Tendons play an important role in the maintenance of motor function by connecting muscles and bones and transmitting forces. Particularly, the role of mechanical stress has primarily focused on the key mechanism of tendon homeostasis, with much research on this topic. With the recent development of molecular biological techniques, the mechanisms of mechanical stress sensing and signal transduction have been gradually elucidated with the identification of mechanosensor in tendon cells and the master regulator in tendon development. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the structure and function of tendon tissue, including the role for physical performance and the detailed mechanism of mechanotransduction in its regulation. An important lesson is that the role of mechanotransduction in tendon tissue is only partially clarified, indicating the complexity of the mechanisms of motor function and fueling increasing interest in uncovering these mechanisms.

Whether simultaneous automated ascertainments of prevalent vertebral fracture (auto-PVFx) and abdominal aortic calcification (auto-AAC) on vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) lateral spine bone density (BMD) images jointly predict incident fractures in routine clinical practice is unclear. We estimated the independent associations of auto-PVFx and auto-AAC primarily with incident major osteoporotic and secondarily with incident hip and any clinical fractures in 11 013 individuals (mean [SD] age 75.8 [6.8] years, 93.3% female) who had a BMD test combined with VFA between March 2010 and December 2017. Auto-PVFx and auto-AAC were ascertained using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Proportional hazards models were used to estimate the associations of auto-PVFx and auto-AAC with incident fractures over a mean (SD) follow-up of 3.7 (2.2) years, adjusted for each other and other risk factors. At baseline, 17% (n = 1881) had auto-PVFx and 27% (n = 2974) had a high level of auto-AAC (≥ 6 on scale of 0 to 24). Multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HR) for incident major osteoporotic fracture (95% CI) were 1.85 (1.59, 2.15) for those with compared with those without auto-PVFx, and 1.36 (1.14, 1.62) for those with high compared with low auto-AAC. The multivariable-adjusted HRs for incident hip fracture were 1.62 (95% CI, 1.26 to 2.07) for those with compared to those without auto-PVFx, and 1.55 (95% CI, 1.15 to 2.09) for those high auto-AAC compared with low auto-AAC. The 5-year cumulative incidence of major osteoporotic fracture was 7.1% in those with no auto-PVFx and low auto-AAC, 10.1% in those with no auto-PVFx and high auto-AAC, 13.4% in those with auto-PVFx and low auto-AAC, and 18.0% in those with auto-PVFx and high auto-AAC. While physician manual review of images in clinical practice will still be needed to confirm image quality and provide clinical context for interpretation, simultaneous automated ascertainment of auto-PVFx and auto-AAC can aid fracture risk assessment.

Low bone mineral density and impaired bone quality have been shown to be important prognostic factors for curve progression in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). There is no evidence-based integrative interpretation method to analyze high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) data in AIS. This study aimed to (1) utilize unsupervised machine learning to cluster bone microarchitecture phenotypes on HR-pQCT parameters in girls with AIS, (2) assess the phenotypes' risk of curve progression and progression to surgical threshold at skeletal maturity (primary cohort), and (3) investigate risk of curve progression in a separate cohort of girls with mild AIS whose curve severity did not reach bracing threshold at recruitment (secondary cohort). Patients were followed up prospectively for 6.22 ± 0.33 years in the primary cohort (n = 101). Three bone microarchitecture phenotypes were clustered by fuzzy C-means at time of peripubertal peak height velocity (PHV). Phenotype 1 had normal bone characteristics. Phenotype 2 was characterized by low bone volume and high cortical bone density, and phenotype 3 had low cortical and trabecular bone density and impaired trabecular microarchitecture. The difference in bone quality among the phenotypes was significant at peripubertal PHV and continued to skeletal maturity. Phenotype 3 had significantly increased risk of curve progression to surgical threshold at skeletal maturity (odd ratio [OR] = 4.88; 95% CI, 1.03-28.63). In the secondary cohort (n = 106), both phenotype 2 (adjusted OR = 5.39; 95% CI, 1.47-22.76) and phenotype 3 (adjusted OR = 3.67; 95% CI, 1.05-14.29) had increased risk of curve progression ≥6° with mean follow-up of 3.03 ± 0.16 years. In conclusion, 3 distinct bone microarchitecture phenotypes could be clustered by unsupervised machine learning on HR-pQCT-generated bone parameters at peripubertal PHV in AIS. The bone quality reflected by these phenotypes was found to have significant differentiating risk of curve progression and progression to surgical threshold at skeletal maturity in AIS.

Skeletal growth, modeling, and remodeling are regulated by various molecules, one of them being the recently identified osteoanabolic factor WNT1. We have previously reported that WNT1 transcriptionally activates the expression of Omd, encoding Osteomodulin (OMD), in a murine mesenchymal cell line, which potentially explained the skeletal fragility of mice with mutational WNT1 inactivation, since OMD has been shown to regulate type I collagen fibril formation in vitro. In this study we confirmed the strong induction of Omd expression in a genome-wide expression analysis of transfected cells, and we obtained further evidence for Omd being a direct target gene of WNT1. To assess the in vivo relevance of this regulation, we crossed Omd-deficient mice with a mouse line harboring an inducible, osteoblast-specific Wnt1 transgene. After induction of Wnt1 expression for 1 or 3 weeks, the osteoanabolic potency of WNT1 was not impaired despite the Omd deficiency. Since current knowledge regarding the in vivo physiological function of OMD is limited, we next focused on skeletal phenotyping of wild-type and Omd-deficient littermates, in the absence of a Wnt1 transgene. Here we did not observe an impact of Omd deficiency on trabecular bone parameters by histomorphometry and μCT either. Importantly, however, male and female Omd-deficient mice at the ages of 12 and 24 weeks displayed a slender bone phenotype with significantly smaller long bones in the transversal dimension, while the longitudinal bone growth remained unaffected. Although mechanical testing revealed no significant changes explained by impaired bone material properties, atomic force microscopy of the femoral bone surface of Omd-deficient mice revealed moderate changes at the nanostructural level, indicating altered regulation of collagen fibril formation and aggregation. Taken together, our data demonstrate that, although OMD is dispensable for the osteoanabolic effect of WNT1, its deficiency in mice specifically modulates transversal cortical bone morphology.

Some osteoporosis drug trials have suggested that treatment is more effective in those with low BMD measured by DXA. This study used data from a large set of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to determine whether the anti-fracture efficacy of treatments differs according to baseline BMD. We used individual patient data from 25 RCTs (103 086 subjects) of osteoporosis medications collected as part of the FNIH-ASBMR SABRE project. Participants were stratified into FN BMD T-score subgroups (≤-2.5, > -2.5). We used Cox proportional hazard regression to estimate treatment effect for clinical fracture outcomes and logistic regression for the radiographic vertebral fracture outcome. We also performed analyses based on BMD quintiles. Overall, 42% had a FN BMD T-score ≤ -2.5. Treatment with anti-osteoporosis drugs led to significant reductions in fractures in both T-score ≤ -2.5 and > -2.5 subgroups. Compared to those with FN BMD T-score > -2.5, the risk reduction for each fracture outcome was greater in those with T-score ≤ -2.5, but only the all-fracture outcome reached statistical significance (interaction P = .001). Results were similar when limited to bisphosphonate trials. In the quintile analysis, there was significant anti-fracture efficacy across all quintiles for vertebral fractures and with greater effects on fracture risk reduction for non-vertebral, all, and all clinical fractures in the lower BMD quintiles (all interaction P ≤ .03). In summary, anti-osteoporotic medications reduced the risk of fractures regardless of baseline BMD. Significant fracture risk reduction with treatment for 4 of the 5 fracture endpoints was seen in participants with T-scores above -2.5, though effects tended to be larger and more significant in those with baseline T-scores <-2.5.
一些骨质疏松症药物试验表明,通过双能 X 射线吸收测量法(DXA)测量的骨质密度(BMD)较低者的治疗效果更好。本研究使用了大量随机对照试验(RCT)的数据,以确定治疗方法的抗骨折疗效是否因基线 BMD 而异。我们使用了作为 FNIH-ASBMR SABRE 项目一部分收集的 25 项骨质疏松症药物随机对照试验(103 086 例受试者)的患者个体数据。参与者被分为股骨颈 (FN) BMD T 评分亚组(≤-2.5,>-2.5)。我们使用 Cox 比例危险回归估算临床骨折结果的治疗效果,使用 logistic 回归估算放射学椎体骨折结果的治疗效果。我们还根据 BMD 五分位数进行了分析。总体而言,42%的患者 FN BMD T 评分≤-2.5。使用抗骨质疏松药物治疗可显著减少 T 评分≤ -2.5 和 > -2.5 亚组的骨折发生率。与 FN BMD T 评分 > -2.5 的患者相比,T 评分≤ -2.5 的患者在每种骨折结果中的风险降低幅度更大,但只有所有骨折结果达到统计学意义(交互作用 p = 0.001)。如果仅限于双膦酸盐试验,结果类似。在五分位数分析中,所有五分位数对椎体骨折都有显著的抗骨折疗效,在较低的 BMD 五分位数中,对降低非椎体骨折、所有骨折和所有临床骨折的骨折风险有更大的作用(所有交互作用 p ≤ 0.03)。总之,无论基线 BMD 如何,抗骨质疏松药物都能降低骨折风险。T值高于-2.5的参与者通过治疗可显著降低5个骨折终点中4个终点的骨折风险,但对基线T值为-2.5的参与者的影响往往更大、更显著。

Evidence on the comparative effectiveness of osteoporosis treatments is heterogeneous. This may be attributed to different populations and clinical practice, but also to differing methodologies ensuring comparability of treatment groups before treatment effect estimation and the amount of residual confounding by indication. This study assessed the comparability of denosumab vs oral bisphosphonate (OBP) groups using propensity score (PS) methods and negative control outcome (NCO) analysis. A total of 280 288 women aged ≥50 yr initiating denosumab or OBP in 2011-2018 were included from the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) and the Danish National Registries (DNR). Balance of observed covariates was assessed using absolute standardized mean difference (ASMD) before and after PS weighting, matching, and stratification, with ASMD >0.1 indicating imbalance. Residual confounding was assessed using NCOs with ≥100 events. Hazard ratio (HR) and 95%CI between treatment and NCO were estimated using Cox models. Presence of residual confounding was evaluated with 2 approaches (1) >5% of NCOs with 95% CI excluding 1, (2) >5% of NCOs with an upper CI <0.75 or lower CI >1.3. The number of imbalanced covariates before adjustment (CPRD 22/87; DNR 18/83) decreased, with 2%-11% imbalance remaining after weighting, matching, or stratification. Using approach 1, residual confounding was present for all PS methods in both databases (≥8% of NCOs), except for stratification in DNR (3.8%). Using approach 2, residual confounding was present in CPRD with PS matching (5.3%) and stratification (6.4%), but not with weighting (4.3%). Within DNR, no NCOs had HR estimates with upper or lower CI limits beyond the specified bounds indicating residual confounding for any PS method. Achievement of covariate balance and determination of residual bias were dependent upon several factors including the population under study, PS method, prevalence of NCO, and the threshold indicating residual confounding.

Residual confounding was assessed using NCOs with ≥100 events. Hazard ratio (HR) and 95%CI between treatment and NCO were estimated using Cox models. Presence of residual confounding was evaluated with 2 approaches (1) >5% of NCOs with 95% CI excluding 1, (2) >5% of NCOs with an upper CI <0.75 or lower CI >1.3. The number of imbalanced covariates before adjustment (CPRD 22/87; DNR 18/83) decreased, with 2%-11% imbalance remaining after weighting, matching, or stratification. Using approach 1, residual confounding was present for all PS methods in both databases (≥8% of NCOs), except for stratification in DNR (3.8%). Using approach 2, residual confounding was present in CPRD with PS matching (5.3%) and stratification (6.4%), but not with weighting (4.3%). Within DNR, no NCOs had HR estimates with upper or lower CI limits beyond the specified bounds indicating residual confounding for any PS method. Achievement of covariate balance and determination of residual bias were dependent upon several factors including the population under study, PS method, prevalence of NCO, and the threshold indicating residual confounding.</p>","PeriodicalId":185,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bone and Mineral Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140846652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Adrenal adenomas/incidentalomas with mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS)/subclinical hypercortisolism (SH) are often associated with metabolic syndrome, glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, and fractures. In this background, the present systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to collate the available evidence and provide a summary of the effect of MACS/SH on bone health in terms of fractures, osteoporosis/osteopenia, microarchitecture, and bone turnover. PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science databases were systematically searched for observational studies reporting prevalence of fractures, osteoporosis/osteopenia or data on bone microarchitecture/bone turnover markers (BTMs). Following literature search, 16 observational studies were included. Pooled prevalence of any fractures (vertebral and non-vertebral), vertebral fractures, and osteoporosis/osteopenia in MACS/SH were 43% [95% confidence intervals (CI): 23%, 62%], 45% (95% CI: 22%, 68%) and 50% (95% CI: 33%, 66%), respectively. On meta-regression, age, sex, 24-hour urinary free cortisol, and dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate did not predict fracture risk. The likelihood of any fractures [odds ratio (OR) 1.61; 95% CI: 1.18, 2.20; P = 0.0026], vertebral fractures (OR 2.10; 95% CI: 1.28, 3.45; P = 0.0035), and osteoporosis/osteopenia (OR 1.46; 95% CI: 1.15, 1.85; P = 0.0018) was significantly higher in adrenal adenomas and MACS/SH than non-functional adrenal adenomas. Subjects with MACS/SH had significantly lower bone mineral density (BMD) at lumbar spine [mean difference (MD) -0.07 g/cm2; 95% CI: -0.11, -0.03; P = 0.0004) and femoral neck (MD -0.05 g/cm2; 95% CI: -0.08, -0.02; P = 0.0045) than their non-functional counterparts. Limited data showed no significant difference in BTMs. Publication bias was observed in the pooled prevalence of any fractures, vertebral fractures and pooled MD of femoral neck BMD. To conclude, people with adrenal adenomas/incidentalomas and MACS/SH are at a 1.5- to 2-fold higher likelihood of fractures and osteoporosis/osteopenia compared to non-functional adrenal adenomas and should routinely be screened for bone disease. Nevertheless, considering the modest sample size of studies and evidence of publication bias, larger and high-quality studies are required (CRD42023471045).
