RESUMO

Objetivo: En enfermos renales, la enfermedad ósea-metabólica, la inflamación sistémica y la malnutrición exacerban el riesgo de calcificación vascular (CV) y la morbimortalidad. Dada la fuerte asociación entre CV y fracturas por fragilidad, el objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la contribución de los mayores determinantes de CV al deterioro óseo en pacientes en diálisis peritoneal (DP).Métodos: En 31 pacientes no diabéticos en DP (>6 meses), se estudiaron marcadores de alteraciones del metabolismo óseo, daño vascular, inflamación y desnutrición, y, su impacto en el deterioro óseo (osteopenia radiológica y/o antecedentes de fractura por fragilidad).Resultados: En estos pacientes, (20 varones y 11 mujeres; edad=54±15 y 60±11 años respectivamente (p=0,24)), la prevalencia de fracturas por fragilidad fue de 5% en hombres y del 27% en mujeres. El deterioro óseo fue mayor en personas de edad avanzada, sexo femenino, índices de Charlson y Kauppila elevados, menor masa muscular y con expansión de una subpoblación altamente inflamatoria de granulocitos inmaduros de baja densidad (LDGi). Un análisis de regresión logística demostró que el riesgo de deterioro óseo está más influenciado por el sexo femenino que por la edad y que, de los múltiples factores asociados a mayor deterioro óseo estudiados, sólo la expansión de LDGi estima el riesgo de alteraciones óseas en estos pacientes independientemente de su edad y sexo.Conclusión: La expansión de LDGi provee de un biomarcador certero para el diagnóstico de deterioro óseo y para monitorizar estrategias que atenúen su progresión en pacientes en DP de cualquier edad y sexo.

RESUMO

Objetivo: Los parámetros bioquímicos siguen siendo la opción más utilizada para el seguimiento de pacientes con alteraciones metabólicas óseas. El objetivo del estudio fue valorar la asociación de algunos marcadores bioquímicos del metabolismo óseo con aparición y progresión de calcificaciones aórticas. Material y métodos: Se seleccionaron aleatoriamente 624 hombres y mujeres mayores de 50 años que cumplimentaron un cuestionario y a los que se realizaron dos radiografías laterales dorso?lumbares y densitometría ósea. Cuatro años más tarde, en 402 sujetos se repitieron los mismos estudios junto con un estudio bioquímico. Resultados: La edad y la proporción hombres fue superior en los que tuvieron “progresión global” de calcificación aórtica (progresión de las ya existentes más las nuevas). Los niveles séricos de calcio y calcitriol fueron significativamente superiores y los de osteocalcina significativamente inferiores en los que se observó “progresión global” de calcificación aórtica. El análisis multivariante mostró que únicamente la osteocalcina se asoció de forma independiente con “progresión global” de calcificación aórtica, con una disminución del 18% por cada incremento de 1 ng/mL en los niveles de osteocalcina (odds ratio (OR)=0,82; intervalo de confianza del 95% (IC 95%): 0,71-0,92). La categorización de la osteocalcina en terciles mostró que los sujetos del primer tercil (<4,84 ng/mL) se asociaron con mayor proporción de nuevas calcificaciones aórticas: (OR=2,45; IC 95%: 1,03-3,56) respecto al tercer tercil (>6,40 ng/mL). Conclusión: Los niveles séricos de osteocalcina podrían ser un marcador bioquímico para evaluar la aparición y/o a evolución de la calcificación aórtica. No obstante, se necesita determinar con mayor precisión como podría ejercer este efecto protector en el proceso de calcificación vascular (AU)


Objetive: Biochemical parameters continue to be the most widely used option for the follow-up of patients with bone metabolic disorders. The objective of our study was to assess the association of some biochemical markers of bone metabolism with the appearance and progression of aortic calcifications. Material and methods: In this study, 624 men and women older than 50 years were selected at random. The participants completed a questionnaire and underwent two lateral dorsal-lumbar x-rays and bone densitometry. Four years later, the same studies were repeated in 402 subjects along with a biochemical study. Results: Age and the proportion of men were higher in those who had “global progression” of aortic calcification (progression of the existing ones plus new ones). The serum levels of calcium and calcitriol were significantly higher and those of osteocalcin significantly lower in which “global progression” of aortic calcification was observed. Multivariate analysis showed that only osteocalcin was independently associated with “global progression” of aortic calcification, with an 18% decrease for each 1 ng/mL increase in osteocalcin levels (odds ratio (OR)=0, 82; 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.71-0.92). The categorization of osteocalcin into tertiles showed that the subjects of the first tertile (<4.84 ng/mL) were associated with a higher proportion of new aortic calcifications: (OR=2.45; 95% CI: 1.03-3, 56) with respect to the third tertile (>6.40 ng/mL). Conclusion: Serum levels of osteocalcin could be a biochemical marker to evaluate the appearance and/or evolution of aortic calcification. However, it is necessary to determine with greater precision how it could exert this protective effect in the process of vascular calcification. (AU)

RESUMO

OBJETIVOS: Valorar si la fuerza de agarre y la dificultad para realizar actividades cotidianas podrían ser predictores de caídas y fracturas osteoporóticas. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se seleccionaron aleatoriamente 624 hombres y mujeres mayores de 50 años, que fueron seguidos durante 8 años para conocer la incidencia de caídas y fracturas osteoporóticas no vertebrales. Al inicio se midió la fuerza de agarre en manos y se cumplimentó un cuestionario con variables clínicas, factores de riesgo relacionados con la osteoporosis y cuestiones relativas a la dificultad o incapacidad para realizar actividades cotidianas. RESULTADOS: La fuerza de agarre en manos no se asoció con la incidencia de caídas y fracturas. Sin embargo, la imposibilidad o dificultad de "estar sentado más de 1 hora en silla dura", "quitarse los calcetines o las medias" e "inclinarse desde una silla para coger un objeto del suelo" se asoció con caídas: 1,83 (1,16-2,89); 1,85 (1,14-3,00) y 1,68 (1,04-2,70), respectivamente. Del mismo modo, la imposibilidad o dificultad de "llevar durante 10 metros un objeto de 10 kilos" y "levantar una caja con 6 botellas y ponerlas sobre una mesa" se asoció con fractura: 2,82 (1,21-6,59) y 2,54 (1,12-5,81) respectivamente. CONCLUSIONES: No se encontró asociación entre la fuerza de agarre e incidencia de caídas y fracturas osteporóticas, pero sí con dificultad o incapacidad para realizar actividades cotidianas. Las relacionadas con mayor fuerza se asociaron con fractura, mientras que las relacionadas con capacidad funcional se asociaron con caídas. Realizar cuestionarios sencillos podría ayudar a predecir eventos antes de que ocurran


OBJECTIVE: Assess whether grip strength and difficulty in carrying out daily activities could be predictors of falls and osteoporotic fractures. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 624 men and women over 50 years of age were randomly selected and followed for 8 years to determine the incidence of falls and non-vertebral osteoporotic fractures. At the beginning, the grip strength in the hands was measured and a questionnaire was filled out with clinical variables, risk factors related to osteoporosis, and questions related to difficulty or inability to perform daily activities. RESULTS: Grip strength in the hands was not associated with the incidence of falls and fractures. However, the impossibility or difficulty of "sitting for more than 1 hour in a hard chair", "taking off socks or stockings" and "leaning from a chair to pick up an object from the floor" were associated with falls: 1.83 (1.16-2.89); 1.85 (1.14-3.00) and 1.68 (1.04-2.70), respectively. Similarly, the impossibility or difficulty of "carrying a 10-kilogram object for 10 meters" and "lifting a box with 6 bottles and putting them on a table" was associated with fracture: 2.82 (1.21-6.59) and 2.54 (1.12-5.81) respectively. CONCLUSIONS: No association was found between grip strength and incidence of falls and osteoporotic fractures, but it was found with difficulty or inability to perform daily activities. Those related to greater strength were associated with fracture, while those related to functional capacity were associated with falls. Taking simple questionnaires could help predict events before they happen

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Since accelerated atherosclerosis has been reported in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), predictive biomarkers of cardiovascular disease (CVD) are needed. Among non-traditional risk factors, bone mineral density (BMD) has been related to CVD. However, its role in SLE remains controversial. This study aims to analyze the associations of subclinical atherosclerosis with traditional and non-traditional CV risk factors. METHODS AND RESULTS: In a cross-sectional study, atherosclerosis burden was compared between 112 female SLE patients and 31 controls. Plaque number and carotid intima-media wall thickness (cIMT) were assessed by ultrasonography. In a retrospective study, BMD determinations obtained 5-years before the ultrasonography assessment were analyzed in a subgroup of 62 patients. Plaque frequency was increased in SLE, even in patients without CV events or carotid wall thickening. cIMT was increased in patients with CVD, positively correlated with body mass index (BMI). Interestingly, a paradoxical effect of BMI on carotid parameters was observed. Whereas underweight patients (BMI < 20) showed increased prevalence of carotid plaques with low cIMT, those with BMI > 30 showed higher cIMT and plaque burden. Overweight patients (25 < BMI<30) exhibited both elevated cIMT and plaque number. BMI was an independent predictor of BMD. In our retrospective study, patients with either clinical or subclinical CVD exhibited lower BMD levels than their CV-free counterparts. A low lumbar spine BMD independently predicted CVD development after adjusting for confounders. CONCLUSION: SLE was associated with a higher subclinical atherosclerosis burden, a bimodal effect being observed for BMI. Decreased BMD can be a CV risk biomarker in SLE.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this paper is to analyze the relationship of anti-protein ribosomal P (RibP) antibodies with circulating levels of IFNα, TNFα, IFNγ, IL-17 and IL-10 in SLE. Disease activity and other systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) features were also analyzed. METHODS: Anti-RibP and other SLE-related antinuclear antibodies (ANA) were determined by fluoro-enzyme immunoassay in the sera of 107 SLE patients. Circulating cytokines were quantified by flow cytometry (IFNα, IL-10 and IL-17) or ELISA (TNFα and IFNγ). RESULTS: Anti-RibP-positive patients (14.9%) displayed significantly higher serum levels of IFNα (p = 0.023) and IL-10 (p = 0.016) than their negative counterparts. This cytokine upregulation was independent of the presence of other ANA even though, in our patient cohort, anti-dsDNA was found to be associated with anti-RibP (OR, CI 95%: 6.03, 1.32-27.93, p = 0.021) and to correlate with IL-10 levels (r = 0.204, p = 0.036). In fact, patients positive for anti-RibP but negative for anti-dsDNA exhibited the highest amounts of both IL-10 and IFN-α that were not related to disease activity since these patients showed lower SLEDAI than patients also positive for anti-dsDNA (p = 0.018). Anti-RibP positivity was also associated with early diagnosis, hypocomplementemia and leukopenia. CONCLUSIONS: Presence of anti-RibP was found to be related to increased serum IFNα and IL-10 levels independently of both antibody status and disease activity.
