Abstract: Objective

To investigate the characteristics and relationship of bone metabolism in chronic renal failure patients with 25-hydroxy vitamin D deficiency.

Methods

A total of 80 chronic renal failure patients with 25-hydroxy vitamin D≤37.5 nmol/L were enrolled as study group, and 52 healthy subjects with 25- hydroxy vitamin D>75.0 nmol/L were as enrolled as control group. Their peripheral blood osteocalcin, total procollagen type Ⅰ amino terminal peptide (tP1NP), C-end peptide beta isomerization (β-CTx), parathyroid hormone (PTH), bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and ferrum were determined. The results were analyzed statistically.

Results

Compared to control group, tP1NP, osteocalcin, β -CTx, PTH and phosphorus in study group were higher than those in control group (P<0.01). The other parameters had no statistical significance (P>0.05). 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels and calcium were positively correlated [correlation coefficient (r)=0.33, P<0.05].

Conclusions

The characteristics of bone metabolism in chronic renal failure patients with 25-hydroxy vitamin D deficiency are enhancing the activity of osteoclasts and bone resorption significantly. It is more important to detect bone turnover rate than calcium in patients with chronic renal failure.
