Low body mass not vitamin D receptor polymorphisms predict osteoporosis in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is a recognized complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Aim To investigate the role of environmental factors and vitamin D receptor (VDR) variants on the prevalence of osteoporosis. METHODS DEXA scans and case note review were performed on 440 IBD patients from 1997 to 2006. All the IBD patients and 240 healthy controls were genotyped for VDR variants Taq-1 a...
متن کاملVitamin D and osteoporosis in chronic kidney disease
Osteoporotic fractures are common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Morbidity and mortality are higher in CKD patients with a fracture than in the general population. The assessment of bone mineral density for fracture prediction may be useful at all CKD stages. It should be considered when this influences treatment decisions. Vitamin D deficiency is common in patients with CKD, pa...
متن کاملVitamin K2 in bone metabolism and osteoporosis.
This article covers in vitro, in vivo, and human data on the positive effect of vitamin K2 on osteoporosis. Data is available on vitamin K2 for osteoporosis caused by a number of conditions, including postmenopausal osteoporosis, Parkinson's disease, biliary cirrhosis, stroke, and drug-induced osteoporosis. The activity of vitamin K2 involves both an increase in the bone-building process and a ...
متن کاملUpdate in osteoporosis and metabolic bone disorders.
Considerable progress has been made in the development and testing of agents to treat osteoporosis. Most impressive are reports on new antiresorptive agents--both bisphosphonates (ibandronate and zoledronic acid) and monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) (denosumab) directed against receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB-ligand, a key molecule in the control of commitment and activation of osteocla...
متن کاملRelation Between Osteoporosis and Vitamin D Levels and Disease Activity in Psoriatic Arthritis
Objective: This study investigated the relation between osteoporosis and vitamin D levels and the disease activity in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Materials and methods: In this study, 58 patients with PsA and 58 healthy controls were included. Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements of patients and controls were performed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Complete blood count...
