Is bone equally responsive to calcium and vitamin D intake from food vs. supplements? Use of (41)calcium tracer kinetic model.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Few interventions directly compare equivalent calcium and vitamin D from dairy vs. supplements on the same bone outcomes. The radioisotope calcium-41 ((41)Ca) holds promise as a tracer method to directly measure changes in bone resorption with differing dietary interventions. OBJECTIVE:Using (41)Ca tracer methodology, determine if 4 servings/day of dairy foods results in greater (41)Ca retention than an equivalent amount of calcium and vitamin D from supplements. Secondary objective was to evaluate the time course for the change in (41)Ca retention. METHODS:In this crossover trial, postmenopausal women (n = 12) were dosed orally with 100 nCi of (41)Ca and after a 180 day equilibration period received dairy (4 servings/day of milk or yogurt; ~ 1300 mg calcium, 400 IU cholecalciferol (vitamin D3/day)) or supplement treatments (1200 mg calcium carbonate/day and 400 IU vitamin D3/day) in random order. Treatments lasted 6 weeks separated by a 6 week washout (WO). Calcium was extracted from weekly 24 h urine collections; accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) was used to determine the (41/40)Ca ratio. Primary outcome was change in (41/40)Ca excretion. Secondary outcome was the time course for change in (41)Ca excretion during intervention and WO periods. RESULTS:The (41/40)Ca ratio decreased significantly over time during both treatments; there was no difference between treatments. Both treatments demonstrated a significant retention of (41)Ca within 1-2 weeks (p = 0.0007 and p < 0.001 for dairy and supplements, respectively). WO demonstrated a significant decrease (p = 0.0024) in (41)Ca retention within 1-2 weeks, back to pre-intervention levels. CONCLUSION:These data demonstrate that urinary (41)Ca retention is increased with an increase in calcium and vitamin D intake regardless of the source of calcium, and the increased retention occurs within 1-2 weeks.

Project description:If all adults with osteoporosis in the European Union (EU) and United States (US) used calcium and vitamin D supplements, it could prevent more than 500,000 fractures/year in the EU and more than 300,000/year in the US and save approximately €5.7 billion and US $3.3 billion annually.PurposeEvaluate the cost-effectiveness of calcium/vitamin D supplementation for preventing osteoporotic fractures.MethodsA cost-benefit analysis tool was used to estimate the net cost savings from reduced fracture-related hospital expenses if adults with osteoporosis in the EU and US used calcium/vitamin D supplements. A 14% relative risk reduction of fracture with calcium/vitamin D supplementation from a recent systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized, controlled trials was used as the basis for the benefit estimate. Other model inputs were informed by epidemiologic, clinical, and cost data (2016-2017) obtained via the medical literature or public databases. Analyses estimated the total number of avoided fractures and associated cost savings with supplement use. Net cost benefit was calculated by subtracting the supplements' market costs from those savings.ResultsThe > 30 million persons in the EU and nearly 11 million in US with osteoporosis experience about 3.9 million and 2.3 million fractures/year and have annual hospital costs exceeding €50 billion and $28 billion. If all persons with osteoporosis used calcium and vitamin D supplements, there would be an estimated 544,687 fewer fractures/year in the EU and 323,566 fewer in the US, saving over €6.9 billion and $3.9 billion; the net cost benefit would be €5,710,277,330 and $3,312,236,252, respectively.ConclusionsCalcium and vitamin D supplements are highly cost-effective, and expanded use could considerably reduce fractures and related costs. Although these analyses included individuals aged ≥ 50 years, the observed effects are likely driven by benefits observed in those aged ≥ 65 years.

Project description:BackgroundStable Isotope Resolved Metabolomics (SIRM) is a new biological approach that uses stable isotope tracers such as uniformly [Formula: see text]-enriched glucose ([Formula: see text]-Glc) to trace metabolic pathways or networks at the atomic level in complex biological systems. Non-steady-state kinetic modeling based on SIRM data uses sets of simultaneous ordinary differential equations (ODEs) to quantitatively characterize the dynamic behavior of metabolic networks. It has been increasingly used to understand the regulation of normal metabolism and dysregulation in the development of diseases. However, fitting a kinetic model is challenging because there are usually multiple sets of parameter values that fit the data equally well, especially for large-scale kinetic models. In addition, there is a lack of statistically rigorous methods to compare kinetic model parameters between different experimental groups.ResultsWe propose a new Bayesian statistical framework to enhance parameter estimation and hypothesis testing for non-steady-state kinetic modeling of SIRM data. For estimating kinetic model parameters, we leverage the prior distribution not only to allow incorporation of experts' knowledge but also to provide robust parameter estimation. We also introduce a shrinkage approach for borrowing information across the ensemble of metabolites to stably estimate the variance of an individual isotopomer. In addition, we use a component-wise adaptive Metropolis algorithm with delayed rejection to perform efficient Monte Carlo sampling of the posterior distribution over high-dimensional parameter space. For comparing kinetic model parameters between experimental groups, we propose a new reparameterization method that converts the complex hypothesis testing problem into a more tractable parameter estimation problem. We also propose an inference procedure based on credible interval and credible value. Our method is freely available for academic use at https://github.com/xuzhang0131/MCMCFlux .ConclusionsOur new Bayesian framework provides robust estimation of kinetic model parameters and enables rigorous comparison of model parameters between experimental groups. Simulation studies and application to a lung cancer study demonstrate that our framework performs well for non-steady-state kinetic modeling of SIRM data.
