Abstract
Orthopedic surgeons treating fractures need to consider comorbidities, including chronic kidney disease (CKD), which affects millions worldwide. CKD patients are at elevated risk of fractures due to osteoporosis, especially in advanced stages. In addition, fractures in CKD patients pose challenges due to impaired bone healing and increased post-fracture complications including surgical site infection and nonunion. In this article, we will discuss factors that must be considered when treating fractures in CKD patients. Perioperative management includes careful adjustment of hemodialysis schedules, selection of anesthetic methods, and addressing bleeding tendencies. Tourniquet usage for fractures in limbs with arteriovenous fistulae should be cautious. Pain medication should be administered carefully, with opioids like hydromorphone preferred over nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Medical management after fractures should address underlying factors and include physical rehabilitation to reduce the risk of subsequent fractures. A comprehensive approach to fracture management in CKD patients can improve outcomes.

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.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease and mineral bone disorders are major contributors to morbidity and mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease and often persist after renal transplantation. Ongoing hormonal imbalances after kidney transplant (KT) are associated with loss of graft function and poor outcomes. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and its co-receptor, α-Klotho, are key factors in the underlying mechanisms that integrate accelerated atherosclerosis, vascular calcification, mineral disorders, and osteodystrophy. On the other hand, kidney donation is also associated with endocrine and metabolic adaptations that include transient increases in circulating FGF-23 and decreases in α-Klotho levels. However, the long-term impact of these alterations and their clinical relevance have not yet been determined. This manuscript aims to review and summarize current data on the role of FGF-23 and α-Klotho in the endocrine response to KT and living kidney donation, and importantly, underscore specific areas of research that may enhance diagnostics and therapeutics in the growing population of KT recipients and kidney donors.

Abstract
Frequently silent until advanced stages, bone fragility associated with chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disease (CKD-MBD) is one of the most devastating complications of CKD. Its pathophysiology includes the reduction of active vitamin D metabolites, phosphate accumulation, decreased intestinal calcium absorption, renal alpha klotho production, and elevated fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels. Altogether, these factors contribute firstly to secondary hyperparathyroidism, and ultimately, to micro- and macrostructural bone changes, which lead to low bone mineral density and an increased risk of fracture. A vitamin D deficiency is common in CKD patients, and low circulating 25(OH)D levels are invariably associated with high serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels as well as with bone mineralization defects, such as osteomalacia in case of severe forms. It is also associated with a variety of non-skeletal diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, multiple sclerosis, cancer, and reduced immunological response. Current international guidelines recommend supplementing CKD patients with nutritional vitamin D as in the general population; however, there is no randomized clinical trial (RCT) evaluating the effect of vitamin D (or vitamin D+calcium) supplementation on the risk of fracture in the setting of CKD. It is also unknown what level of circulating 25(OH)D would be sufficient to prevent bone abnormalities and fractures in these patients. The impact of vitamin D supplementation on other surrogate endpoints, including bone mineral density and bone-related circulating biomarkers (PTH, FGF23, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, sclerostin) has been evaluated in several RTCs; however, the results were not always translated into an improvement in long-term outcomes, such as reduced fracture risk. This review provides a brief and comprehensive update on CKD-related bone fragility and the use of natural vitamin D supplementation in these patients.

Secular trends in hip fracture incidence and subsequent mortality in dialysis patients and the general population in Sweden. Bone 2021; 147:115909.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Declining trends of hip fracture incidence in dialysis patients were reported from USA and Japan while studies from Europe are lacking. We investigated trends in hip fracture incidence and subsequent mortality in Swedish dialysis patients, comparing with the Swedish general population. METHODS We used the population-based Swedish national database of fractures and the Swedish National Renal Registry to retrieve data on hip fractures incidence and subsequent mortality for years 2007-2016. Trends for age-standardized hip fracture incidence rate (ASRhip fracture) and age-standardized 30-day (ASMR30day) and 180-day (ASMR180day) post-hip fracture mortality rate in Swedish general population were evaluated by joinpoint regression analysis. Standardized incidence ratios of hip fracture (SIR) and standardized mortality ratios (SMR) were calculated for Swedish dialysis patients. RESULTS In the general population, ASRhip fracture declined significantly: in women from 2007 and in men from 2009. In dialysis patients, SIR was 3-5 times higher compared to the general population and declined over time in women but not in men. In general population, mortality (ASMR30day and ASMR180day) declined significantly in women and men. In dialysis patients, post-fracture mortality (SMR, mainly for 180-day mortality) remained two-fold higher than in general population with no consistent trend towards improvement. CONCLUSIONS Hip fracture incidence and subsequent mortality fell among women and men in the Swedish general population. In dialysis patients, hip fracture incidence declined in women but not in men while post-fracture mortality did not improve, and the incidence and subsequent mortality remained 3 to 5-fold and 2-fold higher than in the general population.
