Full textThe adipose and bone tissue has an intimate relationship, from the common origin in stromal stem cells derived from the bone marrow. It is known that body weight has a close correlation with bone mass in humans. However, it is still unclear which component of body weight has a greater influence on bone mass gain and adiposity in the bone marrow, since both individuals with low weight and obese have high fracture rates. The objective of this study was to compare obese and eutrophic children and adolescents in relation to bone composition, bone marrow adiposity in the lumbar spine (L3), expression of IGF type 1 receptor (IGF1R) and serum concentrations of IGF-I and to seek correlation between these variables. For this, children and adolescents between 10 and 17 years old were divided into control and obese groups. These groups were submitted to anthropometric evaluation, bone densitometry of the lumbar spine and total body and lumbar spine and total abdominal magnetic resonance, in addition to serum levels of biochemical and hormonal parameters. The patients in the obese group had a positive association of bone mineral density with both fat mass and lean mass while the control group showed a positive association of bone mineral density with fat mass only. There was no difference between the groups regarding bone marrow adiposity, nor regarding IGF-I, IGFBP3 and IGF1R gene expression.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and osteoposes are chronic diseases with great socioeconomic consequences, mainly due to the late complications and consequent disabilities. The potential effects of DM on bone metabolism remain a very conroversial issue, and disagreement exists with regard to the clinical implications of diabetic osteopenia and the mechanism of its ocurrence. The issue is further complicated by the contribuicion of the especific factors, such as duration of disease an dthe degree of metabolic control. The objective of this study is to identify the osteopathy in children and adolescents with DM 1 assisted in the hospital of pediatrics, UFRN, through biochemical markers of bone and mineral metabolism and the extent of bone mineral density. The study was composed by 74 diabetics type 1 patients (DM1) of both gender and aged 6 to 20 yars. Normoglic?mic group was composed by 97 healthy subjects of both genders, which showed the same age range of DM1, in addition to same socioeconomic class. These individuals qere students from the networks of public education in the city of Natal-RN, randomly invited to paticipate in our study. Both groups DM1 and NG were divided intofour subgroups, according to the classification of tanner , T1, T2, T3, T4 for achieving a benchmark. Diabetic individuals showed up with a poor glycemic control. the group DN1 T4 showed an incresead value for total protein, albumin, urea and microalbumiuria are predictors of grumelura injury in DM1 patients . The total alkaline phosphatase activitywas kept on high levels for both groups because they are in a stature development age. For osteocalcin there were decreased levels for groups Dm1 T1, T2, and T3 when compared to their NG (s), suggesting that this decrease could be associated with reduction in the number and/or differentiation os osteoblasts thereby contributing to reducing bone formation. There were no changes in the activity of TRAP. The serum concentrations of total and ionized calcium, phosphorus and magnesium were included within the RV. It was observed that the BMD (Z- SCORE ) has always been within the RV for both groups, despite to DM1 T4. Taking all together, our results support the hypothesis that children and adolescents with type 1 DM present the risk in the long run to suffer a reduction in the bone mass, associated to poor glicemic control and disease duration. It could limit the bone growth and increase the probality of development of osteopenia, as well as other complications surch as retinopathy and renal failure
Diabetes mellitus (DM) a osteoporose s?o doen?as cr?nicas com grandes consequ?ncias socioecon?micas, sobretudo devido ? complica??es tardias e consequente desabilidades. Os efeitos potenciais do DM no metabolismo ?sseo continua a ser uma quest?o controversa, e ainda n?o existe um consenso no que diz respeito ?s implica??es cl?nicas da osteopenia diab?tica e os mecanismos da sua ocorr?ncia. Entretanto, a contribui??o de fatores espec?ficos, tais como a dura??o da doen?a e o grau de controle metab?lico tem sido muito discutidos. O objetivo do presente estudo foi identificar precocemente a osteopatia diab?tica em crian?as e adolescentes com DM 1 atendidos no Hospital de Pediatria da UFRN atrav?s de marcadores bioqu?micos do metabolismo mineral e ?sseo, marcadores da fun??o renal e da medida da densidade mineral ?ssea (DXA; Z-score L1-L4) . O estudo foi constitu?do por uma amostra de 74 pacientes diab?ticos tipo 1 (DM1) de ambos os sexos, com faixa et?ria entre 6 a 20 anos. O grupo normoglic?mico (NG) foi constitu?do por 97 indiv?duos saud?veis, de ambos os sexos, os quais apresentaram a mesma faixa et?ria do DM1, al?m de compreenderem a mesma classe socioecon?mica. Estes indiv?duos eram alunos de escolas da rede p?blica de ensino da cidade de Natal-RN, convidados aleatoriamente a participar do nosso estudo. Tanto o grupo DM1 quanto o NG foram divididos em quatro subgrupos, de acordo com a Classifica??o de Tanner, T1, T2, T3, T4, para viabilizar uma avalia??o comparativa. Os indiv?duos diab?ticos apresentaram um controle glic?mico insatisfat?rio, com valores de glicemia e HbA1C significativamente superiores aos obtidos para os NG. O grupo DM1 T4 apresentou valores aumentados de prote?nas totais, albumina, ur?ia e microalbumin?ria, sugerindo assim um in?cio de comprometimento renal, visto que os valores elevados de microalbumin?ria s?o preditores de les?o glomerular em pacientes DM1. A atividade da fosfatase alcalina total mostrou-se acima dos VR nos grupos DM1 e NG por estes estarem numa faixa et?ria de desenvolvimento estatural. Observa-se uma diminui??o da concentra??o de osteocalcina para os grupos DM1 T1, T2 e T3 quando comparados aos respectivos NG (s), sugerindo que esta diminui??o estaria associada a diminui??o do n?mero e/ou da diferencia??o dos osteoblastos no seu est?gio final de matura??o, contribuindo consequentemente para a redu??o da forma??o ?ssea. N?o foram observadas altera??es na atividade da TRAP. As concentra??es s?ricas de c?lcio total e ionizado, f?sforo e magn?sio estavam compreendidos dentro dos VR, mas os grupos diab?ticos apresentaram hipozincemia e hiperzinc?ria. A DMO (Z-score L1-L4; DXA) esteve sempre dentro dos VR para os grupos estudados, entretanto os grupos DM1 apresentaram sempre valores abaixo do seu respectivo NG, alca?ando uma diferen?a significativa para DM1 T4. O conjunto de resultados obtidos indicam que o baixo controle glic?mico e o tempo de doen?a representaram fatores de risco importantes para o desenvolvimento precoce da osteopenia diab?tica, bem como para o comprometimento renal e sinais de retinopatia.

Full textReduced rates of Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) during adolescence have been associated to a state of health less apt in adulthood, to a greater involvement in risk behaviors and to a sedentary lifestyle. This study’s general objective is to realize if the Physical Activity and Maturation are associated with the perception of HRQoL (measured by KIDSCREEN-52) in 751 children, 395 boys and 356 girls, aged between 11 and 17 years old. This research also explores the influence that chronological age, bone age and volume of Physical Activity may have on this possible association. The results suggest that: 1) The general index of the HRQoL is independent of chronological age, level of maturity and physical activity; 2) The dimension “Physical Well-being” seems to be influenced by the physical activity levels and by the maturational state in both genders; 3) The dimensions “Moods and Emotions” is influenced by maturational state, in girls. In conclusion, maturation and physical activity do not influence the overall index of HRQoL. However the dimension “Physical Well-being” seems to be influenced by the physical activity group to which children and adolescents belong, in both genders; and maturation seems to be particularly important in the perception of this dimension for girls.
