How can bone turnover modify bone strength independent of bone mass?
چکیده انگلیسی

The amount of bone turnover in the skeleton has been identified as a predictor of fracture risk independent of areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and is increasingly cited as an explanation for discrepancies between areal bone mineral density and fracture risk. A number of mechanisms have been proposed to explain how bone turnover influences bone biomechanics, including regulation of tissue degree of mineralization, the disconnection or fenestration of individual trabeculae by remodeling cavities, and the ability of cavities formed during the remodeling process to act as stress risers. While these mechanisms can influence bone biomechanics, they also modify bone mass. If bone turnover is to explain any of the observed discrepancies between fracture risk and areal bone mineral density, however, it must not only modify bone strength, but must also modify bone strength in excess of what would be expected from the associated change in bone mass. This article summarizes biomechanical studies of how tissue mineralization, trabecular disconnection, and the presence of remodeling cavities might have an effect on cancellous bone strength independent of bone mass. Existing data support the idea that all of these factors may have a disproportionate effect on bone stiffness and/or strength, with the exception of average tissue degree of mineralization, which may not affect bone strength independent of aBMD. Disproportionate effects of mineral content on bone biomechanics may instead come from variation in tissue degree of mineralization at the micro-structural level. The biomechanical explanation for the relationship between bone turnover and fracture incidence remains to be determined, but must be examined not in terms of bone biomechanics, but in terms of bone biomechanics relative to bone mass.
