哮喘患儿皮质类固醇使用和骨骼矿物质沉积:维生素D的作用
2012/07/06
摘要
背景:诸多试验研究了皮质类固醇对骨骼矿物质沉积(BMA)的不良影响。维生素D缺乏在儿童中较常见。研究发现,维生素D与骨矿物质密度(BMD)下降相关。
目的:本试验研究维生素D水平较低的哮喘患儿是否更容易出现皮质类固醇对BMD的不良影响。
方法:对来自于儿童期哮喘管理项目的年龄为5~12岁的轻度至中度哮喘患儿平均随访4.3年。记录吸入和口服皮质类固醇(OCS)总量,试验开始前检测血清25-羟维生素D3,对腰椎进行串行双能量X射线骨密度仪扫描。每年的BMA率定义为:(4年随访的BMD – 基础BMD)/4年。
结果:检测780名受试者的BMA。基础状态下,男孩的维生素D水平能显著调节OCS与BMA之间的关系(维生素D与OCS存在交互作用,P=0.023)。基于维生素D水平分层后,结果显示,维生素D缺乏的男孩,BMA下降,伴随着OCS使用的增加(P<0.001)。与维生素D正常男孩相比,每年OCS治疗超过2个疗程的维生素D缺乏男孩,BMA率下降2倍(相对于无OCS治疗男孩)。
结论:维生素D水平能显著影响男孩OCS与BMA的相关性。有必要进一步在哮喘控制较差患儿中,研究补充维生素D是否有助于骨骼健康。

Abstract
BACKGROUND: The adverse effects of corticosteroids on bone mineral accretion (BMA) have been well documented. Vitamin D insufficiency, a prevalent condition in the pediatric population, has also been associated with decreased bone mineral density (BMD).
OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine whether children with asthma who have lower vitamin D levels are more susceptible to the negative effects of corticosteroids on BMD over time.
METHODS: Children aged 5 to 12 years with mild-to-moderate asthma who participated in the Childhood Asthma Management Program were followed for a mean of 4.3 years. Total doses of inhaled corticosteroids and oral corticosteroids (OCSs) were recorded, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels were measured at the beginning of the trial, and serial dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scans of the lumbar spine were performed. Annual BMA rates were defined as follows: [(BMD at 4 years’ follow-up - BMD at baseline)/4 years].
RESULTS: BMA was calculated for 780 subjects. In boys baseline vitamin D levels significantly modified the relationship between OCSs and BMA (vitamin D × OCS interaction, P = .023). Stratification by vitamin D levels showed a decrease in BMA with increased use of OCSs in vitamin D-insufficient boys only (P < .001). Compared with vitamin D-sufficient boys, vitamin D-insufficient boys exposed to more than 2 courses of OCSs per year had twice the decrease in BMA rate (relative to boys who were OCS unexposed).
CONCLUSIONS: Vitamin D levels significantly modified the effect of OCSs on BMA in boys. Further research is needed to examine whether vitamin D supplementation in children with poorly controlled asthma might confer benefits to bone health.
