underlying condition is unrecognized and untreated. Bone densitometry, using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, may underestimate fracture risk in some chronic diseases, including glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes, and obesity, and may overestimate fracture risk in others (eg, Turner syndrome). FRAX and trabecular bone score may provide additional information regarding fracture risk in secondary osteoporosis, but their use is limited to adults aged ≥ 40 years and ≥ 50 years, respectively. In addition, FRAX requires adjustment in some chronic conditions, such as glucocorticoid use, type 2 diabetes, and HIV. In most conditions, evidence for antiresorptive or anabolic therapy is limited to increases in bone mass. Current osteoporosis management guidelines also neglect secondary osteoporosis and these existing evidence gaps are discussed.

Gait speed and spasticity are independently associated with estimated failure load in the distal tibia after stroke: an HR-pQCT study. Osteoporos Int 2022; 33:713-724.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This HR-pQCT study was conducted to examine bone properties of the distal tibia post-stroke and to identify clinical outcomes that were associated with these properties at this site. It was found that spasticity and gait speed were independently associated with estimated failure load in individuals with chronic stroke. PURPOSE (1) To examine the influence of stroke on distal tibia bone properties and (2) the association between these properties and clinical outcomes in people with chronic stroke. METHODS Sixty-four people with stroke (age, 60.8 ± 7.7 years; time since stroke, 5.7 ± 3.9 years) and 64 controls (age: 59.4 ± 7.8 years) participated in this study. High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) was used to scan the bilateral distal tibia, and estimated failure load was calculated by automated finite element analysis. Echo intensity of the medial gastrocnemius muscle and blood flow of the popliteal artery were assessed with ultrasound. The 10-m walk test (10MWT), Fugl-Meyer Motor Assessment (FMA), and Composite Spasticity Scale (CSS) were also administered. RESULTS The percent side-to-side difference (%SSD) in estimated failure load, cortical area, thickness, and volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), and trabecular and total vBMD were significantly greater in the stroke group than their control counterparts (Cohen's d = 0.48-1.51). Isometric peak torque and echo intensity also showed significant within- and between-groups differences (p ≤ 0.01). Among HR-pQCT variables, the %SSD in estimated failure load was empirically chosen as one example of the strong discriminators between the stroke group and control group, after accounting for other relevant factors. The 10MWT and CSS subscale for ankle clonus remained significantly associated with the %SSD in estimated failure load after adjusting for other relevant factors (p ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSION The paretic distal tibia showed more compromised vBMD, cortical area, cortical thickness, and estimated failure load than the non-paretic tibia. Gait speed and spasticity were independently associated with estimated failure load. As treatment programs focusing on these potentially modifiable stroke-related impairments are feasible to administer, future studies are needed to determine the efficacy of such intervention strategies for improving bone strength in individuals with chronic stroke.

[PMID: 34820902 PMCID: PMC8828668 DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.4466] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2021] [Revised: 09/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/02/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGE) in bone alters collagen structure and function. Fluorescent AGEs are associated with fractures but less is known regarding non-fluorescent AGEs. We examined associations of carboxy-methyl-lysine (CML), with incident clinical and prevalent vertebral fractures by type 2 diabetes (T2D) status, in the Health, Aging, and Body Composition cohort of older adults. Incident clinical fractures and baseline vertebral fractures were assessed. Cox regression was used to analyze the associations between serum CML and clinical fracture incidence, and logistic regression for vertebral fracture prevalence. At baseline, mean ± standard deviation (SD) age was 73.7 ± 2.8 and 73.6 ± 2.9 years in T2D (n = 712) and non-diabetes (n = 2332), respectively. Baseline CML levels were higher in T2D than non-diabetes (893 ± 332 versus 771 ± 270 ng/mL, p < 0.0001). In multivariate models, greater CML was associated with higher risk of incident clinical fracture in T2D (hazard ratio [HR] 1.49; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.24-1.79 per 1-SD increase in log CML) but not in non-diabetes (HR 1.03; 95% CI, 0.94-1.13; p for interaction = 0.001). This association was independent of bone mineral density (BMD), glycated hemoglobin (hemoglobin A1c), weight, weight loss, smoking, cystatin-C, and medication use. CML was not significantly associated with the odds of prevalent vertebral fractures in either group. In conclusion, higher CML levels are associated with increased risk of incident clinical fractures in T2D, independent of BMD. These results implicate CML in the pathogenesis of bone fragility in diabetes. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Quantitative assessment of the mandibular condyle in patients with diabetes mellitus using diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. Oral Radiol 2022; 38:534-539. [PMID: 35025057 DOI: 10.1007/s11282-021-00585-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2021] [Accepted: 12/28/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to quantitatively assess the mandibular condyle in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) using the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI). STUDY DESIGN 102 patients with DM and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination of the TMJs at our hospital between August 2006 and March 2020 were included in this study. 112 patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) who underwent MRI examination at our hospital between April 2019 and March 2020 were included as controls. The MRI findings were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The mean ADC values of the mandibular condyle in patients with DM were significantly greater than the controls (P < 0.01). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis revealed a cutoff of 0.98 for the ADC values of the mandibular condyle in patients with DM. CONCLUSION This study found that the ADC on DWI could be used for the quantitative assessment of the mandibular condyle in patients with DM. DWI might serve as a new and noninvasive method to assess the presence of DM.

Abstract
Elderly ankle fractures in the elderly represent a substantial healthcare burden. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard for diagnosis of osteoporosis. However, there is emerging research regarding secondary imaging techniques to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD). The purpose of this systematic review was to summarize the role of secondary imaging techniques for measuring BMD in elderly ankle fractures. A literature search was undertaken using relevant search terms. Articles were screened for suitability and data extracted where studies met inclusion criteria and were of sufficient quality. Eight studies were included in the systematic review. Computed tomography (CT) may have a role in preoperative surgical planning, provide an explanation for injury patterns in elderly patients, and may be correlated with clinical outcomes. High-resolution peripheral quantitative CT may be better suited than DXA for the assessment of ankle fractures due to the resolution of the image and its ability to distinguish between bone compartments, as well as provide a more accurate estimation of bone quality. Quantitative ultrasound has shown promise as a tool for measuring BMD in patients with osteoporosis, but is not able to detect osteoporosis in patients with ankle fractures. This paper helps define the role of each modality in the spectrum of care in the evaluation of osteoporosis as it pertains to elderly ankle fractures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Metabolic syndrome (MetS), type 1 diabetes (T1D), and type 2 diabetes, are associated with an increased risk of fractures; however, the impact of obesity on bone deficits in diabetes is unknown. We aimed to compare markers of bone structure, bone density, and bone turnover in non-diabetic overweight men with MetS and overweight men with T1D or T2D. METHODS AND RESEARCH DESIGN In this cross-sectional study we included participants from two previously described study cohorts consisting of participants with diabetes and participants with MetS. Participants underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measuring areal bone mineral density (aBMD) at the hip and lumbar spine, High Resolution peripheral Quantitative (HRpQCT) scan of the tibia and radius and measurement of circulating bone turnover markers. We compared groups with unpaired t test and performed multiple linear regression with adjustment for age, body mass index, and smoking. RESULTS We included 33 participants with T1D, 25 participants with T2D, and 34 participants with MetS. Bone turnover markers levels were comparable between T1D and MetS. aBMD at the hip was lower in T1D compared to MetS, also after adjustment. P1NP and Osteocalcin levels were lower among individuals with T2D compared to MetS, whereas aBMD were similar between the groups after multiple adjustments. We observed no difference in volumetric BMD at the tibia or radius between MetS and T1D and T2D, respectively. Participants with T2D had a higher trabecular number and lower trabecular separation compared to individuals with MetS at the tibia, which remained signficant after multiple adjustments. CONCLUSION In conclusion, we observed no clinically important differences in bone density or structure between men with T2D, T1D, or MetS. However, men with T2D displayed lower bone turnover compared to MetS highlighting that T2D per se and not obesity, is associated with low bone turnover.

Calcif Tissue Int 2022; 110:65-73.

Abstract
Individuals with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) have an increased risk of hip fracture, especially if vascular complications are present. However, microstructural origins of increased bone fragility in T2DM are still controversial. DXA measurement of the contralateral hip and three-dimensional microCT analyses of femoral neck trabecular microarchitecture were performed in 32 individuals (26 women and 6 men, 78 ± 7 years). The specimens were divided to two groups: T2DM individuals with hip fracture (DMFx, n = 18) and healthy controls (CTL, n = 14). DMFx group consisted of individuals with vascular complications (DMFx_VD, n = 8) and those without vascular complications (DMFx_NVD, n = 10). T-score was significantly lower in DMFx_VD and DMFx_NVD than in controls (p < 0.001). BV/TV, Tb.N, Tb.Sp, SMI, and FD varied among DMFx_NVD, DMFx_VD, and CTL groups (p = 0.023, p = 0.004, p = 0.008, p = 0.001, p = 0.007, respectively). Specifically, BV/TV of DMFx_VD was significantly lower than that of DMFx_NVD group (p = 0.020); DMFx_NVD group had higher Tb.N and lower Tb.Sp compared with DMFx_VD (p = 0.006, p = 0.012, respectively) and CTL (p = 0.026, p = 0.035, respectively). DMFx group and healthy controls showed similar BV/TV, Tb.Th, Tb.N, Tb.Sp, Conn.D, DA, and FD (p = 0.771, p = 0.503, p = 0.285, p = 0.266, p = 0.208, p = 0.235, p = 0.688, respectively), while SMI was significantly higher in controls (p = 0.005). Two distinct phenotypes of bone fragility were identified in T2DM patients: patients with vascular complications showed impaired trabecular microarchitecture, whereas bone fragility in the group without vascular complications was independent on trabecular microarchitecture pattern. Such heterogeneity among T2DM patients may explain contradicting literature data and may set a basis for further studies to evaluate fracture risk related to T2DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have increased risk for bone fractures which points towards impaired bone quality. METHODS We measured bone mineralization density distribution (BMDD) and osteocyte lacunae section (OLS) characteristics based on quantitative backscattered electron images of transiliac biopsy samples from n=26 premenopausal women with T2DM. Outcomes were compared to those from reference cohorts as well as between T2DM subgroups defined by clinical characteristics. RESULTS Comparison to references did not reveal any differences in BMDD (all p>0.05) but a lowered OLS-density in cancellous bone in T2DM (-14.9%, p<0.001). Neither BMDD nor OLS-characteristics differed in T2DM subgroups defined by HbA1c (<7% versus >7%). The average degree of bone mineralization (CaMean) was higher (0.44 wt%Ca in T2DM, 0.30 wt%Ca in reference) and consistently the calcium concentration between the tetracycline double labels (CaYoung) was higher (0.76 wt%Ca, all p<0.001) in cancellous versus cortical bone. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that bone matrix mineralization was neither affected by the presence nor by the glycemic control of T2DM in our study cohort. The intra-individual differences between cancellous and cortical bone mineralization gave evidence for differences in the time course of the early mineralization process in these compartments in general.

Abstract
AIM Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) have more risk of bone fractures. However, areal bone mineral density (aBMD) by conventional dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is not useful for identifying this risk. This study aims to evaluate 3D-DXA parameters determining the cortical and trabecular compartments in patients with T2DM compared to non-diabetic subjects and to identify their determinants. MATERIALS AND METHODS Case-control study in 111 T2DM patients (65.4 ± 7.6 years old) and 134 non-diabetic controls (64.7 ± 8.6-year-old). DXA, 3D-DXA modelling via 3D-Shaper software and trabecular bone score (TBS) were used to obtain aBMD, cortical and trabecular parameters, and lumbar spine microarchitecture, respectively. In addition, biochemical markers as 25-hydroxyvitamin d, type I procollagen N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX), and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) were analysed. RESULTS Mean-adjusted values showed higher aBMD (5.4%-7.7%, ES: 0.33-0.53) and 3D-DXA parameters (4.1%-10.3%, ES: 0.42-0.68) in the T2DM group compared with the control group. However, TBS was lower in the T2DM group compared to the control group (-14.7%, ES: 1.18). In addition, sex (β = 0.272 to 0.316) and body mass index (BMI) (β = 0.236 to 0.455) were the most consistent and positive predictors of aBMD (p ≤ 0.01). BMI and P1NP were negative predictors of TBS (β = -0.530 and -0.254, respectively, p ≤ 0.01), while CTX was a positive one (β = 0.226, p=0.02). Finally, BMI was consistently the strongest positive predictor of 3D-DXA parameters (β = 0.240 to 0.442, p<0.05). CONCLUSION Patients with T2DM present higher bone mass measured both by conventional DXA and 3D-DXA, suggesting that 3D-DXA technology is not capable of identifying alterations in bone structure in this population. Moreover, BMI was the most consistent determinant in all bone outcomes.

Abstract
CONTEXT High fracture risk in individuals with low muscle strength is attributed to high risk of falls. OBJECTIVE This work aims to study the association of muscle mass and physical performance with bone microarchitecture decline and risk of fall and nonvertebral fracture in men. METHODS A prospective, 8-year follow-up of a cohort was conducted among the general population. A total of 821 volunteer men aged 60 and older participated. Hip areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and appendicular lean mass (ALM) were assessed at baseline by dual x-ray absorptiometry. Lower-limb relative ALM (RALM-LL) is ALM-LL/(leg length)2. The physical performance score reflects the ability to perform chair stands and static and dynamic balance. Bone microarchitecture was assessed by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) at baseline and after 4 and 8 years. Statistical analyses were adjusted for shared risk factors. Outcome measurements included the rate of change in the HR-pQCT indices, incident falls, and fractures. RESULTS Cortical bone loss and estimated bone strength decline were faster in men with low vs normal RALM-LL (failure load: -0.74 ± 0.09 vs -0.43 ± 0.10%/year; P < .005). Differences were similar between men with poor and those with normal physical performance (failure load: -1.12 ± 0.09 vs -0.40 ± 0.05%/year; P < .001). Differences were similar between men having poor performance and low RALM-LL and men having normal RALM-LL and performance (failure load: -1.40 ± 0.17 vs -0.47 ± 0.03%/year; P < .001). Men with poor physical performance had a higher risk of fall (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.52; 95% CI, 1.57-7.90, P < .05) and fracture (HR = 2.68; 95% CI, 1.08-6.66, P < .05). CONCLUSION Rapid decline of bone microarchitecture and estimated strength in men with poor physical performance and low RALM-LL may contribute to higher fracture risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with primary osteosarcoma improves survival rates, but it also causes side effects in various organs including bone. Low bone mineral density (BMD) can occur owing partly to chemotherapy or limited mobility. This can cause a higher risk of fractures compared with those who do not receive such treatment. Changes in BMD alone cannot explain the propensity of fractures. Studying microarchitectural changes of bone might help to understand the effect. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Do patients who were treated for osteosarcoma (more than 20 years previously) have low BMD? (2) Do these patients experience more fractures than controls who do not have osteosarcoma? (3) What differences in bone microarchitecture are present between patients treated for high-grade osteosarcoma and individuals who have never had osteosarcoma? METHODS We contacted 48 patients who were treated for osteosarcoma and who participated in an earlier study. These patients underwent multimodal treatment including chemotherapy more than 20 years ago. Of the original patient group, 60% (29 of 48) were missing, leaving 40% (19 of 48) available for inclusion in this study; all 19 agreed to participate. There were nine men and 10 women with a mean age of 46 ± 4 years and a mean time from surgery to examination of 28 ± 3 years. BMD was measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, and any fracture history was assessed using a questionnaire. Additionally, high-resolution peripheral quantitative CT was performed to compare the groups in terms of microarchitectural changes, such as cortical and trabecular area, cortical and trabecular thickness, cortical porosity, and endocortical perimeter. Participants in the control group were selected from a cohort consisting of a population-based random sample of 499 healthy adult women and men. Osteoporosis or low BMD was not an exclusion criterion for entering this study; however, the patients in the control group were selected based on a normal BMD (that is, T score > -1.0 at both the spine and hip). Also, the participants were matched based on age and sex. Differences between patients and controls were assessed using the Wilcoxon rank sum test for continuous variables and a chi-square test for categorical variables. A multiple regression analysis was performed. Model assumptions were checked using histograms and quantile-quantile plots of residuals. RESULTS Twelve of 19 patients who were treated for osteosarcoma had either osteopenia (eight patients) or osteoporosis (four patients). More patients with osteosarcoma reported sustaining fractures (11 of 19 patients) than did control patients (2 of 19 controls; p < 0.001). Among all microarchitectural parameters, only the endocortical perimeter was increased in patients compared with the control group (75 ± 15 mm versus 62 ± 18 mm; p = 0.04); we found no differences between the groups in terms of cortical and trabecular area, cortical and trabecular thickness, or cortical porosity. CONCLUSION Although patients who were treated for osteosarcoma had osteopenic or osteoporotic BMD and a higher proportion of patients experienced fractures than did patients in the control group, we could not confirm differences in microarchitectural parameters using high-resolution peripheral quantitative CT. Therefore, it seems that bone geometry and microstructural parameters are not likely the cause of the increased proportion of fractures observed in our patients who were treated for osteosarcoma. Until we learn more about the bone changes associated with chemotherapy in patients with osteosarcoma, we recommend that patients undergo regular BMD testing, and we recommend that physicians consider osteoporosis treatment in patients with low BMD. These data might provide the impetus for future multicenter prospective studies examining the association between chemotherapy and bone microarchitecture. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, therapeutic study.
