60
What happens to the balance between bone formation and bone resorption as we age?
It’s getting imbalance, lost bone mass (low bone formation and higher bone resorption).
61
Define osteoporosis.
A medical condition where bone becomes brittle and fragile due to the loss of tissue (typically due to hormonal changes, deficiency of calcium and vitamin D).
62
What is the difference between primary and secondary osteoporosis
* Primary osteoporosis: results from cumulative bone loss as people age and undergo sex hormone changes * Secondary osteoporosis: results from a variety of medical conditions, diseases, or the use of certain medications that adversely affect skeletal health.
63
What is the most common cause of secondary osteoporosis?
Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is the most common cause of secondary cause.
64
How prevalent is osteoporosis and low bone mass?
It can cause severe reductions in bone formation and can, to a lesser extent, increase bone resorption. Osteoporosis affects approximately 10 million Americans and an additional 34 million have low bone mass.
65
What are the consequences of vertebral fractures?
Substantial pain, height loss, and kyphosis, resulting in compression of internal organs.
66
What is the primary determinant of peak bone mass?
In women, the greatest determinant of peak bone mass is heredity.
67
Can people do anything to increase peak bone mass? What would you suggest?
Yes because bone mass accumulation can be affected by nutrition, physical activity, health during growth, and smoking. I would suggest individuals to maintain a healthy diet (as best as possible to maintain healthy weight), maintain a consistent exercise schedule, upkeep your health, and also avoid smoking or excessive alcohol consumption.
68
What is the importance of peak bone mass in risk for osteoporosis?
Maintaining an optimal peak bone mass is important for the prevention of osteoporosis and potential fractures. An increase in the peak bone mass could reduce fracture risk. 10% increase in PBM would decrease the risk of fracture by about 30%.
69
How does WHO define osteopenia and osteoporosis? What is a T-score?
WHO defines low bone mass (osteopenia) as a BMD between -1.0 and -2.5 SD below the norm for young healthy adults of the same sex and osteoporosis is indicated by a BMD of -2.5 SD or below. T score is the expected BMD from a sex-matched young adult healthy population.
70
What is DXA and what sites are typically measured?
DXA is dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. Sites are measured at both spine and the hip.
71
List three drugs that can cause secondary osteoporosis.
Glucocorticoids, aromatase inhibitors, and gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonists.
72
Describe nonpharmacologic interventions to prevent osteoporosis.
A well balanced diet rich in Ca and Vitamin D, regular weight-bearing and muscle-strengthening exercise, smoking cessation, avoidance of excessive alcohol consumption, and prevention of falls. Two main classes of medications are available for postmenopausal osteoporosis: • Antiresorptive agents: decrease bone resportion. • Anabolic agents; promote bone formation.
73
What is the mechanism of action for the following drugs for the treatment/prevention of osteoporosis: (Which are antiresorptive and which are anabolic? Do they affect activity of osteoclasts and/or osteoblasts?) a. Bisphosphonates b. Calcitonin c. PTH (teriparatide) d. Estrogen and selective estrogen receptor modulators e. Denosumab:
a. Bisphosphonates: decrease the rate of bone breakdown. Antiresorptive. For postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, this is the first line of treatment. b. Calcitonin: inhibits osteoclast activity Antiresorptive. c. PTH (teriparatide): stimulates osteoblast activity. Anabolic. d. Estrogen and selective estrogen receptor modulators: inhibit osteoclast formation by stimulating OPG synthesis and inhibiting RANKL expression in osteoblasts. Antiresorptive. e. Denosumab: binds to RANKL and prevents it from activating its receptor RANK. Antiresorptive.
74
Which of these drugs can potentially cause osteosarcoma?
Teriparatide: a recombinant form of PTH, is the only anabolic agent approved for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis. * *Osteonecrosis of the jaw: an area of exposed bone in the maxillofacial region that does not heal within 8 weeks after identification by a health care provider. * Side effects of raloxifene are hot flashes and leg cramps, increase risks of DVT and PE, but reduce risk of invasive breast cancer. * Calcitonin nasal spray: can cause nasal stuffiness, dry mouth, and nausea. * Teriparatide: possible development of osteosarcoma  limited to max of 2 years therapy. It also can cause leg cramps, dizziness, and nausea.
