OSTEOPOROSIS
A systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass and microarchitectural
deterioration of bone tissue leading to enhanced bone fragility and a consequent increase in fracture risk.
CASE
•
A 42 year old woman asks for advice about osteoporosis therapy. A DXA scan done at her request after a screening study at a health fair showed low BMD, confirmed low BMD with a T score of -2.5 at the femoral neck.
Medical History
•
Normal menses.•
Weight stable, BMI 22
•
Mother and maternal grandmother both have severe osteoporosis
•
No renal or hepatic disease.•
No exogenous glucocorticoids
•
Normal PTH, TSH and vitamin D
QUESTIONS
•
DOES SHE HAVE OSTEOPOROSIS?
•
WHAT FURTHER STUDIES SHOULD BE DONE?
•
IS THERAPY APPROPRIATE?
•
WHAT THERAPY?
Osteoporosis Prevalence•
Affects 200 million women worldwide1
_ 1/3 of women aged 60 to 70 -
2/3 of women aged 80 or older
•
Approximately 30% of women over the age of 50 have one or more vertebral fractures2
•
Approximately one in five men over the age of 50 will have an osteoporosis-related fracture in their remaining lifetime1

Diagnosis in Postmenopausal Women
WHO criteria should be used
Normal = T-score -1 or greaterOsteopenia = T-score between -1 and - 2.5Osteoporosis = T-score -2.5 or less
Diagnosis in Premenopausal Women
•
WHO criteria should not apply to healthy pre-menopausal women.
•
Z-scores should be used.•
Osteoporosis may be diagnosed if there is low BMD with risk factors.
•
The diagnosis of osteoporosis should not be made on densitometric
criteria alone.

Rationale for Diagnosis Position in Premenopausal Woman
•
Premenopausal women do not have same relationship between BMD and fracture risk as postmenopausal women, therefore WHO classification does not apply
•
Major risk factors in premenopausal women elevate fracture risk sufficiently so that osteoporosis may be diagnosed if low BMD is also present

“…Calcium has been singled out as a major
public health concern today not only because it
is a critical nutrient for bone but also because of
national surveys that suggest that the average
calcium intake of individuals is far below the
levels recommended for optimal bone health”

Vitamin D Intake (Diet + Supplement)
NHANES III•
According to an NHANES III survey of 3,444 women 51 years and older, over 70% of women 51 to 70 years of age were estimated not to meet adequate intake guidelines for vitamin D based on daily intake from diet and supplements (400 IU).
•
Nearly 90% of women older than 70 years were estimated not to meet guidelines (600 IU).

Calcium absorption1
—When vitamin D status is sufficient, absorption of dietary calcium is approximately 30% to 40%.
—As vitamin D status declines, absorption of dietary calcium declines to about 10% to 15%.
PTH—Low levels of vitamin D lead to increased release
of PTH,2
which increases bone resorption and decreases bone mass.
Sources of Vitamin D•
Sunlight exposure— Major source of vitamin D.1,2
— Vitamin D production is affected by season, duration of exposure, sunscreen use, and skin pigmentation.2
•
Endogenous production—
Skin and kidneys form and process vitamin D4; this may decrease with age.2
•
Dietary intake—
Minor source of vitamin D.2
—
Vitamin D is rare in foods other than fatty fish and fortified food products, such as milk and breakfast cereals.3,4

Defining the Upper Limit of Vitamin D Intake:
There is limited information regarding doses of vitamin D associated with acute toxicity, although intermittent (yearly or twice yearly) single doses of vitamin D as high as 600,000 IU have been given without reports of toxicity.
What is the Optimal Intake of Vitamin D?
Important contribution of Calcium (Osteoporosis Studies)
All studies that formed the basis of
osteoporosis indications for risedronate,
alendronate, ibandronate, teriparatide,
raloxifene and calcitonin required calcium
supplementation in the study design

DXA for Monitoring Therapy
•
Decreases in BMD while on therapy do not always indicate treatment failure.
•
Some who lose BMD the first year, gain during the second year –
“regression to
the mean”.•
Even when BMD declines during therapy, fracture risk may decrease.

Conclusions
•
In premenopausal women, low bone mass alone is not adequate to establish a diagnosis of osteoporosis.
•
Low BMD in premenopausal women may result from low peak bone mass or accelerated bone loss.
•
Premenopausal women with low BMD deserve careful follow up.
Conclusions
•
Bone density testing is appropriate in premenopausal women with history of a fragility fracture or known secondary cause of osteoporosis
•
Adequate calcium and vitamin D intake are fundamental components of osteoporosis therapy.
