Summary: This study found that only 23% of patients with CP underwent DXA examination, with 53.4% of patients having low BMD. The fracture rate was significantly higher in patients with low BMD compared to those with normal BMD.

Summary: Bone disease in chronic pancreatitis (CP) is often overlooked but significant. This study aimed to quantify the prevalence of osteopenia, osteoporosis, and fragility fractures in CP patients and explore associated clinical features and outcomes. Results showed that the prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis in CP patients was 41.2% and 20.9%, respectively, with a fragility fracture prevalence of 5.9%. Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) use was significantly associated with osteoporosis prevalence, while other factors such as age, gender, BMI, alcohol or smoking exposure, and diabetes showed no significant associations with bone disease in CP.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and potential predictors of osteoporosis in COPD patients. The results showed a high prevalence of osteoporosis in COPD patients, with advanced age, lower BMI, history of exacerbation, and high CRP levels being potential predictors. COPD patients without treatment exhibited a rapid decline in bone mineral density.

Summary: Patients with chronic pancreatitis often do not receive optimal preventive care, with pancreas specialists more likely to perform DEXA and Vit-D testing compared to PCP and gastroenterologists. More physician education is needed.

Summary: Chronic pancreatitis is associated with increased risk of osteopenia, osteoporosis, and fractures. This systematic review and meta-analysis found that the prevalence of osteoporosis was 19% in patients with chronic pancreatitis, and they were more likely to have osteoporosis compared to controls. The study highlights the need for further research on the impact of osteoporotic fractures and associated morbidity and mortality in chronic pancreatitis.

Summary: The study found that bone mineral density in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is related to disease severity and may serve as a new marker for predicting disease severity.

Summary: Children with acute recurrent pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis have lower height and bone mineral density compared to healthy peers, calling for attention to deficits in growth and bone mineral accrual.

Summary: Through two longitudinal studies, it was found that the calcium intake of Chinese residents is inversely associated with obesity, and does not significantly increase the risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension. After adjusting for vegetable intake, there was no significant association between calcium intake and obesity.

Summary: Nutritional status and bone mineral density were studied in children with chronic pancreatitis (CP). 41% of CP children had undernutrition, mostly mild, while nearly 20% had low BMD without osteoporosis. Subjects with low BMI showed lower BMD and body fat percentage.

Summary: Chronic pancreatitis is associated with osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and vitamin deficiency. Untreated pancreatic exocrine insufficiency increases the risk of these outcomes.
