Risedronate in adults with osteogenesis imperfecta type I: Increased bone mineral density and decreased bone turnover, but high fracture rate persists

Summary Bisphosphonates can increase bone mineral density (BMD) in children with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). In this study of adults with OI type I, risedronate increased BMD at lumbar spine (but not total hip) and decreased bone turnover. However, the fracture rate in these patients remained high. Introduction Intravenous bisphosphonates given to children with OI can increase BMD and reduce fracture incidence. Oral and/or intravenous bisphosphonates may have similar effects in adults with OI. We completed an observational study of the effect of risedronate in adults with OI type I. Methods Thirty-two adults (mean age, 39 years) with OI type I were treated with risedronate (total dose, 35 mg weekly) for 24 months. Primary outcome measures were BMD changes at lumbar spine (LS) and total hip (TH). Secondary outcome measures were fracture incidence, bone pain, and change in bone turnover markers (serum procollagen type I aminopropeptide (P1NP) and bone ALP). A meta-analysis of published studies of oral bisphosphonates in adults and children with OI was performed. Results Twenty-seven participants (ten males and seventeen females) completed the study. BMD increased at LS by 3.9% (0.815 vs. 0.846 g/cm 2, p=0.007; mean Z-score, -1.93 vs. -1.58, p=0.002), with no significant change at TH. P1NP fell by 37% (p=0.00041), with no significant change in bone ALP (p=0.15). Bone pain did not change significantly (p=0.6). Fracture incidence remained high, with 25 clinical fractures and 10 major fractures in fourteen participants (0.18 major fractures per person per year), with historical data of 0.12 fractures per person per year. The meta-analysis did not demonstrate a significant difference in fracture incidence in patients with OI treated with oral bisphosphonates. Conclusions Risedronate in adults with OI type I results in modest but significant increases in BMD at LS, and decreased bone turnover. However, this may be insufficient to make a clinically significant difference to fracture incidence.

Obras para voz e piano de Frederico de Freitas: a vocalidade entre fado e canção

Durante a sua vida Frederico de Freitas abordou praticamente todos os géneros musicais, demonstrando uma imensa e notória versatilidade tanto na música erudita como na não erudita. O repertório para canto e piano representa uma parte substancial da sua obra vocal e, apesar de menos divulgado, não pode deixar de se considerar de grande importância. É precisamente neste género que mais se evidencia a versatilidade do seu estilo composicional. Este repertório abrange, assim, os géneros erudito e ligeiro, ou popular, pelo que as suas canções refletem a facilidade com que se movia de um meio para outro. Enquanto investigador, os estudos que realizou sobre música medieval portuguesa, o número elevadíssimo de recolhas de melodias tradicionais portuguesas que fez ao longo da vida e as investigações que realizou sobre o fado deram origem, paralelamente à composição de canções eruditas, a harmonizações de melodias medievais, a arranjos de temas na música tradicional e à composição de fados. Do ponto de vista interpretativo, a diversidade de estilos presentes nas canções de Frederico de Freitas exige do cantor lírico uma versatilidade e capacidade de se adaptar, ainda que mantendo a matiz da sua formação erudita, ao estilo próprio de cada canção. Com vista a uma interpretação estilística e vocalmente adequada, e por representarem um universo tão diferenciado, esta tese de doutoramento centra a sua atenção na problemática da vocalidade das suas canções.
