Comparison of Studies evaluating Bone Formation and Resorption in DS

Study DS Group Control Group Marker of bone formation Marker of bone resorption Marker of bone turnover Bone formation Conclusions: Bone resorption Conclusions:
Sakadamis 200212 11 adult men with DS (average age of 26.5) 12 controls none none OHP:Cr none Bone turnover increased in DS
McKelvey 201213 30 adults (men and women) with DS (age 19–52) 8 controls P1NP CTx none Decreased in DS Similar in controls
Fowler 201211 Ts65Dn Mouse Littermates without Ts65Dn triploidy P1NP TRAP 5b none Decreased in DS Decreased in DS
Garcia-Hoyos 20175 75 adults over 18 years (men and women) 76 controls P1NP CTx none Increased in DS Similar to controls

P1NP: N-terminal propeptide of type 1 collagen

CTx: C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen

OHP:Cr = hydroxyproline to creatinine ratio
