ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the functioning and associated factors in children and adolescents with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted on 30 children and adolescents with OI. Medical records, use of bisphosphonates, socioeconomic status, handgrip strength, balance, joint hypermobility, ambulatory level, and the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory—Computer Adaptative Test (PEDI-CAT) scores were assessed. Data is presented as mean and standard deviation and Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney U test. Categorical data is presented as frequency and analyzed using Fisher's exact test. Within-group analyses were conducted using ANCOVA or Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Correlations used Kendall's Tau-b test. Results: The participants involved in this study were 6-18 years old. The sample was separated into two groups according to disease severity. The moderate/severe OI group (n=10) presented a lower height and muscular strength than the mild group (n=20). Muscle weakness was observed in all participants with OI when compared with the normal population. No differences were observed between the groups in the PEDI-CAT scores except for the mobility domain. There were correlations between the PEDI-CAT mobility domain and the number of fractures, OI type, weight, and balance; there was also a correlation between the PEDI-CAT daily activities, mobility, responsibility, and social/cognitive domains. Conclusions: The findings suggest that children with moderate/severe forms of OI can achieve the same function levels as children with mild OI. Fractures can have a major influence on the functional level, and treatment should focus on the prevention and rehabilitation of these events when they occur.


RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a funcionalidade e fatores associados em crianças e adolescentes com osteogênese imperfeita (OI). Métodos: Estudo transversal com 30 crianças e adolescentes com OI. Foram avaliados prontuários médicos, uso de bisfosfonatos, características socioeconômicas, dinamometria de preensão palmar, equilíbrio, hipermobilidade articular, nível de deambulação e escores do Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory - Computer Adaptative Test (PEDI-CAT). Os dados foram apresentados em média e desvio padrão e comparados por teste t por Mann-Whitney, enquanto os categóricos foram apresentados em frequência e comparados pelo teste exato de Fisher. Análises intragrupos foram realizadas por análise de covariância (ANCOVA) ou Teste de Wilcoxon para postos sinalizados. O teste Tau-b de Kendall foi usado para correlações. Resultados: A idade variou de 6 a 18 anos. A amostra foi dividida em dois grupos de acordo com a gravidade da doença. Casos moderados/graves (n=10) apresentaram menor estatura e força muscular comparadas às dos leves (n=20). Fraqueza muscular foi observada em todos os casos de OI quando comparados à população normal. Não houve diferença nos domínios do PEDI-CAT com exceção do domínio mobilidade. Houve correlação entre o número de fraturas, tipo de OI, peso e equilíbrio e o domínio mobilidade; e entre os domínios Atividades Diárias e Mobilidade e Responsabilidade e Social/cognitivo do PEDI-CAT. Conclusões: Nossos achados sugerem que crianças com OI moderada/severa podem atingir o mesmo nível de funcionalidade que crianças com a forma leve. Fraturas podem ter grande influência no nível de funcionalidade e o tratamento deve enfocar a prevenção e a reabilitação desses eventos.

ABSTRACT

Osteogenesis imperfecta(OI)is a hereditary connective tissue disease,and roughly 85% of the patients are caused by heterozygous mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2,the coding genes of type Ⅰcollagen. Primary symptomatic manifestations of OI are low bone mass,frequent fractures and skeletal deformity,and other symptoms include blue sclera,dentinogenesis imperfecta,hyperlaxity of joint and ligaments,short stature and hearing impairment. Some patients may have muscle weakness,obesity and other symptoms,and the systemic low-grade inflammation and changes in bone microenvironment caused by obesity may have more negative effects on OI bones. The occurrence of obesity in OI patients may be related to energy metabolism abnormalities caused by multiple factors such as reduced activity,abnormal muscle fat metabolism,and diverse genotypes. Currently,there is a lack of large sample data on the incidence of obesity,and exploring the mechanism of skeletal-muscle interaction and energy metabolism regulation is of great significance for OI related obesity prevention and treatment.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Purpose: to characterize the electrical activation of the masseter and suprahyoid muscles at rest and during swallowing tasks, to compare it with clinical aspects of swallowing. Methods: a cross-sectional study, divided into mild osteogenesis imperfecta and moderate-to-severe osteogenesis imperfecta groups. Surface electromyography was performed on the masseter and suprahyoid muscles at rest and during swallowing tasks. The Orofacial Myofunctional Evaluation with Scores assessment form was used to assess clinical aspects of swallowing. Results: moderate-to-severe osteogenesis imperfecta participants presented a higher percentage of masseter activation than mild osteogenesis imperfecta ones. Regarding the clinical aspects of swallowing, the total sample presented 40.9% normal lip occlusion or with slight effort; 59.1% demonstrated tongue protrusion and 50% showed two other signs of atypical function. Furthermore, the higher the score for lip activity during swallowing, the lower the activation of the suprahyoid muscles at rest. Conclusions: the activation of the suprahyoid muscles while swallowing saliva and during consecutive swallows of liquid was similar, and activation during different tasks was higher in the moderate-to-severe osteogenesis imperfecta group. The better the labial myofunctional condition during swallowing, the lower the electrical activation of the suprahyoid muscles at rest.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objectives: To screen the COL1A1 and COL1A2 gene mutation sites in a family with type I osteogenesis imperfecta (OI)/hearing loss and analyze the characteristics and recovery of hearing loss in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta. Methods: The basic clinical data of Ol proband and her parents were collected, and the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes were detected in peripheral blood by PCR amplification and generation Sanger sequencing. Literature of stapedial surgery in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta was collected. Results: The heterozygous mutation of the 26 exon c.1922_1923 ins C in the Ol progenitor COL1A1 gene led to the amino acid frameshift mutation of p.Pro 601FS, which was not detected in the phenotypic parents. The homozygous of exon 28 c.1782>G in COL1A2 was detected in the proband and her parents, resulting in changes in the protein p.Pro 549Ala. Conclusion: The clinical symptoms of the Ol proband is caused by heterozygous mutation of the 26 exon c.1922_1923 ins C in COL1A1 gene. Stapedial surgery can provide short-term and long-term hearing benefits for Ol patients with hearing loss. Level of evidence: Level 4.

ABSTRACT

Dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI) is an autosomal dominant disorder that affects the dentin development. It is characterized by the presence of opalescent dentin, with dusky blue to brownish discoloration of the teeth. This condition is genetically and clinically heterogeneous; DI may affect only the teeth or it may be associated with the osteogenesis imperfect (OI). When both are associated there are various degrees of clinical presentation from mild form with less significant signs to severe form such as death in infancy. The most familiar classification system of this hereditary disorder is Shields classification which is of 3 types namely, type I, DI associated with OI, type II is not associated with OI. Type III which is also known as ‘Brandywine type’ DI. This case report describes a rare case of 32-year-old female patient who showed the characteristic features of Shield’s classification type I with penetrance of defect through 4 generations.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective The present study aimed to relate the strength, assistance with walking, rising from a chair, climbing stairs, and falls (SARC-F) score with the presence or absence of fragility fracture in the population over 60 years of age. Methods The risk of sarcopenia was determined through the application of the SARC-F questionnaire, and the patients were divided into 2 groups, according to the occurrence or not of fragility fracture (n = 100). Results Thirty-two cases of distal radius fractures and eighteen cases of proximal femur fractures were identified. A higher score on the SARC-F is determinant between having or not a fragility fracture, estimating that for each point in the score there is a 70% increase in the chance of a patient having a fracture, regardless of age, gender, and body mass index (BMI). Conclusion There was a direct correlation between a higher score on the SARC-F and an increase in the chance of fragility fracture.


Resumo Objetivo O presente estudo teve como objetivo relacionar o escore strength, assistance with walking, rising from a chair, climbing stairs, and falls (SARC-F) com a presença ou não de fratura por fragilidade na população acima de 60 anos. Métodos O risco de sarcopenia foi determinado por meio da aplicação do questionário SARC-F, sendo os pacientes divididos em 2 grupos, de acordo com a ocorrência ou não de fratura por fragilidade (n = 100). Resultados Foram levantados 32 casos de fratura de rádio distal e 18 casos de fratura de fêmur proximal. Uma maior pontuação no SARC-F determina bem entre ter ou não ter fratura por fragilidade, estimando que a cada ponto a mais no escore há um acréscimo de 70% na chance de o paciente ter fratura, independentemente da idade, sexo e índice de massa corporal (IMC). Conclusão Houve correlação direta entre uma maior pontuação no SARC-F e aumento na chance de fratura por fragilidade.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: This study aims to evaluate the respiratory function of children and adolescents with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) followed up at a referral center. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a non-probabilistic sample. Manovacuometry was performed with the measurement of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximal expiratory pressure (MEP), and in addition, peak expiratory flow (PEF) and ventilometry were performed to measure forced vital capacity (FVC). Results: In total, 23 individuals were evaluated, with a mean age of 11.6±3.4 years, 56.5% of whom were females. Regarding the classification of OI, 56.5% of the sample belonged to type IV, 30.5% to type III, and 13% to type I. The mean MIP was 64.4% of the predicted, and the mean MEP was 56.2% of the predicted. Overall, the mean PEF was 213.9 L/min, but only 140.6 L/min in the OI type III group. Median FVC was 1.9 L, corresponding to 110% of the predicted. Conclusions: Respiratory function of the study subjects was altered, with respiratory muscle strength values lower than expected in the whole sample, and peak expiratory flow was significantly reduced in the OI type III group.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disorder primarily caused by mutations in the genes involved in the production of type 1 collagen. OI is also known as brittle bone disease. Objective This study aims to describe the prevalence of dental anomalies (except dentinogenesis imperfecta) in individuals with OI, and compare the prevalence of dental anomalies between individuals with and without OI and between individuals with different types of OI. Search methods Searches in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Ovid, and gray literature were performed in October 2022. Selection criteria Observational studies (with or without a comparison group) that evaluated the prevalence of dental anomalies in individuals with OI. Data collection and analysis: Data items were extracted by two authors. Quality assessment employing the Joanna Briggs Institute checklists and meta-analyses was conducted. Results were provided in prevalence values and odds ratio (OR) / 95% confidence interval (CI). Strength of evidence was determined. Results Eighteen studies were included. Most prevalent dental anomalies in individuals with OI included pulp obliteration (46.4%), dental impaction (33.5%), dental impaction of second molars (27%), and tooth agenesis (23.9%). Individuals with OI type III/IV had 20.16-fold greater chance of exhibiting tooth discoloration in comparison with individuals with OI type I (CI: 1.10-370.98). In comparison with the group without OI, the individuals with OI had 6.90-fold greater chance of exhibiting dental impaction (CI: 1.54-31.00). High methodological quality was found in 47% of the studies. Strength of evidence was low or very low. Conclusions Pulp obliteration, dental impaction, and tooth agenesis were the most prevalent dental anomalies in the OI group. Individuals with OI were more likely to have dental impaction than individuals without OI. Individuals with OI type III/IV (severe-moderate) are more likely to have tooth discoloration than individuals with OI type I (mild).

ABSTRACT

Introducción: la osteogénesis imperfecta (OI) es el trastorno óseo hereditario más común con incidencia mundial de 1 en 10.000 a 25.000 nacimientos, causado por mutaciones de los genes que codifican las cadenas del colágeno tipo I. La mayoría presenta patrón de herencia autosómico dominante. Las manifestaciones clínicas varían de asintomáticos con mayor predisposición a fracturas, talla normal y sin incidencia en la expectativa de vida, hasta alta letalidad perinatal con deformidades esqueléticas severas, incapacidad motora y talla muy baja. Objetivos: reportar un paciente con presentación inusual de OI tipo III con fracturas in útero para contribuir en la orientación diagnóstica. Caso clínico: recién nacido con sospecha in útero de OI tipo II, nació a término vía cesárea, Ballard de 37 semanas y bajo peso con fracturas múltiples y defectos de osificación (braquicefalia). A los 4 meses con sobrevida mayor a la esperada, presentaba escleróticas grisáceas, braquicefalia, fontanelas amplias, fragilidad ósea generalizada y deformidades angulares en extremidades; confirmándose la OI tipo III mediante secuenciación exómica. Conclusiones: el diagnóstico de la OI se basa en la clínica y las características típicas. La supervivencia, los hallazgos radiográficos y el resultado de los estudios genéticos moleculares permiten la adecuada clasificación.


Introduction: osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is the most common hereditary bone disorder with a global incidence of 1 in 10,000 to 25,000 births. OI is caused by mutations in the genes encoding the chains of collagen type I and is mostly inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Clinical manifestations vary from asymptomatic with increased propensity to fractures, normal stature and no impact on life expectancy, to high perinatal lethality, severe skeletal deformities, motor disability and very short stature. Objectives: to report a case of an unusual presentation of OI type III in an infant who had in utero fractures, as a diagnostic resource. Case: a full-term infant born via cesarean section, with suspected in utero OI type II, Ballard score: 37 weeks, low weight and multiple fractures and ossification defects (brachycephaly). At 4 months, a higher survival than the expected, he presented greyish sclerae, brachycephaly, large fontanels, generalized bone fragility and bowing of extremities; OI type III was confirmed by exome sequencing. Conclusions: OI diagnosis is based on the clinical and typical features of the disorder. Survival, radiographic findings and molecular genetic testing allow an adequate classification.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: Osteogênese Imperfeita (OI) é uma doença genética rara com fragilidade óssea. A classificação inclui muitos tipos. Além do risco de recorrência, o manejo pode variar com o tipo de OI. Relato do caso: Apresentamos um paciente do sexo masculino nascido com 39 semanas, de pais não consanguíneos e saudáveis. A hidrocefalia foi diagnosticada no pré-natal. Com 50 dias de vida, detectamos muitas fraturas e calos ósseos. O teste molecular identificou uma deleção em homozigose do éxon 4 do gene WNT1. Considerações finais: Concluímos que o caso apresentado tinha características clínicas de OI XV, e o teste molecular foi fundamental para o diagnóstico preciso e aconselhamento genético.


Introduction: Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disease with bone fragility. The classification includes many types. In addition, the risk of a recurrence, the management can vary with the kind of OI. Case report: We report a male patient born at 39 weeks from non-consanguineous healthy parents. The patient was diagnosed with Hydrocephalus at prenatal. At 50 days of life, we detected many fractures and bone calluses. The molecular test identified a homozygous deletion of exon 4 of the WNT1 gene. Final considerations: We conclude this case had clinical features of OI XV, and the molecular test was fundamental for the precise diagnosis and the genetic counseling.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN La osteogénesis imperfecta (OI), también conocida como enfermedad de los huesos de cristal, es una enfermedad rara, causada principalmente por mutaciones en los genes COL1A1 y COL1A2. Aunque el 85-90% de los eventos son causados por mutaciones en el propio colágeno, las formas recesivas pueden ser el resultado de otros defectos. Dado que pueden ocurrir hallazgos similares entre la OI y otras enfermedades, es necesario un diagnóstico diferencial para una adopción más rápida de los tratamientos apropiados. Debido a la necesidad constante de exámenes, estos pacientes tienen más probabilidades de tener complicaciones por la radiación ionizante, por lo que es muy importante cumplir estrictamente con todos los requisitos de protección radiológica. OBJETIVO Verificar la existencia de protocolos de imagen utilizados en el diagnóstico de la OI y describir las técnicas radiográficas involucradas en el proceso. METODOLOGIA Se trata de un estudio cualitativo en el que se utilizaron las revistas PubMed, BIREME, CAPES y ScienceDirect, con el objetivo de verificar la presencia de investigaciones dirigidas a la creación de protocolos de imagen para auxiliar el diagnóstico de la OI. CONSIDERACIONES FINALES: Si bien ha demostrado ser de gran utilidad, debido a los riesgos a los que están expuestos los pacientes con OI, el uso de herramientas que liberan radiaciones ionizantes debe ser monitoreado constantemente. Por lo tanto, los protocolos deben revisarse para que, incluso con una reducción de la dosis, no se pierda la resolución y el detalle de la imagen.


ABSTRACT: The osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), also known as brittle bone disease, is a rare disease, mainly caused by mutations in genes COL1A1 and COL1A2. Although 85-90% of events are caused by mutations in collagen itself, the recessive forms may be the result of other defects. Since similar findings may occur between OI and other diseases, a differential diagnosis is required for faster adoption of appropriate treatments. Due to the constant need for tests, these patients are more likely to have complications due to ionizing radiation, so it is very important to strictly comply with all radiological protection requirements. OBJETIVO To verify the existence of imaging protocols used in the diagnosis of OI and to describe the radiographic techniques involved in the process. METHODOLOGY This is a qualitative study in which PubMed, BIREME, CAPES y ScienceDirect databases were used, with the objective of verifying the presence of research aimed at the creation of imaging protocols to assist in the diagnosis of OI. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS Although it has proved very useful, because of the risks to which patients with OI are exposed, the use of tools that release ionizing radiation should be monitored constantly. With this, the protocols should be reviewed so that even with a dose reduction, the resolution and detail of the image are not lost

ABSTRACT

@#Malunion of recurrent fractures in Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) patients causes limb length discrepancy and malrotation. These cause added difficulty for OI patients to ambulate. Lengthening with distraction osteogenesis using an external fixator in OI patients is challenging. Acute lengthening with autologous bone graft is a known method in a normal bone but not a known procedure in OI patients. We present two clinic cases of adolescent OI patients with limb length discrepancy and externally rotated lower limb that underwent acute lengthening and rotational correction using a locked intramedullary nail and ipsilateral autologous iliac bone graft. Both patients obtained union and improvement of ambulatory capability without recurrence of fracture within five years of follow-up. Acute lengthening by 2cm and rotational correction with intramedullary nail improved the gait efficiency in the OI patients. Harvesting large amounts of the tricortical iliac bone graft, followed by controlled weight-bearing is a safe procedure.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Introducción: La osteogénesis imperfecta es un trastorno hereditario del tejido conectivo que condiciona fragilidad ósea y susceptibilidad a fracturas. Es una enfermedad sistémica con posibilidad de afectación esquelética y extraesquelética. Su cuidado es, por tanto, multidisciplinar y el papel de los profesionales de la pediatría es primordial. Objetivo: Aportar información sobre las características y el cuidado de la osteogénesis imperfecta, a través de la descripción de un caso clínico. Pesentación del caso: Niño de 2 años y 3 meses de edad, de origen argelino y de padres consanguíneos. Fue diagnosticado en su país de origen de una forma recesiva de osteogénesis imperfecta en los primeros meses de vida por fracturas a repetición. Conclusiones: La manipulación cuidadosa, el control del dolor y el apoyo emocional, entre otros, son fundamentales. Los profesionales de pediatría, como agentes activos en estos casos, deben conocer las peculiaridades del cuidado de pacientes con osteogénesis imperfecta para evitar y detectar complicaciones asociadas. En las familias el conocimiento conlleva además, una toma de conciencia sanitaria acerca de esta enfermedad.


ABSTRACT Introduction: Osteogenesis imperfecta is an hereditary disorder of the connective tissue that conditions to bone fragility and sensitivity to fractures. It is a systemic disease with a possibility of skeletic and extraskeletic affectations. Therefore, its care is multidisciplinary and the role of Pediatrics professionals is paramount. Objective: Contribute with information on the characteristics and the care of osteogenesis imperfecta through the description of a clinical case. Case presentation: Boy of 2 years and 3 months old, from Algeria and with parents by blood. He was diagnosed in his country with a recesive osteogenesis imperfecta in the first months of life due to repeated fractures. Conclusions: Careful handling, pain control and emotional support, among others, are important. Pediatric professionals as active agents in these cases should know the peculiarities of the care of patients with osteogenesis imperfecta to avoid and detect asssociated complications. In the families, knowledge on this also entails sanitary awareness on the disease.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective To describe postural balance, handgrip strength and mobility in children and adolescents with different types of osteogenesis imperfecta. Methods Cross-sectional study. Fifty selected subjects diagnosed with types I (n = 11), III (n = 21), and IV (n = 18), followed up at Brazilian reference center for osteogenesis imperfecta in the Midwest region, aged 2-21 years (9.2 ± 5.0), were enrolled in this study. Children and adolescents were evaluated for postural balance in the upright position with eyes-open and eyes-closed conditions, handgrip strength and the mobility domain (Pediatric Dysfunction Assessment Inventory). Data normality and difference between groups was verified. Results Handgrip strength was significantly lower in people with type III of osteogenesis imperfecta when compared to the osteogenesis imperfecta types I and IV, and to the age-specific reference data. Center of pressure length and mean velocity in the condition with eyes closed were worse compared to the open-eyes condition for children and adolescents with type I of osteogenesis imperfecta. There were worse results in the mobility domain for the participants classified with the most severe type of osteogenesis imperfecta. Conclusions It was observed that the severity of the osteogenesis imperfecta disease affected handgrip strength and locomotor function assessed by the mobility domain. Comparing osteogenesis imperfecta types, the higher the severity of osteogenesis imperfecta, the lower the handgrip strength. These results can contribute to new strategies of treatment focused on improving functional capacity and quality of life in people with osteogenesis imperfecta.

ABSTRACT

La osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) es un grupo de trastornos del tejido conectivo que genera anomalías esqueléticas caracterizadas por fragilidad y deformidades óseas. Las características genéticas son variables y se han descrito nuevos subgrupos los últimos años agregando información a las clasificaciones tradicionales. Su incidencia es de 1/10.000 a 20.000 RN vivos. Existe un amplio espectro de manifestaciones clínicas, que van desde una leve fragilidad ósea, en niños asintomáticos, hasta versiones que son letales al momento de nacer. El diagnóstico es principalmente clínico y debe diferenciarse de otras anomalías del esqueleto que producen fragilidad y de lesiones por maltrato infantil. El tratamiento es multidisciplinario y está orientado a mejorar la calidad de vida de los pacientes. Para lo que se debe mejorar la densidad ósea, a través de medicamentos, buena musculatura y cargas fisiológicas. Las fracturas se tratan con períodos cortos de inmovilización y carga precoz, o con cirugías que limiten el tiempo de inmovilización. Por otro lado, las deformidades esqueléticas deben tratarse en forma quirúrgica utilizando osteosíntesis que sean extensibles y mantengan la corrección a medida que el niño crece. El manejo coordinado de los distintos profesionales involucrados es de gran importancia para lograr los mejores resultados en esta enfermedad crónica que involucra al niño y todo su entorno


Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a group of connective tissue disorders involved in skeletal abnormalities characterized by bone fragility and deformities. Genetic abnormalities are variable and new subgroups have been described recently, adding information to traditional classifications. There is a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations, ranging from mild bone fragility, in otherwise asymptomatic children, to versions that are lethal at birth. Its incidence is 1/10.000-20.000 newborns. The diagnosis is mainly clinical and must be distinguished from other skeletal abnormalities and child abuse. The treatment is multidisciplinary, and it is aimed to improve the quality of life of patients. For which the bone density must be improved, through medications, strong musculature, and physiological loads. Fractures are treated by immobilizing for short periods, trying to load at soon as possible, or by surgeries that limit immobilization time. On the other hand, skeletal deformities should be treated surgically using dynamic rods that are extensible and maintain correction as the child grows. The coordinated management of the different professionals involved is of the utmost importance to achieve the best results in this chronic disease that involves the child and his entire environment
