Benchmark dose for cadmium-induced osteoporosis in women
(2010) In Toxicology Letters 197(2). p.123-127- Abstract
- We applied a hybrid approach to estimate the benchmark dose (BMD) and the lower 95% confidence limit (BMDL) for cadmium-induced bone effects in a population with low environmental exposure. Morning urine samples were collected by 794 Swedish women, aged 53-64 years, participating in a population-based study We measured urinary cadmium (U-Cd), a marker of long-term exposure, and bone mineral density, expressed as its T-score (reference 20-year old women) of the non-dominant wrist. BMD and BMDL, adjusted for relevant covariates. corresponding to an additional risk (BMR) of 5% or 10% were calculated, with the background risk at zero exposure set at 1% or 5%. With a BMR of 5% and a background risk of having low bone mineral density (at U-Cd=0)... (More)

With a BMR of 5% and a background risk of having low bone mineral density (at U-Cd=0) of 1% or 5% (corresponding to T-score cut-offs -2.75 and -2 09, respectively), the BMD of U-Cd ranged 1 8-3.7 mu g/g creatinine, and the BMDL ranged 1.0-2 1 mu g/g creatinine For a 5% BMR of osteoporosis (T-score < -2 5), the BMD was 29 mu g/g creatinine and the BMDL 1 6 mu g/g creatinine. The lowest obtained BMD of U-Cd for wrist bone mineral density was only slightly higher than the lowest reference concentration previously reported for cadmium-related kidney effects Our results provide additional scientific support for the low tolerably weekly intake (TWI) of cadmium set by the European Food Safety Authority in 2009.
