摘要: Bone disease with osteoporosis and osteomalacia are common in sickle cell (SCD). Some patients have vitamin D deficiency low bone mineral density (BMD). The role of calcium supplementation to restore health SCD has not been well studied. In 14 adults SCD, we measured 25(OH)D (25-hydroxyvitamin D) BMD at the femoral neck, lumbar spine, distal third ulna plus radius, along markers resorption (CTx; C-terminal component pro-collagen type I) formation (osteocalcin) before after 12 months D(2) carbonate treatment. Pretreatment, all were deficient a mean level 11.6 [corrected] +/- 4 ng/ml, had spine (L-spine), 0.87 0.11 g/cm(2) (mean Z-score -2.6 3 0.71 SD T score -2.31 0.75 SD), 0.8 0.18 -1.36 0.84, T-score -1.14 0.75), radius ulna, 0.6 0.17 -1.18 0.79, -1.01 0.74) elevated CTx (0.87 0.5 ng/ml) osteocalcin levels (12.3 3.7 ng/mul). After treatment, corrected their (34.6 11 (P < 0.001) 3.6% 3.9% increase L-spine = 0.009), 4.6% 8.5% neck 0.05) 6.5% 12.6% 0.09). CTx, osteocalcin, PTH(i) unchanged. Treatment adult can normal improve BMD, but, remained Screening for seems warranted.
