What’s New in Osteoporosis
Diagnosis and Treatment?

Diagnosis/Intervention Thresholds Based On

Risk Factors Do Not Allow
Prediction of BMD
IMPACT Trial: ~7000 postmenopausal women had BMD
measurement and risk factor assessment
48% of those with osteoporosis had no risk factors
53% of those with risk factors did not have osteoporosis
Watts, Arth Rheum 2001
Indications for BMD Testing
 All
women aged 65 and older
 Postmenopausal women under age 65 with risk factors
 All men aged 70 and older
 Adults with a fragility fracture
 Adults with a disease or condition associated with low
bone mass or bone loss
 Adults taking medications associated with low bone
mass or bone loss
 Anyone being considered for pharmacologic therapy
 Anyone being treated, to monitor treatment effect
 Any not receiving therapy in whom evidence of bone loss
would lead to treatment
Women discontinuing estrogen should be considered for bone
density testing according to the indications listed

Use the L1-L4 Average T-score
Don’t “Cherry-Pick” the Lowest
More vertebral bodies
improves precision
T-score
L1 = -1.6
Criteria for excluding
vertebrae from analysis:
L2 = -0.8
- Focal structural abnormality
- Failure of BMC and area to  from L1-L4
- >1 T-score discrepancy between
adjacent vertebrae
L3 = -0.1
L4 = 0.4
However, It Is Appropriate to
Exclude Abnormal Vertebrae

What About “Peripheral” BMD
Measurements?
What About “Peripheral” BMD
Measurements?
 Use
of WHO criteria for the diagnosis of normal,
osteopenic or osteoporotic BMD inappropriate
Currently,
if central DXA available; don’t
make dx of osteoporosis based on
peripheral measurement
Cannot be used to monitor osteoporosis
therapy
When Should the Forearm be Measured?
When the Hip and/or Spine Cannot be Accurately
Measured
These Situations Include:
 Extensive
spinal instrumentation
 Severe scoliosis
 Severe degenerative changes
 Multiple compression fractures
 Bilateral hip replacements
 Obesity
Hamdy, JCD 2002
Isn’t the Forearm a
“Peripheral” Site?
“Osteoporosis is defined as a bone
mass more than 2.5 SD below the
young adult reference mean at
the spine, hip or mid-radius.”
WHO Technical Report
Stable BMD on Treatment is a Success
12 mo BMD change in ~3000 ALN treated patients
Hochberg, Arthritis Rheum 1999
This is Due to Anti-resorptive Induced
Reduction in “Stress Risers”
What’s a Real Change on Followup DXA?
 Necessary

This is facility, technician and patient population dependent
 UW


to perform an in-vivo precision study
LSC need to see BMD change of:
Ballpark; 3-4% at the L1-4 spine and mean total femur
This varies between facilities
 A “decrease”
from .890 to .875 g/cm2 is no change

(grams/cm ),
Use the BMD
Not the T-score When
Performing Follow-up DXA

L1-L4 BMD = .705 g/cm2
T-score = -3.9

WHO Criteria Should Not be Applied
to Healthy Premenopausal Women
 Z-scores
rather than T-scores should be used
 Osteoporosis may be diagnosed if there is low BMD
with secondary causes (glucocorticoid therapy,
hypogonadism, hyperparathyroidism, etc) or with risk
factors for fracture
The
diagnosis of osteoporosis in
premenopausal women should not be made
on densitometric criteria alone
Osteoporosis
A systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone
mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone
tissue, with a consequent susceptibility to fracture
How Should Osteoporosis Be Diagnosed In Non-Caucasians?
ISCD Position Regarding Osteoporosis
Diagnosis in Non-Caucasians
Utilize a uniform Caucasian
(universal) normative
database and a T-score of -2.5
for osteoporosis diagnosis

How Should Osteoporosis Be Diagnosed In Men?
The WHO Criteria Should Not be
Applied in Entirety to Men
Age
65 and older, T-scores should be used and
osteoporosis diagnosed if the T-score is ≤ -2.5
Age 50 to 64, T-scores may be used and osteoporosis
diagnosed if both the T-score is –2.5 or less and other
risk factors for fracture are identified
The
diagnosis of osteoporosis in men less than
age 50 should not be made on densitometric
criteria alone
Densitometric Vertebral Fracture
Assessment (VFA) Will Be Standard

In the late 1800’s
estimated that ~90% of
children who lived in
industrialized cities of
Europe and North America
had rickets
Signs of rickets include;
growth retardation,
widening of the ends of
the long bones and bowing
and bending of the legs
Vitamin D History
1889; Palm: Children living in 3rd world
countries at lower risk of rickets;
suggested sunbathing
1919; Huldschinsky; exposure of people to
mercury arc lamp cured rickets
1924; Steenbock; food irradiation cured

Current Status
 Many
–
breakfast cereals are fortified with D
Usual fortification level = 40-140 IU’s.
 Enriched
rice and cornmeal; not fortified
 Enriched noodle products; rarely fortified
 Margarine; none fortified in a limited market review
 Most yogurts target to adults DO NOT contain D
 Cheese, cottage cheese, butter, ice cream do not contain D
 Fruit juice can’t contain > 100 IU D per serving

Neer, NEJM, 2001
In male and female rats, teriparatide caused an increase in the
incidence of osteosarcoma (a malignant bone tumor), that was
dependent on dose and treatment duration. The effect was
observed at systemic exposures to teriparatide ranging from 3 to
60 times the exposure in humans given a 20-mcg dose. Because
of the uncertain relevance of the rat osteosarcoma finding to
humans, teriparatide should be prescribed only to patients for
whom the potential benefits are considered to outweigh the
potential risk. Teriparatide should not be prescribed for patients
who are at increased baseline risk for osteosarcoma (including
those with PagetÕs disease of bone or unexplained elevations of
alkaline phosphatase, open epiphyses, or prior radiation therapy
involving the skeleton) (see WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS,
Carcinogenesis).

Tashhjian, JBMR, 2002
Appropriate PTH Candidates Include
Declining
BMD on Rx without apparent reason for
bone loss; “osteoporosis treatment failures”
Low BMD and multiple prior low-trauma fractures
Extremely low BMD
Unique low-trauma fractures, e.g., sacral
insufficiency fractures

Osteoporosis Screening
Time to Take Responsibility
“The responsibility to ensure appropriate

with any internist or specialist… The status

unacceptable.

GE Lunar Upgraded their Database
(Fall 2002) to Include NHANES Data
This
is the recommendation of the International
Committee for Standards in Bone Measurement
NHANES III used Hologic Densitometers
Recent equations allow NHANES III use at the
femoral neck and trochanteric regions
GE Lunar incorporated these data into their software

How Does This Affect You/Your

This

will correct this problem
There have been an unknown number of
women inappropriately diagnosed as “low”
with this software problem and will be
confused when you see them
