Abstract Background and Aims Bone disease after kidney transplantation is an issue of growing concern, as prolonged graft survival and older age of recipients necessitate focus on long-term health burdens such as osteoporosis and fractures. Pre-existing type of renal osteodystrophy, post-transplant immunosuppressive treatment, and de novo disturbances of mineral metabolism all contribute to bone disease in kidney transplant recipients. The current pattern of renal osteodystrophy after kidney transplantation is not well characterized. This study reports histomorphometric findings of protocolled bone biopsies in a large cohort of kidney transplant recipients 1 year post-transplant. Method Histomorphometric analysis of transiliac bone biopsies with prior tetracycline labelling was performed in 141 kidney transplant recipients. Biochemical measurements included bioactive parathyroid hormone (PTH), total calcium, phosphate, calcidiol, bicarbonate, and sclerostin. Kruskal-Wallis and Wilcoxon signed rank tests were used to evaluate differences across categories and between groups, respectively. Stepwise multivariate linear regression was performed to identify key demographic and biochemical determinants of bone turnover (bone formation rate, BFR), mineralization (mineralization lag time, Mlt), and volume (Bone area, BAr). Results Mean age was 57±11 years, 71% were men, and all were Caucasian. Mean eGFR was 49±16 (range 19 to 106) ml/min/1.73 m². Hyperparathyroidism (PTH > 1.5xUNL) was seen in 48%, hypercalcemia (>10.3 mg/dL) in 18%, hypophosphatemia (<2.3 mg/dl) in 12%, and vitamin D deficiency (<15 ng/mL) in 4% of patients. Categorization of bone turnover, mineralization, and volume is shown in Figure 1. Bone turnover was normal in the vast majority (71%). Patients with low turnover (26%) had received a higher cumulative steroid dose (2.78 vs 2.34g in low vs non-low turnover; p=0.02). Patients with delayed mineralization (16%) were younger (52 vs 58 yrs, p=0.02) and had received a higher cumulative steroid dose (2.85 vs 2.36g, p=0.003). They had higher levels of PTH (124 vs 53 ng/L, p<0.001), and lower levels of phosphate (2.68 vs 3.18 mg/dL, p<0.001), calcidiol (29 vs 37ug/L, p=0.02), bicarbonate (21.3 vs 23.3 mmol/L, p=0.004), and sclerostin (493 vs 594 pg/mL, p=0.03) compared to patients with normal mineralization. Patients with low bone volume tended to be older (61 vs 56 years, p=0.07). Independent determinants of BFR were PTH (β=0.68, p<0.001) and cumulative steroid dose (β = -0.22, p=0.02). Determinants of Mlt were phosphate (β=-0.48, p=0.001) and cumulative steroid dose (β=0.18, p=0.004), and determinants of BAr were age (β=-0.15, p=0.002), and BMI (β=0.33, p=0.002). Conclusion Bone turnover is normal in the majority of kidney transplant recipients at 1 year post-transplant, despite a high prevalence of hyperparathyroidism. Low levels of bicarbonate, phosphate, and calcidiol may contribute to delayed bone mineralization in kidney transplant recipients.

Bone Disorder

Bone disease is one of the most challenging complications in patients with chronic kidney disease. Today, it is considered to be part of a complex systemic disorder manifested by disturbances of mineral metabolism and vascular calcifications called chronic kidney disease – mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD). The term renal osteodystrophy is reserved to define the specific bone lesion in CKD-MBD, whose spectrum ranges from high turnover to low turnover disease. Phosphate retention, decreased serum calcium, and 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D synthesis are involved in the pathogenesis of high bone turnover. However, the various therapeutic approaches (calcium supplements, phosphate binders, and vitamin D metabolites, among others), the renal replacement modality (hemodialysis or continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis), and the types of patients to whom dialysis is offered (more patients who are diabetic or older, or both) may influence the evolution of the bone disorder. As a result, recent studies have reported a greater prevalence of adynamic forms of renal osteodystrophy, especially in diabetic and peritoneal dialysis patients. The present article reviews, for patients treated with peritoneal dialysis, the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in the evolution and perpetuation of this bone disease and the therapeutic modalities for treating and preventing adynamic bone.

Capd Patient

It seems that CAPD may improve some patients with osteomalacia but may be similar to hemodialysis in regard to osteitis fibrosa. However, long-term prospective evaluation of the incidence of bone disease in CAPD patients is necessary before we can determine how CAPD may alter the incidence and expression of renal osteodystrophy. We need more information before we can conclude that CAPD may improve pure osteomalacia. Finally, the data available are insufficient to clarify the role of vitamin D analogues in these patients.

Abstract Background and Aims The diagnosis and the differentiation of renal osteodystrophy (ROD) are challenging. Bone biopsy is the golden standard, but it is invasive and not available in every center. Bone turnover rate is defined by bone formation rate and/or activation frequency. Adynamic bone disease is defined as low turnover bone with reduced osteoblast- and osteoclast activities. Hyperparahyreoid bone disease or osteitis fibrosa is defined as high turnover bone with osteoclast- and osteoblast activities and fibrosis. 18F- Sodium Fluoride positron emission tomography (18F-NaF PET) is a noninvasive imaging technique that allows assessment of regional bone turnover. The aim was to assess how well bone turnover –based classification of ROD correlates with the classification determined by an expert histomorphometrist (HK), and how these correlate with 18F-NaF PET analysis Method A total of 24 dialysis patients underwent a 18F-NaF PET scan. Fluoride activity was measured at the anterior iliac crest and in the lumbar region. An iliac crest bone biopsy was obtained within 4 weeks from the PET-scan. The diagnosis of bone histomorphometry was determined based on turnover-mineralization-volume (TMV) classification. Firstly, bone turnover was assessed using bone formation rate and activation frequency. Secondly, also other histomorphometric parameters (eg. osteoid volume, osteoid surface, resorption surface, mineralized surface, osteoblast and osteoclast surfaces and peritrabecular fibrosis) were also taking into account for classification of ROD by a histomorphometrist. Results Based on bone turnover parameters only, 12% of the patients had high turnover and 64% low turnover. When the diagnosis of renal osteodystrophy was made by a histomorphometrist, 40% had hyperparathyreoid bone/osteitis fibrosa and 24% adynamic bone disease or ostemalasia. 18F-NaF PET´s sensitivity to recognize hyperparathyreoid bone disease was 80% end specificity 100% (cut-of value 0.055).18F-NaF PET´s sensitivity to recognize adynamic bone disease was 100% and specificity 61% (cut-of value of fluoride-activity 0.038) Conclusion 18F-NaF PET works well as a diagnostic tool, when the diagnosis of ROD is based on the histopathological evaluation. It remains unknown how variations in normal bone turnover rate can be detected in CKD patients by 18F-NaF PET and if treatment decisions of ROD can be made only based on bone turnover.

INTRODUCTION: Renal osteodystrophy includes the complete range of mineral metabolism disorders that affect the skeleton in patients with chronic renal failure. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 200 patients with end-stage renal disease and on dialysis were investigated regarding the clinical, biochemical and histological findings of bone disease. RESULTS: The spectrum of renal osteodystrophy consisted mainly of high turnover bone lesions (74.5%), including osteitis fibrosa in 57.5%. Patients with mild bone disease were on dialysis for shorter periods of time and were mostly asymptomatic. Patients with aluminum-related bone disease (16.5%) had the greatest aluminum exposure, either orally or parenterally, and together with patients with high turnover mixed disease, were the most symptomatic. Although on a non-regular basis, the vast majority of the patients (82.5%) had been receiving vitamin D. The incidence of adynamic bone disease was high (n=8) among parathyroidectomized patients (n=12). Significantly higher serum levels of alkaline phosphatase were observed in osteitis fibrosa. CONCLUSIONS: The use of calcitriol and phosphate-binding agents on a non-regular basis seems to be the reason for the apparent reduced response to the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism. Alkaline phosphatase has been shown to be a fair marker for bone turnover in patients with osteitis fibrosa. The severity of the clinical manifestations of bone disease correlates with the histological features of bone lesion and to the time spent on dialysis.
