Calcium and Vitamin D Supplementation in Boys with Risperidone-Induced Hyperprolactinemia: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Pilot Study.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:The chronic use of antipsychotics has been associated with impaired bone mineralization, partially mediated by hyperprolactinemia. We examined if calcium and vitamin D supplementation promote bone mineral accrual in boys with risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia. METHODS:Between February 2009 and November 2013, medically healthy, 5- to 17-year-old boys were enrolled in a 36-week double-blind, placebo-controlled study, examining the skeletal effects of supplementation with 1250?mg calcium carbonate and 400 IU of vitamin D3 in risperidone-induced hyperprolactinemia. Anthropometric, dietary, physical activity, and psychiatric assessments were conducted at baseline and week 18 and 36. Plasma prolactin and vitamin D concentrations were measured at baseline and week 36. Total body less head bone mineral content (BMC) and radius trabecular bone mineral density (BMD) were measured at baseline, week 18, and week 36, using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and peripheral quantitative computed tomography, respectively. Linear mixed-effects regression analysis examined the longitudinal effect of treatment on skeletal outcomes. RESULTS:Forty-seven boys (mean age: 11.0?±?2.6 years) were randomized and 38 completed the study. At study entry, the average dietary calcium intake was below the recommended limit, but the average vitamin D concentration was normal. Calcium and vitamin D supplementation failed to significantly increase BMC or trabecular BMD. It also failed to affect several other skeletal and anthropometric outcomes, including plasma vitamin D concentration. CONCLUSIONS:In this 9-month long pilot study, supplementation with a modest dose of calcium and vitamin D did not increase bone mass accrual in risperidone-treated boys with hyperprolactinemia. Alternative approaches should be investigated to optimize bone health in this population to prevent future morbidity and premature mortality. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00799383.

Project description:To examine whether combined vitamin D and calcium supplementation improves insulin sensitivity, insulin secretion, ?-cell function, inflammation and metabolic markers.6-month randomized, placebo-controlled trial.Ninety-five adults with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] ?55 nmol/L at risk of type 2 diabetes (with prediabetes or an AUSDRISK score ?15) were randomized. Analyses included participants who completed the baseline and final visits (treatment n?=?35; placebo n?=?45).Daily calcium carbonate (1,200 mg) and cholecalciferol [2,000-6,000 IU to target 25(OH)D >75 nmol/L] or matching placebos for 6 months.Insulin sensitivity (HOMA2%S, Matsuda index), insulin secretion (insulinogenic index, area under the curve (AUC) for C-peptide) and ?-cell function (Matsuda index x AUC for C-peptide) derived from a 75 g 2-h OGTT; anthropometry; blood pressure; lipid profile; hs-CRP; TNF-?; IL-6; adiponectin; total and undercarboxylated osteocalcin.Participants were middle-aged adults (mean age 54 years; 69% Europid) at risk of type 2 diabetes (48% with prediabetes). Compliance was >80% for calcium and vitamin D. Mean serum 25(OH)D concentration increased from 48 to 95 nmol/L in the treatment group (91% achieved >75 nmol/L), but remained unchanged in controls. There were no significant changes in insulin sensitivity, insulin secretion and ?-cell function, or in inflammatory and metabolic markers between or within the groups, before or after adjustment for potential confounders including waist circumference and season of recruitment. In a post hoc analysis restricted to participants with prediabetes, a significant beneficial effect of vitamin D and calcium supplementation on insulin sensitivity (HOMA%S and Matsuda) was observed.Daily vitamin D and calcium supplementation for 6 months may not change OGTT-derived measures of insulin sensitivity, insulin secretion and ?-cell function in multi-ethnic adults with low vitamin D status at risk of type 2 diabetes. However, in participants with prediabetes, supplementation with vitamin D and calcium may improve insulin sensitivity.Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry ACTRN12609000043235.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with multiple diseases, but the causal relevance and underlying processes are not fully understood. Elucidating the mechanisms of action of drug treatments in humans is challenging, but application of functional genomic approaches in randomized trials may afford an opportunity to systematically assess molecular responses. METHODS:In the Biochemical Efficacy and Safety Trial of Vitamin D (BEST-D), a double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-finding, randomized clinical trial, 305 community-dwelling individuals aged over 65?years were randomly allocated to treatment with vitamin D3 4000?IU, 2000?IU or placebo daily for 12?months. Genome-wide genotypes at baseline, and transcriptome and plasma levels of cytokines (IFN-?, IL-10, IL-8, IL-6 and TNF-?) at baseline and after 12?months, were measured. The trial had >90% power to detect 1.2-fold changes in gene expression. FINDINGS:Allocation to vitamin D for 12-months was associated with 2-fold higher plasma levels of 25-hydroxy-vitamin D (25[OH]D, 4000?IU regimen), but had no significant effect on whole-blood gene expression (FDR?<?5%) or on plasma levels of cytokines compared with placebo. In pre-specified analysis, rs7041 (intron variant, GC) had a significant effect on circulating levels of 25(OH)D in the low dose, but not in the placebo or high dose vitamin D regimen. A gene expression quantitative trait locus analysis (eQTL) demonstrated evidence of 31,568 cis-eQTLs (unique SNP-probe pairs) among individuals at baseline and 34,254 after supplementation for 12?months (any dose). No significant associations involving vitamin D supplementation response eQTLs were found. INTERPRETATION:We performed a comprehensive functional genomics and molecular analysis of vitamin D supplementation in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Although this study was limited to mostly Caucasian individuals aged over 65?years, the results differ from many previous studies and do not support a strong effect of vitamin D on long-term transcriptomic changes in blood or on plasma cytokine levels. The trial demonstrates the feasibility of applying functional genomic and genetic approaches in randomized trials to assess molecular and individual level responses. KEY RESULT:Supplementation with high-dose vitamin D in older people for 12?months in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial had no significant effect on gene expression or on plasma concentrations of selected cytokines. TRIAL REGISTRATION:SRCTN registry (Number 07034656) and the European Clinical Trials Database (EudraCT Number 2011-005763-24).

Project description:AimTo investigate the effect of normalizing vitamin B12 (B12) levels with oral B12 (methylcobalamin) 1000 ?g/day for one year in patients with diabetic neuropathy (DN).Patients and methodsIn this prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 90 patients with type 2 diabetes on metformin for at least four years and both peripheral and autonomic DN were randomized to an active treatment group (n = 44) receiving B12 and a control group (n = 46) receiving a placebo. All patients had B12 levels less than 400 pmol/L. Subjects underwent measurements of sural nerve conduction velocity (SNCV), sural nerve action potential (amplitude) (SNAP), and vibration perception threshold (VPT), and they performed cardiovascular autonomic reflex tests (CARTs: mean circular resultant (MCR), Valsalva test, postural index, and orthostatic hypotension). Sudomotor function was assessed with the SUDOSCAN that measures electrochemical skin conductance in hands and feet (ESCH and ESCF, respectively). We also used the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument Questionnaire and Examination (MNSIQ and MNSIE, respectively) and questionnaires to evaluate quality of life (QoL) and level of pain (pain score).ResultsB12 levels increased from 232.0 ± 71.8 at baseline to 776.7 ± 242.3 pmol/L at follow-up, p < 0.0001, in the active group but not in the control group. VPT, MNSIQ, QoL, pain score, SNCV, SNAP, and ESCF significantly improved in the active group (p < 0.001, p = 0.002, p < 0.0001, p < 0.000, p < 0.0001, p < 0.0001, and p = 0.014, respectively), whereas CARTS and MNSIE improved but not significantly. MCR, MNSIQ, SNCV, SNAP, and pain score significantly deteriorated in the control group (p = 0.025, p = 0.017, p = 0.045, p < 0.0001, and p < 0.0001, respectively).ConclusionsThe treatment of patients with DN with 1 mg of oral methylcobalamin for twelve months increased plasma B12 levels and improved all neurophysiological parameters, sudomotor function, pain score, and QoL, but it did not improve CARTS and MNSIE.
