Study Notes
Metabolic Bone Disorders: Osteomalacia, Hypophosphatasia, CKD-MBD, Hyperparathyroidism
- Osteomalacia is caused by vitamin D deficiency or faulty metabolism and can lead to bone deformities and pathologic fractures.
- Diagnosis of osteomalacia involves biochemical findings similar to rickets, low vitamin D concentration, low serum calcium, low serum phosphate, elevated alkaline phosphatase, and parathyroid hormone.
- Hypophosphatasia is a rare metabolic bone disease with perinatal and childhood variants characterized by skeletal hypomineralization and respiratory compromise.
- Diagnosis of hypophosphatasia involves dental findings, low serum alkaline phosphatase, and gene mutation analysis.
- Treatment of hypophosphatasia includes maintaining calcium balance, physical, dental, and orthopedic interventions, and in some cases, enzyme replacement therapy.
- Chronic Kidney Disease Mineral Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD) is characterized by abnormal metabolism of calcium, phosphorus, parathyroid hormone, and abnormalities in bone turnover.
- CKD-MBD leads to uremic vascular calcification and osteoporosis, and treatment involves nutritional vitamin D supplementation.
- Hyperparathyroidism is characterized by elevated blood calcium and parathyroid hormone levels, with primary hyperparathyroidism commonly caused by parathyroid adenoma.
- Secondary hyperparathyroidism is often due to vitamin D deficiency or chronic kidney disease.
- Hypercalcaemia occurs in 20% to 30% of cancer patients and is associated with malignancy.
- Primary hyperparathyroidism is often cured by removing the adenoma or using cinacalcet to decrease PTH levels.
- Secondary hyperparathyroidism is common in chronic kidney disease and requires treatment of the underlying condition and sometimes vitamin D supplementation.
Clinical Research on Calcium Disorders and Rickets
- Clinical research focuses on sarcopenia mechanisms, epidemiology, diagnostic criteria, and therapeutic approaches
- New pharmaceutical therapies in development include myostatin and selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs)
- Hypercalcaemia is relatively common, occurring in about 2.7% of cancer patients
- Symptoms of hypercalcaemia range from abdominal pain to abnormal heart rhythm
- Causes of hypercalcaemia include primary hyperparathyroidism, cancer, and other conditions
- Hypocalcaemia symptoms include numbness, muscle spasms, confusion, and cardiac arrest
- Causes of hypocalcaemia include hypoparathyroidism, vitamin D deficiency, and other medical conditions and medications
- Rickets is common in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia, affecting children aged 3 to 18 months
- Rickets is caused by vitamin D deficiency, dark skin, and lack of sun exposure
- Rickets symptoms include bowed legs, stunted growth, bone pain, and other complications
- Various types of rickets exist, including vitamin D-related, hypophosphatemia-related, and congenital forms
- Osteomalacia, a milder adult form of rickets, is caused by inadequate bone mineralization due to vitamin D or phosphate deficiency
