Abstract

The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of continuous and intermittent salmon calcitonin in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Sixty-eight women with postmeno-pausal osteoporosis were randomized to 2 treatment groups. The first group consisting of 33 patients received nasal salmon calcitonin 200 IU/day. Thirty-five patients in the second group were treated with 200 IU of nasal SCT daily for 5 days with a subsequent pause of 2 days. All received a daily supplement of 1000 mg calcium. Both treatment regimen were applied for 1 2 months. The effect of nasal calcitonin on bone mineral density (BMD)was investigated by DE-XA. Serum ALP, Ca and P levels and urinary Ca excretion were assessed before the treatment and at the end of 1 2 months. Serum ALP levels decreased mildly, but in a statistically significant manner in both groups ( p< 0.05). There was no significant differences for the other biochemical parameters(p> 0.05). There was a significant increase above baseline in the BMD of the lumbar spine, trochanteric region and Ward's triangle in both groups (p< 0.01, p< 0.05 and p<0.05 respectively). In both groups no significant change was observed in femur neck BMD (p> 0.05). This study indicates that both continuous and intermittent SCT at a dosage of 200 lU/day are effective in the treatment of postme-nopausal osteoporosis .

Özet

Bu çalışma postmenopozal osteoporozu olan kadınlarda sürekli ve İntermitan kalsitonin tedavisinin etkinliğini araştırmak üzere planlandı. Çalışmaya 68 hasta dahil edildi ve hastalar randomize olarak 2 gruba ayrıldı. Otuz üç hastadan oluşan 1. gruba 1 yıl süreyle 200 IU/gün dozda nasal salmon kalsitonini (sCt) ve 1000 mg/gün kalsiyum verildi. Otuz beş hastadan oluşan 2. gruptaki hastalar ise aynı doz ilacı haftanın 5 günü kullandılar. Tedavi öncesinde ve 1 yıl sonunda tüm hastalarda DXA yöntemi ile lomber spinal ve proksimal femurda kemik mineral yoğunluğu (KMY) ölçümleri yapıldı ve serum Ca, P ve ALP düzeyleri ile 24 saatlik idrarda Ca düzeyi ölçüldü. Tedavi sonrasında her iki grupta da ALP düzeylerinde istatistiksel anlamı olan bir düşme saptandı (her iki grup için p 0.05). Grup 1 ' de yer alan hastaların tedavi öncesi ve sonrası KMY ölçümleri karşılaştırıldığında L2-L4, trokanterik bölge ve Ward üçgeni KMY' da anlamlı artışlar saptandığı gibi ( sırasıyla p 0.05). Bu sonuçlar gerek sürekli gerekse intermitan olarak uygulanan intranazal kalsitonin tedavisinin kemik mineral yoğunluğu üzerinde benzer etkiye sahip olduğunu düşündürdü.
