: Despite the high prevalence of gallstone disease (GSD), the shared risk factors of GSD and osteoporosis, and the known association between hip fracture and hepatobiliary diseases, the association between hip fracture and GSD is not currently clear. Therefore, we performed a nationwide population-based study to investigate the association between GSD and hip fracture to determine the impact of cholecystectomy on the risk of fracture.: In this study, we assessed all subjects in the longitudinal health insurance database (LHID) between 2000 and 2011, excluding those subjects aged >20 years old and those with a previous history of hip fracture (ICD-9-CM 820). Among those that were included, subjects with at least two or more outpatient visits or with one record of hospitalization under the coding of GSD (ICD-9-CM code: 574) were allocated to the GSD cohort. The remaining subjects were designated to the control cohort. All participants were followed till the onset of hip fracture, withdrawal from the NHI, or the end of 2013.: We found that the cumulative incidence of hip fracture was higher in the GSD cohort than in the control cohort (log-rank test: p-value < 0.01). After adjustment, the GSD patients had a 1.21-fold risk of hip fracture compared to control subjects (aHR = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.21-1.30). Comparison between those subjects without GSD and those without cholecystectomy revealed that the risk of hip fracture was higher among GSD patients that had not undergone cholecystectomy (aHR = 1.17, 95% CI = 1.06-1.29) or those that had undergone cholecystectomy (aHR = 1.22, 95% CI = 1.06-1.41).: Based upon these results, we concluded that GSD was associated with an increased risk of hip fracture regardless of whether the patient had undergone cholecystectomy.

BACKGROUND:Osteopontin (OPN) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine which is expressed in various tissues. It participates in the bone remodeling process and stimulates bone resorption by osteoclasts. It is also a core protein of cholesterol gallstones. We hypothesized osteoporotic patients might have higher risk in developing gallstones and conducted a population-based study to examine the risk of developing gallstone in osteoporotic patients in Taiwan. METHODS:A total of 1,638 patients diagnosed with osteoporosis between 2003 and 2005 were identified in the National Health Insurance Research Database. A comparison cohort without osteoporosis (n =6,552) was randomly matched to each osteoporosis patient at a ratio of 4: 1 based on age and sex. A Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis was performed to evaluate the 5-year gallstone-free survival rates for the 2 cohorts. RESULTS:During the 5-year follow-up period, 114 and 311 cases of gallstone occurred in the osteoporosis and comparison cohorts, respectively. After adjusting for the confounders, the Cox regression analysis of the risk of gallstone in the osteoporosis and comparison cohorts yielded a hazard ratio of 1.35 (95% confidence interval: 1.07 - 1.69; p < 0 .01). CONCLUSION:Patients with osteoporosis in Taiwan have a higher risk of developing gallstone than the general population.

[New Progress in Longitudinal Research on the Risk Factors for Cholelithiasis].
Sichuan da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Sichuan University. Medical science edition
Cholelithiasis is a common disease of the digestive system. The risk factors for cholelithiasis have been reported and summarized many times in the published literature, which primarily focused on cross-sectional studies. Due to the inherent limitations of the study design, the reported findings still need to be validated in additional longitudinal studies. Moreover, a number of new risk factors for cholelithiasis have been identified in recent years, such as bariatric surgery, hepatitis B virus infection, hepatitis C virus infection, kidney stones, colectomy, osteoporosis, etc. These new findings have not yet been included in published reviews. Herein, we reviewed the 101 cholelithiasis-associated risk factors identified through research based on longitudinal investigations, including cohort studies, randomized controlled trials, and nested case control studies. The risk factors associated with the pathogenesis of cholelithiasis were categorized as unmodifiable and modifiable factors. The unmodifiable factors consist of age, sex, race, and family history, while the modifiable factors include 37 biological environmental factors, 25 socioenvironmental factors, and 35 physiochemical environmental factors. This study provides thorough and comprehensive ideas for research concerning the pathogenesis of cholelithiasis, supplying the basis for identifying high-risk groups and formulating relevant prevention strategies.

BACKGROUND & AIMS:Patients with chronic pancreatitis may be at high risk for osteoporosis and osteopenia. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the prevalence of osteoporosis and osteopenia in patients with chronic pancreatitis. METHODS:Articles were identified from MEDLINE, EMBASE, and SCOPUS databases (through October 2012) and a manual search of the literature. The primary outcome measure was bone density, measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (T-score or Z-score). When available, data on the prevalence of osteopenia, bone mineral density, and bone mineral content also were recorded. RESULTS:Ten studies including 513 patients were eligible for inclusion. Based on a random-effects model, the pooled prevalence rate for osteoporosis among patients with chronic pancreatitis was 23.4% (95% confidence interval, 16.6-32.0). The pooled prevalence for osteopenia was 39.8% (95% confidence interval, 29.1-51.6). The pooled prevalence rate for either osteoporosis or osteopenia was 65% (95% confidence interval, 54.7-74.0). CONCLUSIONS:Based on meta-analysis, almost 1 of 4 patients with chronic pancreatitis have osteoporosis, and almost two-thirds of patients have either osteoporosis or osteopenia. Osteoporosis and osteopenia are underappreciated sources of morbidity in patients with chronic pancreatitis. Bone health management guidelines are urgently required in patients with chronic pancreatitis.

Causal association of NAFLD with osteoporosis, fracture and falling risk: a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study.
Frontiers in endocrinology
Introduction:The causal association between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and osteoporosis remains controversial in previous epidemiological studies. We employed a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian analysis to explore the causal relationship between NAFLD and osteoporosis. Method:The NAFLD instrumental variables (IVs) were obtained from a large Genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis dataset of European descent. Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were used to estimate the causal effect of NAFLD on osteoporosis, fracture, and fall. Reverse Mendelian randomization analysis was conducted to estimate the causal effect of osteoporosis on NAFLD. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was the primary analysis in this analysis. We used the MR-Egger method to determine horizontal pleiotropic. The heterogeneity effect of IVs was detected by MR-Egger and IVW analyses. Results:Five SNPs (rs2980854, rs429358, rs1040196, rs738409, and rs5764430) were chosen as IVs for NAFLD. In forward MR analysis, the IVW-random effect indicated the causal effect of NAFLD on osteoporosis (OR= 1.0021, 95% CI: 1.0006-1.0037, = 0.007) but not on fracture (OR= 1.0016, 95% CI: 0.998-1.0053, = 0.389) and fall (OR= 0.9912, 95% CI: 0.9412-1.0440, = 0.740). Furthermore, the reverse Mendelian randomization did not support a causal effect of osteoporosis on NAFLD (OR= 1.0002, 95% CI: 0.9997-1.0007, = 0.231). No horizontal pleiotropic was detected in all MR analyses. Conclusions:The results of this study indicate a causal association between NAFLD and osteoporosis. NAFLD patients have a higher risk of osteoporosis but not fracture and falling risk. In addition, our results do not support a causal effect of osteoporosis on NAFLD.

Causal effects of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease on osteoporosis: a Mendelian randomization study.
Frontiers in endocrinology
Background:Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by compromised bone strength leading to an increased risk of fracture. There is an ongoing debate on whether non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an active contributor or an innocent bystander in the pathogenesis of OP. The aim of this study was to assess the causal association between NAFLD and OP. Methods:We performed two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses to investigate the causal association between genetically predicted NAFLD [i.e., imaging-based liver fat content (LFC), chronically elevated serum alanine aminotransferase (cALT) and biopsy-confirmed NAFLD] and risk of OP. The inverse variant weighted method was performed as main analysis to obtain the causal estimates. Results:Imaging-based LFC and biopsy-confirmed NAFLD demonstrated a suggestive causal association with OP ([odds ratio (OR): 1.003, 95% CI: 1.001-1.004, P < 0.001; OR: 1.001, 95% CI: 1.000-1.002, P = 0.031]). The association between cALT and OP showed a similar direction, but was not statistically significant (OR: 1.001, 95% CI: 1.000-1.002, P = 0.079). Repeated analyses after exclusion of genes associated with confounding factors showed consistent results. Sensitivity analysis indicated low heterogeneity, high reliability and low pleiotropy of the causal estimates. Conclusion:The two-sample MR analyses suggest a causal association between genetically predicted NAFLD and OP.

Relationship between prevalence and risk of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fracture with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Osteoporosis international : a journal established as result of cooperation between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between prevalence and risks of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fracture and NAFLD. Patients with NAFLD should be monitored regularly for bone mineral density and bone metabolism indicators to prevent osteoporosis or osteoporotic fractures. OBJECTIVES:The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate the relationship between prevalence and risks of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fracture and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS:Five databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus and Cochrane Library, were searched since the conception of these databases until December 2021. The cohort studies, cross-sectional analyses or case-control studies evaluating the relationship between osteoporosis or osteoporotic fracture and NAFLD were retrieved from these databases. Relevant data were extracted from the included studies, and a meta-analysis was performed. RESULTS:A total of seven studies were included. The prevalence of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fractures was higher in the NAFLD group than in the non-NAFLD group [OR = 1.17, 95%CI(1.04,1.31)], while the prevalence of osteoporosis was higher in the NAFLD group than in the non-NAFLD group [OR = 1.46, 95%CI (1.21,1.77) and OR = 1.48, 95%CI (1.31,1.68), respectively] in men and women. The risk of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fractures was higher in the NAFLD group than in the non-NAFLD group [OR = 1.33,95%CI (1.24,1.44) and OR = 1.57,95%CI (1.08,2.29), respectively]. The risk of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fractures was higher in male and female NAFLD groups than that in the non-NAFLD group [OR = 1.29, 95%CI(1.14,1.47) and OR = 1.36, 95%CI (1.25,1.48), respectively]. After parameter adjustment, the risk of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fracture was higher in the male NAFLD group than in the non-NAFLD group [OR = 2.10, 95%CI(1.36,3.25)], while no significant difference was found among women [OR = 1.13, 95%CI (0.86,1.48)]. CONCLUSIONS:The prevalence and risk of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fractures were significantly associated with NAFLD in men and women. TRIAL REGISTRATION:PROSPERO 2022 CRD42022304708.

ESPEN guideline on clinical nutrition in acute and chronic pancreatitis.
Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
Both acute and chronic pancreatitis are frequent diseases of the pancreas, which, despite being of benign nature, are related to a significant risk of malnutrition and may require nutritional support. Acute necrotizing pancreatitis is encountered in 20% of patients with acute pancreatitis, is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, and may require artificial nutrition by enteral or parenteral route, as well as additional endoscopic, radiological or surgical interventions. Chronic pancreatitis represents a chronic inflammation of the pancreatic gland with development of fibrosis. Abdominal pain leading to decreased oral intake, as well as exocrine and endocrine failure are frequent complications of the disease. All of the above represent risk factors related to malnutrition. Therefore, patients with chronic pancreatitis should be considered at risk, screened and supplemented accordingly. Moreover, osteoporosis and increased facture risk should be acknowledged in patients with chronic pancreatitis, and preventive measures should be considered.

A Pilot Study to Assess Opportunistic Use of CT-Scan for Osteoporosis Screening in Chronic Pancreatitis.
Frontiers in physiology
CT scans are commonly performed in patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP). Osteopathy and fractures are recognized in CP but no osteoporosis screening guidelines are recommended. "Opportunistic" CT scan-derived bone density thresholds are assessed for identifying osteoporosis in CP. Retrospective pilot cohort study. CP subjects who had CT scans and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) within 1 year were included. CT-derived bone density was measured at the L1 level. Pearson's correlation was performed between age and CT-derived bone density in Hounsfield unit (HU). Univariate analysis using HU to identify osteoporosis was performed at various thresholds of bone density. The discriminatory ability of the model was evaluated with the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). Several HU thresholds were tested. Twenty-seven CP subjects were included, of whom 11 had normal bone density, 12 osteopenia, and four osteoporosis on DXA. The mean age was 59.9 years (SD 13.0). There was a negative correlation of age with HU (r = -0.519, = 0.006). CT-derived bone density predicted DXA-based osteoporosis in the univariable analysis (Odds Ratio (OR) = 0.97 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 0.94-1.00, = 0.03). HU thresholds were tested. A threshold of 106 HU maximized the accuracy (AUC of 0.870). CT scan may be repurposed for "opportunistic" screening to rule out osteoporosis in CP. A larger study is warranted to confirm these results.

Risk of osteopaenia, osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures in patients with chronic pancreatitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND & AIMS:Chronic pancreatitis results in irreversible pancreatic dysfunction and malnutrition which, alongside excess alcohol intake, can increase the risk of low bone density. Osteoporosis increases the risk of fractures and chronic bone pain, reduces quality of life, and poses considerable costs to healthcare. Despite this, there remains a paucity of literature evaluating bone health in this patient population. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the prevalences of osteopaenia, osteoporosis and fractures in patients with chronic pancreatitis. METHODS:A comprehensive search of Medline, Embase, ClinicalTrials.gov, and CENTRAL databases was undertaken to identify eligible studies from January 2000 to May 2022. The prevalences of osteopenia, osteoporosis and fragility fractures were extracted from the included studies. Where available, a subgroup analysis was performed to compare the likelihood of developing osteoporosis in patients with chronic pancreatitis compared with control. RESULTS:Nineteen studies reporting on 2,027,764 participants (20,460 with chronic pancreatitis and 2,007,304 controls) were included. The pooled prevalence of osteoporosis was 19% (95% CI 13 to 26%; I = 94%). Patients with chronic pancreatitis were more likely to have osteoporosis when compared with those in the control group (OR 2.80, 95% CI 1.86 to 4.21; I = 21%). The prevalences of osteopaenia and fractures in patients with chronic pancreatitis were 37% (95% CI 31 to 44%; I = 81%) and 14% (95% CI 7 to 22%; I = 99%) respectively. CONCLUSION:The prevalences of osteopenia and osteoporosis are significant in patients with chronic pancreatitis and can increase the risk of developing fractures. Further population-based studies are required to evaluate the disease burden of osteoporotic fractures and associated morbidity and mortality in chronic pancreatitis.
