Abstract
PURPOSE Despite understanding the connection between obesity and fracture risk, there is limited research on the implications of lower limb fractures on subsequent changes in body mass index (BMI). Our study aimed to assess the impact of lower limb fractures on BMI alterations over an 18-month period. METHODS A multi-center, prospective cohort study was conducted between January 2021 to June 2023, involving 494 adults with lower limb fractures. Participants were recruited within 2 weeks post-injury and were assessed for demographics, injury details, and weight at seven distinct time points. By 18 months, the primary outcome was the mean weight gain. RESULTS The average age of the participants was 39 (± 12.7) with a baseline weight and BMI of 80.4 kg and 27.6, respectively. At the 18-month follow-up, 75% of patients experienced an average weight increase in 4 kg (± 5.39 kg), equating to a BMI rise of 1.39 (± 1.88). Most patients attributed weight changes to their injury, with nearly half expressing distress from their weight change. Only 37% believed that they had resumed their previous activity levels by the final follow-up. Approximately 31% of the patients sought some form of external weight management care in the form of nutritionist advice, training programs, medication and weight management procedures. CONCLUSIONS Lower limb fractures significantly affect weight gain over an 18-month period, with substantial psychological and physical consequences. Healthcare providers should anticipate potential weight gain post-fracture and incorporate strategies addressing both physical and mental aspects of rehabilitation to enhance recovery outcomes. Early and even immediate weight bearing may play a pivotal role in mitigating weight changes and returning the patient to their previous level of activity. Further detailed studies focusing on different fractures and postoperative interventions are recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine the association of body composition, muscle strength, balance, and functional capacity on falls and fall injuries among community-dwelling older women. METHODS The study comprised of a 2-year randomized controlled trial involving 914 women with an average age of 76.5 (SD = 3.3) years at baseline. The women were assigned to exercise intervention (n = 457) and control groups (n = 457). Clinical measurements were conducted at baseline, 12 months and 24 months. RESULTS During the 2-year follow up, total of 546 women (59.7%) sustained a fall. The total number of falls was 1380 and out of these, 550 (40%) of falls were non-injurious and 745 (54%) were injurious. Higher femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) was associated with a higher overall risk of falls [RR = 2.55 (95% CI = 1.70-3.84, p < 0.001)], but was a protective factor for severe fall injuries [RR = 0.03 (95% CI = 0.003-0.035, p < 0.01)]. Slower Timed Up and Go (TUG) was associated with an increased overall risk of falls [RR = 1.07 (95% CI = 1.05-1.10, p < 0.001)] and injuries requiring medical attention [RR = 1.10 (95% CI = 1.02-1.19, p = 0.02)]. Longer single leg standing time was a protective factor for falls [RR = 0.99 (95% CI = 0.99-1.00, p < 0.01)] and overall injurious falls [RR = 0.99 (95% CI = 0.99-1.00, p = 0.02)]. CONCLUSION For postmenopausal women with higher femoral neck BMD appear to sustain more falls, but have a lower risk of severe fall injuries. Better TUG and single leg standing time predict lower risk of falls and fall injuries.

Diagnostics (Basel) 2024; 14:452. [PMID: 38396490 PMCID: PMC10887529 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics14040452] [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: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/14/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Long-term Glucocorticoid (GC) use results in compromised bone strength and fractures, and several treatment recommendations have been developed to prevent fractures, but none have been validated in a real-world setting. This study aims to create a treatment decision tool and compares this tool to the treatment suggestions from the American College of Rheumatology (ACR), International Osteoporosis Foundation and European Calcified Tissue Society (IOF-ECTS), and GC-adjusted Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (GC-FRAX), above the intervention threshold. We utilized registry data gathered at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital at Kaohsiung, Taiwan, between September 2014 and April 2021. This research is a single-center, observational, and case-controlled study. We recruited participants using prednisone for at least 2.5 mg/day or the equivalent dose for over 3 months, excluding those younger than 40, those with malignancies, or those currently undergoing anti-osteoporosis therapy. The primary endpoint was new fragility fractures within 3 years, including morphometric vertebral fractures detected at baseline and with a follow-up thoracic-lumbar spine X-ray. Participants were randomly allocated into derivation and validation sets. We developed the Steroid-Associated Fracture Evaluation (SAFE) tool in the derivation cohort by assessing the weights of exploratory variables via logistic regression. Prediction performance was compared in the validation set by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, the area under the curve (AUC), and sensitivity and specificity. A total of 424 treatment-naïve subjects were enrolled, and 83 (19.6%) experienced new fractures within 3 years. The final formula of the SAFE tool includes osteoporosis (1 point), an accumulated GC dose ≥ 750 mg within 6 months (or equivalent prednisolone of ≥4.5 mg/day for 6 months) (1 point), a BMI ≥ 23.5 (1 point), previous fractures (1 point), and elderliness of ≥70 years (2 points). In the validation set, a treatment decision based on the SAFE ≥ 2 points demonstrated an AUC of 0.65, with a sensitivity/specificity/accuracy of 75.9/54.0/58.9, with an ACR of 0.56 (100.0/11.0/31.0), IOF-ECTS 0.61 (75.9/46.0/52.7), and GC-FRAX 0.62 (82.8/42.0/51.2). Among current GIOP recommendations, the SAFE score serves as an appropriate treatment decision tool with increased accuracy and specificity.

Improved femoral micro-architecture in adult male individuals with overweight: fracture resistance due to regional specificities. Int J Obes (Lond) 2024; 48:202-208. [PMID: 37770573 DOI: 10.1038/s41366-023-01389-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2023] [Revised: 09/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/30/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND It is still unclear whether femoral fracture risk is positively or negatively altered in individuals with overweight. Considering the lack of studies including men with overweight, this study aimed to analyze regional specificities in mechano-structural femoral properties (femoral neck and intertrochanteric region) in adult male cadavers with overweight compared to their normal-weight age-matched counterparts. METHODS Ex-vivo osteodensitometry, micro-computed tomography, and Vickers micro-indentation testing were performed on femoral samples taken from 30 adult male cadavers, divided into the group with overweight (BMI between 25 and 30 kg/m2; n = 14; age:55 ± 16 years) and control group (BMI between 18.5 and 25 kg/m2; n = 16; age:51 ± 18 years). RESULTS Better quality of trabecular and cortical microstructure in the inferomedial (higher trabecular bone volume fraction, trabecular thickness, and cortical thickness, coupled with reduced cortical pore diameter, p < 0.05) and superolateral femoral neck (higher trabecular number and tendency to lower cortical porosity, p = 0.043, p = 0.053, respectively) was noted in men with overweight compared to controls. Additionally, the intertrochanteric region of men with overweight had more numerous and denser trabeculae, coupled with a thicker and less porous cortex (p < 0.05). Still, substantial overweight-induced change in femoral osteodensitometry parameters and Vickers micro-hardness was not demonstrated in assessed femoral subregions (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Despite the absence of significant changes in femoral osteodensitometry, individuals with overweight had better trabecular and cortical femoral micro-architecture implying higher femoral fracture resistance. However, the microhardness was not significantly favorable in the individuals who were overweight, indicating the necessity for further research.

Abstract
We aimed to estimate the absolute and age-standardized number of hip fractures in Sweden during the past two decades to produce time trends and future projections. We used nationwide register data from 1998 to 2019 and a validated algorithm to calculate the annual absolute and age-standardized number of incident hip fractures over time. The total hip fracture burden was 335,399 incident events over the 22 years, with a change from 16,180 in 1998 to 13,929 in 2019, a 14% decrease. One decade after the index hip fracture event, 80% of the patients had died, and 11% had a new hip fracture. After considering the steady growth of the older population, the decline in the age-standardized number of hip fractures from 1998 through 2019 was 29.2% (95% CI 28.1-30.2%) in women and 29.3% (95% CI 27.5-30.7%) in men. With a continued similar reduction in hip fracture incidence, we can predict that 14,800 hip fractures will occur in 2034 and 12,000 in 2050 despite doubling the oldest old (≥ 80 years). Without an algorithm, a naïve estimate of the total number of hip fractures over the study period was 539,947, with a second 10-year hip fracture risk of 35%. We note an ongoing decline in the absolute and age-standardized actual number of hip fractures in Sweden, with consequences for future projections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fractures present serious health challenges for older adults, including premature mortality and reduced quality of life. Obesity has become significantly prevalent in China. However, the association between obesity and fractures remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the association between obesity and fractures among Chinese women above 50 years of age. METHODS A prospective cohort study was designed based on the China Health and Nutrition Survey, using data from 1997 to 2015. The average follow-up duration was seven years. Trained investigators measured body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) at baseline. Obesity was defined according to World Health Organization recommendations. Waist-to-height ratio (W-HtR) was calculated, with 0.5 as the cutoff value. Onset of fractures, self-reported by the participants during the follow-up period, was the primary outcome. Cox hazard regression models were used to assess the association between BMI, WC, W-HtR and subsequent risk of fracture. A sensitivity analysis was conducted by multiple imputation of missing data on the variables at baseline. RESULTS A total of 2,641 women aged ≥ 50 years were involved in the study. In all the models, no significant association existed between BMI and fracture risk. However, women with WC ≥ 88 cm had significantly higher risk of fracture than those with WC < 80 cm according to both the unadjusted (HR = 1.744, 95% CI: 1.173-2.591) and adjusted models (HR = 1.796, 95% CI: 1.196-2.695). In addition, W-HtR and fracture risk were positively associated according to both the unadjusted (HR = 1.798, 95% CI: 1.230-2.627) and adjusted models (HR = 1.772, 95% CI: 1.209-2.599). Results of the sensitivity analysis were consistent with those of the above analyses. CONCLUSIONS Abdominal obesity increased the risk of all-cause fractures in Chinese women ≥ 50 years old. Intervention strategies and measures to prevent or address abdominal obesity would be helpful to decrease the fracture incidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD) contribute to osteoporosis risk, but the effect of a newly developed index (e.g., a body shape index, ABSI) of central obesity and its interaction with low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on osteoporosis remains unknown. METHODS A total of 2534 Chinese individuals were enrolled in our ongoing cohort study: Osteoporosis Preventive Project. ABSI and eGFR were calculated as obesity-related indexes and renal function markers, respectively. A logistic regression model was used to estimate the association between osteoporosis and related clinical parameters (e.g., ABSI, eGFR), and to assess the additive and multiplicative interactions between risk factors and osteoporosis. Relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI), attributable proportion due to interaction (AP) and synergy index (SI) were calculated to assess the additive interaction. RESULTS High ABSI was significantly associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis in participants compared with the lowest quartile of ABSI in both crude and adjusted models. Individuals in the lower quartiles of eGFR had a significantly increased risk of osteoporosis compared with those in the highest quartiles in crude models. After adding age and other variables in the model, the association was abolished. In addition, after adjusting for variables, high ABSI with low eGFR (RERI: 0.45, 95% CI: 0.15-0.75; AP: 0.39, 95% CI: 0.17-0.60) still displayed a noticeable interaction on the risk of osteoporosis. The multiplicative interactive effect between high ABSI with low eGFR on osteoporosis was statistically significant in the multivariable-adjusted model (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our study indicated that higher ABSI increases the risk of osteoporosis independently and synergistically with low eGFR in Chinese elderly adults. The findings increase our understanding of the interactions of osteoporosis risk factors and may help provide potential interventions for osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with an increased risk of fracture in adults, but is unclear in postmenopausal women. We aim to determine the association of obesity with the risk of fracture in postmenopausal women. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library and Web of Science were searched up to 11 April 2022 for cohort studies. And the included studies regarding the relationship between obesity with all cause of fracture in postmenopausal women were included in our meta-analysis. Data were screened and extracted independently by two reviewers. The relative risks (RR) were estimated using a random-effects model. Between-study heterogeneity was assessed using Cochran's Q and I2 statistics. RESULTS Eight cohort studies comprising 671,532 postmenopausal women and 40,172 fractures were included. Overall, the pooling analysis shows that obesity in postmenopausal women is associated with an increased risk of all-cause fracture (relative ratio (RR) = 1.18; 95% confidence interval (CI):1.09-1.28, I2 = 86.3%, p = .000). Sub-analyses for each site of fracture indicate that obesity was associated with an increased risk of vertebral fracture in postmenopausal women (RR = 1.154, 95% CI: 1.020-1.305, I2 = 94.5%, p = .023), but reduced the risk of pelvic fracture (RR = 0.575, 95% CI:0.470-0.702, I2 = 0.0%, p = .000). There is no statistically significant difference in the risk of hip and humerus fractures associated with obesity in postmenopausal women. CONCLUSION Obesity is associated with an increased risk of all-cause and vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women, but is a protective factor for pelvic fractures. Our findings suggest that postmenopausal women who regulate their weight might lower their risk of fractures.Registration: (PROSPERO: CRD42022324973)KEY MESSAGESObesity is associated with an increased risk of all-cause and vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women.Obesity maybe a protective factor for pelvic fractures in postmenopausal women.Postmenopausal women should regulate their weight to prevent fractures.

Influence of Obesity and Changes in Weight or BMI on Incident Fractures in Postmenopausal Women: From Peking Vertebral Fracture Study. Calcif Tissue Int 2023; 113:483-495.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate the influence of overweight/obesity and change in weight or body mass index (BMI) on incident fractures among Chinese postmenopausal women. According to BMI, 754 postmenopausal women were categorized into normal weight (NW), overweight (OW), and obesity (OB) groups, respectively. We used data from the baseline and the second survey for statistical analysis, including anthropometric data, clinical fractures, and morphometric vertebral fractures (MVFs) assessed by X-rays. The prevalence of previous MVFs was 32.7% and 21.8% in the OB and NW groups, respectively (p < 0.05). All incident fractures and incident MVFs accounted for 10.7 and 6.3% among all participants within five years. Overweight/obesity and increase in weight or BMI during the follow-up had no associations with all incident fractures, incident MVFs, and incident clinical non-VFs among all participants. However, after multivariate adjustment, the increased BMI at baseline was the risk factor of incident MVFs in the OW group (odds ratio, OR 2.06, 95% confidence interval, 95% CI 1.16-3.66, p = 0.014), and increase in weight (OR 0.89, 95% CI 0.79-0.99, p = 0.036) or BMI (OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.59-0.99, p = 0.045) during the follow-up were the protective factors of all incident fractures in the NW group. Overweight/obesity and change in weight or BMI do not correlate with fracture risk in postmenopausal women, but an increase in weight is the protective factor against incident fractures in normal-weight participants. Overweight postmenopausal women with a higher BMI should pay attention to the risk of MVFs.

Abstract
Obesity accelerates the aging processes, resulting in an aggravation of aging-induced osteoporosis. We investigated the anti-osteoporotic effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in obese- and lean-aged rats through measurement of cellular senescence, hypoxia, inflammation, antioxidants, and bone microarchitecture. Obese and lean male Wistar rats were injected with 150 mg/kg/day of D-galactose for 8 weeks to induce aging. Then, all rats were randomly given either sham or HBOT for 14 days. Metabolic parameters were determined. Expression by bone mRNA for cellular senescence, hypoxia, inflammation, antioxidative capacity, and bone remodeling were examined. Micro-computed tomography and atomic absorption spectroscopy were performed to evaluate bone microarchitecture and bone mineral profiles, respectively. We found that HBOT restored the alterations in the mRNA expression level of p16, p21, HIF-1α, TNF-α, IL-6, RANKL, RANK, NFATc1, DC-STAMP, Osx, ALP, and Col1a1 in the bone in obese-and lean- aging rats. In obese-aging rats, HBOT increased the level of expression of Sirt1 and CuZnSOD mRNA and diminished the expression level of HIF-2α and ctsk mRNA to the same levels as the control group. However, HBOT failed to alter catalase and OCN mRNA expression in obese-aged rats. HBOT partially improved the bone microarchitecture in obese-aged rats, but completely restored it in lean-aged rats. Interestingly, HBOT protected against obesity-induced demineralization in obese-aged rats. In summary, HBOT exerts an anti-osteoporotic effect in lean-aged rats and prevents some, but not all the negative effects of obese-aged conditions on bone health. Therefore, HBOT is considered as a potential therapy for aging-induced osteoporosis, regardless of obese status.

Abstract
Aim To explore the risk factors of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women in China. Method This study collected all patient data from January 2014 to December 2015. Basic information and questionnaires were collected from 524 postmenopausal women in Sanya and Hainan Province. The questionnaire was administered to the enrolled participants by endocrinologists. Biochemical parameters were measured using fasting blood samples, and bone density was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry at the department of radiology of Hainan hospital, PLA General Hospital. Participants with an R-value of ≤-2.5 were diagnosed with osteoporosis. After deleting missing values for each factor, 334 participants were divided into the osteoporosis (n=35) and non-osteoporosis (n=299) groups according to the R-values. Results The participants had a median age of 60.8 years (range: 44-94 years). Among the 334 postmenopausal women included in this study, 35 (10.5%) were diagnosed with osteoporosis. Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences in age, BMI, type of work, alkaline phosphatase, years of smoking, blood calcium levels, kyphosis, fracture, and asthma between the two groups (P<0.05). In addition, multivariate logistic analysis showed that age (odds ratio [OR]: 1.185, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.085-1.293, P<0.001) and kyphosis times (OR:1.468, 95% CI: 1.076-2.001, P=0.015) were positively correlated with postmenopausal osteoporosis, whereas BMI (OR: 0.717, 95% CI: 0.617-0.832, P<0.001), blood calcium levels (OR: 0.920, 95% CI: 0.854-0.991, P=0.027), vitamin D levels (OR: 0.787, 95% CI: 0.674-0.918, P=0.002), and outdoor activity time (OR: 0.556, 95% CI: 0.338-0.915, P=0.021) were negatively correlated with postmenopausal osteoporosis. Conclusion Low BMI, blood calcium and vitamin D levels, kyphosis time, and outdoor activity time are independent risk factors for osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

Abstract
Chronic positive energy balance has surged among societies worldwide due to increasing dietary energy intake and decreasing physical activity, a phenomenon called the energy balance transition. Here, we investigate the effects of this transition on bone mass and strength. We focus on the Indigenous peoples of New Mexico in the United States, a rare case of a group for which data can be compared between individuals living before and after the start of the transition. We show that since the transition began, bone strength in the leg has markedly decreased, even though bone mass has apparently increased. Decreased bone strength, coupled with a high prevalence of obesity, has resulted in many people today having weaker bones that must sustain excessively heavy loads, potentially heightening their risk of a bone fracture. These findings may provide insight into more widespread upward trends in bone fragility and fracture risk among societies undergoing the energy balance transition.

Abstract
Many medical conditions affect the skeletal system and constitute independent risk factors for fractures. The action of thyroid hormones is necessary to maintain adequate development, mineralization, and bone strength. Untreated hyperthyroidism can lead to a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD), osteoporosis, and pathological fractures. In hypothyroidism, the changes in the quality of bone structure lead to an increase in the frequency of fractures. Excessive body weight negatively impacts fracture risk, increases the risk of osteoarthritis and accelerates the development of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis. Type 1 and type 2 diabetes are associated with an increased risk of bone fractures despite different etiopathogenesis due to the duration of the disease and the pro-inflammatory state, the incorporation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) into the bone matrix, and microvascular disorders. This study summarizes the current literature on the influence of thyroid dysfunction, obesity, and diabetes on the skeletal system.

Abstract
Differentiation and optimal function of osteoblasts and osteoclasts are contingent on synthesis and maintenance of a healthy proteome. Impaired and/or altered secretory capacity of these skeletal cells is a primary driver of most skeletal diseases. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) orchestrates the folding and maturation of membrane as well as secreted proteins at high rates within a calcium rich and oxidative organellar niche. Three ER membrane proteins monitor fidelity of protein processing in the ER and initiate an intricate signaling cascade known as the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) to remediate accumulation of misfolded proteins in its lumen, a condition referred to as ER stress. The UPR aids in fine-tuning, expanding and/or modifying the cellular proteome, especially in specialized secretory cells, to match everchanging physiologic cues and metabolic demands. Sustained activation of the UPR due to chronic ER stress, however, is known to hasten cell death and drive pathophysiology of several diseases. A growing body of evidence suggests that ER stress and an aberrant UPR may contribute to poor skeletal health and the development of osteoporosis. Small molecule therapeutics that target distinct components of the UPR may therefore have implications for developing novel treatment modalities relevant to the skeleton. This review summarizes the complexity of UPR actions in bone cells in the context of skeletal physiology and osteoporotic bone loss, and highlights the need for future mechanistic studies to develop novel UPR therapeutics that mitigate adverse skeletal outcomes.

Abstract
An estimated 25% of South African women live with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Antiretroviral therapy roll-out has improved life expectancy, so many more women now reach menopause. We aimed to quantify changes in bone mineral density (BMD) during the menopausal transition in urban-dwelling South African women with and without HIV and determine whether HIV infection modified the effect of menopause on BMD changes. A 5-year population-based longitudinal study recruited women aged 40-60 years residing in Soweto and collected demographic and clinical data, including HIV status, anthropometry, and BMD, at baseline and at 5-year follow-up. All women were staged as pre-, peri-, or postmenopausal at both time points. Multivariable linear regression assessed relationships and interactions between HIV infection, menopause, and change in BMD. At baseline, 450 women had mean age 49.5 (SD 5.7) years, 65 (14.4%) had HIV, and 140 (31.1%), 119 (26.4%), and 191 (42.4%) were pre-, peri-, and postmenopausal, respectively; 34/205 (13.6%) women ≥50 years had a total hip (TH) or lumbar spine (LS) T-score ≤ -2.5. At follow-up 38 (8.4%), 84 (18.7%), and 328 (72.9%) were pre-, peri-, and postmenopausal. Those with HIV at baseline lost more total body (TB) BMD (mean difference -0.013 [95% confidence interval -0.026, -0.001] g/cm2 , p = 0.040) and gained more weight 1.96 [0.32, 3.60] kg; p = 0.019 than HIV-uninfected women. After adjusting for age, baseline weight, weight change, and follow-up time, the transition from pre- to postmenopause was associated with greater TB BMD losses in women with HIV (-0.092 [-0.042, -0.142] g/cm2 ; p = 0.001) than without HIV (-0.038 [-0.016, -0.060] g/cm2 , p = 0.001; interaction p = 0.034). Similarly, in women who were postmenopausal at both time points, those with HIV lost more TB BMD (-0.070 [-0.031, -0.108], p = 0.001) than women without HIV (-0.036 [-0.015, -0.057], p = 0.001, interaction p = 0.049). Findings were consistent but weaker at the LS and TH. Menopause-related bone loss is greater in women with HIV, suggesting women with HIV may be at greater risk of osteoporotic fractures. HIV services should consider routine bone health assessment in midlife women as part of long-term HIV care delivery. © 2023 The Authors.

Singhal V, Kaur S, Haidar LA, Lee H, Bredella MA, Misra M. Differences in bone accrual over one year in young girls with obesity compared to Normal weight controls. Bone 2023; 172:116757. [PMID: 37030498 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2023.116757] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 04/10/2023]
Abstract
Despite higher bone mineral density (BMD), women with obesity are at an increased risk of fracture compared to normal-weight women. Optimal adolescent bone accrual is critical for normal peak bone mass acquisition and future bone health. Whereas several studies have examined the impact of low body weight on bone accrual in youth, data are lacking regarding the impact of obesity on bone accrual. We examined bone accrual over one year in young women with moderate to severe obesity (OB) (n = 21) versus normal-weight controls (NWC) (n = 50). Participants were 13-25 years old. We used dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry to assess areal BMD (aBMD) and high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (distal radius and tibia) to assess volumetric BMD (vBMD), bone geometry, and microarchitecture. Analyses were controlled for age and race. The mean age was 18.7 ± 2.7 years. OB and NWC were similar for age, race, height, and physical activity. OB had a higher BMI (p < 0.0001) and younger menarchal age (p = 0.022) than NWC. Over one year, OB did not demonstrate the increase in total hip BMD observed in NWC (p = 0.03). Increases in percent cortical area and cortical thickness, and cortical and total vBMD at the radius were lower in OB than in NWC (p ≤ 0.037). Groups did not differ for tibial bone accrual. We demonstrate that longitudinal bone accrual is impaired at the total hip and radial cortex in young women with obesity, raising concerns regarding their future bone health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neck of femur fractures (NOFF) pose significant socio-economic costs to society with a high degree of morbidity and mortality. Its incidence rate has been collated within the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database; however, to date, no comparison across countries has been reported. METHODS NOFF age-standardised incidence rates (ASIR) per 100,000 population were extracted from the GBD database for European Union (EU) 15+ countries over the period 1990 to 2017. Joinpoint regression analysis of the data identified trends in ASIR and associated estimated annual percentage changes (EAPC). These were analysed by specified timeframe, country and gender. RESULTS Of the 19 EU15+ countries, 11 (58%) had overall increases in NOFF ASIRs in 2017 compared to 1990. The median ASIRs were 240/100,000 and 322/100,000 for males and females, respectively, in 1990. By 2017, this had increased to 259/100,000 and 325/100,000, respectively. Females consistently had relatively higher NOFF ASIRs with a median gender fracture gap of 62/100,000 in 2017. Males had a higher percentage change in increasing ASIRs, with a smaller percentage change in decreasing ASIRs for all included countries. The highest national ASIRs was observed in Australia, followed by Finland and Belgium. Conversely the Mediterranean countries demonstrated the lowest ASIRs, closely followed by the USA. CONCLUSION Despite significant advances in primary and secondary hip fracture prevention strategies over the 28-year study period, significant increases in NOFF ASIRs among most EU15+ countries were observed, especially with respect to gender.

High-fat diet-induced obesity augments the deleterious effects of estrogen deficiency on bone: Evidence from ovariectomized mice. Aging Cell 2022; 21:e13726. [PMID: 36217558 PMCID: PMC9741509 DOI: 10.1111/acel.13726] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2022] [Revised: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Several epidemiological studies have suggested that obesity complicated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes exerts deleterious effects on the skeleton. While obesity coexists with estrogen deficiency in postmenopausal women, their combined effects on the skeleton are poorly studied. Thus, we investigated the impact of high-fat diet (HFD) on bone and metabolism of ovariectomized (OVX) female mice (C57BL/6J). OVX or sham operated mice were fed either HFD (60%fat) or normal diet (10%fat) for 12 weeks. HFD-OVX group exhibited pronounced increase in body weight (~86% in HFD and ~122% in HFD-OVX, p < 0.0005) and impaired glucose tolerance. Bone microCT-scanning revealed a pronounced decrease in trabecular bone volume/total volume (BV/TV) (-15.6 ± 0.48% in HFD and -37.5 ± 0.235% in HFD-OVX, p < 0.005) and expansion of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT; +60.7 ± 9.9% in HFD vs. +79.5 ± 5.86% in HFD-OVX, p < 0.005). Mechanistically, HFD-OVX treatment led to upregulation of genes markers of senescence, bone resorption, adipogenesis, inflammation, downregulation of gene markers of bone formation and bone development. Similarly, HFD-OVX treatment resulted in significant changes in bone tissue levels of purine/pyrimidine and Glutamate metabolisms, known to play a regulatory role in bone metabolism. Obesity and estrogen deficiency exert combined deleterious effects on bone resulting in accelerated cellular senescence, expansion of BMAT and impaired bone formation leading to decreased bone mass. Our results suggest that obesity may increase bone fragility in postmenopausal women.

BMC Womens Health 2022; 22:465. [PMID: 36404305 PMCID: PMC9677643 DOI: 10.1186/s12905-022-02034-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND As postmenopausal osteoporotic fractures can cause higher rates of disability and mortality in women; it is essential to analyze the factors associated with primary and recurrent fractures in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) patients. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 2478 PMOP patients aged ≥ 50 years who attended the Shanghai General Hospital from January 2007 to December 2016, including 1239 patients with no fractures and 1239 patients with histories of fractures (1008 in the primary fracture group and 231 in the re-fracture group). All patients' basic clinical data, serum biochemical and bone metabolic markers, bone mineral density (BMD), and other indicators were recorded uniformly. Comparing the differences between the clinical characteristics of patients with primary and recurrent fractures, as well as the differences in the clinical characteristics of patients with primary and recurrent fractures in combination with different diseases, further analyses the risk factors for primary and recurrent fractures in PMOP patients. SPSS.26 was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS Compared to the unfractured group, the fractured group was older and had lower height and bone mineral density (all P < 0.01), with the re-fractured group having lower BMD at each key site than the primary fracture group (all P < 0.01). Analysis of the combined disease subgroups showed that serum BGP levels were lower in the primary and re-fracture patients with diabetes than in the non-diabetic subgroup (P < 0.05), and serum CTX levels were lower in the re-fracture group with diabetes than in the primary fracture group with diabetes (P < 0.05). Patients with recurrent fractures with cardio-vascular diseases had lower BMD than the subgroup without cardio-vascular diseases (P < 0.05) and also had lower BMD than the group with primary fractures with cardio-vascular diseases (P < 0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age, overweight, low lumbar spine and total hip BMD were risk factors for primary and recurrent fractures; and comorbid chronic liver and kidney diseases were risk factors for primary fractures. CONCLUSION PMOP patients with advanced age, overweight, low bone mineral density, and comorbid chronic liver and kidney diseases are at greater risk of fractures and require early intervention to reduce fractures occurrence. Moreover, those who are elderly, overweight, and have low bone density should also be aware of the risk of re-fractures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early complications after arthroplasty for geriatric femoral neck fractures are known to negatively affect postoperative recovery and increase postoperative mortality. Identifying risk factors associated with early complications after arthroplasty may offer an opportunity to address and prevent these complications in many patients. OBJECTIVE To evaluate preoperative risk factors for early complications after arthroplasty in elderly patients with a femoral neck fracture. METHODS 119 elderly patients with femoral neck fractures who had been treated with arthroplasty (hemiarthroplasty or total hip arthroplasty) between December 2015 and December 2018 were retrospectively analysed. Early complications were defined as any complications that did not exist preoperatively, and occurred during hospital stay after arthroplasty Preoperative clinical, epidemiological and laboratory data were collected. Binary univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis were applied to identify predictors of early complications after arthroplasty for geriatric femoral neck fractures. RESULTS Median age of all patients was 80.0 (IQR 74.0-84.0) years. We identified 28 (23.5%) early complications after arthroplasty. Univariable logistic regression analysis found that preoperative body mass index (BMI p= 0.031), C-reactive protein (CRP p= 0.017) and serum Albumin (p= 0.006) were potential risk factors for early complications. Then preoperative BMI, CRP and serum Albumin were stratified and used for multivariable logistic regression analysis The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative higher BMI (⩾ 28 kg/m2; OR 10.440; 95% CI 2.674-41.170; p= 0.001) and lower serum Albumin (⩽ 35 g/L; OR 3.933; 95% CI 1.509-10.800; p= 0.006) were independent risk factors for early complications after arthroplasty in geriatric femoral neck fractures. However, preoperative higher CRP levels (> 10 mg/L; OR 1.139; 95% CI 1034-1428; p= 0.833) was found to be not an independent risk factor for early complications. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that obesity and hypoalbuminemia are independent predictors for early complications during hospital stay after arthroplasty, which should be meticulously noted to minimize these risk factors in geriatric femoral neck fractures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to investigate trends in bone mineral density (BMD) loss and related factors in early postmenopausal women in Japan, identify risk factors for future osteoporosis, and predict osteoporosis before it occurs. METHODS The study population consisted of women who were 50 to 54 years old at the time of the survey in 2002 or 2006. The study included a questionnaire and physical measurement findings (BMD, height, body weight [WT], body mass index [BMI], and handgrip strength). One hundred sixty-seven women continued to participate in the study and had BMD measurements at the 9- or 10-year follow-up of the Japanese Population-based Osteoporosis study. Statistical analyses were performed using Pearson correlation to examine each factor of physical measurement and BMD for lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN). The receiver operating characteristic curve of this data was also predictive of osteoporosis in 2011 for 2002 data; BMD at the age of 50 to 54 years was then used to predict the likelihood of being diagnosed with osteoporosis 9 and 10 years later. RESULTS At the baseline in 2002 and 2006, WT, BMI, height, and handgrip strength were positively correlated with BMD. The optimal cutoff values for BMD in 2006 to predict osteoporosis in 2016 were LS less than 0.834 g/cm 2 and FN less than 0.702 g/cm 2 . These data were also predictive of osteoporosis in 2011 for 2002 data; applying this to the 2002 data, LS/FN had a sensitivity of 92%/100%, a specificity of 87%/81%, a positive predictive value of 55%/48%, and a negative predictive value of 98%/100%. The larger WT and BMI also resulted in a greater decrease in BMD of FN after 9 or 10 years. CONCLUSIONS We have identified a cutoff value for BMD to predict future osteoporosis in menopausal women and found a negative correlation between WT and BMI in menopausal women and changes in BMD of the FN over the next 10 years.

Abstract
This study describes that low bone density is prevalent in premenopausal Saudi women, especially women of normal weight and vitamin D deficiency. Although BMD is higher in obese young women, this may not be beneficial later in life in conjunction with persistent vitamin D deficiency. INTRODUCTION Not attaining peak bone mass is one crucial factor contributing to the risk of developing osteoporosis and suffering fractures in later life. The objectives of this study were to describe the normal range of bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) in premenopausal Saudi women in relation to obesity and vitamin D insufficiency. METHODS A cross-sectional study involving 312 healthy Saudi women aged 20-40. All women were clinically examined. BMD (g/cm2) and BMC (g) assessed at total body (TB), femoral neck (FN) and lumbar spine (LS) were performed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Obesity was defined as BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 and vitamin D deficiency defined as 25(OH)D < 50 nmol/L. RESULTS Almost half of the studied women were obese, and the majority (86.2%) were deficient in vitamin D. Mean BMD in TB 1.060 ± 0.091, FN 0.918 ± 0.153 and LS 1.118 ± 0.123 g/cm2, while TB-BMC 2077 ± 272 g. When classified by BMI, the proportion with low bone density was 2-3 times higher among the normal weight compared to the obese women, p < 0.001. In the cohort overall, ~ 19% of these young premenopausal women had osteopenia or osteoporosis at the femoral neck, but 26% in normal weight, vitamin D deficient women. CONCLUSION This study shows low bone density in premenopausal Saudi women, particularly those with normal weight. While obesity appears to confer some protection against vitamin D deficiency at this age, this is assumed to change in later life.

D-galactose-induced aging aggravates obesity-induced bone dyshomeostasis. Sci Rep 2022; 12:8580.

Abstract
We aimed to compare the time-course effect of D-galactose (D-gal)-induced aging, obesity, and their combined effects on bone homeostasis. Male Wistar rats were fed with either a normal diet (ND; n = 24) or a high-fat diet (HFD; n = 24) for 12 weeks. All rats were then injected with either vehicle or 150 mg/kg/day of D-gal for 4 or 8 weeks. Blood was collected to measure metabolic, aging, oxidative stress, and bone turnover parameters. Bone oxidative stress and inflammatory markers, as well as bone histomorphometry were also evaluated. Additionally, RAW 264.7 cells were incubated with either D-gal, insulin, or D-gal plus insulin to identify osteoclast differentiation capacity under the stimulation of receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand. At week 4, D-gal-induced aging significantly elevated serum malondialdehyde level and decreased trabecular thickness in ND- and HFD-fed rats, when compared to the control group. At week 8, D-gal-induced aging further elevated advanced glycation end products, increased bone inflammation and resorption, and significantly impaired bone microarchitecture in HFD-fed rats. The osteoclast number in vitro were increased in the D-gal, insulin, and combined groups to a similar extent. These findings suggest that aging aggravates bone dyshomeostasis in the obese condition in a time-dependent manner.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity protects against bone loss, but it increases the risk of fragility fractures. AIM To determine if bone mineral density (BMD) and the prevalence of fractures are different in postmenopausal Mayan-mestizo women grouped according to their body mass index. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We studied 600 postmenopausal Maya-Mestizo women. A structured questionnaire for risk factors was applied. Body mass index (BMI) was determined. BMD was assessed at the lumbar spine and total hip by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. History of low trauma fracture was determined from medical records. ANOVA was used to compare mean BMD between women with different BMI. To compare the frequency of fractures according to BMI group, we used χ2. RESULTS According to WHO classification of BMI, 16.3% of women had normal BMI, 35.3% were overweight, and 48.4% had obesity. We found that women with obesity had a higher BMD versus women with normal BMI or overweight in all the anatomical sites analysed. The prevalence of history of fractures was 18.2%. We did not find differences between the women of different BMI; the wrist was the most frequent skeletal site of the fracture. CONCLUSIONS Obesity in postmenopausal Maya-Mestizo women is not a risk factor for developing fragility 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.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of vertebral and hip fractures in the older people and to clarify the relationship between these fractures and body mass index (BMI) along with the impact of sex differences.DesignThis was a retrospective cohort study.SettingWe used administrative claims data between April 2010 and March 2018. PARTICIPANTS Older people aged ≥75 years who underwent health examinations in 2010 and were living in the Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan were included in the study. A total of 24 691 participants were included; the mean age was 79.4±4.3 years, 10 853 males and 13 838 females, and an the mean duration of observation was 6.9±1.6 years. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES We estimated the incidence of vertebral and hip fractures by BMI category (underweight: <18.5 kg/m2, normal weight: 18.5-24.9 kg/m2, overweight and obese: ≥25.0 kg/m2) using a Kaplan-Meier curve in males and females and determined fracture risk by sex using Cox proportional hazards regression analyses. RESULTS The incidence of vertebral and hip fractures was 16.8% and 6.5%, respectively. The cumulative incidence of vertebral and hip fracture at the last observation (8 years) in each BMI groups (underweight/normal weight/overweight and obese) estimated using the Kaplan-Meier curve was 14.7%/10.4%/9.0% in males and 24.9%/23.0%/21.9% in females, and 6.3%/2.9%/2.4% in males and 14.1%/9.0%/8.1% in females, respectively, and both fractures were significantly higher in underweight groups regardless of sex. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models showed that underweight was a significant risk factor only in males for vertebral fractures and in both males and females for hip fractures. CONCLUSION Underweight was associated with fractures in the ageing population, but there was a sex difference in the effect for vertebral fractures.

Association between obesity and risk of fracture, bone mineral density and bone quality in adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0252487. [PMID: 34101735 PMCID: PMC8186797 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0252487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 61] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2021] [Accepted: 05/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between obesity and fracture risk may be skeletal site- and sex-specific but results among studies are inconsistent. Whilst several studies reported higher bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with obesity, altered bone quality could be a major determinant of bone fragility in this population. OBJECTIVES This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare, in men, premenopausal women and postmenopausal women with obesity vs. individuals without obesity: 1) the incidence of fractures overall and by site; 2) BMD; and 3) bone quality parameters (circulating bone turnover markers and bone microarchitecture and strength by advanced imaging techniques). DATA SOURCES PubMed (MEDLINE), EMBASE, Cochrane Library and Web of Science were searched from inception of databases until the 13th of January 2021. DATA SYNTHESIS Each outcome was stratified by sex and menopausal status in women. The meta-analysis was performed using a random-effect model with inverse-variance method. The risks of hip and wrist fracture were reduced by 25% (n = 8: RR = 0.75, 95% CI: 0.62, 0.91, P = 0.003, I2 = 95%) and 15% (n = 2 studies: RR = 0.85, 95% CI: 0.81, 0.88), respectively, while ankle fracture risk was increased by 60% (n = 2 studies: RR = 1.60, 95% CI: 1.52, 1.68) in postmenopausal women with obesity compared with those without obesity. In men with obesity, hip fracture risk was decreased by 41% (n = 5 studies: RR = 0.59, 95% CI: 0.44, 0.79). Obesity was associated with increased BMD, better bone microarchitecture and strength, and generally lower or unchanged circulating bone resorption, formation and osteocyte markers. However, heterogeneity among studies was high for most outcomes, and overall quality of evidence was very low to low for all outcomes. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis highlights areas for future research including the need for site-specific fracture studies, especially in men and premenopausal women, and studies comparing bone microarchitecture between individuals with and without obesity.

Cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health disorders associate with greater decreases in physical capability in older women. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2021; 22:192. [PMID: 33593350 PMCID: PMC7888167 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-021-04056-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2020] [Accepted: 01/31/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Good physical capability is an important part of healthy biological ageing. Several factors influencing physical capability have previously been reported. Long-term reports on physical capability and the onset of clinical disorders and chronic diseases are lacking. Decrease in physical capacity has been shown to increase mortality. This study focuses on the prevalence of chronic diseases. The primary objective of the study was to reveal the association between physical capability and morbidity. Secondary objectives included the validity of self-reported physical capability and the association between baseline physical capability and mortality. METHODS The OSTPRE (Kuopio Osteoporosis Risk Factor and Prevention Study) prospective cohort involved all women aged 47-56 years residing in the Kuopio Province, Finland in 1989. Follow-up questionnaires were mailed at five-year intervals. Physical capability questions were first presented in 1994. From these women, we included only completely physically capable subjects at our baseline, in 1994. Physical capability was evaluated with five scale self-reports at baseline and in 2014 as follows: completely physically capable, able to walk but not run, can walk up to 1000 m, can walk up to 100 m and temporarily severely incapable. The prevalences of selected chronic diseases, with a minimum prevalence of 10% in 2014, were compared with the change in self-reported physical capability. Additionally, associations between long-term mortality and baseline physical capability of the whole 1994 study population sample were examined with logistic regression. The correlation of self-reported physical capability with functional tests was studied cross-sectionally at the baseline for a random subsample. RESULTS Our study population consisted of 6219 Finnish women with a mean baseline age of 57.0 years. Self-reported physical capability showed statistically significant correlation with functional tests. Cardiovascular diseases and musculoskeletal disorders show the greatest correlation with decrease of physical capability. Prevalence of hypertension increased from 48.7% in the full physical capability group to 74.5% in the "able to walk up to 100 metres" group (p < 0.001). Rheumatoid arthritis showed a similar increase from 2.1 to 7.4% between these groups. Higher baseline body mass index (BMI) decreases long-term capability (P < 0.001). Women reporting full physical capability at baseline had a mortality rate of 15.1%, in comparison to 48.5% in women within the "able to walk up to 100 m" group (p = 0.357). Mortality increased steadily with worsening baseline physical capability. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study show that chronic diseases, particularly cardiovascular and musculoskeletal disorders, correlate with faster degradation of physical capability in the elderly. Similar results are shown for increase in BMI. We also demonstrate that the risk of mortality over a 20-year period is higher in individuals with poor baseline physical capability.
