- Overview of renal osteodystrophy in Brazil: a cross-sectional study(2023) CARBONARA, Cinthia E. M.; ROZA, Noemi A. V.; REIS, Luciene M. dos; CARVALHO, Aluizio B.; JORGETTI, Vanda; OLIVEIRA, Rodrigo Bueno deIntroduction: The epidemiologic profile of renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is changing over time and cross-sectional studies provide essential information to improve care and health policies. The Brazilian Registry of Bone Biopsy (REBRABO) is a prospective, nationalmulticenter cohort that includes patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing bone biopsy. REBRABO aims to provide clinical information on ROD. The main objective of this subanalysis was to describe the profile of ROD, including clinically relevant associations. Methods: From Aug/2015 to Dec/2021, 511 patients with CKD who performed bone biopsy were included in the REBRABO platform. Patients with no bone biopsy report (N = 40), GFR > 90 mL/min (N = 28), without asigned consent (N = 24), bone fragments inadequate for diagnosis (N = 23), bone biopsy indicated by a specialty other than nephrology (N = 6), and < 18 years old (N = 4) were excluded. Clinical-demographic data (e.g., age, sex, ethnicity, CKD etiology, dialysis vintage, comorbidities, symptoms, and complications related to ROD), laboratory (e.g., serum levels of total calcium, phosphate, parathormone, alkaline phosphatase, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and hemoglobin), and ROD (e.g., histological diagnosis) were analyzed. Results: Data from 386 individuals were considered in this subanalysis of REBRABO. Mean age was 52 (42-60) years; 198 (51%) were male; 315 (82%) were on hemodialysis. Osteitis fibrosa (OF) [163 (42%)], adynamic bone disease (ABD) [96 (25%)] and mixed uremic osteodystrophy (MUO) [83 (21%)] were the most frequent diagnosis of ROD in our sample; 203 (54%) had the diagnosis of osteoporosis, 82 (56%) vascular calcification; 138 (36%) bone aluminum accumulation, and 137 (36%) iron intoxication; patients with high turnover were prone to present a higher frequency of symptoms. Conclusions: A high proportion of patients were diagnosed with OF and ABD, as well as osteoporosis, vascular calcification and clinical symptoms.

There are four distinct types of ROD based on undecalcified bone biopsy results. Adynamic bone disease and osteomalacia are the predominant forms of low bone turnover, while hyperparathyroid bone disease and mixed uremic osteodystrophy (MUO) are typically associated with high bone turnover. MUO is a prevalent but poorly described pathology that demonstrates evidence of osteomalacia on top of the high bone formation/resorption. The prevalence of MUO ranges from 5 to 63% among different studies. The pathogenesis of MUO is multi-factorial. Altered phosphate homeostasis, hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiency, increased FGF-23, interleukins 1 and 6, TNF-& alpha;, amyloid, and heavy metal accumulation are the main inducers of MUO. The clinical findings of MUO are usually non-specific. The use of non-invasive testing such as bone turnover markers and imaging techniques might help to suspect MUO. However, it is usually impossible to precisely diagnose this condition without performing bone biopsy. The principal management of MUO is to control the maladaptive hyperparathyroidism along with correcting any nutritional mineral deficiencies that may induce mineralization defect. MUO is a common but still poorly understood bone pathology category; it demonstrates the complexity and difficulty in understanding ROD. A large prospective bone biopsy-based studies are needed for better identification as proper diagnosis and management would improve the outcome of patients with MUO.
- Effect of aluminum accumulation on bone and cardiovascular risk in the current era(2023) CARBONARA, Cinthia E. M.; ROZA, Noemi A. V.; QUADROS, Kelcia R. S.; FRANCA, Renata A.; ESTEVES, Andre B. A.; PAVAN, Celia R.; BARRETO, Joaquim; REIS, Luciane M. dos; JORGETTI, Vanda; SPOSITO, Andrei C.; OLIVEIRA, Rodrigo BuenoBackgroundThe prevalence of aluminum (Al) intoxication has declined over the past 3 decades. However, different groups still report on the diagnosis of Al in bone. Prolonged and low-intensity exposures to Al may not be captured by serum Al measurements, preventing its proper diagnosis. We hypothesize that bone Al accumulation may be related to bone and cardiovascular events in the current Era. AimsTo detect the diagnosis of bone Al accumulation; to explore bone and cardiovascular consequences of Al accumulation. MethodsThis is a sub-analysis of The Brazilian Registry of Bone Biopsy, a prospective, multicentre cohort, with a mean follow-up of 3.4 years, including patients with CKD undergoing bone biopsy; bone fracture and major cardiovascular events (MACE) were adjudicated; Al accumulation was identified by solochrome-azurine staining; history of previous Al accumulation was registered based on information provided by the nephrologist who performed the bone biopsy; bone histomorphometry parameters, clinical data, and general biochemistry were registered. Results275 individuals were considered; 96 (35%) patients have diagnosed with bone Al accumulation and were younger [50 (41-56) vs. 55 (43-61) years; p = 0.026], had lower body mass index [23.5 (21.6-25.5) vs. 24.3 (22.1-27.8) kg/m(2); p = 0.017], higher dialysis vintage [108 (48-183) vs. 71 (28-132) months; p = 0.002], presented pruritus [23 (24%) vs. 20 (11%); p = 0.005], tendon rupture [7 (7%) vs. 3 (2%); p = 0.03) and bone pain [2 (0-3) vs. 0 (0-3) units; p = 0.02]. Logistic regression reveals that prior bone Al accumulation [OR: 4.517 (CI: 1.176-17.353); p = 0.03] and dialysis vintage [OR: 1.003 (CI: 1.000-1.007); p = 0.046] as independent determinants of bone Al accumulation; minor perturbations in dynamic bone parameters and no differences in bone fractures rate were noted; MACE was more prevalent in patients with bone Al accumulation [21 (34%) vs. 23 (18%) events; p = 0.016]. Cox regression shows the actual/prior diagnosis of bone Al accumulation and diabetes mellitus as independent predictors for MACE: [HR = 3.129 (CI: 1.439-6.804; p = 0.004) and HR = 2.785 (CI: 1.120-6.928; p = 0.028]. ConclusionsAn elevated proportion of patients have bone Al accumulation, associated with a greater prevalence of bone pain, tendon rupture, and pruritus; bone Al accumulation was associated with minor perturbations in renal osteodystrophy; actual/prior diagnosis of bone Al accumulation and diabetes mellitus were independent predictors for MACE.
- Corneal and Coronary Calcification in Maintenance Hemodialysis: The Face Is No Index to the Heart(2023) PESSOA, Maria Beatriz C. N.; SANTO, Ruth Miyuki; DEUS, Aline A. de; DUQUE, Eduardo J.; CRISPILHO, Shirley F.; JORGETTI, Vanda; DALBONI, Maria Aparecida; ROCHITTE, Carlos Eduardo; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Although the eyes are the main site of metastatic calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), corneal and conjunctival calcification (CCC) is poorly evaluated in this population. Whether CCC correlates with coronary artery calcification remains unknown since studies so far have relied on methods with low sensitivity. Our objective was to test the relationship between CCC and coronary calcification based on tomography. This was a cross-sectional study that included patients on maintenance dialysis. Clinical, demographic, and biochemical data (calcium, phosphorus, parathormone, alkaline phosphatase, and 25(OH)-vitamin D) were recorded. Hyperparathyroidism was defined as parathyroid hormone (PTH) > 300 pg/mL. CCC was evaluated by anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), and coronary calcium scores (Agatston method) were assessed by computed tomography. We compared no/mild with moderate/severe CCC. Twenty-nine patients were included (49.6 +/- 15.0 years, 62.1% female, on hemodialysis for 5.7 [2.7-9.4] years, 17.2% with diabetes mellitus, 75.9% with hyperparathyroidism). CCC was found in 82.7% of patients, with median scores of 9 (3, 14.5), ranging from 0 to 16. CCC was classified as absent/mild, moderate, and severe in 27.6%, 20.7%, and 51.7%, respectively. Coronary calcification was found in 44.8% of patients, with median scores of 11 (0, 464), varying from 0 and 6456. We found no significant correlation between coronary calcium scores and CCC (r = 0.203, p = 0.282). Hyperphosphatemia was more frequent in patients with moderate/severe CCC than in those with absent/mild CCC. We concluded that CCC was frequent in patients with CKD on dialysis and did not correlate with coronary calcium scores. Hyperphosphatemia appears to contribute to CCC.(c) 2023 The Authors.
