Abstract
PURPOSE Orthopedic surgeons can assess bone status intraoperatively and recommend skeletal health evaluation for patients with poor bone quality. Intraoperative physician assessment (IPA) at the time of total knee arthroplasty correlates with preoperative DXA-measured bone mineral density (BMD). This study evaluated IPA during total hip arthroplasty (THA) as a quantitative measure of bone status based on tactile assessment. METHODS This retrospective analysis identified 60 patients (64 hips) undergoing primary THA who had IPA recorded in the operative report and a DXA within 2 years before surgery. Intraoperatively, two surgeons assessed bone quality on a 5-point scale (1 = excellent; 5 = poor). IPA score was compared to DXA BMD and T-score, 3D Shaper measurements, WHO classification, FRAX scores, radiographic Dorr classification, and cortical index. RESULTS There was a strong correlation between the IPA score and lowest T-score, WHO classification, and FRAX major and hip fracture scores (r = ± 0.485-0.622, all p < 0.001). There was a moderate correlation between IPA score and total hip BMD and 3D Shaper measurements, including trabecular volumetric BMD, cortical surface BMD, and cortical thickness (r = ± 0.326-0.386, all p < 0.01). All patients with below-average IPA scores had osteopenia or osteoporosis by DXA. CONCLUSION IPA during THA is a simple, valuable tool for quantifying bone status based on tactile feedback. This information can be used to identify patients with poor bone quality that may benefit from skeletal status evaluation and treatment and provide intraoperative guidance for implant selection. Orthopedic surgeons can assess bone health at the time of surgery. Intraoperative physician assessment (IPA) is a bone quality score based on surgeons' tactile assessment that correlates strongly with the lowest T-score, WHO classification, and FRAX fracture risk. IPA can guide surgical decision-making and future bone health treatment.

Abstract
Background The longitudinal changes in hip-bone microstructures and estimated bone strength in dialysis patients, and the impact of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) biomarkers on these changes, remain insufficiently explored. Methods This retrospective study examined changes in cortical and trabecular bone compartments and estimated bone-strength indices, obtained by using 3D-SHAPER software, in the hip regions of 276 dialysis patients over up to 2.5 years. We used multivariate mixed models to investigate the associations between time-dependent CKD-MBD biomarkers and bone health metrics. Results There was a significant decrease in areal bone mineral density (aBMD), integral volumetric BMD (vBMD), trabecular vBMD, cortical thickness and cortical surface BMD (sBMD). Similar deteriorations were found in estimated bone-strength indices [cross-sectional area (CSA), cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), section modulus (SM) and buckling ratio]. Neither serum calcium nor phosphate levels were significantly associated with changes in three-dimensional parameters or estimated bone-strength indices. In contrast, serum alkaline phosphatase levels showed a significant inverse correlation with aBMD and CSA. The intact-parathyroid hormone (i-PTH) was significantly inversely correlated with aBMD, integral vBMD, trabecular vBMD, cortical thickness, cortical vBMD, CSA, CSMI and SM. When applying the KDIGO criteria as a sensitivity analysis, the higher PTH group had significant negative associations with aBMD, integral vBMD, cortical vBMD, cortical thickness and cortical sBMD. Notably, the lower PTH group showed a positive significant correlation with integral vBMD and trabecular vBMD. Conclusions Elevated PTH, not low PTH, was associated with deterioration of hip-bone microstructures. Better management of PTH levels may play a crucial role in the hip-bone microstructure in dialysis patients.

Abstract
With the increased life expectancy of people with cystic fibrosis (CF), clinical attention has focused on prevention and treatment of non-pulmonary comorbidities. CF-related bone disease (CFBD) is a common complication and leads to increased fracture rates. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the recommended and gold standard technique to identify and monitor bone health. However, DXA has limitations because of its two-dimensional nature. Complementary tools to DXA are available, such as trabecular bone score (TBS) and vertebral fracture assessment (VFA). Quantitative computed tomography (QCT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and quantitative ultrasound (QUS) may also be useful.

Abstract
Trends toward more favorable improvement of the cortical bone parameters by once-weekly (56.5 μg once a week) and twice-weekly teriparatide (28.2 μg twice a week), and that of the trabecular bone parameters by once-daily (1/D) teriparatide (20 μg/day once a day) were shown. PURPOSE To examine the effects of differences in the amount of teriparatide (TPTD) per administration and its dosing frequency on the bone structure in the proximal femur by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-based 3D-modeling (3D-SHAPER software). METHODS This was a multicenter retrospective study. Patients aged 50 years or older with primary osteoporosis who continuously received once-/twice-weekly (1・2/W, n = 60) or 1/D TPTD (n = 14) administration for at least one year were included in the study. Measurement regions included the femoral neck (FN), trochanter (TR), femoral shaft (FS), and total proximal hip (TH). Concurrently, the bone mineral density (BMD) and Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) were measured. RESULTS The cross-sectional area, cross-sectional moment of inertia, and section modulus in the FS were significantly improved in the 1・2/W TPTD group, as compared to the 1/D TPTD group. However, significant improvement of the cortical thickness and buckling ratio in the FN was observed in the 1/D TPTD group, as compared to the 1・2/W TPTD group. Trabecular BMD values in the FS and TH were significantly increased in the 1/D TPTD group, as compared to the 1・2/W TPTD group, while the cortical BMD values in the TR, FS, and TH were significantly increased in the 1・2/W TPTD group, as compared to the 1/D TPTD group. CONCLUSION Trends toward more favorable improvement of the cortical bone by 1・2/W TPTD and that of the trabecular bones by 1/D TPTD were observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although it is generally believed that the femoral neck fracture is related to the femoral neck geometric parameters (FNGPs), the association between the risk of osteoporotic fracture of the femoral neck and FNGPs in native Chinese women is still unclear. METHODS A total of 374 female patients (mean age 70.2 ± 9.32 years) with osteoporotic fracture of the femoral neck, and 374 non-fracture control groups were completely matched with the case group according to the age ratio of 1:1. Using DXA bone densitometer to measured eight FNGPs: the outer diameter (OD), cross-sectional area (CSA), cortical thickness (CT), endocortical diameter (ED), buckling ratio (BR), section modulus (SM), cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), and compressive strength index (CSI) at the narrowest point of the femoral neck. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the average values of OD (2.9%), ED (4.5%), and BR (26.1%) in the patient group significantly increased (p = 0.015 to < 0.001), while CSA (‒15.3%), CT (‒18.2%), SM (‒10.3%), CSMI (‒6.4%), and CSI (‒10.8%) significantly decreased (all p < 0.001). The prevalence of osteoporosis in the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total hip was, respectively, 82%, 81%, and 65% in fracture patients. Cox proportional hazard model analysis showed that in the age adjusted model, the fracture hazard ratio (HR) of CSA, CT, BR, SM, and CSI significantly increased (HRs = 1.60‒8.33; 95% CI = 1.08‒16.6; all p < 0.001). In the model adjusted for age and femoral neck BMD, HRs of CT (HRs = 3.90‒8.03; 95% CI = 2.45‒15.1; all p < 0.001) and BR (HRs = 1.62‒2.60; 95% CI = 1.20‒5.44; all p < 0.001) were still significantly increased. CONCLUSION These results suggest that the majority of osteoporotic fractures of the femoral neck of native Chinese women occur in patients with osteoporosis. CT thinning or BR increase of FNGPs may be independent predictors of fragility fracture of femoral neck in native Chinese women unrelated to BMD.

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.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the bone microstructure to determine whether curative surgery of primary hyperparathyroidism produces changes in bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular bone score (TBS), and three-dimensional (3D) dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) parameters and whether these changes are comparable. METHODS We retrospectively studied 85 patients (60 women and 25 men, 60.4 ± 12.5 years) diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism and undergoing parathyroidectomy. Mean percent changes in BMD (lumbar spine [LS], femoral neck [FN], total hip [TH], and 1/3 radius), TBS and 3D-DXA parameters (trabecular volumetric BMD (vBMD), cortical vBMD, integral vBMD, cortical surface density (sBMD), and cortical thickness at TH) after surgery (12, 24, and/or 36 months) were calculated and compared, and we sought the determinants of these changes. RESULTS After parathyroidectomy, BMD presented statistically significant mean increases in LS, FN, and TH during the first 3 years after surgery (P < .001), accompanied by an improvement in all 3D-DXA parameters, but there were no significant changes in 1/3 radius BMD or TBS. Cortical sBMD, trabecular vBMD, and integral vBMD reached mean increases of similar magnitude to those of FN and TH BMD. Age and preoperative serum levels of parathyroid hormone and carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen were significantly associated with percent changes after surgery. CONCLUSION We found a benefit of parathyroidectomy for bone, with significant percent increases in LS, FN, and TH BMD up to the third year after surgery, and a qualitative benefit for the hip in both its trabecular and cortical compartments and bone strength.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces severe losses of trabecular and cortical volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), which cannot be discriminated with conventional dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) analysis. The objectives were to: (i) determine the effects of SCI on areal BMD (aBMD) and vBMD determined by advanced 3D-DXA-based methods at various femoral regions and (ii) model the profiles of 3D-DXA-derived parameters with the time since injury. Eighty adult males with SCI and 25 age-matched able-bodied (AB) controls were enrolled in this study. Trabecular and cortical vBMD, cortical thickness and derived strength parameters were assessed by 3D-SHAPER® software at various femoral subregions. Individuals with SCI had significantly lower integral vBMD, trabecular vBMD, cortical vBMD, cortical thickness and derived bone strength parameters (p < 0.001 for all) in total proximal femur compared with AB controls. These alterations were approximately to the same degree for all three femoral subregions, and the difference between the two groups tended to be greater for cortical vBMD than trabecular vBMD. There were minor differences according to the lesion level (paraplegics vs tetraplegics) for all 3D-DXA-derived parameters. For total proximal femur, the decreasing bone parameters tended to reach a new steady state after 5.1 years for integral vBMD, 7.4 years for trabecular vBMD and 9.2 years for cortical vBMD following SCI. At proximal femur, lower vBMD (integral, cortical and trabecular) and cortical thickness resulted in low estimated bone strength in individuals with SCI. It remains to be demonstrated whether these new parameters are more closely associated with fragility fracture than aBMD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of long-term denosumab therapy and of denosumab discontinuation on the cortical bone of the hip regions in dialysis patients has not been studied. METHODS This retrospective study investigated the cortical and trabecular compartments and estimated strength indices of the hip region, obtained using 3D-SHAPER software, after a maximum of 5 years of denosumab therapy in 124 dialysis patients. A Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to identify the differences in each parameter before and after denosumab initiation. Similarly, we investigated the changes in these parameters after denosumab discontinuation in 11 dialysis patients. RESULTS Integral and trabecular volumetric bone mineral densities (BMD) were significantly lower at the start of denosumab therapy than those in 1 year before denosumab initiation. After starting denosumab, areal BMD (median change +7.7% [interquartile range (IQR), +4.6 to +10.6]), cortical volumetric BMD (median change +3.4% [IQR, +1.0 to +4.7]), cortical surface BMD (median change +7.1% [IQR, +3.4 to +9.4]), and cortical thickness (median change +3.2% [IQR, +1.8 to +4.9]) showed a significantly higher trend for 3.5 years, which then stabilized at a higher value compared with baseline. A similar trend in the trabecular volumetric BMD (median change +9.8% [IQR, +3.8 to +15.7]) was observed over 2.5 years, with a higher value maintained thereafter. The whole area of the hip region improved after denosumab therapy. Similar trajectories were also found in the estimated strength indices. Conversely, at 1 year after denosumab discontinuation, these 3D parameters and estimated strength indices tended to largely worsen. The lateral aspect of the greater trochanter was the most pronounced location showing volumetric BMD loss. CONCLUSIONS The BMD of both cortical and trabecular components in the hip region was significantly higher after starting denosumab therapy. However, these measurements exhibited a trend of declining substantially after the discontinuation of denosumab.

Abaloparatide Effects on Cortical Volumetric BMD and Estimated Strength Indices of Hip Subregions by 3D-DXA in Women With Postmenopausal Osteoporosis. J Clin Densitom 2022; 25:392-400. [PMID: 35033435 DOI: 10.1016/j.jocd.2021.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 11/09/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
In ACTIVE, abaloparatide increased areal BMD (aBMD) of the hip and femoral neck vs teriparatide and placebo in women with osteoporosis. Previously, 3D-processing of dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans of a subgroup of ACTIVE subjects showed similar increases in trabecular volumetric BMD (Tb.vBMD) and greater increases in cortical vBMD (Ct.vBMD) of the total hip with abaloparatide vs teriparatide. The current analyses from this subgroup describe 2D- and 3D-DXA data for hip subregions. Randomly selected subjects from ACTIVE (n = 250/treatment group) who received 18 mo of placebo, abaloparatide 80 µg, or open-label teriparatide 20 µg by daily subcutaneous injection underwent hip DXA at baseline, and mo 6 and 18 of treatment. Areal BMD of the femoral neck, trochanter, and femoral shaft was determined using standard 2D-DXA and 3D-SHAPER software to retrospectively evaluate changes from baseline in volumetric parameters of these 3 hip subregions, including trabecular and cortical segmentation. Changes in biomechanical parameters cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), section modulus (Z), and buckling ratio were also evaluated. Femoral neck, trochanter, and shaft aBMD increased in the abaloparatide and teriparatide groups at mo 6 and 18 vs placebo, with greater increases for abaloparatide vs teriparatide at the femoral neck at mo 6 and the shaft at mo 6 and 18. All 3 subregions showed similar significant increases in Tb.vBMD with abaloparatide and teriparatide vs placebo, whereas Ct.vBMD of all 3 subregions showed greater increases after 18 mo of abaloparatide vs teriparatide. Biomechanical parameters improved in all subregions with abaloparatide and teriparatide vs placebo, with greater improvements in CSMI and Z of the femoral neck and lower shaft after 6 and 18 mo of abaloparatide vs teriparatide. Differential femoral neck and shaft Ct.vBMD responses may explain the greater increases in CSMI and Z of those subregions with abaloparatide vs teriparatide.

Abstract
Previous subgroup analyses from the ACTIVE trial in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis (NCT01343004) using three‐dimensional (3D)‐processing of dual X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans indicated greater increases in total hip cortical volumetric bone mineral density (Ct.vBMD) and estimated indices of hip strength following 18 months of abaloparatide (ABL) versus placebo or teriparatide. The current post hoc analyses describe hip 3D‐DXA data for ACTIVExtend (NCT01657162), in which 18 months of ABL followed by 24 months of alendronate (ABL/ALN) increased hip and spine areal BMD (aBMD) and reduced fracture risk versus placebo (PBO) followed by ALN (PBO/ALN). In an ACTIVExtend subgroup (ABL/ALN, n = 204; PBO/ALN, n = 202), hip DXA scans retrospectively underwent 3D modeling via 3D‐Shaper software. Changes from baseline in cortical and trabecular compartments were calculated for total hip and hip subregions (femoral neck, trochanter, and shaft). Estimated strength indices comprising cross‐sectional moment of inertia, section modulus, and buckling ratio were calculated for each hip subregion. Correlations between bone turnover marker levels at the time of alendronate initiation and subsequent BMD gains with alendronate were also investigated within each group. Total hip trabecular and cortical 3D‐DXA parameters increased from baseline in both groups (all p < 0.001), with greater average increases for ABL/ALN versus PBO/ALN (trabecular vBMD: 10.87% versus 4.3%; cortical thickness: 2.32% versus 1.14%; Ct.vBMD: 3.41% versus 1.86%; cortical surface BMD: 5.82% versus 3.0%; all p < 0.001). Strength indices in the ABL/ALN group improved in all subregions versus baseline (all p < 0.0001) and versus PBO/ALN (all p < 0.02). In the ABL/ALN group, collagen type I N‐terminal propeptide (P1NP) levels at the time of alendronate initiation correlated with subsequent percent changes in all 3D‐DXA parameters with 24 months of alendronate therapy. In conclusion, sequential ABL/ALN or PBO/ALN treatment improves trabecular and cortical 3D‐DXA parameters at the hip, as well as strength indices of hip subregions, with greater increases with ABL/ALN versus PBO/ALN. © 2022 Radius Health, Inc.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Statistical models of shape and appearance have increased their popularity since the 1990s and are today highly prevalent in the field of medical image analysis. In this article, we review the recent literature about how statistical models have been applied in the context of osteoporosis and fracture risk estimation. RECENT FINDINGS Recent developments have increased their ability to accurately segment bones, as well as to perform 3D reconstruction and classify bone anatomies, all features of high interest in the field of osteoporosis and fragility fractures diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. An increasing number of studies used statistical models to estimate fracture risk in retrospective case-control cohorts, which is a promising step towards future clinical application. All the reviewed application areas made considerable steps forward in the past 5-6 years. Heterogeneities in validation hinder a thorough comparison between the different methods and represent one of the future challenges to be addressed to reach clinical implementation.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Areal BMD (aBMD) from DXA is not a sufficiently accurate predictor of fracture. Novel volumetric BMD derived from 3D modeling of the hip from DXA images significantly improved the predictive ability for hip fracture relative to aBMD at the femoral neck, but not aBMD at the total hip. INTRODUCTION To clarify whether volumetric and geometric indices derived from novel three-dimensional (3D) modeling of the hip using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometric (DXA) images improve hip fracture prediction relative to areal bone mineral density (aBMD). METHODS We examined 1331 women who had completed the baseline survey and at least one follow-up survey over 20 years (age 40-79 years at baseline). Each survey included aBMD measurement at the hip by DXA. Volumetric and geometric indices of the hip at baseline and the 10-year follow-up were estimated from DXA images using a 3D modeling algorithm. Incident hip fractures during the 20-year follow-up period were identified through self-report. Cox proportional hazards regression models allowing for repeated measurements of predictors and outcomes were constructed, and their predictive ability for hip fracture was evaluated using areas under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) and net reclassification improvement (NRI) over aBMD at the femoral neck (FN) and total hip (TH) as references. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 19.8 years, 68 incident hip fractures were identified (2.22/1000 person-years). A significantly larger AUC of trabecular volumetric BMD (vBMD) at the total hip (AUC = 0.741), femoral neck (AUC = 0.748), and intertrochanter (AUC = 0.738) and significant NRI (0.177, 0.149, and 0.195, respectively) were observed compared with FN-aBMD (AUC = 0.701), but not TH-aBMD. CONCLUSIONS vBMD obtained from 3D modeling using routinely obtained hip DXA images significantly improved hip fracture risk prediction over conventional FN-aBMD, but not TH-aBMD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Predominance of bone loss in cortical sites with relative preservation of trabecular bone, even in postmenopausal women, has been described in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). The aim of this study was to evaluate bone microarchitectural differences using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), trabecular bone score (TBS), and DXA-based 3-dimensional (3D) modeling (3D-DXA) between postmenopausal women diagnosed with PHPT (PM-PHPT) and healthy postmenopausal controls. METHODS This retrospective study included 44 women with PM-PHPT (9 of whom had fractures) and 48 healthy women matched by age, body mass index, and years since menopause treated at Hospital Universitario Fundación Jiménez Díaz between 2008 and 2017. The bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine (LS), femoral neck, total hip (TH), and 1/3 radius was assessed using DXA, and trabecular volumetric BMD (vBMD), cortical vBMD, integral vBMD, cortical thickness, and cortical surface BMD at TH were assessed using a 3D-DXA software and TBS at LS. RESULTS The mean adjusted BMD values at LS, the femoral neck, and TH; TBS at LS; and TH 3D-DXA parameters (trabecular vBMD, integral vBMD, cortical thickness, and cortical surface BMD) were significantly reduced in women with PM-PHPT compared with those in the controls. However, differences in mean cortical vBMD were not statistically significant (P = .078). There were no significant differences in mean BMD, TBS, or the 3D-DXA parameters between patients with fractures and those without fractures. The 25-hydroxyvitamin D level appeared to be associated with TBS but not with DXA and 3D-DXA measurements. CONCLUSION PM-PHPT has significant involvement of the trabecular and cortical compartments of the bone, as determined by DXA, TBS, and 3D-DXA.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This 6-month pilot study in osteoporotic postmenopausal women evaluated cyclic TPD/RLX compared to daily subcutaneous TPD with the concept of optimizing bone formation. Compared to daily subcutaneous TPD, cyclic therapy showed comparable increase in spine BMD and favorable effects on total proximal femur BMD and cortical thickness. PURPOSE There is no cure for osteoporosis; better medications or different approaches with current agents are needed. We hypothesized that monthly cycles of teriparatide (TPD) followed by raloxifene (RLX) might promote ongoing bone formation. Additionally, as TPD might initially adversely affect hip BMD, such effects may be mitigated by a cyclic approach. Therefore, this 6-month pilot study evaluated the effect of cyclic TPD/RLX compared to daily subcutaneous TPD on bone markers, BMD, trabecular bone score (TBS), and hip parameters assessed by 3D modeling. METHODS Postmenopausal osteoporotic women (n=26) were randomized to open-label TPD 20 daily or alternating monthly cycles of TPD followed by monthly RLX 60 mg daily. BMD was measured at the lumbar spine (LS), femur, and radius by DXA. To further assess LS BMD, QCT and opportunistic CT (L1 Hounsfield units [HU]) were performed. LS TBS and hip cortical and trabecular parameters were assessed using DXA. Baseline group comparisons were performed by unpaired T-test with change over time evaluated by repeated measures ANOVA. RESULTS Participant mean age, BMI, and lowest T-score were 67.0 years, 26.0 kg/m2, and -2.7; no between-group differences in serum chemistries, 25(OH)D, or BMD were observed. LS-BMD increased (p<0.001) with TPD or TPD/RLX as measured by DXA (4.8%/5.2%), QCT (13%/9.4%), or HU (15.6%/10.2%) with no between-group difference. TPD/RLX produced beneficial between-group differences in total proximal femur BMD (1.5%, p<0.05) and cortical thickness (1.6%, p<0.05). CONCLUSION Compared with daily TPD, cyclic TPD/RLX comparably increased spine BMD and might have favorable effects on proximal femur BMD and cortical thickness.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients had a higher risk of developing low bone mineral density (BMD) or osteoporosis. RA patients on classic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (c-DMARD) therapy showed significantly lower BMD than controls, while no significant differences in most parameters were found between RA patients receiving biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (b-DMARDs) and controls. The 3D analysis allowed us to find changes in the trabecular and cortical compartments. INTRODUCTION To evaluate cortical and trabecular bone involvement of the hip in RA patients by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and 3D analysis. The secondary end-point was to evaluate bone involvement in patients treated with classic (c-DMARD) or biological (b-DMARD) disease-modifying antirheumatic drug therapies and the effect of the duration of the disease and corticosteroid therapy on 3D parameters. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 105 RA patients and 100 subjects as a control group (CG) matched by age, sex, and BMI was carried out. BMD was measured by DXA of the bilateral femoral neck (FN) and total hip (TH). The 3D analyses including trabecular and cortical BMD were performed on hip scans with the 3D-Shaper software. RESULTS FN and TH BMD and trabecular and cortical vBMD were significantly lower in RA patients. The c-DMARD (n = 75) group showed significantly lower trabecular and cortical vBMD than the CG. Despite the lower values, the b-DMARD group (n = 30) showed no significant differences in most parameters compared with the CG. The trabecular and cortical 3D parameters were significantly lower in the group with an RA disease duration of 1 to 5 years than in the CG, and the trabecular vBMD was significantly lower in the group with a duration of corticosteroid therapy of 1 to 5 years than in the CG, while no significant differences were found by standard DXA in the same period. CONCLUSIONS RA patients had a higher risk of developing low BMD or osteoporosis than controls. RA patients receiving c-DMARD therapy showed significantly lower BMD than controls, while no significant differences in most parameters were found between RA patients receiving b-DMARDs and controls. 3D-DXA allowed us to find changes in trabecular and cortical bone compartments in RA patients.

Abstract
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily affects the axial joints. Altered bone metabolism associated with chronic inflammation leads to both new bone formation in the spine and increased bone loss. It is known that patients with axSpA have a high prevalence of osteoporosis and fractures. However, there is no consensus on which imaging modality is the most appropriate for diagnosing osteoporosis in axSpA. Bone mineral density measurement using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the primary diagnostic method for osteoporosis, but it has notable limitations in patients with axSpA. This method may lead to the overestimation of bone density in patients with axSpA because they often exhibit abnormal calcification of spinal ligaments or syndesmophytes. Therefore, the method may not provide adequate information about bone microarchitecture. These limitations result in the underdiagnosis of osteoporosis. Recently, new imaging techniques, such as high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography, and trabecular bone score have been introduced for the evaluation of osteoporosis risk in patients with axSpA. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge regarding imaging techniques for diagnosing osteoporosis in patients with axSpA.

Abstract
Bone mineral density using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the gold standard for the assessment of bone and an important predictor of fracture risk. However, most fragility fractures occur in people without densitometric osteoporosis, especially in endocrinological diseases. Fracture risk estimation tools such as FRAX have improved diagnostic sensitivity but do not include additional skeletal features. Bone microarchitecture research represents an improvement in the treatment of these patients. In this document members of the Mineral and Bone Metabolism Working Group of the Spanish Society of Endocrinology and Nutrition review new advances in dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and other complex techniques for the study of bone microarchitecture as well as the available data on type 2 diabetes and parathyroid pathology.

[PMID: 31494745 DOI: 10.1007/s11657-019-0645-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2019] [Accepted: 08/16/2019] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
UNLABELLED We analyzed volumetric bone mineral density, by 3D analysis, in 76 people with Down syndrome and 76 controls. People with Down syndrome, particularly men, have a lower hip volumetric bone mineral density than the general population. Besides, volumetric bone mineral density declines more rapidly in Down syndrome. INTRODUCTION People with Down syndrome (DS) have a lower areal bone mineral density (aBMD) estimated by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). However, they have smaller-sized bones, which could influence the measurements. Therefore, our objective was to determine volumetric BMD in these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included 76 outpatients with DS and 76 control healthy volunteers matched for age and sex distribution. Clinical data were obtained with a standardized interview and physical exam, including age, sex, height, weight, and body mass index (BMI). aBMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray at the femoral neck (FN) and total hip (TH). The 3D-SHAPER® software (version 2.8, Galgo Medical, Barcelona, Spain) was used to derive 3D analysis from participants' hip DXA scans. RESULTS DS femurs had a similar 3D geometry, compared with the femurs of controls. However, 3D analysis showed that participants with DS had smaller cortical thickness (1.84 mm ± 0.17 vs. 2.02 ± 0.20 mm; p < 0.0001), cortical vBMD (777 ± 49 mg/cm3 vs. 809 ± 43 mg/cm3; p < 0.0001), and cortical sBMD (143 ± 19 mg/cm2 vs. 164 ± 22 mg/cm2; p < 0.0001). After adjustment for age and BMI, all 3D measurements remained lower in DS than in controls. These differences were more marked in men than in women. vBMD decreased with age in controls and DS, but the decline was greater in DS for all 3D parameters. CONCLUSION People with DS, particularly men, have a lower hip vBMD than the general population. Besides, vBMD declines more rapidly in DS.

Osteoporos Int 2018; 29:2323-2333. [PMID: 29974136 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-018-4624-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2018] [Accepted: 06/27/2018] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED Effects of osteoporosis drugs on proximal femur cortical and trabecular bone were studied using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-based 3D modeling method. Changes observed in this head-to-head study were consistent with those obtained using computed tomography in the literature. INTRODUCTION The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of osteoporosis drugs on cortical and trabecular bone at the proximal femur using DXA-based 3D modeling. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 155 patients stratified by treatments: naive of treatment (NAIVE), alendronate (AL), denosumab (DMAB), and teriparatide (TPTD). DXA scans were performed at baseline and after treatment, and areal bone mineral density at spine and femur were measured. A software algorithm (3D-SHAPER) was used to derive 3D models from hip DXA scans and compute: trabecular and cortical volumetric BMD (vBMD), cortical thickness (Cth), and cortical surface BMD (cortical sBMD). Changes from baseline were normalized at 24 months and evaluated in terms or percentage. RESULTS After 24 months, a non-significant decrease was observed for trabecular vBMD, Cortical sBMD, Cth, and cortical vBMD (- 2.3, - 0.8, - 0.3, and - 0.5%) in the NAIVE group. Under AL and DMAB, significant increases were observed in trabecular vBMD (3.8 and 7.3%), cortical vBMD (1.4 and 2.0%), and cortical sBMD (1.5 and 3.6%). An increase in Cth was observed in patients under DMAB (1.8%). Under TPTD, a significant increase in Trabecular vBMD was observed (5.9%) associated with a non-significant increase of Cth (+ 1%) concomitant with a decrease in cortical vBMD (- 1.1%). CONCLUSION Results obtained in this head-to-head study are consistent with those obtained using computed tomography in the literature. DXA-based modeling techniques could complement standard DXA examination to monitor treatment effects on trabecular and cortical compartments.

The use of bone mineral density measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and peripheral quantitative computed microtomography in chronic kidney disease. J Nephrol 2017; 30:635-643. [PMID: 28900872 DOI: 10.1007/s40620-017-0433-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2017] [Accepted: 08/14/2017] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a risk factor for fractures. The current evaluation of fracture risk is based upon the combination of various clinical factors and quantitative imaging of bone. X-ray-based tools were developed to evaluate bone status and predict fracture risk. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is available worldwide. Longitudinal studies showed that low areal Bone Mineral Density (BMD) measured by DXA predicts fractures in the CKD population as it does in non uremic populations, with good specificity and moderate sensitivity. Peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) and high resolution pQCT are research tools which measure volumetric BMD at the tibia and radius. They are able to discriminate between the cortical and trabecular envelopes which are differentially affected by renal osteodystrophy. In CKD, a rapid thinning and increased porosity at the cortex is observed which is associated with increased the risk for fracture.
