Bone Mineral Density and Bone Acquisition in Children and Young Adults with Cystic Fibrosis: A Follow-up Study

Abstract: Bone deficit is present in patients with CF who have never received steroid treatment. Delay of puberty, chronic inflammation, or genetic susceptibility might be responsible for this phenomenon which was found in patients who had never received steroids and who were in relatively good clinical state.

“…Their results suggest that reduced BMD in CF appears to have a genetic component, independent of the disease severity and nutritional deficits. This fascinating observation is in line with the results found by our group [2]. It was found that healthy mothers of CF children (who are obligate heterozygous carriers of a CFTR mutation) have lower than normal BMD values.…”

“…Data were then re-analysed with the purpose of looking into the reproducibility of sputum neutrophilia between the two inhaled challenges, treating the effects of the single-dose salmeterol as no more than placebo [2]. Our findings showed that following the first LPS challenge, the mean total sputum cell counts increased by 31.…”

“…Se ha demostrado además una prevalencia creciente de enfermedad ósea en los adultos con FQ, caracterizada x osteopenia en el 50-75% de ellos y fracturas costales o de aplastamiento vertebral 27 , de manera que actualmente se recomienda control anual con densitometría ósea a partir de los 10 años de edad 12,28 . Otros factores no nutricionales como la susceptibilidad genética, retraso puberal o estado inflamatorio participan en su génesis multifactorial 29 . La vitamina K es cofactor de la osificación y junto al déficit de vitamina D puede tener un rol importante en la osteopenia asociada a FQ 30 .…”
