Item Foreword: Calcified Tissue International and Musculoskeletal Research Special Issue: Bone Material Properties and Skeletal Fragility.(Springer, 2015-09) Burr, David B.; Allen, Matthew R.; Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology, IU School of MedicineItem Risk Factors for Fracture in Patients with Coexisting Chronic Kidney Disease and Type 2 Diabetes: An Observational Analysis from the CREDENCE Trial(Hindawi, 2022-05-27) Young, Tamara K.; Toussaint, Nigel D.; Di Tanna, Gian Luca; Arnott, Clare; Hockham, Carinna; Kang, Amy; Schutte, Aletta E.; Perkovic, Vlado; Mahaffey, Kenneth W.; Agarwal, Rajiv; Bakris, George L.; Charytan, David M.; Heerspink, Hiddo J.L.; Levin, Adeera; Pollock, Carol; Wheeler, David C.; Zhang, Hong; Jardine, Meg J.; Medicine, School of MedicineBackground: The fracture pathophysiology associated with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is incompletely understood. We examined individual fracture predictors and prediction sets based on different pathophysiological hypotheses, testing whether any of the sets improved prediction beyond that based on traditional osteoporotic risk factors. Methods: Within the CREDENCE cohort with adjudicated fracture outcomes, we assessed the association of individual factors with fracture using Cox regression models. We used the Akaike information criteria (AIC) and Schwartz Bayes Criterion (SBC) to assess six separate variable sets based on hypothesized associations with fracture, namely, traditional osteoporosis, exploratory general population findings, cardiovascular risk, CKD-mineral and bone disorder, diabetic osteodystrophy, and an all-inclusive set containing all variables. Results: Fracture occurred in 135 (3.1%) participants over a median 2.35 [1.88-2.93] years. Independent fracture predictors were older age (hazard ratio [HR] 1.04, confidence interval [CI] 1.01-1.06), female sex (HR 2.49, CI 1.70-3.65), previous fracture (HR 2.30, CI 1.58-3.34), Asian race (HR 1.74, CI 1.09-2.78), vitamin D therapy requirement (HR 2.05, CI 1.31-3.21), HbA1c (HR 1.14, CI 1.00-1.32), prior cardiovascular event (HR 1.60, CI 1.10-2.33), and serum albumin (HR 0.41, CI 0.23-0.74) (lower albumin associated with greater risk). The goodness of fit of the various hypothesis sets was similar (AIC range 1870.92-1849.51, SBC range 1875.60-1948.04). Conclusion: Independent predictors of fracture were identified in the CREDENCE participants with type 2 diabetes and CKD. Fracture prediction was not improved by models built on alternative pathophysiology hypotheses compared with traditional osteoporosis predictors.Item The Impact of Advanced Glycation End Products on Bone Properties in Chronic Kidney Disease(Wolters Kluwer, 2021) Damrath, John G.; Creecy, Amy; Wallace, Joseph M.; Moe, Sharon M.; Medicine, School of MedicinePurpose of review: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects over 15% of Americans and results in an increased risk of skeletal fractures and fracture-related mortality. However, there remain great challenges in estimating fracture risk in CKD patients, as conventional metrics such as bone density assess bone quantity without accounting for the material quality of the bone tissue. The purpose of this review is to highlight the detrimental effects of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) on the structural and mechanical properties of bone, and to demonstrate the importance of including bone quality when assessing fracture risk in CKD patients. Recent findings: Increased oxidative stress and inflammation drive the production of AGEs in CKD patients that form nonenzymatic crosslinks between type I collagen fibrils in the bone matrix. Nonenzymatic crosslinks stiffen and embrittle the bone, reducing its ability to absorb energy and resist fracture. Clinical measurement of AGEs is typically indirect and fails to distinguish the identity and properties of the various AGEs. Summary: Accounting for the impact of AGEs on the skeleton in CKD patients may improve our estimation of overall bone quality, fracture risk, and treatments to improve both bone quantity and quality by reducing AGEs in patients with CKD merit investigation in order to improve our understanding of the etiology of increased fracture risk.
