Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) represents histological bone changes in patients with chronic kidney disease and is classified according to turnover and mineralization. This cross-sectional study evaluates several bone biomarkers and their ability to discriminate turnover and mineralization defects in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Bone-specific [BSAP] and total [tAP] alkaline phosphatase, procollagen-1 N-terminal propeptide [P1NP], C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide [CTX], intact [iPTH] and whole [wPTH] parathyroid hormone, sclerostin [SOST], fibroblast growth factor 23 [FGF-23], vitamin D, osteoprotegerin [OPG], and receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand [RANKL] were collected before the bone biopsy. Thirty-two patients were evaluated by bone histomorphometry, which identified mineralization defects and low and high turnover in 47%, 50%, and 41% of patients, respectively. Bone biomarkers (tAP, BSAP, CTX, P1NP) and hormones (iPTH, wPTH, and SOST) were capable of identifying low and high turnover (AUC > 0.877 and >0.857, respectively, p < 0.001). PTH plus AP had the best accuracy for identifying high turnover. BSAP > 2x, iPTH > 8x, and wPTH > 6x upper limit of normal range identified high turnover. Lower calcium values (Ca < 8.7 mg/dL) were correlated with mineralization defects. On the other hand, FGF-23, OPG, and RANKL did not impact the turnover and mineralization. While bone histomorphometry is not widely available, bone biomarkers such as BSAP, P1NP, PTH, and calcium allow the assessment of turnover and mineralization defects in HD patients. Then, using bone biomarkers may help clinicians define treatments for ROD and osteoporosis and monitor therapeutic response.

Vertebral fractures in patients with CKD and the general population: a call for diagnosis and action. Clin Kidney J 2024; 17:sfae191. [PMID: 39099567 PMCID: PMC11294886 DOI: 10.1093/ckj/sfae191] [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: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 08/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Vertebral fractures (VFs) are the most common osteoporotic fractures in the general population, and they have been associated with high mortality, decreased quality of life, and high risk of subsequent fractures, especially when recent, multiple, or severe. Currently, VF diagnosis and classification determine fracture risk and the most appropriate anti-osteoporotic treatment. However, VFs are clearly underdiagnosed, especially in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and CKD-associated osteoporosis has been disregarded until recently. VFs are associated with higher morbidity and mortality, and their prevalence and incidence differ depending on the grade of renal dysfunction (CKD G1-G5) and/or the type of renal replacement therapy (dialysis or transplantation). In addition to classical risk factors [such as higher age, female sex, reduced bone mineral density, diabetes and steroid use], various other factors have been associated with an increased risk of VFs in CKD, including CKD grade, haemodialysis vintage, time since renal transplantation, low or high intact parathyroid hormone and phosphate levels, and/or vitamin D and K1 deficiencies. Importantly, several clinical societies have recently modified their algorithms according to the fracture risk classification (including the presence of VFs) and determined the most appropriate anti-osteoporotic treatment for the general population. However, there are no specific guidelines addressing this topic in patients with CKD despite an important paradigm shift regarding the prognostic value of bone mineral density in 2017 after the publication of the CKD-Mineral and Bone Disorder Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines. A proactive attitude towards diagnosis, treatment, and research is proposed to avoid therapeutic nihilism.

Trabecular Bone Score as a Marker of Skeletal Fragility Across the Spectrum of Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2024; 109:e1534-e1543.

Abstract
CONTEXT The impairment of bone microarchitecture is a key determinant of skeletal fragility in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The trabecular bone score (TBS) has been developed as a reliable noninvasive index of bone quality. However, its utility in this setting is still debated. OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to summarize the available evidence about TBS as a marker of skeletal fragility across the spectrum of CKD. METHODS PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched until July 2023 for studies reporting data about TBS in patients with CKD. Effect sizes were pooled through a random-effect model. RESULTS Compared to controls, lower TBS values were observed in CKD patients not on dialysis (-0.057, 95%CI:[-0.090, -0.024], P < .01), in dialysis patients (-0.106, 95%CI:[-0.141, -0.070], P < .01), and in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) (-0.058, 95%CI:[-0.103, -0.012], P = .01). With respect to fracture risk, TBS was able to predict incident fractures in nondialysis patients at unadjusted analyses (hazard ratio [HR] per SD decrease: 1.45, 95%CI:[1.05, 2.00], P = .02), though only a nonsignificant trend was maintained when fully adjusting the model for FRAX® (HR = 1.26, 95%CI:[0.88, 1.80], P = .21). Dialysis patients with prevalent fractures had lower TBS values compared to unfractured ones (-0.070, 95% CI:[-0.111, -0.028], P < .01). Some studies supported a correlation between TBS and fracture risk in KTRs, but results could not be pooled due to the lack of sufficient data. CONCLUSION CKD patients are characterized by an impairment of bone microarchitecture, as demonstrated by lower TBS values, across the whole spectrum of kidney disease. TBS can also be helpful in the discrimination of fracture risk, with lower values being correlated with a higher risk of prevalent and incident fractures.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) experience a several-fold increased risk of fracture. Despite the high incidence and the associated excess morbidity and premature mortality, bone fragility in CKD, or CKD-associated osteoporosis, remains a blind spot in nephrology with an immense treatment gap. Defining the bone phenotype is a prerequisite for the appropriate therapy of CKD-associated osteoporosis at the patient level. In the present review, we suggest 10 practical 'tips and tricks' for the assessment of bone health in patients with CKD. We describe the clinical, biochemical, and radiological evaluation of bone health, alongside the benefits and limitations of the available diagnostics. A bone biopsy, the gold standard for diagnosing renal bone disease, is invasive and not widely available; although useful in complex cases, we do not consider it an essential component of bone assessment in patients with CKD-associated osteoporosis. Furthermore, we advocate for the deployment of multidisciplinary expert teams at local, national, and potentially international level. Finally, we address the knowledge gaps in the diagnosis, particularly early detection, appropriate "real-time" monitoring of bone health in this highly vulnerable population, and emerging diagnostic tools, currently primarily used in research, that may be on the horizon of clinical practice.

Biochemical Clusters as Substitutes of Bone Biopsies in Kidney Transplant Patients. Calcif Tissue Int 2024; 114:267-275.

Abstract
Bone and mineral metabolism abnormalities are frequent in kidney transplant recipients and have been associated with cardiovascular morbidity. The primary aim of this study was to analyse the association between routine clinically available biochemical evaluation, non-routine histomorphometric bone evaluation, and vascular disease in kidney transplanted patients. A cross-sectional analysis was performed on 69 patients, 1-year after kidney transplantation. Laboratory analysis, radiography of hands and pelvis, bone biopsy, bone densitometry, and coronary CT were performed. One-year post-transplantation, nearly one-third of the patients presented with hypercalcemia, 16% had hypophosphatemia, 39.3% had iPTH levels > 150 pg/mL, 20.3% had BALP levels > 40 U/L, and 26.1% had hypovitaminosis D. Evaluation of extraosseous calcifications revealed low Adragão and Agatston scores. We divided patients into three clusters, according to laboratory results routinely used in clinical practice: hypercalcemia and hyperparathyroidism (Cluster1); hypercalcemia and high BALP levels (Cluster2); hypophosphatemia and vitamin D deficiency (Cluster 3). Patients in clusters 1 and 2 had higher cortical porosity (p = 0.001) and osteoid measurements, although there was no difference in the presence of abnormal mineralization, or low volume. Patients in cluster 2 had a higher BFR/BS (half of the patients in cluster 2 had high bone turnover), and most patients in cluster 1 had low or normal bone turnover. Cluster 3 has no differences in volume, or turnover, but 60% of the patients presented with pre-osteomalacia. All three clusters were associated with high vascular calcifications scores. Vascular calcifications scores were not related to higher bone mineral density. Instead, an association was found between a higher Adragão score and the presence of osteoporosis at the femoral neck (p = 0.008). In conclusion, inferring bone TMV by daily clinical biochemical analysis can be misleading, and bone biopsy is important for assessing both bone turnover and mineralization after kidney transplantation, although hypophosphatemia combined with vitamin D deficiency is associated with abnormal mineralization. The presence of hypercalcemia with high levels of PTH or high levels of BALP, or hypophosphatemia and vitamin D deficiency should remind us to screen vascular calcification status of patients.Clinical Research: ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT02751099.

J Clin Med 2024; 13:1010. [PMID: 38398323 PMCID: PMC10889712 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13041010] [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: 12/30/2023] [Revised: 01/28/2024] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Bone strength is determined not only by bone quantity [bone mineral density (BMD)] but also by bone quality, including matrix composition, collagen fiber arrangement, microarchitecture, geometry, mineralization, and bone turnover, among others. These aspects influence elasticity, the load-bearing and repair capacity of bone, and microcrack propagation and are thus key to fractures and their avoidance. In chronic kidney disease (CKD)-associated osteoporosis, factors traditionally associated with a lower bone mass (advanced age or hypogonadism) often coexist with non-traditional factors specific to CKD (uremic toxins or renal osteodystrophy, among others), which will have an impact on bone quality. The gold standard for measuring BMD is dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, which is widely accepted in the general population and is also capable of predicting fracture risk in CKD. Nevertheless, a significant number of fractures occur in the absence of densitometric World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for osteoporosis, suggesting that methods that also evaluate bone quality need to be considered in order to achieve a comprehensive assessment of fracture risk. The techniques for measuring bone quality are limited by their high cost or invasive nature, which has prevented their implementation in clinical practice. A bone biopsy, high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography, and impact microindentation are some of the methods established to assess bone quality. Herein, we review the current evidence in the literature with the aim of exploring the factors that affect both bone quality and bone quantity in CKD and describing available techniques to assess them.

Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) starts early and progresses with further loss of kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). There are four distinct types of ROD based on undecalcified bone biopsy results. Adynamic bone disease and osteomalacia are the predominant forms of low bone turnover, while hyperparathyroid bone disease and mixed uremic osteodystrophy (MUO) are typically associated with high bone turnover. MUO is a prevalent but poorly described pathology that demonstrates evidence of osteomalacia on top of the high bone formation/resorption. The prevalence of MUO ranges from 5 to 63% among different studies. The pathogenesis of MUO is multi-factorial. Altered phosphate homeostasis, hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiency, increased FGF-23, interleukins 1 and 6, TNF-α, amyloid, and heavy metal accumulation are the main inducers of MUO. The clinical findings of MUO are usually non-specific. The use of non-invasive testing such as bone turnover markers and imaging techniques might help to suspect MUO. However, it is usually impossible to precisely diagnose this condition without performing bone biopsy. The principal management of MUO is to control the maladaptive hyperparathyroidism along with correcting any nutritional mineral deficiencies that may induce mineralization defect. MUO is a common but still poorly understood bone pathology category; it demonstrates the complexity and difficulty in understanding ROD. A large prospective bone biopsy-based studies are needed for better identification as proper diagnosis and management would improve the outcome of patients with MUO.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study is to establish a suitable animal model of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) by comparing CKD-MBD rat models induced by 5/6 Nx, AN, and UUO, accompanied by a low-calcium and high-phosphorus diet. Methods: Sprague‒Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups: control group, 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 Nx) group, Adriamycin nephropathy (AN) group, and unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) group. Serum biochemical indices were measured to evaluate renal function, mineral and bone metabolism, the severity of CKD-MBD, and the status of bone transformation. Hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE) and Masson's trichrome (Masson) staining were used for histopathological analysis of the kidney. Goldner's trichrome (Goldner) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining were utilized to observe bone mineralization and osteoclasts in the femur, respectively. Micro-CT images were applied to study the structure of the femur. The expression levels of osterix and cathepsin K in the femur were measured by immunohistochemistry (IHC) to confirm the status of bone transformation. Results: The levels of serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in the 5/6 Nx and AN group rats were significantly higher than those in the control rats, and this change was accompanied by marked changes in the levels of calcium (Ca), phosphate (Pi), intact parathyroid hormone (i-PTH), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), osteocalcin (OC), and cross-linked C-telopeptide of type 1 collagen (CTX-1); UUO group rats exhibited slight and inconsistent variations in the levels of Scr, BUN, Ca, Pi, i-PTH, FGF23, OC, and CTX-1 in serum. Histopathological analysis of the kidney showed that the UUO group rats suffered serious fibrosis and 5/6 Nx group rats exhibited severe focal calcification. Histopathological analysis of the femur showed that the AN group rats had minimal bone mineralization and that the 5/6 Nx group rats had overactive osteoclasts. Micro-CT revealed that the AN model had the most severe bone destruction and that the 5/6 Nx model had the least severe bone loss among the three models. The expression of cathepsin K in the femur was significantly increased in all models, while the expression of osterix in the femur was only significantly increased in the 5/6 Nx model. Conclusion: 5/6 Nx, AN, and UUO accompanied by a low-calcium and high-phosphorus diet successfully induced CKD-MBD in rats. The 5/6 NX model presented the progression of high-turnover bone disease, with consistency between biochemical indices in serum and histomorphometric analysis of the femur, and the AN and UUO models developed a severe deterioration in bone quantity and severe bone resorption; however, the changes in biochemical indices were subtle in the UUO model, and liver injury was obvious in the AN model.

Osteocytic Sclerostin Expression as an Indicator of Altered Bone Turnover. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15030598. [PMID: 36771305 PMCID: PMC9921466 DOI: 10.3390/nu15030598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is a complex and serious complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), a major global health problem caused by loss of renal function. Currently, the gold standard to accurately diagnose ROD is based on quantitative histomorphometric analysis of trabecular bone. Although this analysis encompasses the evaluation of osteoblast and osteoclast number/activity, tfigurehe interest in osteocytes remains almost nihil. Nevertheless, this cell type is evidenced to perform a key role in bone turnover, particularly through its production of various bone proteins, such as sclerostin. In this study, we aim to investigate, in the context of ROD, to which extent an association exists between bone turnover and the abundance of osteocytes and osteocytic sclerostin expression in both the trabecular and cortical bone compartments. Additionally, the effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on bone sclerostin expression was examined in parathyroidectomized rats. Our results indicate that PTH exerts a direct inhibitory function on sclerostin, which in turn negatively affects bone turnover and mineralization. Moreover, this study emphasizes the functional differences between cortical and trabecular bone, as the number of (sclerostin-positive) osteocytes is dependent on the respective bone compartment. Finally, we evaluated the potential of sclerostin as a marker for CKD and found that the diagnostic performance of circulating sclerostin is limited and that changes in skeletal sclerostin expression occur more rapidly and more pronounced. The inclusion of osteocytic sclerostin expression and cortical bone analysis could be relevant when performing bone histomorphometric analysis for diagnostic purposes and to unravel pathological mechanisms of bone disease.

Assessment of trabecular and cortical parameters using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography, histomorphometry and microCT of iliac crest bone core in hemodialysis patients. Bone Rep 2022; 16:101173. [PMID: 35198659 PMCID: PMC8850668 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2022.101173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2021] [Revised: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 02/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Patients with end-stage renal disease develop changes in bone quality and quantity, which can be assessed using different methods. This study aimed to compare and to correlate bone parameters obtained in vivo using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) with those obtained by bone biopsy using histomorphometry and microcomputed tomography (microCT) analysis of the iliac crest core, and to evaluate if HR-pQCT is helpful in aiding with categorization of those with high turnover. Twenty hemodialysis patients, 13 females (7 postmenopausal), underwent bone biopsy from 2018 to 2020. The mean age was 48.5 ± 10.6 years, and the mean hemodialysis vintage was 15 years. Histomorphometry identified mineralization defects, low turnover, and high turnover in 65%, 45%, and 35% of the patients, respectively. The highest values of trabecular bone volume (BV/TV) were obtained by histomorphometry, while the highest values of cortical thickness (Ct.Th) were obtained by HR-pQCT at the distal tibia. Moderate correlations were found between BV/TV values obtained by microCT of the bone core and HR-pQCT at the distal radius (r = 0.531, p = 0.016) and at the distal tibia (r = 0.536, p = 0.015). BV/TV values obtained from the bone core by histomorphometry and microCT were also significantly correlated (r = 0.475, p = 0.04). Regarding Ct.Th, there was a strong correlation between the radius and tibia HR-pQCT (r = 0.800, p < 0.001), between bone core microCT and the distal radius HR-pQCT (r = 0.610, p < 0.01), as between histomorphometry and microCT (r = 0.899, p < 0.01). In groups classified by bone turnover, patients with high turnover presented lower BV/TV, Tb.N, Tb.Th, and Ct.Th than those with low turnover in peripheral sites using HR-pQCT. By this method, it was possible to identify low turnover from tibia BV/TV > 12,4% plus Tb.Sp ≤ 0.667 mm (AUC 0.810, 95% CI 0.575 to 0.948) and high turnover from total bone mineral density (BMD) ≤ 154.2 mg HA/cm3 (AUC 0.860, 95% CI 0.633 to 0.982, p < 0.001) and cortical BMD ≤ 691.6 mg HA/cm3 (AUC 0.840, 95% CI 0.609 to 0.963, p < 0.001). In conclusion, HR-pQCT had significant correlation with iliac crest bone in BV/TV and Ct.Th, which are known to provide bone strength. This method is quick and non-invasive and may be helpful in categorizing those with high versus low turnover in hemodialysis patients. Bone structure in hemodialysis patients can be assessed using different methods. There was correlation of BV/TV and Ct.Th between histomorphometry and bone core microCT. BV/TV and Ct.Th values obtained by radius HR-pQCT and bone core microCT were correlated. High turnover patients had lower BV/TV, Tb.N, Tb.Th, and Ct.Th by HR-pQCT. HR-pQCT was able to discriminate low and high turnover in hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Posttransplant mineral and bone diseases are causes of fractures, and their association with cardiovascular events is being studied. METHODS We analyzed the evolution of biochemical, histological, and imaging parameters pre- and 1 y post-renal transplantation in 69 patients and correlated mineral and bone findings with coronary calcifications. At inclusion and after 12 mo, clinical data and echocardiographic findings were recorded, and laboratory evaluations, radiography of the pelvis and hands, and bone biopsy were performed. Noncontrast cardiac computed tomography was performed during the second evaluation. RESULTS Serum levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 and sclerostin decreased in all patients, parathyroid hormone levels decreased in 89.8% of patients, bone alkaline phosphatase levels decreased in 68.1% of patients, and alpha-Klotho levels increased in 65.2% of patients. More than half of the patients presented with renal osteodystrophy at both biopsies, but histological findings improved: a significant transition from high to normal or low turnover and no significant differences in volume, mineralization defect, or cortical porosity at the 2 evaluations. Alpha-Klotho, sclerostin, and bone alkaline phosphatase shifts affect bone changes. Neither echocardiographic findings nor vascular calcification scores differed between the 2 points. Both the pretransplant period (dialysis vintage, sclerostin, and low bone volume at baseline) and the maintenance of abnormalities in the posttransplant period (high turnover posttransplant) were the most reliable predictors of the severity of the coronary calcification percentile. CONCLUSIONS Renal transplantation improved bone and mineral abnormalities. The pretransplant period determines the severity of calcification.

Abstract
Bone Biopsy (BB) with histomorphometric analysis still represents the gold standard for the diagnosis and classification of different forms of renal osteodystrophy. Bone biopsy is the only technique able to provide comprehensive information on all bone parameters, measuring static and dynamic parameters of turnover, cortical and trabecular microarchitecture, and mineralization defects. In nephrological practice, bone biopsy yields relevant indications to support therapeutic choices in CKD, heavily impacting the management and prognosis of uremic patients. Unfortunately, the use of bone biopsy has decreased; a lack of expertise in performing and interpreting, perceived procedure invasiveness and pain, and reimbursement issues have all contributed to this decline. Nevertheless, both bone biomarkers and instrumental images cannot be considered reliable surrogates for histological findings, being insufficiently accurate to properly evaluate underlying mineral and bone disorders. This is a multidisciplinary position paper from the Nephrology and Osteoporosis Italian Scientific Societies with the purpose of restating the role of bone biopsy in CKD patient management and of providing strong solutions to allow diffusion of this technique in Italy, but potentially also in other countries. The Italian approach through the optimization and standardization of bone biopsy procedure, the construction of the Italian Hub and Spoke network, and a request for adjustment and national homogenization of reimbursement to the Italian Health Ministry has led the way to implement bone biopsy and to improve CKD patient management and prognosis.
