Riskläkemedel för vitamin D-brist : Handläggning av patienter i Kalmar län.Lönnbom, Ulrika January 2014 (has links)
Bakgrund: Det finns läkemedel som ger ökad risk för vitamin D-brist. En kartläggningsstudie av hur patientgrupper med olika riskläkemedel hanteras i Landstinget i Kalmar län har inte gjorts tidigare. En sådan studie är önskvärd, för att få en nulägesanalys och öka medvetenheten bland hälso-och sjukvårdspersonal om hur läkemedel påverkar D-vitaminstatus. Syfte: Syftet var att undersöka omfattningen av ordinerade riskläkemedel hos samtliga patienter, samt hos patientgruppen ≥75år och hur dessa handläggs avseende ordination av supplementering (samtidig behandling med läkemedel innehållande vitamin D3 / kalcium och vitamin D3,), provtagning och analysresultat avseende kalcidiol i serum. Metod: Riskläkemedel för vitamin D-brist identifierades. Inklusionskriterier för studien var patienter med de fördefinierade riskläkemedlen med ordinationer under 2012 och/eller 2013. Populationen som ingick i studien var patienter i Landstinget i Kalmar län. Data hämtades från patientdatasystemet Cambio Cosmic. Utifrån dessa data analyserades förekomst av supplementering, provtagning för S-25(OH)D kalcidiol och analyssvar. Materialet strukturerades efter respektive läkemedel avseende kön och ålder (≥75 år.) Resultat: 9118 individer ordinerades något av riskläkemedelen orlistat, sevelamer, kolestyramin, kolestipol, efavirenz, prednison, prednisolon, fenytoin, fenobarbital eller karbamazepin. 31% av patienterna som ordinerats riskläkemedel var ≥75 år. Totalt behandlades 22% med supplementationspreparat av de som ordinerats riskläkemedel. I åldersgruppen ≥75 år behandlades 43% med supplement. 61% av de supplementerade patienterna var ≥75 år. Totalt provtogs enbart 4,1% avseende kalcidiol av de som ordinerats riskläkemedel. Av dessa hade 37% av de provtagna en bristnivå av S-25(OH)D (≤50 nmol/L) vid första provtillfället. 57% av de som visade brist supplementerades. Endast 8,3% av de som hade en brist följdes upp med ytterligare en eller flera provtagningar. Av patienterna ≥75 år provtogs 4,1% av patienterna i åldersgruppen. Detta innebär att 31% av de som provtogs var ≥75år. 39% led brist. Av de patienter ≥75 år som hade led brist supplementerades 65% av individerna. Konklusion: Det finns förbättringsutrymme för implementering av kunskap kring riskläkemedel i Landstinget i Kalmar län. / Introduction: Some drugs increase the risk for vitamin D deficiency. To date, no survey has been performed in Kalmar County about how patients medicated with risk pharmaceuticals are handled. Such a survey would be desirable in order to increase knowledge among healthcare workers about how substances interfere with vitamin D status. Aim: The aim was to examine the extent to which risk pharmaceuticals are prescribed among all patients and among patients aged ≥75, and to investigate how these patients are treated with respect to supplementation (drugs containing vitamin D3 / Calcuim and vitamin D3), blood sampling and analysis of serum calcidiol levels. Method: Drugs interfering with vitamin D were identified. Inclusion criteria for the survey were patients that had been prescribed the pre-defined risk pharmaceuticals during 2012 and/ or 2013. The surveyed population was residents in Kalmar County. Data were collected from the patient database Cambio Cosmic. From these data analyzes were made about the occurrence of: supplementation, sampling of S-25(OH)D calcidiol and test results. The collected data were arranged by substance, gender and age (elderly aged ≥75). Results: 9118 patients were prescribed at least one of the risk pharmaceuticals; orlistat, sevelamer, cholestyramine, colestipol, efavirenz, prednisol, prednison, phenytoin, phenobarbital or carbamazepine. 31% of these were aged ≥75. Overall, 22% of the patients were prescribed supplements. Out of these, 61% were elderly. Among the patients that had been prescribed risk pharmaceuticals a minority, 4,1% of the patients were sampled for calcidiol. 37% of these had deficiency in S-25(OH)D (≤50 nmol/L). 8.3% of patients with a vitamin D deficiency were sampled more than once. Out of the patients with deficiency 57% were treated with supplements. Out of the elderly patients prescribed risk pharmaceuticals, 4.1% of the patients were tested for calcidiol. This means that 31% of the tested patients were aged ≥75 and 39% of these had a deficiency. Out of the elderly patients with deficiency, 65% were treated with supplements. Conclusion: In Kalmar County, much can be done in order to better implement the existing knowledge about drugs that increase the risk for vitamin D deficiency. / Betydelsen av bra D-vitaminstatus för äldres hälsa – Hur stor är förekomsten av D-vitaminbrist hos äldre i Kalmar län och hur påverkar läkemedel D-vitaminstatus

The Role of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 in Phosphate HomeostasisLarsson, Tobias Erik Martin January 2004 (has links)
<p>The regulation of serum phosphate (Pi) concentrations is a complex process and our current models are far from complete. Due to major advancements in biotechnology and the development of more powerful research tools, recent advances in the field of genetics has led to the identification of several candidates for the long sought-after phosphatonin(s), or Pi regulating hormones. One of these candidates is fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and this thesis is based upon studies of the role of FGF-23 in Pi homeostasis. We demonstrate that FGF-23 is a secreted protein which is highly expressed in tumors giving rise to oncogenic hypophosphatemic osteomalacia (OOM). Furthermore, we have developed a two-site enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection of circulating FGF-23 and established that FGF-23 is present in the circulation of healthy individuals. Also, FGF-23 serum levels are elevated in patients with disturbances in Pi homeostasis such as OOM, X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) and chronic kidney disease and are likely to play an important role in the pathogenesis of these disorders. A transgenic mouse model that express human FGF-23 under the control of the α1(I) collagen promoter exhibit similar clinical and biochemical characteristics as do patients with OOM, XLH and autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets indicating that FGF-23 is an important determinant of Pi homeostasis, vitamin D metabolism and bone mineralization.</p>
