Abstract
Rett syndrome (RTT), an X-linked neurodevelopmental disorder primarilyaffecting girls, is characterized in part by osteopenia and increased risk of skeletal fractures. We hypothesized that decreased intestinal calcium (Ca) absorption relative to dietary Ca intake and increased renal Ca excretion might cause these problems in RTT. We measured fractional Ca absorption, urinary Ca loss, dietary Ca intake, and the hormonal factors regulating Ca metabolism to determine whether abnormalities in Ca balance might relate to poor bone mineralization in RTT girls and to evaluate the contribution of these factors to the overall dietary Ca needs of RTT girls. Ten RTT girls and 10 controls, matched for age, sex, and pubertal status, were given a 3 day constant Ca diet that mimicked their habitual intakes. At the end of each dietary period, girls received single doses of Ca (intravenous) and Ca (oral). Fractional urinary excretion of Ca, Ca, 24 hour urinary Ca, and urinary cortisol excretion were determined. Serum Ca, phosphorous, alkaline phosphatase, vitamin D metabolites, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and osteocalcin were measured in the postabsorptive state. Bone mineral content (BMC) was measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Fractio...Continue Reading
