    Notizen: Abstract The absence of specific criteria for the definition of vertebral fracture has major implications for assessing the apparent prevalence and incidence of vertebral deformity. Also, little is known of the effect of using different criteria for new vertebral fractures in clinical studies. We therefore developed radiological criteria for vertebral fracture in women for assessing both the prevalence and the incidence of vertebral osteoporosis in population and in prospective studies and compared these with several other published methods. Normal ranges for vertebral shape were obtained from radiographs in 100 women aged 45–50 years. These included ranges for the ratios of anterior/posterior, central/posterior and posterior/predicted posterior vertebral heights from T4 to L5. The predicted posterior height was calculated from adjacent vertebrae. In contrast to other methods, our definition of fracture required the fulfilment of two criteria at each vertebral site, and was associated with a lower apparent prevalence of fracture in the control women due to a lower false positive rate. The prevalence and incidence of vertebral deformity using different criteria were then compared in a series of women with skeletal metastases from breast cancer in whom radiographs were obtained 6 months apart. The prevalence of vertebral deformity and the specificity for deformity varied markedly with differing criteria. Using a cut-off of 3 standard deviations the prevalence of vertebral deformity in the women with breast cancer was 46%. Using other methods, the prevalences of deformity ranged from 33% to 74%. Over a 6-month interval 25% of patients with breast cancer sustained 61 deformities using our method, of which only 8% resulted from errors in reproducibility. The number of patients sustaining new deformities was increased twofold when assessed by other methods (45%–53%), but errors of reproducibility may have accounted for 21% of the new deformities. The magnitude and distribution of these errors have important implications for the apparent therapeutic efficacy of agents in clinical trials of osteoporosis. The rapid semi-automated technique for assessing vertebral deformities on lateral spine radiographs that we have developed has a high specificity, and reduces the impact of errors of reproducibility on estimates of prevalence and incidence. The method should prove a value in assessing vertebral deformity both in population studies and in prospective clinical trials.

    Notizen: Abstract A number of recent studies have suggested that non-invasive measures of bone turnover are associated with bone loss at the forearm in postmenopausal women. Whether bone turnover markers are predictive of bone loss from the clinically important sites of lumbar spine and femoral neck remain unclear, and was the aim of this 4-year prospective study. One hundred and forty-one normal, postmenopausal women (mean age 52.0±3.3 years, mean menopause duration 20.4±5.7 months) were recruited for the study in 1988. Fasting early morning samples of blood and urine were collected at the baseline visit and stored at −20 °C prior to analysis. Serum was assayed for osteocalcin, oestradiol, oestrone, oestrone sulphate, testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin, dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate and total alkaline phosphatase. Urine was assayed for calcium, hydroxyproline, oestrone glucuronide and the collagen cross-links pyridinoline and deoxypyridinoline using high-performance liquid chromatography. Bone density was measured at the lumbar spine and femoral neck using dual photon absorptiometry at time 0, 12, 24 and 48 months. The mean annual percentage change in bone density (SE) was −1.41% (0.18) at the lumbar spine and −0.86% (0.22) at the femoral neck. There was no evidence of bimodality or a fast loser subgroup as the rates of change were normally distributed. Both simple and multiple stepwise regression analyses revealed no significant correlation between the rates of change in bone density with any biochemical marker, either individually or in combination, despite the study having sufficient power (80%) to detect a correlation of 0.5 between any biochemical marker levels and bone loss. We conclude that single measurements of these markers of bone turnover and endogenous sex hormones appear unlikely to be clinically useful in predicting early postmenopausal bone loss from either the spine or the hip.

    Do current regimes of hormone replacement therapy protect against subsequent fractures? (1992)

    Notizen: Abstract It is now accepted that unopposed oestrogen therapy reduces osteoporotic fractures by about 50%. Although current regimes with added progestogens are thought to act similarly to unopposed oestrogens, no study has yet demonstrated an effect on fractures with the former. Using a retrospective cohort design we studied fracture rates in women attending a menopause clinic for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and compared them with women derived from the general population. Data were analysed from 1075 women exposed to HRT and 1741 non-exposed postmenopausal women. In all 226 fractures were reported between 1977 and 1986, the commonest site being the distal radius, occurring in 28 of the HRT women and in 37 of the non-exposed women. The incidence density rate for fracture of the distal radius is 3.5/1000 woman-years (wy) in non-exposed women. This was similar to the rate in the HRT womenprior to HRT use, the rate falling by 30% after exposure from 3.2 to 2.2/1000 wy. The protective effect on osteoporotic fractures increased progressively with duration of use. After 5 years of use the relative risk fell to 0.5 (95% confidence interval, 0.2–1.2) for all osteoporotic fractures and for the distal radius to 0.18 (95% confidence interval, 0.05–1.3). No similar changes were seen for non-osteoporotic fractures. There were 6 (0.6/1000 wy) reported fractures of the hip in the non-exposed group compared with none in the HRT group (when 1.7 were expected based on non-exposed rates) (p=0.15). Although based on observational data, this study suggests that modern HRT regimes are effective in preventing distal radius fractures and potentially other osteoporotic fractures.

    Notizen: Abstract. To measure the physiological changes in bone in response to strenuous exercise we performed a prospective study of male army recruits over 10 weeks of basic training. Measurements performed at the start and completion of training consisted of ultrasound (US) measurements of the heel: velocity of sound (VOS in m/seconds) and broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA in dB/MHz) and bone turnover markers; osteocalcin (OC), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP). Forty subjects were recruited for the study and 26 completed training. Over the 10-week study period there was a significant 1.7% fall in mean VOS [mean paired difference (mpd) 27.2 m/second, SEM 9.5 (95% CI 7.5–46.8) P= 0.009] and a nonsignificant 3.4% increase in BUA (P= 0.159). There were significant falls in markers of bone formation OC [11.6%, mpd 0.11 μg/liter (95% CI 0.07–0.14) P 〈 0.001] and BALP [13.3%, mpd 3.49 U/liter (CI 0.80–6.18) P= 0.013] and a nonsignificant 9.5% fall in TRAP a marker of bone resorption. The 10 recruits subsequently injured had a significantly lower VOS on entry [mean difference 24.2 m/seconds (95% CI 4.6–43.7) P= 0.017] and nonsignificantly raised BUA and baseline levels of all bone markers. The ultrasound changes may be accounted for by increase in trabecular separation and a fall in trabecular connectivity due to microfracture. The decrease in bone markers implies a fall in bone turnover.

    Endogenous sex steroid levels in women with generalised osteoarthritis (1991)

    Notizen: Summary Epidemiologic and clinical observations have suggested a relationship between generalised osteoarthritis (GOA) and hormonal and menopausal factors in women. We explored the hypothesis that postmenopausal women with GOA have altered sex hormone status compared with control women. We studied 112 women (mean age 64) with GOA. Controls were 151 women (mean age 54) from the general population without clinical evidence of hand or knee OA. All women were postmenopausal. Serum was assayed by RIA for testosterone, oestradiol, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), and dyhydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS). Because of the differences in mean ages, the results were compared according to equal age groups divided on the basis of tertiles. SHBG was lower in the GOA group, reaching significance in the middle group 53–61 years (58.0 vs 67.9nmol/l p〈0.05). Testosterone was slightly higher in GOA women aged under 53. No consistent differences were seen in the older age group or for the other sex steroids. These preliminary data suggest that middle-aged women with GOA have lower circulating SHBG levels. This implies that higher circulating free oestrogens and androgens are present suggesting a role in the aetiopathogenesis of GOA.
