CHANGE OF BONE METABOLISM IN PATIENTS WITH HEPATITIS B VIRUS INDUCED CHRONIC ACTIVE HEPATITIS AND CIRRHOSIS

Abstract

In this study, we evaluated 15 pts with cirrhosis and 14 pts with CAH due to HBV etiology. 20 healthy volunteers with similar age and sex were admited to study as control. We measured the plasma ionised Ca, 25(OH)Vit D, PTH levels as a marker of bone mineralization; bone spesific alkaline phophatase (BAP), osteocalcin and type-1 collagen propeptide as the marker of bone formation; and urinary calcium and deoxypyridinoline excretion for determination of bone resorption. Bone mineral density of the lumbar spine and proximal part of femur was assesed by dual emission X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) method. There was no statistically significant difference between cirrhosis, CAH and control groups for plasma ionised Ca, 25(OH)Vit D and PTH levels. Both in CAH and cirrhosis groups significantly increased bone loss were found by measurements of BMD of L1-L4 lumbar spine and 5 different areas of femur (neck, trochanter, intertrochanter, Ward's triangle and total). Plasma osteocalcin level was found significantly higher in both pts groups than controls (p
