On the clinical value of roentgenological observation of the clinical course of renal osteopathy (author's transl)
Fritsch, R., J. Freyschmidt, et al. (1980), Rontgenblatter 33(5): 207-16.
Abstract: Basing on radiological observation of the course of renal osteopathy confirmed both clinically and by bone biopsy in 96 patients -- the x-ray examination comprising primarily the entire axial skeleton including the proximal extremities and hands -- 60% of the patients showed mineralisation in their hands. The rest of the skeleton was affected only if there were identifiable alterations at the hands, although the affection of the axial skeleton was definitely lower in terms of percentage. Hence, radiological observation of renal osteopathy based on x-ray films of both hands with additional magnification technique appears both possible and meaningful.

Osteomalacia caused by hypovitaminosis with moderate secondary hyperparathyroidism (so-called intestinal osteopathy) on the basis of endemic sprue in a condition of post-celiac disease 1948 and insufficient ultraviolet exposure
Haas-Sigel, P. (1982), Z Rheumatol 41(2): 63-6.
Abstract: Painful sacro-iliac joints and hips in a 37 year old male patient caused difficulties in differential diagnosis because of scintigraphic positive scans over the sacro-iliac joints: intestinal hypovitaminotic osteomalacia or ankylosing spondylitis? Laboratory findings with low serum calcium, low urine calcium, high alkaline phosphatase and low 25-Hydroxy-vitamin D levels together with high levels of parathormone led to the final diagnosis of osteomalacia. Typical x-ray changes were also present. Prompt relief of clinical symptoms was achieved by high dose vitamin-D therapy.

Osteopathic versus orthopedic treatments for chronic epicondylopathia humeri radialis: a randomized controlled trial
Geldschlager, S. (2004), Forsch Komplementarmed Klass Naturheilkd 11(2): 93-7.
Abstract: BACKGROUND: The Epicondylopathia humeri radialis is mainly caused by an overload of the extensor muscles of the hand, the afflicted side is generally the dominant hand. There is a multitude of treatment methods, none of them, however, can guarantee success. OBJECTIVE: Can an osteopathic treatment of the chronic Epicondylopathia humeri radialis reduce the pain more effectively than an orthopedic treatment? STUDY DESIGN: Randomized controlled clinical study. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 53 patients were randomly distributed among examination and control group. They were treated for 8 weeks. The osteopathic treatment was done exclusively manually, with parietal, visceral, and craniosacral techniques, individually chosen for each patient. The orthopedic treatment was performed with chiropractic techniques, antiphlogistics, and mostly with injections of cortison. Four common tests were used, all 4 valuing pain and development of power: pressure pain test, Thomsen test, middlefinger extension test, and test for strength. Additionally a questionnaire about the attendant circumstances of the chronic Epicondylopathia humeri radialis was raised. RESULTS: Subjective pain sensation reduced from 50% to 33% (p < 0.01) in the intervention group and from 48% to 32% (p = 0.03) in the orthopedic group. A reduction of pain as well as an increase of power could be measured. The difference between the two treatment methods, however, was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: In this study it was possible to successfully treat the chronic Epicondylopathia humeri radialis with an osteopathic approach. A significant difference to an orthopedic treatment could not be proved.

Osteopathy and chiropractic
Klein, P. (1998), Rev Med Brux 19(4): A283-9.
Abstract: Osteopathy and chiropractic represent two challenging domains with a specific degree of multiplicity and complexity. This makes a complete appraisal difficult and impossible to appreciate in one single analysis. These disciplines exist since more than one century. An hermeneutic approach permits to understand their genesis but indicates also the nonsense of trying to transfer and apply earliest principles nowadays. It seems that most, but not all, practicing clinicians take into account recent developments in physiology, biomechanics and pathophysiology. Clinical studies and especially their meta-analyses on base of precise criteria permit to clarify the indications, therapeutic efficiency as well as socio-economic advantages. The meta-analyses point also at the poor quality of most clinical studies even if in the last years an improvement can be noted. Fundamental studies exist in both domains revealing interesting information that have permitted to reject several preconceived ideas and to clarifs others. Research topics as the morphology of the intervertebral disk before and after application of a manipulative technique are discussed. Results of experimental determination of global and segmental amplitudes in the cervical and in the lumbar spine during a manipulation in healthy subjects are reported. Finally the necessity but also the difficulties inherent to research studies in osteopathy and in chiropractic will be discussed.

Osteopathy and serum parathormone and 25-hydroxycholecalciferol levels in patients on long-term haemodialysis (author's transl)
Zazgornik, J., F. Kokot, et al. (1978), Wien Klin Wochenschr 90(14): 496-9.
Abstract: Skeletal radiological changes were analyzed in 22 patients treated by chronic haemodialysis. Furthermore, the serum parathormone and 25-hydroxycholecalciferol concentrations were determined. X-ray evidence of renal osteopathy was found in 13 patients (59%). Extraskeletal calcification, subperiostal erosions and cystoids were the predominant lesions. Serum iPTH concentrations were increased in 21 out of 22 haemodialyzed patients. The serum 25-hydroxycholecalciferol concentration was normal. The results of this study seem to indicate that other factors apart from secondary hyperparathyroidism have a share in the development of renal osteopathy in patients on chronic haemodialysis.

Osteopathy and therapeutic effect of 1 alpha-OH-D3 in severely handicapped children
Kimura, A. (1991), No To Hattatsu 23(3): 265-72.
Abstract: A total of 152 severely mentally and physically handicapped children were studied with regard to severity of bone atrophy assessed by microdensitometry (MD) and serum levels of calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), alkaline-phosphatase (Al-P) and Vitamin D metabolites in an intra-group comparative manner. They were divided into four groups; MA: mobile and anticonvulsant-receiving (58 cases), MN: mobile and anticonvulsant-non-receiving (48 cases), NA: immobile and anticonvulsant-receiving (27 cases), and NN: immobile and anticonvulsant-non-receiving (17 cases). Microdensitometric (MD) abnormalities were noted in about 80% of patients. MD parameters were worse in the immobile groups than in the mobile groups. Serum levels of Ca were significantly lower, and those of Al-P were significantly higher in the anticonvulsant-receiving groups than the anticonvulsant non-receiving groups. The serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH-D) was low in all groups. Fifty-eight children with MD abnormalities were treated with 1 alpha-OH-D3 and MD and hematological findings were improved specially in the mobile groups. This means that mobility plays an important role in the progress of osteopathy and treatment of severely mentally and physically handicapped children.

Osteopathy in diabetic foot syndrome
Dedov, II, P. V. Iushkov, et al. (2004), Arkh Patol 66(1): 10-4.
Abstract: Morphological characteristics of bone tissues were studied in the feet of patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 and 2 (DM1 and DM2). Osteoblasts and osteoclasts prevalence, the presence of collagen type III in the composition of newly formed bone were characteristic for DM1. Osteocytes prevalence and abundant granulation tissue in newly formed bone was a feature of DM2. The analysis of bone tissue resorption suggests that lacunar osteoclastic resorpsion is the main type in DM1 while periosteocytic osteolysis and smooth resorption are typical for DM2. Thus, osteolysis genesis and synthesis of bone tissue in DM1 and DM2 may be different.
