This document summarizes information presented at the 2008 ASBMR conference on new and emerging osteoporosis treatments. It discusses several drug classes and mechanisms of action, including SERMs, bisphosphonates, denosumab, cathepsin K inhibitors, calcilytics, sclerostin antibodies, PTH analogs, and strontium. It also summarizes clinical trial results for lasofoxifene, zoledronic acid after hip fracture, and the OPTAMISE study comparing teriparatide with prior bisphosphonate use. Odanacatib, a cathepsin K inhibitor, showed increases in bone mineral density in a phase II trial with once weekly dosing and no increased risk
Spatial and temporal gene expression in growth plate and articular cartilage is regulated through complex signaling pathways.
1) In the growth plate, chondrocytes in the resting, proliferative, and hypertrophic zones express different genes due to intrinsic and extrinsic spatial regulation involving BMP and PTHrP signaling gradients.
2) Temporal regulation causes growth plate proliferation and elongation to slow with age, associated with decreased IGF signaling. Prior growth inhibition can delay this senescence.
3) Articular and growth plate cartilage differ in progenitor cell populations and gene expression patterns that correlate inversely between zones.
1. Adult stem cells isolated from fat (h-ASC) have shown promising results in treating various diseases and improving health. They have been tested for over 9 years in canine clinics with remarkable results and early human trials show benefits for conditions like heart and lung disease.
2. h-ASC are abundant, inexpensive, and simple to produce autologously via liposuction. They may provide hope for currently untreatable diseases and have anti-aging properties. NASA is studying their potential for treating astronaut health issues in space.
3. However, legal and regulatory issues regarding stem cells and their classification have limited clinical availability in the US despite their autologous nature and positive results in other countries. Further research
PRP ICL 16 - Case Presentation Isakos 2013Smith & Nephew
1) Cell therapy using platelet rich plasma (PRP), stem cells, and tissue engineering shows promise for healing cartilage and tendon injuries. PRP provides a scaffold and growth factors to support stem cell healing.
2) A case study describes a professional tennis player with knee cartilage damage who returned to play after drilling and PRP treatment.
3) Evidence suggests PRP may be effective for mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis, though more research is still needed to confirm results.
This document summarizes the mechanisms of action, efficacy, safety, and administration of various anti-osteoporosis medications. It finds that antiresorptive drugs like bisphosphonates decrease bone resorption while teriparatide and abaloparatide increase bone formation. Clinical trials demonstrate these drugs reduce fractures of the spine, non-spine, and hip. Safety issues include rare cases of osteonecrosis of the jaw and atypical fractures with long-term bisphosphonate use. Treatment strategies after 5 years may depend on fracture history and bone mineral density during drug holidays.

The document discusses mortality risk after fractures. It summarizes several studies that find the risk of mortality is significantly increased after osteoporotic fractures, especially hip fractures. The mortality increase is seen primarily in the first few months or years after fracture. The causes of excess post-fracture mortality include infections, cardiac disease, and other comorbidities. Several factors influence mortality risk, including pre-fracture health status, the presence of other fractures or dysmobility conditions, and use of bisphosphonate treatment after fracture.
This document discusses treatment failure in a 72-year-old patient with a new fracture after three years of bisphosphonate therapy. It considers whether the patient should continue or switch treatments. It examines definitions of treatment failure including new fractures occurring after a certain duration of therapy, loss of bone mineral density greater than measurement error, and lack of effect on bone turnover markers. Factors like fracture type, treatment duration, compliance, and persistence are relevant to determining when switch to a new treatment may be appropriate.
This document summarizes guidelines for treating osteoporosis in patients over 50 from a lecture given in Rome, Italy in 2015. It discusses a 5-step plan for fracture prevention: 1) case finding for those at high risk, 2) risk evaluation using tools like DXA scans and clinical factors, 3) differential diagnosis to identify secondary causes, 4) medical therapy options like calcium/vitamin D supplementation, bisphosphonates, and RANK ligand inhibitors, and 5) follow up. It provides details on evaluating fracture risk, identifying secondary osteoporosis, recommended supplementation and drug therapies, and monitoring treatment effectiveness and safety.

This document discusses the Wnt signaling system and its role in osteoporosis and other diseases. It provides an overview of the key components of the Wnt signaling pathway, including Frizzled receptors, LRP5/6 coreceptors, beta-catenin, and sclerostin. Mutations affecting these components can lead to high or low bone mass. The document also discusses how modulating the Wnt pathway may help develop new drugs for osteoporosis and reviews studies on Wnt's role in heart disease, cancer, and other conditions.
This document discusses osteoporosis and bisphosphonate drug treatment. It provides definitions of osteoporosis, describes how it occurs due to increased bone resorption, and lists its risk factors. Diagnosis involves measuring bone mineral density and assessing fracture risk. Bisphosphonates like alendronate and risedronate are effective treatments but adherence is low. This can increase fracture risk and costs. The document also discusses medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws, its risk factors, classification system, and the use of serum CTX levels to help prevent this rare complication of bisphosphonate therapy.

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and deterioration of bone structure, leading to an increased risk of fractures. It occurs when bone resorption exceeds bone formation due to increased bone turnover. Bisphosphonates are commonly used to treat osteoporosis and have been shown to reduce fracture risk by 50%, but issues with low diagnostic rates and non-adherence exist. A potential rare side effect of long-term bisphosphonate use is osteonecrosis of the jaws, especially among cancer patients receiving intravenous bisphosphonates. Serum CTX levels and taking a drug holiday may help assess risk and prevent osteonecrosis when dental work is needed. Strontium has also been studied as

Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disease characterized by reduced bone mass and deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and increased fracture risk. Current therapies for osteoporosis include bisphosphonates, denosumab, teriparatide, and abaloparatide. Emerging therapies target various pathways like inhibiting bone resorption through RANKL inhibition, cathepsin K inhibition, or stimulating bone formation through antagonizing proteins like sclerostin, Dkk-1, or activating the Wnt signaling pathway. These emerging therapies hold promise to provide greater gains in bone mass and reconstruction of damaged bone compared to current therapies.
This study aimed to validate an osteocyte-specific growth hormone receptor (GHR) knockout mouse model generated using the Cre/loxP system with Cre recombinase driven by the dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP1) promoter. The researchers found that while the DMP1-derived Cre mediated GHR knockout specifically in osteocytes as intended, GHR gene recombination was also detected in muscle tissue. They concluded that the DMP1-GHRKO mouse model is valid for studying the role of GHR in osteocytes, but the bone phenotype needs to be characterized with the knowledge that the gene recombination also occurred in muscle.
This document presents the case of a 72-year-old woman who presented with confusion and back pain. Initial workup revealed anemia, thrombocytopenia, and evidence of bleeding in multiple organs. Testing found elevated globulins and antibodies against platelet and HLA antigens, leading to a diagnosis of immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) refractory to platelet transfusions. Further analysis identified specific antibodies against the patient's husband's HLA antigens from previous pregnancies, explaining her refractoriness to platelet transfusions.
The document discusses osteoporosis prevention and management. It describes how gynecologists can help achieve peak bone mass during adolescence and adulthood, prevent bone loss during peri-menopause through screening and treatment if needed, and manage age-related osteoporosis. Key roles include promoting physical activity and nutrition, addressing drug-related bone loss, and treating with exercise, calcium/vitamin D supplementation, and medications like bisphosphonates or hormones if screening shows low bone mineral density.

1. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with a significantly higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. CVD is the leading cause of death in CKD patients.
2. Lipid abnormalities are common in CKD and contribute to increased CVD risk. Statins are generally safe and effective for lowering lipid levels in CKD, and may help slow CKD progression as well as reduce proteinuria.
3. Other lipid lowering agents like fibrates and omega-3 fatty acids may benefit CKD patients, especially those with high triglyceride levels, but require monitoring for side effects. New drugs continue to be studied to provide more comprehensive cardioprotection for those with CKD.

1) DXA scanning is a reliable and low-radiation method to measure bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine, hip, and wrist to diagnose osteoporosis.
2) DXA can also detect vertebral fractures (VFA) and measure whole body composition, abdominal fat, and aortic calcification.
3) Interpretation of DXA results requires attention to potential variability between devices, accurate placement of regions of interest, and use of appropriate reference data since BMD can be under or overestimated in certain patients.
This document summarizes osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) associated with antiresorptive agents. It defines ONJ and stages its severity. It discusses the pathogenesis of ONJ and risk factors like underlying disease, treatment duration, and dental procedures. Cancer patients on intravenous bisphosphonates have the highest ONJ risk of 1-8% due to higher drug doses and worse oral/general health. Management involves conservative measures like mouthwashes for early stages and surgery with antibiotics for later stages. Discontinuing antiresorptives may help healing but risks fractures. Teriparatide may help healing in some cases but its use in cancer is uncertain. More research is needed on preventing and treating established ON
This systematic review analyzed 895 cases of tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) from case reports. TIO is caused by tumors that produce excess fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), which causes hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia. The review found that TIO mostly affects adults aged 40-60 years old, with long diagnostic delays of several years on average. The tumors were located variably but most commonly in the lower limbs or head and neck region. Higher FGF23 levels correlated with larger tumor size. Patients experienced significant bone fragility and fracture rates as high as 60% due to long-term hypophosphatemia. Early tumor detection and removal are important to improve outcomes for
This document discusses real-world evidence on denosumab for osteoporosis treatment and fracture prevention. It summarizes several studies, including one that found denosumab reduced fracture risk by 38% compared to placebo in over 25,000 postmenopausal women. Another study showed good long-term persistence with denosumab therapy in over 800 patients. Additional studies observed that zoledronic acid can prevent bone loss following denosumab discontinuation, and bisphosphonate treatment after denosumab provides protection against new vertebral fractures.
IWO Meeting 16 November 2022 - ASBMR young talent: Silvia Storoni (Amsterdam): Prevalence and Hospital Admissions in Patients With Osteogenesis Imperfecta in The Netherlands: A Nationwide Registry Study
The document appears to be a presentation on highlights from the ASBMR 2021 conference in San Diego. It discusses several topics that were covered at the conference, including fracture risk assessment, the effects of various osteoporosis treatments on bone mineral density, safety issues like osteonecrosis of the jaw and atypical femoral fractures, the role of vitamin D, and applications of artificial intelligence. The entire document is copyrighted by Prof. Dr. Joop van den Bergh.
This document discusses guidelines for medication to prevent fractures in patients using glucocorticoids. It notes that glucocorticoids significantly increase the risk of vertebral and non-vertebral fractures. While effective anti-osteoporosis drugs are available, many glucocorticoid-treated patients remain untreated. The document reviews new guidelines that simplify treatment criteria to improve implementation and outlines recommendations for when to start bone-sparing medications based on patient factors and glucocorticoid dose and duration. The goal is to optimize fracture prevention in glucocorticoid-treated patients.
This document discusses what actions should be taken when a vertebral fracture is discovered incidentally. It notes that vertebral fractures are very common fractures, especially in older individuals, and are often asymptomatic. Having a vertebral fracture significantly increases one's risk for future fractures both in the short and long term. If a vertebral fracture is found incidentally, such as on a CT scan, further investigation is warranted including assessing bone mineral density and checking for underlying bone diseases. Treatment options should also be considered, especially if the individual has low bone density in addition to the vertebral fracture, as this combination confers the highest risk. New automated detection algorithms aim to help identify vertebral fractures on scans to ensure appropriate follow up for individuals.
This document summarizes a cost-effectiveness model of Fracture Liaison Services (FLS) care in the Netherlands. The model found that FLS care would be highly cost-effective, with a cost of €9,076 per quality-adjusted life year gained. Total 5-year costs with FLS would be only 1.7% higher than current costs but would prevent fractures and improve health outcomes. The model can help decision-makers prioritize secondary fracture prevention and allow local payers and FLS to predict costs and benefits of implementation.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.

Figure. Disease and Therapy Mediated by the Calcium-Sensing Receptor. The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) is represented by the seven-transmembrane-spanning G protein–coupled receptors on the surface of the parathyroid cell. Under normal circumstances, increases in the serum calcium level lead to a suppression of parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion, resulting in a return to a normal serum calcium level (left). Conversely, reductions in the serum calcium level lead to activation of the CaSR, an increase in PTH secretion, and a resultant increase in the serum calcium level (right). Diseases caused by the activation of the CaSR (bottom left) include autosomal dominant hypoparathyroidism and autoimmune hypocalcemia. Calcimimetic drugs that activate the CaSR are useful in reducing pathologic elevations in PTH. Diseases that are due to the genetic or autoimmune inactivation of the CaSR (bottom right) include familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia and autoimmune hypercalcemia. The potential use of CaSR-blocking drugs (calcilytics) for osteoporosis is also suggested.
Key Points: Prior RIS or ALN patients were on therapy for at least 2 years before discontinuation upon enrollment (generally no longer than 2 weeks) before receiving daily TPTD for 1 year Patients were stratified into 6-month duration of prior bisphosphonate therapy upon enrollment (ie, 24-30 mo, 31-36 mo, etc) Background:

Recently, the two members of a gene family (SOST, encoding sclerostin, and WISE) are added to this list of extracellular wnt antagonists. As shown in Fig. 2C and discussed below, they are capable of binding to LRP5/6 and in this way modulating wnt signaling [20–23].
