Cortical porosity develops in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and increases with progressing disease. Cortical porosity is likely a prominent contributor to skeletal fragility/fracture. The degree to which cortical porosity occurs throughout the skeleton is not fully known. In this study, we assessed cortical bone porosity via micro-computed tomography at multiple skeletal sites in rats with progressive chronic kidney disease. We hypothesized that cortical porosity would occur in long bones throughout the body, but to a lesser degree in flat bones and irregular bones. Porosity was measured, using micro-CT, at 17 different skeletal sites in 6 male rats with CKD. Varying degrees of porosity were seen throughout the skeleton with higher porosity in flat and irregular bone (i.e. parietal bone, mandible) vs. long bones (p = 0.01) and in non-weightbearing bones vs. weightbearing bones (p = 0.01). Porosity was also higher in proximal sites vs. distal sites in long bones (p |
