“…In our study, calcium intake in acromegalic patients and control group was in the range described in the healthy adult population in Spain (734.4 to 1260 mg/day) 34 . Acromegalic patients had a slightly higher calcium intake than controls which was in line with Recommended Dietary Allowances in adults designed with the aim of promoting higher bone density and preventing osteoporotic fractures 34 .…”

“…34 Acromegalic patients had a slightly higher calcium intake than controls which was in line with Recommended Dietary Allowances in adults designed with the aim of promoting higher bone density and preventing osteoporotic fractures. 34 These results indicate that an inadequate calcium intake can not be a risk factor for bone loss in our patients with acromegaly.…”

Objective Acromegaly is associated with increased vertebral fracture (VFs) risk not correlated to bone mineral density (BMD). Trabecular bone score (TBS), related to bone microarchitecture, provides information on bone strength. This cross‐sectional study considered the usefulness of TBS and BMD to assess bone status in long‐term controlled acromegalic patients. Design, patients, measurements 26 acromegaly patients (14 female and 12 males) were included in the study. A further 117 subjects were recruited as controls (58 females and 57 males). BMD was measured using dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA), TBS was obtained applying Medimaps software 2.0. Biochemical parameters were determined by standardized techniques. Results 73% of patients with acromegaly exhibited normal lumbar spine (LS) BMD. TBS was normal in 38% of acromegalic patients and partially degraded or degraded in 31% of patients, respectively. No differences were found in LS BMD between acromegalic patients and controls. TBS values were significantly lower in patients with acromegaly (1.27 ± 0.13 vs. 1.35 ± 0.17, p = .01). Postsurgical remission was associated with higher TBS values (1.35 ± 0.10 vs. 1.23 ± 0.13, p = .02) and pituitary radiotherapy treatment with lower TBS values (1.18 ± 0.12 vs. 1.31 ± 0.12, p = .004). On multivariate analysis, age, BMI and LS BMD were predictors of TBS changes in patients with acromegaly (p < .05). Conclusions Patients with long‐term controlled acromegaly can exhibit deterioration of bone microstructure measured with TBS, despite BMD measurement not showing bone loss. Our study suggests that TBS is useful for monitoring the bone status changes in acromegalic patients.

“…The majority of calcium in the human body is found in bones and teeth, where it serves a structural role, while the remainder is located in extracellular fluids, intracellular structures, and cell membranes, where it plays a significant role in vascular, neuromuscular, and endocrine functions [ 69 ]. Romero-Marco et al (2020) reported that adolescents (10–17 years old) in Spain, similar to our study, have a lower calcium intake (males: 808.6–1147.0 mg/day; females: 708.0–949.2 mg/day) than recommended [ 70 ]. A study conducted by Diethelm et al (2014), which included adolescents from ten European cities, showed slightly lower calcium intakes (females 10–13 years: 809.0 mg; 13–15 years: 727.0 mg; and 15–19 years: 661 mg; males 10–12 years: 859.0 mg; 13–15 years: 937.0 mg; and 15–19 years: 857.0 mg) [ 41 ] compared to our study.…”

Background: The SI.Menu study offers the latest data on the dietary intake of Slovenian adolescents aged 10 to 17. The purpose of this study is to comprehensively assess their dietary intake (energy and nutrients) and compare their food intakes with dietary recommendations for healthy and sustainable diets. Methods: The cross-sectional epidemiological dietary study SI.Menu (March 2017–April 2018) was conducted on a representative sample of Slovenian adolescents aged 10 to 17 years (n = 468) (230 males and 238 females). Data on dietary intake were gathered through two non-consecutive 24 h recalls, in line with the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) EU Menu methodology. The repeated 24 h Dietary Recall (HDR) and Food Propensity Questionnaire (FPQ) data were combined to determine the usual intakes of nutrients and food groups, using the Multiple Source Method (MSM) program. Results: Adolescents’ diets significantly deviate from dietary recommendations, lacking vegetables, milk and dairy products, nuts and seeds, legumes, and water, while containing excessive meat (especially red meat) and high-sugar foods. This results in insufficient intake of dietary fibre, and nutrients such as vitamin D, folate, and calcium. Conclusions: The dietary intake of Slovenian adolescents does not meet healthy and sustainable diet recommendations. This study provides an important insight into the dietary habits of Slovenian adolescents that could be useful for future public health strategies.

“…Despite the great importance of calcium during the process of growth and pubertal development, adolescents in many regions of the world have shown a low intake of this mineral. Among Spanish adolescents Romero-Marco P et al [17] found mean levels of calcium intake around 640 mg/day. Similar results were reported by Palacios C et al [18] in a review study, highlighting several countries such as Brazil, Colombia, Canada, China, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, and Mexico, where adolescents also ingested lower daily amounts of calcium than recommended.…”

Adolescence is a phase of life characterized by major physical, emotional, social, and cultural changes. In this period, the puberty process stands out, and due to the action of several hormones, great changes are observed in body structure. For all these changes to occur, it is necessary for adolescents to consume nutrients in sufficient quantity and quality to meet the body's demands. One of the most important micronutrients at this stage of life is calcium, involved in several metabolic and structural processes, and which must be ingested daily through an adequate diet. This article discusses the role of calcium in adolescent growth and development, considering metabolic and clinical characteristics, highlighting the importance of this micronutrient for the current and future health of adolescents.
