Abstract

Objective The risk factors for the most common adverse reactions of two types of antiosteoporosis drugs in the first treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis were analyzed to investigate the relationship between the occurrence of adverse reactions and different bone transition states and vitamin D levels. Methods A total of 381 postmenopausal women who were diagnosed with osteoporosis in the Osteoporosis Clinic of Ningxia Medical University General Hospital from January 2017 to June 2020 were enrolled. A telephone follow-up survey was conducted on the mentioned subjects. According to the survey results, the mentioned subjects were selected according to their first use of antiosteoporosis drugs. They were divided into zoledronic acid and teriparatide acetate groups. The subjects in the two groups were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of adverse reactions after medication and according to vitamin D level and P1NP level, and the correlation between the two factors and the occurrence of adverse reactions was analyzed. Results Among the 307 patients treated with zoledronic acid for antiosteoporosis, 99 patients developed acute phase adverse reactions (APR+), accounting for 32.2% of the total subjects. 56.7 percent of the subjects had vitamin D deficiency. The 25(OH)D level of the APR + subjects was 16.75 ± 9.20 ng/mL, significantly lower than that of the APR− patients (23.68 ± 10.67 ng/mL). Serological P1NP level in APR+ patients was 73.95 ± 34.50 ng/ml, significantly higher than that of APR− patients with 55.80 ± 36.91 ng/ml. Musculoskeletal symptoms were observed in 14 of the 74 subjects treated with teriparatide acetate, accounting for 18.9% of the total subjects. The 25(OH)D level was deficient in 59.5% of the subjects. The 25(OH)D level of the subjects with musculoskeletal symptoms was 15.96 ± 8.17 ng/ml, while that of the subjects without musculoskeletal symptoms was 20.86 ± 8.52 ng/ml, which showed no statistical significance. The reason was considered to be related to the small sample size included in the study. The P1NP level of subjects with musculoskeletal symptoms was 96.85 ± 58.52 ng/ml, significantly higher than the P1NP level of subjects without musculoskeletal symptoms (55.28 ± 27.87 ng/ml). Conclusions The 25(OH)D level in vivo was negatively correlated with the acute phase adverse reactions after the first infusion of zoledronic acid. When the rate of bone formation is increased and osteoblasts are active, the risk of acute phase adverse reactions is increased with the use of zoledronic acid as antiosteoporosis therapy. There was no significant correlation between 25(OH)D levels and musculoskeletal symptoms after teriparatide acetate treatment of osteoporosis. When the rate of bone formation is increased and osteoblasts are active, the risk of adverse reactions to musculoskeletal symptoms is increased with antiosteoporosis treatment with teriparatide acetate.

Highlights

  • Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic bone disease marked by reduced bone strength and increased risk of fracture [1]

  • Inclusion, and exclusion criteria, 381 postmenopausal patients with osteoporosis were enrolled in the study, which were divided into the zoledronic acid group and the teriparatide acetate group based on the first use of antiosteoporosis drugs

  • Musculoskeletal symptoms occurred in 18.9% of the 74 subjects in the teriparatide acetate group. ere were no significant differences in age, height, weight, BMI, Ca, PTH, and BMD T values between the group with musculoskeletal symptoms and the group without musculoskeletal symptoms. e levels of 25(OH)D in the musculoskeletal symptom+ group were lower than those in the musculoskeletal symptom− group. e level of P1NP in the musculoskeletal symptom+ group was significantly higher than that in the musculoskeletal symptom− group (Table 5)

Summary

Introduction

Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic bone disease marked by reduced bone strength and increased risk of fracture [1]. Ere are many kinds of antiosteoporosis drugs, and the two types of representative antiosteoporosis drugs with different mechanisms are bone resorption inhibitors and bone formation promoters which are used the most in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine clinical practice. According to the classic ACTive test [6,7,8], the representative of bone-enhancing drugs is teriparatide acetate, which often has side effects with musculoskeletal symptoms such as limb pain. Erefore, this study aims to analyze the relationship between vitamin D, bone turnover marker P1NP, and adverse reactions of anti-osteoporosis drugs, analyze the risk factors of the most common adverse reactions of two osteoporosis drugs in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis, and study the occurrence of adverse reactions under different bone turnover and the correlation between vitamin D levels
