Longitudinal Study of Cortical Bone Loss in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Abstract: Bone mineral density of the radius was measured by single-photon absorptiometry in 50 patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Thirty-three had Crohn's disease and 17 ulcerative colitis; 25 were women. The mean age was 45 years (range, 18-70 years). Measurements were repeated in 39 of them after a mean follow-up period of 7.9 years (range, 7.1-8.2 years). In female patients the mean (95% confidence interval) annual change in radial bone mineral density was -0.74% (-1.34% to -0.14%) (P = 0.022), the greatest b… Show more

“…In accordance with the findings of others [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9], osteocalcin levels in our patients with Crohn's disease differed from those of healthy controls. However, this only reflects a statistical mean value in all patients, including patients with different inflammatory activities and different levels of physiological exercise.…”

“…Patients with Crohn's disease are well known to have local and generalized osteopenia of varying degrees [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. However, the aetiology of this skeletal complication is still poorly understood.…”

“…Estudos prévios, que utilizaram como referência um Z score menor que -2,0, mostraram prevalência bastante variável, entre 2% e 32%, mas com grande diferença entre os pacientes estudados, principalmente quanto a idade, grau de atividade e tempo de doença e uso de corticosteróides (34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39). Pode-se considerar essa prevalência ainda mais preocupante se levar em conta o tempo de doença relativamente curto nos pacientes do presente estudo (6,30 4,60 na DC e 5,60 3,80 na RCUI) e ainda o fato destes pacientes serem adultos jovens.…”

“…3,4 The osteoporosis seen in female patients with Crohn's disease can be prevented by sex hormone replacement therapy (HRT). 5,6 Jejunoileal bypass surgery has been performed for morbid obesity and, more recently, for hyperlipidaemia. By the 1980s it was estimated that, worldwide, many tens of thousands of operations had been performed.…”
