Effect of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and aluminum on fluoride metabolism in man. 1980

H Spencer, and L Kramer, and D Osis, and E Wiatrowski, and C Norris, and M Lender

The studies of the interaction of fluoride with minerals in man have shown that: 1. in contrast to observations made in animals, the high intake of calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium in amounts that can be used in humans did not inhibit the intestinal absorption of fluoride in man; 2. the lack of effect of added calcium, given in divided doses, on the intestinal absorption of fluoride has relevance for the use of a high calcium intake during fluoride therapy for osteoporosis; 3. aluminum as the hydroxide, commonly used as an antacid in clinical medicine, significantly decreases the intestinal absorption of fluoride. This inhibitory effect, in conjunction with the known effects of aluminum-containing antacids in causing calcium loss as a consequence of phosphorus depletion, may contribute to the development of skeletal demineralization.

D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.

D010001 Osteitis Deformans A disease marked by repeated episodes of increased bone resorption followed by excessive attempts at repair, resulting in weakened, deformed bones of increased mass. The resultant architecture of the bone assumes a mosaic pattern in which the fibers take on a haphazard pattern instead of the normal parallel symmetry.

D010024 Osteoporosis Reduction of bone mass without alteration in the composition of bone, leading to fractures. Primary osteoporosis can be of two major types: postmenopausal osteoporosis (OSTEOPOROSIS, POSTMENOPAUSAL) and age-related or senile osteoporosis.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
