La concentración sérica de fósforo oscila entre 2,5 y 4,5mg/dl (0,81-1,45mmol/l) en adultos, con niveles más altos en la infancia, la adolescencia y durante la gestación. El fosfato intracelular está implicado en el metabolismo intermediario y otras funciones celulares esenciales, mientras que el extracelular es fundamental para la mineralización de la matriz ósea. La fosforemia se mantiene en un estrecho rango mediante la regulación de la absorción intestinal, la redistribución y la reabsorción tubular renal de fósforo. La hipofosfatemia y la hiperfosfatemia son situaciones clínicas frecuentes, aunque, en la mayoría de las ocasiones, se trata de alteraciones leves y poco sintomáticas. Sin embargo, pueden presentarse cuadros agudos y severos que requieren tratamiento específico. En este documento elaborado por miembros del Grupo de Trabajo de Metabolismo Mineral y Óseo de la Sociedad Española de Endocrinología y Nutrición se revisan los trastornos del fosfato y se proporcionan algoritmos de manejo clínico de la hipofosfatemia y la hiperfosfatemia.

Serum phosphorus levels range from 2.5 and 4.5 mg/dl (0.81–1.45 mmol/l) in adults, with higher levels in childhood, adolescence, and pregnancy. Intracellular phosphate is involved in intermediary metabolism and other essential cell functions, while extracellular phosphate is essential for bone matrix mineralization. Plasma phosphorus levels are maintained within a narrow range by regulation of intestinal absorption, redistribution, and renal tubular absorption of the mineral. Hypophosphatemia and hyperphosphatemia are common clinical situations, although changes are most often mild and oligosymptomatic. However, acute and severe conditions that require specific treatment may occur. In this document, members of the Mineral and Bone Metabolism Working Group of the Spanish Society of Endocrinology and Nutrition review phosphate disorders and provide algorithms for adequate clinical management of hypophosphatemia and hyperphosphatemia.

Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) is associated with other comorbidities such as impaired glucose homeostasis and cardiovascular disease. Vitamin D insufficiency is highly prevalent and may be a common link between these disorders. However, the relationship between circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and insulin resistance in women with PMO has not been well evaluated. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between circulating levels of 25(OH)D and parameters of glucose homeostasis in a cohort of women with PMO to establish a serum concentration threshold of 25(OH)D for improved glycemic parameters.This cross-sectional study included 40 women with PMO. We measured 25(OH)D serum levels and glucose homeostasis parameters (glucose and insulin levels, insulin sensitivity, and β-secretion index HOMA2-%S and HOMA2-%B, respectively). Anthropometric, biochemical, and clinical parameters and bone markers were also evaluated.Circulating levels of 25(OH)D were related to glucose parameters (negatively with HOMA2-%B and insulin levels and positively with HOMA2-%S) in women with PMO, resulting in an indicator of insulin sensitivity independent of age, body mass index, percent body fat, and undercarboxylated osteocalcin. Patients with serum 25(OH)D ≥45 ng/mL showed lower HOMA2-%B values and insulinemia and greater HOMA2-%S.Our results support the hypothesis that circulating 25(OH)D levels are related to improved glucose homeostasis in women with PMO. However, this relationship was apparent only in the presence of high circulating levels of 25(OH)D.

Cardiovascular diseases are a health problem throughout the world, especially in people with diabetes. The identification of cardiovascular disease biomarkers can improve risk stratification. Sclerostin is a modulator of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway in different tissues, and it has recently been linked to vascular biology. The current study aimed to evaluate the relationship between circulating sclerostin levels and cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular mortality in individuals with and without type 2 diabetes. We followed up a cohort of 130 participants (mean age 56.8 years; 48.5% females; 75 with type 2 diabetes; 46 with prevalent cardiovascular disease) in which serum sclerostin levels were measured at the baseline. Time to death (both of cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular causes) was assessed to establish the relationship between sclerostin and mortality. We found that serum sclerostin concentrations were significantly higher in patients with prevalent cardiovascular disease (p, The authors declare that this work was support in part by Consejería de Salud y Bienestar Social (Junta de Andalucía) Grants (PI0207-2016 to Dr. Beatriz García-Fontana), and Fondo de Investigación Sanitaria (Instituto de Salud Carlos III) Grants (PI12/02141, PI15/01207 to Dr. Manuel Muñoz-Torres), with co-financing from FEDER.
