Bone health and risk of stress fracture in female endurance athletesDuckham, Rachel January 2011 (has links)
Conversely, AA lost femoral neck BMD over the winter and this was not recovered over the summer, although the increase in width of the femoral neck may have partly compensated BMD loss to maintain strength in bending. The final prospective analysis was conducted in a separate sample of female athletes who were diagnosed with a stress fracture injury. The aim of this analysis was to determine the magnitude and time scale of bone loss following a stress fracture injury and subsequent regain following retaining. A group of 4 stress fracture cases and 3 controls were followed for a period of 6-8 months following a stress fracture injury. BMD and BMC (lumbar spine, femoral neck, and trochanter) and estimations of geometric properties CSA, Z and buckling ratio) were assessed using DXA. The mean difference of bone loss and bone regain was determined by BMD, BMC and geometric parameters from baseline to 6-8 weeks and 6-8 weeks to 6-8 months respectively. No significant bone loss was found in either cases or controls from baseline to 6-8 weeks at any of the bone parameters. A significant difference at the femoral neck was found in the injured leg of the stress fracture cases from 6-8weeks to 6-8months (mean (SE) 1.042(0.102) to 1.070(0.102) g/cm2, p=0.004) with no significant change in the contra-lateral case leg 1.036 (0.102) to 1.054(0.109) g/cm2). No significant bone regain was found in the control subjects (health or injured legs ). Thus athletes do not seem to lose significant BMD during the recovery phase of training when partial weight bearing is required. Subsequent bone regain above the initial baseline value does seem to occur in the injured leg within 8 months following the stress fracture once training is resumed. In conclusion the work within this thesis has not only reinforced previous stress fracture findings, showing that a history of stress fracture is increased in athletes with a history of amenorrhoea, but has identified novel results indicating a lower incidence of stress fracture in female endurance athletes than previously reported. Exercise cognitions have been identified as risk factors for stress fracture history independent of menstrual dysfunction. Furthermore and potentially the most novel finding of this research is the importance for the examination of bone geometric properties in amenorrhoeic athletes. Findings suggest that possible structural adaptations counteract the effects of low BMD and annual losses of BMD during seasonal training in amenorrhoeic endurance athletes. In light of these findings this thesis highlights scope for further longitudinal research in the area of structural adaptation to bone in amenorrhoeic athletes. Keywords: Stress fracture, bone mineral density, bone geometry, endurance athletes, menstrual dysfunction, eating and exercise cognitions.

Comparação das características clínicas, bioquímicas e da análise histomorfométrica de biópsias ósseas de pacientes com doença renal crônica em diálise com e sem fratura / Comparison of clinical, biochemical and histomorphometric analysis of bone biopsies in dialysis patients with and without fracturesSantos, Melissa Fernanda Pinheiro 06 July 2017 (has links)
INTRODUÇÃO: Os distúrbios minerais e ósseos (DMO) da doença renal crônica (DRC) estão associados ao aumento do risco de fratura, estudos relatam cerca de 3% de fraturas neste grupo de pacientes, e as mesmas ocorrem mais precocemente quando comparadas à população geral, ou seja, 16 e 13 anos antes para homens e mulheres, respectivamente. A melhora no tratamento do DMO ainda não impactou na diminuição das fraturas, assim a melhor compreensão da fisiopatologia das mesmas provavelmente contribuiria para novas abordagens terapêuticas. OBJETIVOS: avaliar informes de fraturas, de ossos longos, de um banco de biopsias ósseas de pacientes com DRC em hemodiálise, e comparar, as características clínicas, bioquímicas e os resultados da análise histomorfométrica do osso trabecular e cortical desses pacientes com o de outros sem fraturas, pareados para idade, sexo e tempo de hemodiálise. Avaliamos também, por imunohistoquimica, a expressão de proteínas envolvidas na formação (SOST) e na mineralização óssea (DMP1, MEPE) de ambos os grupos. MÉTODOS: dezessete pacientes com fratura e igual número de controles foram estudados. RESULTADOS: A prevalência de fraturas foi de 5,5 fraturas/1000 pacientes ano a maioria deles tinha menos de 60 anos e tempo em hemodiálise inferior a 10 anos. Quanto a analise dos dados bioquímicos somente os níveis de fósforo sérico foram significativamente mais baixos nos pacientes com fratura comparada aos controles. Os resultados da análise histomorfométrica revelaram que a totalidade dos pacientes com e sem fratura apresentava doença de alta remodelação e nos fraturados detectamos menor volume e espessura trabecular, maior superfície osteóide, menor superfície de reabsorção além de menor superfície mineralizante, taxa de formação e maior tempo de intervalo para mineralização óssea quando comparados aos controles. Não encontramos diferenças na análise da espessura e porosidade cortical entre os dois grupos e a expressão da DMP1 no osso cortical foi menor e da SOST no osso trabecular foi maior nos pacientes fraturados comparados aos controles além de se associarem com parâmetros estruturais, de formação, de reabsorção e de mineralização. CONCLUSÕES: No banco de informes de biópsias ósseas analisado, encontramos alta prevalência de pacientes com fratura. Os pacientes com e sem fratura apresentavam doença de alta remodelação, porém os fraturados apresentavam maior comprometimento da microarquitetura óssea assim como menor formação e maior defeito de mineralização quando comparados aos pacientes sem fratura. A expressão de proteínas ósseas envolvidas na formação e mineralização óssea se correlacionaram com parâmetros envolvidos na remodelação óssea / INTRODUCTION: Mineral and bone disorders (BMD) of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are associated with increased risk of fracture. Studies report about 3% of fractures in this group of patients, and these occur earlier than in the general population, namely 16 and 13 years earlier for men and women, respectively. Improvement in BMD treatment has not yet impacted reduction of fractures, therefore a better understanding of the pathophysiology of fractures would probably contribute to new therapeutic approaches. OBJECTIVES: evaluate report of long bone fractures from a bank of bone biopsies from patients with CKD on hemodialysis, and compare clinical and biochemical characteristics as well as the results of the histomorphometric analysis of trabecular and cortical bone of these patients with that of others without fractures, paired for age, gender, and time on hemodialysis. We also evaluated the expression of proteins involved in formation (SOST) and bone mineralization (DMP1, MEPE) of both groups by immunohistochemistry. METHODS: seventeen patients with fracture and an equal number of controls were studied. RESULTS: The prevalence of fractures was 6%, the majority of the patients were less than 60 years old, and the time on hemodialysis was less than 10 years. Regarding the analysis of the biochemical data, only serum phosphorus levels were significantly lower in patients with fracture compared to controls. Results of the histomorphometric analysis revealed that all the patients with and without fracture had high turnover disease, and in the fractured ones we detected a smaller trabecular volume and thickness, greater osteoid surface, and smaller surface of resorption in addition to smaller mineralizing surface, formation rate and longer time interval for bone mineralization when compared to controls. We did not find differences in the analysis of thickness and cortical porosity between the two groups; the DMP1 expression in the cortical bone was smaller and the SOST in the trabecular bone was higher in the fractured patients compared to that of controls, besides being associated with structural parameters, formation, reabsorption and mineralization. CONCLUSIONS: In the database of analyzed bone biopsies, we found low prevalence of patients with fracture. Patients with and without fracture had high turnover disease, but the fractured ones presented more impaired bone microarchitecture as well as lower formation and greater mineralization defect when compared to the patients without fracture. The expression of bone proteins involved in bone formation and mineralization correlated with parameters involved in bone remodeling
