RESUMO
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by mesenchymal tumors that secrete fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Patients present with progressive bone pain, muscle weakness, and fragility fractures. TIO is characterized by hypophosphatemia, excess renal phosphate excretion, and low/inappropriately normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2 D) levels. Rarity and enigmatic clinical presentation of TIO contribute to limited awareness among the medical community. Accordingly, appropriate diagnostic tests may not be requested, leading to delayed diagnosis and poorer patient outcomes. We have developed a global guidance document to improve the knowledge of TIO in the medical community, enabling the recognition of patients with TIO and appropriate referral. We provide recommendations aiding diagnosis, referral, and treatment, helping promote a global standard of patient management. We reviewed the literature and conducted a three-round Delphi survey of TIO experts. Statements were drafted based on published evidence and expert opinions (≥70% consensus required for final recommendations). Serum phosphate should be measured in patients presenting with chronic muscle pain or weakness, fragility fractures, or bone pain. Physical examination should establish features of myopathy and identify masses that could be causative tumors. Priority laboratory evaluations should include urine/serum phosphate and creatinine to assess renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate and TmP/GFR, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25(OH)2 D, and FGF23. Patients with the clinical/biochemical suspicion of TIO should be referred to a specialist for diagnosis confirmation, and functional imaging should be used to localize causative tumor(s). Recommended treatment is tumor resection or, with unresectable/unidentifiable tumors, phosphate salts plus active vitamin D, or burosumab.

BACKGROUND: Hyperphosphatemia is a risk factor for cardiovascular outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease. In an experimental model, hyperphosphatemia promoted atherosclerosis by activating sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2, which controls cholesterol homeostasis. In the present study, we hypothesized that serum phosphate level is associated with cholesterol metabolism in patients with kidney failure. METHODS: We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study including 492 patients undergoing hemodialysis and 100 healthy controls not on statin or ezetimibe treatment. Serum lathosterol and campesterol levels were measured as a marker of cholesterol synthesis and absorption, respectively. As compared with the control group, the hemodialysis patients had higher median phosphate {5.8 mg/dL [interquartile range (IQR 5.0-6.6) versus 3.3 (3.0-3.6); P < .001], lower lathosterol [1.2 µg/mL (IQR 0.8-1.7) versus 2.6 (1.9-3.4); P < .001] and higher campesterol levels [4.5 µg/mL (IQR 3.6-6.0) versus 4.1 (3.2-5.4); P = .02]. Serum phosphate correlated positively to campesterol in the control group (Spearman's r = 0.21, P = .03) and in hemodialysis patients (Spearman's r = 0.19, P < .001). The positive association between phosphate and campesterol levels in the hemodialysis group remained significant in multivariable-adjusted linear regression analysis. There was no significant association between phosphate and lathosterol in either group. CONCLUSIONS: An independent association was found between phosphate and campesterol levels in patients with kidney failure. This study suggests a novel relationship between phosphate and cholesterol metabolism, both of which could affect cardiovascular outcomes in this population.

Acquired fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23-related hypophosphatemic osteomalacia is characterized clinically by muscle weakness, bone pain, and fractures. Its biochemical features include hypophosphatemia, caused by renal phosphate wasting, and inappropriately normal or low 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D levels. Recently, burosumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting FGF23, was approved for the treatment of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic rickets and osteomalacia. We report the case of a 75-year-old Japanese woman with decompensated liver cirrhosis and hepatic encephalopathy, caused by primary biliary cholangitis, who complained of back pain and limited mobility resulting from multiple vertebral fractures. She was not receiving iron infusion therapy and denied alcohol consumption. The patient exhibited hypophosphatemia with a low tubular maximum reabsorption of phosphate per unit glomerular filtration rate (TmP/GFR) and a high circulating concentration of FGF23. Conventional therapy with alfacalcidol and oral phosphate slightly improved her serum phosphate concentration and back pain, but she experienced a hip fracture, causing her to become wheelchair-dependent. Burosumab was initiated 8 weeks after the hip fracture, which increased her serum phosphate concentration and TmP/GFR. Her mobility gradually improved, such that she could walk without a cane after 16 weeks of treatment. Her lumbar bone mineral density increased after 48 weeks. Hepatic encephalopathy developed once before the initiation of treatment and twice after the initiation of the therapy, but her liver function was preserved. This is the first study to report the efficacy and safety of burosumab treatment for FGF23-related hypophosphatemic osteomalacia with decompensated liver cirrhosis.

The anti-fibroblast growth factor 23 monoclonal antibody burosumab corrects hypophosphatemia in adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) and improves pain, stiffness, physical function, and fatigue. This post hoc subgroup analysis used data from the 24-week placebo-controlled period of a phase 3 study in 134 adults with XLH (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02526160), to assess whether the benefits of burosumab are evident in 14 clinically relevant subgroups defined by baseline demographic and functional criteria, including sex, Brief Pain Inventory-short form (BPI-SF) Average And Worst Pain, region, race, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC®) Stiffness, Physical Function and Pain domains and total score, use of opioid/other pain medication, active fractures/pseudo-fractures, and 6-min walk test distance. There were no statistically significant interactions between any of the subgroups and treatment arm for any endpoint. Higher proportions of subjects achieved mean serum phosphate concentration above the lower limit of normal (the primary endpoint) with burosumab than with placebo in all subgroups. For the key secondary endpoints (WOMAC Stiffness and Physical Function; BPI-SF Worst Pain) individual subgroup categories showed improvements with burosumab relative to placebo. For additional efficacy endpoints, burosumab was favored in some subgroups but differences were not significant and confidence intervals were wide. For some endpoints the treatment effect is small at 24 weeks in all subjects. This subgroup analysis shows that burosumab was largely superior to placebo across endpoints in the 14 clinically relevant subgroup variables at 24 weeks and is likely to benefit all symptomatic adults with active XLH.

Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a key regulator of phosphate metabolism. Circulating FGF23 levels are associated with obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease in the general population, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to determine the associations between serum FGF23 levels and visceral adiposity as well as serum adiponectin levels in 189 adults without diabetes and with normal kidney function who were selected from the MedCity21 health examination registry. The exclusion criteria included diabetes mellitus or impaired kidney function (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <60 mL/min/1.73 m2). Levels of serum FGF23 and total adiponectin, and visceral fat area (VFA) on computed tomography images were measured. Serum FGF23 levels were higher and VFA was greater, whereas serum adiponectin levels were lower in men than in women. Serum FGF23 levels positively correlated with VFA in men; they remained marginally significant after adjusting for age, eGFR, and serum levels of calcium, phosphate, intact parathyroid hormone, and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. Importantly, when serum adiponectin levels were included as a covariate, serum adiponectin levels comprised an independent determinant of serum FGF23 levels in men, whereas VFA did not. In conclusion, lower serum adiponectin, rather than a greater VFA, was associated with higher serum FGF23 levels in non-diabetic men with normal kidney function. These findings suggest that adiponectin plays a role in the relationship between visceral adiposity and FGF23 in men.

Bexarotene-induced central hypothyroidism (CH), for which levothyroxine (LT4) replacement is recommended, has been shown to be caused by pituitary but not hypothalamic disorder experimentally, though the underlying mechanism in humans remains unclear. Here, the pathophysiology of bexarotene-induced CH was examined using a TRH stimulation test in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) patients. In this retrospective longitudinal observational study, serum TSH and free T4 (F-T4) levels were measured in 10 euthyroid patients with CTCL during 24 weeks of bexarotene treatment. TRH stimulation testing was performed following CH diagnosis, with LT4 replacement dosage adjusted to maintain F-T4 at the pre-treatment level. After one week of bexarotene administration, all 10 patients developed CH, based on combined findings of low or low-normal F-T4 with low or normal TSH levels. TSH peak response after a stimulation test at one week was reached at 30 minutes. However, that was <4 µIU/mL in all patients, indicating a blunted though not exaggerated and delayed TSH response. In eight who continued bexarotene for 24 weeks, median LT4 replacement dosage was 125 (range, 75-150) µg/day. TSH level at 30 as well as 15, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after TRH stimulation was significantly correlated with LT4 replacement dosage (ρ = -0.913, p = 0.002), whereas TSH and F-T4 basal levels at one week were not. These results suggest that pituitary hypothyroidism is responsible for bexarotene-induced CH, while TSH levels after TRH stimulation precisely reflect residual pituitary-thyroid function in patients receiving bexarotene.

INTRODUCTION: Etelcalcetide binds to the extracellular domain of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), while cinacalcet binds to the 7-transmembrane domain of the CaSR; however, it is unknown, whether etelcalcetide has similar effects to cinacalcet on parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The PTH-calcium setpoint and maximum and minimum PTH secretion were determined using an 'in vivo setpoint analyses.' The PTH-calcium setpoint was obtained in a mouse model of primary hyperparathyroidism (PC) and wild-type (WT) mice, with PC mice divided into two groups. The setpoint was obtained after 7 days of etelcalcetide (3.0 mg/kg BW/day) or vehicle administration via anosmotic pump. After 7 days of crossover administration, the setpoint was obtained again. Parathyroid glands were obtained after crossover administration, and CaSR expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Etelcalcetide administration significantly decreased the setpoint from 9.03 ± 0.56 mg/dL to 6.80 ± 0.28 mg/dL, which was restored to 8.81 ± 0.38 mg/dL after vehicle administration. In the second group of mice, vehicle administration did not alter the setpoint (8.84 ± 0.69 mg/dL to 8.98 ± 0.63 mg/dL), but subsequent etelcalcetide administration significantly decreased it to 7.10 ± 0.72 mg/dL. There was no significant change in maximum and minimum PTH secretion. Expression levels of parathyroid CaSR were lower in PC mice than in WT mice; however, no significant differences were observed between the two mouse groups. CONCLUSION: Etelcalcetide decreased the PTH-calcium setpoint without changing maximum and minimum PTH secretion in PC mice, suggesting that like cinacalcet, etelcalcetide has calcimimetic potency.

INTRODUCTION: Etelcalcetide (Parsabiv®, AMG 416/ONO-5163) is a novel allosteric modulator for the calcium-sensing receptor approved for hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism of uremia. Etelcalcetide reduced parathyroid hormone levels in hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism of uremia in clinical studies. However, its direct effect on parathyroid hormone secretion in human parathyroid cells remains unknown. This study aimed to determine if etelcalcetide suppresses parathyroid hormone secretion by human parathyroid cells in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We prepared primary cell cultures from human parathyroid tissue and determined calcium-sensing receptor expression levels by immunohistochemistry. Pathyroid tumors were removed from fourteen patients with primary hyperparathyrodism. Parathyroid tissue was dispersed with collagenase, resuspended in culture medium, incubated for 2 h with etelcalcetide and Ca2+, and the medium was then collected. Final etelcalcetide concentrations in the medium were 0.005-50 µmol/L. Levels of human parathyroid hormone in the medium were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: In eight of the fourteen parathyroid cell cultures, extracellular Ca2+ reduced parathyroid hormone levels. In four of the eight parathyroid cell cultures which responded extracellular Ca2+, etelcalcetide reduced hormone secretion with the 50% effective concentrations of 0.57, 20.8, 0.42, and 0.57 µmol/L. Expression levels of the calcium-sensing receptor were significantly lower in primary hyperparathyroidism patient-derived parathyroid tissues compared with controls. CONCLUSION: This is the first report that etelcalcetide directly reduced parathyroid hormone secretion from the primary cultured human parathyroid cells from patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. To verify this conclusion, further studies are needed using secondary hyperparathyroidism patient-derived parathyroid cells.

INTRODUCTION: After the onset of bone metastasis, tumor cells appear to modify surrounding microenvironments for their benefit, and particularly, the levels of circulating fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23 in patients with tumors have been highlighted. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We have attempted to verify if human breast carcinoma MDA-MB-231 cells metastasized in the long bone of nu/nu mice would synthesize FGF23. Serum concentrations of calcium, phosphate (Pi) and FGF23 were measured in control nu/nu mice, bone-metastasized mice, and mice with mammary gland injected with MDA-MB-231 cells mimicking primary mammary tumors. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: MDA-MB-231 cells revealed intense FGF23 reactivity in metastasized lesions, whereas MDA-MB-231 cells cultured in vitro or when injected into the mammary glands (without bone metastasis) showed weak FGF23 immunoreactivity. Although the bone-metastasized MDA-MB-231 cells abundantly synthesized FGF23, osteocytes adjacent to the FGF23-immunopositive tumors, unlike intact osteocytes, showed no FGF23. Despite significantly elevated serum FGF23 levels in bone-metastasized mice, there was no significant decrease in the serum Pi concentration when compared with the intact mice and mice with a mass of MDA-MB-231 cells in mammary glands. The metastasized femora showed increased expression and FGFR1 immunoreactivity in fibroblastic stromal cells, whereas femora of control mice showed no obvious FGFR1 immunoreactivity. Taken together, it seems likely that MDA-MB-231 cells synthesize FGF23 when metastasized to a bone, and thus affect FGFR1-positive stromal cells in the metastasized tumor nest in a paracrine manner.

INTRODUCTION: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is caused by parathyroid adenoma, primary parathyroid hyperplasia, or parathyroid carcinoma. For some patients with PHPT controlling serum calcium levels is critical. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted an open-label, single-arm, 52-week, phase III study in Japanese patients with hypercalcemia due to PHPT to demonstrate efficacy and safety of evocalcet, a new calcimimetic. Patients with intractable PHPT (n = 13), postsurgical recurrence (n = 2), and parathyroid carcinoma (n = 3) were enrolled. Evocalcet administration started at a dose of 2 mg once or twice daily and was titrated to achieve the target serum corrected calcium (cCa) concentration (≤ 10.3 mg/dL) for two consecutive weeks (maximal dose 24 mg/day). RESULTS: Fourteen patients achieved the target (77.8%; 95% confidence interval [CI] 52.4-93.6). The lower limit of 95% CI exceeded the predetermined reference limit (11%), and thus, efficacy was confirmed. Of 18 patients, 12 (66.7%; 95% CI 41.0-86.7) showed decreased serum cCa of ≥ 1.0 mg/dL from the baseline for two consecutive weeks during the titration phase. Sixteen patients entered the maintenance phase, and 15 patients completed the study. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were recorded in 18/18 patients (100%) and drug-related TEAEs in 8/18 (44.4%). The most commonly observed drug-related TEAE was nausea (2/18 patients). No unexpected drug-related TEAEs were observed. All drug-related TEAEs were mild in severity. No patient discontinued the study because of drug-related TEAEs. CONCLUSION: Evocalcet demonstrated long-term effectiveness in reducing serum cCa concentrations and safety without any unexpected drug-related TEAEs in PHPT patients.

INTRODUCTION: Because aging is a predictor of renal insufficiency in the general population, renal function is a concern in postmenopausal patients undergoing treatment for osteoporosis. Although high serum phosphate concentration is a predictor of renal insufficiency, the effect of selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) on renal function and phosphate homeostasis remains to be established. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We administered 20 mg/day bazedoxifene to 48 postmenopausal osteoporotic women who had been taking alfacalcidol for ≥ 6 months, and assessed lumbar spine bone mineral density (LS-BMD), renal function (by calculating estimated glomerular filtration rate using serum cystatin-C levels [eGFRcys] [range 38.0-98.2 mL/min/1.73 m2]), and phosphate homeostasis. RESULTS: LS-BMD was significantly higher 6 months after the initiation of bazedoxifene administration. eGFRcys had increased by 3 months after initiation and was stable until 12 months. Serum phosphate gradually decreased after initiation, reaching statistical significance at 6 months. The changes in serum phosphate were also significant when the maximum tubular reabsorption rate of phosphate was normalized to glomerular filtration rate (TmP/GFR), indicating that bazedoxifene treatment reduces serum phosphate by increasing the urinary excretion of phosphate. The change in eGFRcys after the initiation of bazedoxifene was significantly negatively correlated with the change in serum phosphate, suggesting that a reduction in serum phosphate improves renal function. CONCLUSION: Bazedoxifene improves renal function, possibly by increasing renal phosphate excretion, in postmenopausal osteoporotic women without severe renal insufficiency.

Background We developed a novel high-sensitive assay for plasma xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) activity that is not affected by the original serum uric acid level. However, the association of plasma XOR activity with that level has not been fully examined. Methods This cross-sectional study included 191 subjects (91 males, 100 females) registered in the MedCity21 health examination registry. Plasma XOR activity was determined using our assay for plasma XOR activity with [13C2,15N2] xanthine and liquid chromatography/triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. Serum levels of uric acid and adiponectin, and visceral fat area (VFA) obtained by computed tomography were measured, and insulin resistance was determined based on the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR) index. Results The median values for uric acid and plasma XOR activity were 333 µmol/L and 26.1 pmol/h/mL, respectively. Multivariable linear regression analysis showed a significant and positive association of serum uric acid level (coefficient: 26.503; 95% confidence interval: 2.06, 50.945; p = 0.035) with plasma XOR activity independent of VFA and HOMA-IR, and also age, gender, alcohol drinking habit, systolic blood pressure, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), glycated hemoglobin A1c, triglyceride, and adiponectin levels. The "gender*XOR activity" interaction was not significant (p = 0.91), providing no evidence that gender modifies the relationship between plasma XOR activity and serum uric acid level. Conclusions Plasma XOR activity was found to be positively associated with serum uric acid level independent of other known confounding factors affecting that level, including gender difference, eGFR, adiponectin level, VFA, and HOMA-IR.

Burosumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody to FGF23, is the only approved treatment for X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), a rare genetic disorder characterized by renal phosphate wasting and substantial cumulative musculoskeletal morbidity. During an initial 24-week randomized, controlled trial, 134 adults with XLH received burosumab 1 mg/kg (n = 68) or placebo (n = 66) every 4 weeks. After 24 weeks, all subjects received open-label burosumab until week 48. This report describes the efficacy and safety of burosumab during the open-label treatment period. From weeks 24-48, serum phosphorus concentrations remained normal in 83.8% of participants who received burosumab throughout and were normalized in 89.4% who received burosumab after placebo. By week 48, 63.1% of baseline fractures/pseudofractures healed fully with burosumab, compared with 35.2% with burosumab after placebo. In both groups, burosumab was associated with clinically significant and sustained improvement from baseline to week 48 in scores for patient-reported outcomes of stiffness, pain, physical function, and total distance walked in 6 min. Rates of adverse events were similar for burosumab and placebo. There were no fatal adverse events or treatment-related serious adverse events. Nephrocalcinosis scores did not change from baseline by more than one grade at either week 24 or 48. These data demonstrate that in participants with XLH, continued treatment with burosumab is well tolerated and leads to sustained correction of serum phosphorus levels, continued healing of fractures and pseudofractures, and sustained improvement in key musculoskeletal impairments.

RESUMO
Coexistence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is regarded as a risk for osteoporotic fracture particularly in postmenopausal women, not only because of increased parathyroid hormone level but also uremic sarcopenia. We examined the relationships of cystatin C-based glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcys) and creatinine-based GFR (eGFRcr), as well as their ratio with occurrence of osteoporotic fracture in postmenopausal osteoporotic women. This cross-sectional study included 555 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. eGFRcr and eGFRcys were simultaneously measured, while occurrence of osteoporotic fracture was obtained by a medical chart review. Patients with osteoporotic fractures (n = 211) exhibited significantly lower levels of physical activity, eGFRcr, eGFRcys, and eGFRcys/eGFRcr ratios, while a higher percentage was CKD stage 3 or more, estimated by eGFRcr or eGFRcys (CKDcys), than those without (n = 344). Lower eGFRcys, but not lower eGFRcr, was independently associated with osteoporotic fracture in the entire cohort and that association was retained in CKDcys patients. Of great interest, higher eGFRcr was associated with osteoporotic fracture independent of eGFRcys in CKDcys patients. Furthermore, lower eGFRcys/eGFRcr ratio was independently associated with osteoporotic fracture in both CKDcys patients and the entire cohort. eGFRcys reduction might be associated with osteoporotic fracture in postmenopausal osteoporotic women, indicating the involvement of renal osteopathy in its occurrence. Furthermore, the association of higher, but not lower, eGFRcr with osteoporotic fracture in CKDcys cases might be explained by underestimation of renal dysfunction by eGFRcr resulting from decreased muscle mass and quality in those patients.

The MOVEMENT study was designed to assess the effectiveness of monthly intravenous ibandronate on bone mineral density (BMD) in daily clinical practice in Japanese patients with primary osteoporosis whose lumbar spine BMD did not increase despite oral bisphosphonate therapy. This study was a multicenter, prospective, interventional study (52 sites; August 2015 to March 2018). Patients aged ≥ 50 years with primary osteoporosis, evaluated as low responders to oral bisphosphonate treatment for 1-3 years, continued on their existing oral bisphosphonate or switched to monthly intravenous ibandronate (1 mg) for 12 months. The primary endpoint was change in lumbar spine BMD from baseline to 12 months in the intravenous ibandronate group (IV IBN). A total of 240 and 141 patients were enrolled in the IV IBN and oral bisphosphonate groups (OBP), respectively. At 12 months, a significant increase in mean percent change from baseline in lumbar spine BMD was observed in the IV IBN (2.70%). This change was also significant at 6 months (1.92%). Similarly, the change in total hip BMD showed a significant increase at 12 months (0.78%). In the IV IBN, the responder rate, percentage of patient whose change from baseline of lumbar spine BMD has greater than 0%, for lumbar spine BMD was high at both 6 (72.3%, 141/195 patients) and 12 (78.0%, 145/186 patients) months. No new safety concerns were observed in either treatment group. Treatment with intravenous ibandronate significantly increased lumbar spine BMD without any new safety concerns in Japanese patients with osteoporosis who showed low response to existing oral bisphosphonates.

BACKGROUND: We examined whether inferior thyroid artery peak systolic velocity (ITA-PSV) predicts an increase in levothyroxine (LT4) dosage in pregnant women with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. METHODS: Twenty-two women with Hashimoto's thyroiditis who were planning and later achieved pregnancy or confirmed as pregnant were enrolled in this retrospective longitudinal observational study. ITA-PSV and thyroid volume were measured using ultrasonography. Serum concentrations of free thyroxine (F-T4), free triiodothyronine (F-T3), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) were simultaneously determined. We adjusted LT4 dosage to maintain serum TSH at < 2.5 µIU/mL (1st trimester) and later at < 3 µIU/mL (2nd, 3rd trimester). RESULTS: Eighteen patients (81.8%) required an increase in LT4 dosage during pregnancy, of whom 7 (31.8%) required an increase ≥50 µg. Multivariable regression analysis showed that TSH (ß = 0.507, p = 0.008) and ITA-PSV (ß = - 0.362, p = 0.047), but not thyroid volume, F-T4, or F-T3, were independently associated with increased LT4 dosage. Receiver-operating characteristic analysis for predicting an increase in LT4 ≥ 50 µg/day showed that the area under the curve (0.905) for ITA-PSV with TSH was not significantly increased (p = 0.123) as compared to that (0.743) for TSH alone, whereas integrated discrimination improvement was significantly increased (27.9%, p = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS: In pregnant patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, ITA-PSV was a significant predictor of increase in LT4 dosage independent of TSH level, while ITA-PSV plus TSH showed significantly improved predictability as compared to TSH alone. These results suggest that ITA-PSV reflects residual thyroid function and is useful for evaluating the need for increased thyroid hormone production in pregnant patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia has become a serious disorder in modern society. Chronic kidney disease requiring dialysis and diabetes are some of the disorders that accelerate the onset and progression of sarcopenia. We, therefore, investigated the prevalence of sarcopenia in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) and confirmed the impact of diabetes mellitus (DM) on this population. METHODS: This study included 308 patients whose muscle strength and mass had been evaluated using handgrip strength and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, respectively. Sarcopenia was defined according to the criteria established by the Asian Working Group on Sarcopenia. In addition, this cohort had been followed up for 9 years. RESULTS: The prevalence of sarcopenia was 40% (37% in males and 45% in females) with gender differences being insignificant (p = 0.237). The DM morbidity rate was significantly higher in those with sarcopenia than in those without sarcopenia (41% vs. 27%, p = 0.015). Multivariate regression analyses showed that the presence of DM was an independent contributor to sarcopenia in patients undergoing HD (odds ratio 3.11; 95% confidence interval 1.63-5.93; p < 0.001). During the follow-up of 76 ± 35 months, 100 patients died. Patients with sarcopenia demonstrated significantly higher rates of all-cause mortality than those without sarcopenia (p < 0.001 using the log-rank test). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analyses revealed that the presence of DM was significantly associated with higher all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio: 2.39; 95% confidence interval 1.51-3.81; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of sarcopenia among this cohort of patients undergoing HD was determined to be 40%. Moreover, the presence of DM was an independent contributor to sarcopenia and an independent predictor of all-cause mortality in this population.

It is well established that patients with maintenance hemodialysis increased fracture rates compared with the general population, incident hip fractures are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. To prevent fractures in hemodialysis patients, bone turnover markers are useful as well as measurement of bone mineral density.

Primary hyperparathyroidism(PHPT)is one of the common endocrine disorders, which results clinically in secondary osteoporosis. PHPT also occurs nephrolithiasis, muscle weakness, cardiac and psychiatric abnormalities even in a mild or asymptomatic disease. Parathyroidectomy(PTX)is the only definitive treatment for PHPT. In the case PTX is not choose, these patients may require intervention for management of osteoporosis and/or hypercalcemia.
