| Popis: | Background Markers of bone metabolism (MBM) play an important role in fracture evaluation, and changes have been associated with increased fracture risk. The purpose of the present study was to describe changes in MBM in premenopausal women with distal radial fractures. Methods Premenopausal women with distal radial fractures (n = 34) and without fractures (controls) (n = 39) were recruited. Serum MBM in patients with distal radial fractures were obtained at the time of the initial presentation, 6 weeks, and 3, 6, and 12 months. MBM included 25(OH) vitamin D, PTH, osteocalcin, P1NP, BSAP, CTX, sclerostin, DKK1, periostin, and TRAP5b. Areal bone mineral density (aBMD) was assessed with dual x-ray absorptiometry, and the bone material strength index (BMSi) was assessed with microindentation. Results Most MBM reached peak levels at 6 weeks after the injury, including osteocalcin (+17.7%), sclerostin (+23.5%), and DKK1 (12.6%). Sclerostin was lower (-27.4%) and DKK1 was higher (+22.2%) at 1 year after the fracture. CTX declined below baseline levels at 6 and 12 months, whereas TRAP5b, BSAP, and periostin did not significantly change. At 12 months, sclerostin was lower (p = 0.003) and DKK1 was higher (p = 0.03) in the distal radial fracture group than in the control group. Greater fracture severity was associated with greater increases in P1NP and BSAP. aBMD and BMSi were not associated with fracture. Conclusions Distal radial fractures caused increases in several MBM, which typically peaked at 6 weeks after injury and gradually decreased over 6 months. Sclerostin and DKK1 remained below and above baseline at 1 year, respectively. Increasing fracture severity resulted in larger changes in MBM. aBMD and BMSi did not discriminate between patients with distal radial fractures and controls. Continued efforts to identify markers of skeletal fragility in young women are warranted to mitigate future fracture risk. Level of evidence Prognostic Level II.
