BACKGROUND: Low bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS) are established risk factors for fractures even in hemodialysis population and they seem to be significantly lower in comparison with general population. The aim of our study was to describe 2-year loss of BMD and TBS and their predictors in hemodialysis patients. METHODS: From 59 non-selected patients (mean age 67.6 ± 13.1 years) from one dialysis centre, treated with hemodiafiltration (HDF), clinical and laboratory characteristics were obtained and densitometry examinations (with BMD and TBS results) were performed initially and at the end of 2-year follow-up. RESULTS: Two-year decrease in BMD of lumbar spine reached 4.1% (ns), of proximal femur 9.1% (p = 0.004), and of femoral neck 1.3% (ns). In the co-educated cohort, BMD decrease in all the sites correlated significantly with age and only the change of BMD of lumbar spine was negatively associated with serum calcium (r = - 0.39; p = 0.04) and dialysis vintage (r = - 0.387; p = 0.062), no other predictors of BMD loss were identified. Some predictors of BMD loss were identified with regard to gender. TBS decrease was 0.05 (3.9%; p = 0.03), and similarly, it was not predicted by any of selected parameters. No differences in BMD changes or TBS were observed between the patients with and without fractures. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with HDF, significant BMD and TBS annual losses were observed, and they were associated only with age and (in BMD of lumbar spine) with serum calcium and dialysis vintage.

INTRODUCTION: Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and an increased risk of fracture. In randomized controlled trials, denosumab has been shown to significantly reduce the fracture risk in women with osteoporosis. However, little is known about the real-world management of women who are prescribed denosumab. METHODS: This multicenter, prospective, observational real-world study in the Czech Republic and Slovakia evaluated the baseline characteristics and clinical management of women with postmenopausal osteoporosis prescribed denosumab for 24 months. RESULTS: A total of 600 women were included (300 in each country). In the Czech Republic and Slovakia, respectively, mean age at enrollment was 69.0 and 64.3 years, 67.7% and 30.0% of patients had a previous osteoporotic fracture, and 85.0% and 48.7% had previously received osteoporosis medication. In both countries, 'low BMD T score' and 'a history of osteoporotic fracture' were the main reasons for prescribing denosumab. Most patients received all four post-baseline denosumab injections (Czech Republic, 82.0%; Slovakia, 81.0%), and more than 98% of patients in both countries received all injections at the prescribing center. At 24 months, most patients experienced an increase in BMD T score for the lumbar spine, total hip, or femoral neck (Czech Republic, 69.7-91.7%; Slovakia, 67.1-92.9%). Adverse drug reactions were consistent with the known safety profile of denosumab. CONCLUSION: Baseline characteristics of patients receiving denosumab in the Czech Republic and Slovakia reflect the reimbursement criteria for this agent in each country. The findings of our study in patients who are at high risk for fracture are consistent with the growing body of evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of denosumab in real-world clinical practice.

PURPOSE: Bone involvement represents one of the complications of end-stage chronic kidney disease, with fractures being its major risk. The aim of our study was to assess the frequency and predictors of low-trauma fractures in a cohort of maintenance hemodialysis patients followed-up on for 2 years. METHODS: 59 patients (67.6 ± 13.1 years, 43 males) treated with hemodiafiltration underwent initially laboratory (markers of calcium-phosphate metabolism and bone turnover markers) and densitometry examination with TBS assessment (Lunar Prodigy, TBS software 2.1.2). During 24-month follow-up, the frequency of low-trauma fractures was assessed and possible predictors of increased fracture risk were identified using product-moment correlation matrices. RESULTS: Altogether 7 (11.9%) low-trauma fractures were observed. In the whole group, age (P = 0.047), T-score in proximal femur (P = 0.04), low vitamin D, low BMI (P = 0.03 for both), and higher FRAX for major osteoporotic fracture (P = 0.01) were connected with fractures, but in multi-variate analysis only BMI remained significantly negatively associated with fractures (P = 0.047). TBS and bone turnover markers failed to predict fractures. However, women with fractures had significantly lower serum phosphate (P = 0.03) and higher parathyroid hormone (P = 0.04). Parameters of hip structure analysis significantly correlated with FRAX, but not with fractures. CONCLUSIONS: In a group of hemodialysis patients from one centre, T-score in proximal femur, low vitamin D, low BMI, and high FRAX for major osteoporotic fracture were associated with low-trauma fractures, however, in multi-variate analysis only low BMI remained a significant predictor of fracture risk.
