简要总结
The primary aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of low bone mineral density (BMD) and vertebral fractures, as determined by a standardized assessment, and to elucidate the role of bone qualities, including micro-architecture, bone remodeling, bone turnover, mineralization and inflammation on bone density and prevalent vertebral fractures in a large population of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients.
The secondary aim of the study is to evaluate the following parameters in women with steroid induced OP (SIOP) before and after 1 year of treatment using:
- The changes in BMD using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)
- Bone mineralization and architecture in-vivo using a newly available high-resolution human micro-computed tomography (ExtremCT), which can provide us with new insights into how the degree and distribution of mineralization are affected by long-term oral Ibandronate treatment.
- Changes in perfusion and marrow edema before and after treatment of Ibandronate using dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in these patients with SIOP.
- The investigators prospectively evaluate the correlation between the changes in brachial arterial endothelial function and lumbar spine BMD in female lupus patients over the period of 1 year.
详细描述
In the first part of the study, 150 consecutive patients with a diagnosis of SLE were included in the study. All patients fulfilled the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) revised criteria for the classification of SLE and provided written informed consent. Data collected at the time of study inclusion were age, disease duration, race, menstrual status, age at menopause, periods of amenorrhea, family history of osteoporosis, ultraviolet (UV) light intolerance, sunshine avoidance, use of sunscreens in the previous year, calculated mean daily dietary calcium intake in the last 3 months, history of (non)vertebral fractures after the age of 25 years, comorbidity, alcohol and tobacco intake, and exercise status.Body weight, height, and body mass index (BMI) were assessed. Disease activity was scored using the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) 54. Accumulated organ damage was assessed with the SLICC/ ACR damage index (DI) 55. A modified DI score was derived as the DI score excluding osteoporotic fractures as a damage item.BMD measurements of the hip (total hip and femoral neck) and the lumbar spine (L1-4; anteroposterior view) as well as lateral radiographs of the thoracic and lumbar spine (T5-L4)were performed. The prevalence of low BMD and vertebral fractures will be assessed.
In the second part of the study, 40 female SLE patients with steroid induced osteopenia will be enrolled in a 12-month, randomized, parallel-group, controlled study. Patients will receive either oral Ibandronate 150 mg once monthly plus daily alfacalcidol (0.001 mg) or placebo ibandronate once monthly plus daily alfacalcidol(0.001mg).In addition, the intake of dietary calcium will estimate by a questionnaire on the screening visit. All patients will receive a daily calcium supplement(500 mg).
Primary outcome is the improvement of bone mineral density measured by DEXA.
Secondary outcome includes:
- Evaluation of the changes in bone mineralization and architecture measured by Xtreme CT.
- Evaluation of the changes in perfusion and marrow edema using MRI.
- Anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory action of alfacalcidol using serum level of interleukin-6 (IL-6), transforming growth factor-beta-1, angiotensin-II, as well as urinary levels of TGF and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1).
