Details and patient eligibility

About

There are two major goals of this project:

  1. Comparison of DXA and QCT for diagnosis of bone loss in CKD-5 patients and determination of the prevalence of low bone turnover in CKD-5 patients with bone loss.
  2. Identification of the optimal combination of noninvasive tests for definition of the turnover component of ROD.

Inclusion criteria

  • Aged 18 years or older;
  • Chronic maintenance dialysis of at least 3 months' duration;
  • Mental competence;
  • Willingness to participate in the study;
  • Calcidiol levels within normal range.

Exclusion criteria

  • Pregnancy;
  • Systemic illnesses or organ diseases that may affect bone (except type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus);
  • Clinical condition that may limit study participation (e.g., unstable angina, respiratory distress, infections).
  • Chronic alcoholism and/or drug addiction;
  • Participation in a study of an investigational drug during the past 90 days;
  • Allergy to tetracycline.
  • Planning to move out of the area within 2 years of the study;
  • On active transplant list;
  • Treatment within last 6 months with drugs that may affect bone metabolism (except for treatment with calcitriol, vitamin D analogs and/or calcimimetics).
  • Calcidiol level below the normal range. The current routine clinical practice in our dialysis clinics is to check calcidiol status twice yearly and supplement with vitamin D according to serum calcidiol levels. It is therefore unlikely that a substantial number of patients will be excluded due to this exclusion criterion.
