Bone loss after kidney transplantation is highly variable. This study found resolution of high bone turnover, as reflected by decreasing bone turnover markers, associated with BMD gain, while increasing bone turnover markers associated with bone loss. https://t.co/bmgIQpkpMi

@DRJSSURI @DrAmbrishMithal @iofbonehealth @idrlakshmi @EsceoAsbl @ISBMRTweets @IndiaESI The use of the ratio between 24,25(OH)2D and 25(OH)D to calculate the vitamin D metabolite ratio (VMR) to evaluate the functional vitamin D deficiency

[Dr Ambrish Mithal @DrAmbrishMithal]

Vitamin D deficiency is established by measuring blood level of 25-OH-D.
Is 25-OH-D alone a good marker of #vitD status?
The future may see a major shift in our approach.
Prof Etienne Cavalier of Belgium recd the Olof Johnell Science Award at the World Osteoporosis Congress on Friday for his pioneering work on #VitaminD measurement

@MichalLaurent11 @brunovellas Yes, we already propose that in routine…

@Dr_Boabrahamsen @MichalLaurent11 @EvenepoelPieter @larsfolkestad @RKJainMD @sfeirjad @elena_tsourdi @FayPapaioanMD @BotcentrumLUMC I missed the sex info. CTX and PINP (especially if Roche) are rather low for a stage IV CKD. What strikes me is the sharp increase of ALP occurred in only 1 month. No idea of the context, but could bone metastases be envisaged? I still believe in transient ALP. Need fractions

[Etienne Cavalier @etiennecavalier]

@MichalLaurent11 @Dr_Boabrahamsen @EvenepoelPieter @larsfolkestad @RKJainMD @sfeirjad @elena_tsourdi @FayPapaioanMD @BotcentrumLUMC …or if the lab still has the sample, check ALP electrophoresis on that one.

@MichalLaurent11 @Dr_Boabrahamsen @EvenepoelPieter @larsfolkestad @RKJainMD @sfeirjad @elena_tsourdi @FayPapaioanMD @BotcentrumLUMC We can of course suspect a lab issue but I do not see why. Must be of bone origin (hepatic tests are normal)…or transient (much more frequent in children but I have already seen that in adults). Check in a couple of weeks with an ALP electrophoresis….
