How weight gain change bone turnover with women in anorexia nervosa - 07/09/16
Résumé |
Objective |
Our objective was to investigate how bone metabolism change through body weight gain in women with anorexia nervosa (AN).
Patients and methods |
This retrospective research at one hospital included 36 women with AN (mean age±SEM, 30±11.3 years, mean BMI±SEM 12.1±1.2kg/m2) treated with our CBT program. We measured their bone mineral density (BMD) of the spine and whole body by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, serum intact N-terminal propeptide of type 1 procollagen (P1NP), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b (TRACP-5b) and sclerostin before and after the treatment.
Results |
At baseline, BMD negatively correlated with amenorrhea duration. Upon completion, the body weight increased 8.8±2.9kg. But they all remained amenorrhea. BMD significantly decreased (posteroanterior spine, –2.7±1.3%; whole body, –1.7±0.5%). Serum intact P1NP levels increased (p<0.001) and TRACP-5b levels decreased (p=.006), whereas sclerostin levels were stable (p=.3) over this treatment. Change in BMD did not correlate with intact P1NP and TRACP-5b levels. However, there was a significant association between change in sclerotin levels and percent change in PA spine BMD (r=0.45, p=.008). There was an inverse relationship between baseline serum sclerostin levels and percent change in whole body BMD (r=–0.54; p=.001).
Conclusions |
This study demonstrates that weight gain induces bone formation and reduces bone resorption in women with severe AN regardless of BMD change. Levels of sclerostin at baseline could be a good predictor of reaction of BMD.
