Objective: Bone fractures are very common in children and their number is growing every year. Vitamin D has a proven role in the prevention of fractures. In the recent study, we have shown that children with low-energy fractures have significantly lower vitamin D blood levels compared to the children without fractures. Our data indicate that higher levels of vitamin D reduced the risk of fracture by 1.06 times (P<0.0005).Past decade has seen...

Mithal Ambrish , Kaur Parjeet , Bansal Beena , Mishra Sunil , Singh V P , Sarin Deepak

Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has evolved into an asymptomatic disease in the west. In contrast classic symptoms of PHPT have been reported to be common in the East with as many as 80100% of PHPT patients presenting with bone manifestations in India.Objective: To describe clinical and biochemical profile of patients diagnosed with PHPT between years 2009 and 2012.Methodology: This was a retrospective study co...

The possibilities of bone regeneration in children

Michovich Michail , Glazkin Leonid , Lamnev Viktor

Introduction: Using the autograft bones in treatment orthopaedic diseases and trauma is common. However, cases of the large bone fragments autoplasty in acute trauma is rare. We have studied the case of succesfull autoplasty of the large tibial fragment in severe road accident.Materials and methods: Child O., born in 2000, was delivered to the emergency room of Mogilev City Hospital after road accident (he was hit by a car while crossing the street). His...

Skeletal genetic diseases involving matrix proteins

Briggs Michael

Skeletal diseases are a large and diverse group of rare monogenic phenotypes and there are more than 450 unique and well-characterised chondrodysplasia phenotypes that range in severity from relatively mild to severe and lethal forms. Studying these genetically tractable chondrodysplasia phenotypes provides insight into disease pathways that may be relevant to the more common and polygenic forms of OA.Pseudoachondroplasia (PSACH) and multiple epiphyseal ...

Introduction: Autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR) is a rare form of inherited isolated renal phosphate wasting with two distinct clinical phenotypes; early-onset and late-onset. Late-onset ADHR is characterized by normal phosphate levels and growth during childhood, followed by osteomalacia with bone pain, pseudofractures and weakness in adolescence or adulthood, but with no lower extremity deformities. Most of the late-onset ADHR patients are women and pregnanc...

Management of sclerosing bone disease

Whyte Michael P

Many disorders cause osteosclerosis, and many exclusively affect adults. Pediatricians are likely to encounter those that are Mendelian diseases, with most still classified as dysplasias although now understood at the gene level. Thus, there is promise for defining their molecular and biochemical pathogeneses, and for developing targeted medical treatments. Sclerosing bone dysplasias too have become the turf of the metabolic bone disease specialist. How...
