Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare bone disease caused by inactivating mutations in the ALPL gene, which encodes tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). Patients with HPP have varied clinical manifestations and are classified based on the age of onset and severity. Recently, enzyme replacement therapy using bone-targeted recombinant alkaline phosphatase (ALP) has been developed, leading to improvement in the prognosis of patients with life-threatening HPP. Considering these recent advances, clinical practice guidelines have been generated to provide physicians with guides for standard medical care for HPP and to support their clinical decisions. A task force was convened for this purpose, and twenty-one clinical questions (CQs) were formulated, addressing the issues of clinical manifestations and diagnosis (7 CQs) and those of management and treatment (14 CQs). A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed/MEDLINE, and evidence-based recommendations were developed. The guidelines have been modified according to the evaluations and suggestions from the Clinical Guideline Committee of The Japanese Society for Pediatric Endocrinology (JSPE) and public comments obtained from the members of the JSPE and a Japanese HPP patient group, and then approved by the Board of Councils of the JSPE. We anticipate that the guidelines will be revised regularly and updated.

Vitamin D is indispensable for the maintenance of bone and mineral health. Inadequate vitamin D action increases the risk for various musculoskeletal/mineral events including fracture, fall, secondary hyperparathyroidism, diminished response to antiresorptives, rickets/osteomalacia, and hypocalcemia. Its most common cause in recent years is vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency, clinically defined by low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level. Guidelines for vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency defined by serum 25(OH)D concentrations have been published all over the world. In Japan, however, the information on the associations between serum 25(OH)D and bone and mineral disorders has not been widely shared among healthcare providers, partly because its measurement had not been reimbursed with national medical insurance policy until August 2016. We have set out to collect and analyze Japanese data on the relationship between serum 25(OH)D concentration and bone and mineral events. Integrating these domestic data and published guidelines worldwide, here we present the following assessment criteria for vitamin D sufficiency/insufficiency/deficiency using serum 25(OH)D level in Japan. 1) Serum 25(OH)D level equal to or above 30 ng/ml is considered to be vitamin D sufficient. 2) Serum 25(OH)D level less than 30 ng/ml but not less than 20 ng/ml is considered to be vitamin D insufficient. 3) Serum 25(OH)D level less than 20 ng/ml is considered to be vitamin D deficient. We believe that these criteria will be clinically helpful in the assessment of serum 25(OH)D concentrations and further expect that they will form a basis for the future development of guidelines for the management of vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency.

Inorganic phosphate (Pi) in the mammalian body is balanced by its influx and efflux through the intestines, kidneys, bones, and soft tissues, at which several sodium/Pi co-transporters mediate its active transport. Pi homeostasis is achieved through the complex counter-regulatory feedback balance between fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D), and parathyroid hormone. FGF23, which is mainly produced by osteocytes in bone, plays a central role in Pi homeostasis and exerts its effects by binding to the FGF receptor (FGFR) and αKlotho in distant target organs. In the kidneys, the main target, FGF23 promotes the excretion of Pi and suppresses the production of 1,25(OH)2D. Deficient and excess FGF23 result in hyperphosphatemia and hypophosphatemia, respectively. FGF23-related hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia include tumor-induced osteomalacia and various genetic diseases, such as X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets. Coverage by the national health insurance system in Japan for the measurement of FGF23 and the approval of burosumab, an FGF23-neutralizing antibody, have had a significant impact on the diagnosis and treatment of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia. Some of the molecules responsible for genetic hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia are highly expressed in osteocytes and function as local regulators of FGF23 production. A number of systemic factors also regulate FGF23 levels. Although the mechanisms responsible for Pi sensing in mammals have not yet been elucidated in detail, recent studies have suggested the involvement of FGFR1. The further clarification of the mechanisms by which osteocytes detect Pi levels and regulate FGF23 production will lead to the development of better strategies to treat hyperphosphatemic and hypophosphatemic conditions.

Serum phosphate levels are regulated in both calcium-dependent and -independent fashions. Active vitamin D increases while PTH decreases serum phosphate levels in association with the elevation of serum calcium. On the other hand, a calcium-independent phosphaturic factor, historically called phosphatonin is believed to exert a physiological function based on findings in hereditary and tumor-induced diseases characterized by hypophosphatemia with normocalcemia. Among them, autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR) has contributed greatly to its elucidation because the gene responsible for ADHR encodes fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) that has been found to have a phosphaturic effect. In addition, FGF23 has been proved to be involved in most cases of oncogenic osteomalacia and X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets that are also characterized by hypophosphatemia and normocalcemia. Moreover, familial tumoral calcinosis, which represents the metabolic mirror image of hypophosphatemic conditions, is caused by a loss-of-function mutation in the FGF23 gene in some patients. Very recently, hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets with hypercalciuria has been found to be caused by mutations in the SLC34A1 gene which encodes a type of sodium phosphate cotransporter. These findings may provide new strategies for treating patients with abnormal phosphate metabolism.

Achondroplasia (ACH) is a skeletal dysplasia that presents with limb shortening, short stature, and characteristic facial configuration. ACH is caused by mutations of the FGFR3 gene, leading to constantly activated FGFR3 and activation of its downstream intracellular signaling pathway. This results in the suppression of chondrocyte differentiation and proliferation, which in turn impairs endochondral ossification and causes short-limb short stature. ACH also causes characteristic clinical symptoms, including foramen magnum narrowing, ventricular enlargement, sleep apnea, upper airway stenosis, otitis media, a narrow thorax, spinal canal stenosis, spinal kyphosis, and deformities of the lower extremities. Although outside Japan, papers on health supervision are available, they are based on reports and questionnaire survey results. Considering the scarcity of high levels of evidence and clinical guidelines for patients with ACH, clinical practical guidelines have been developed to assist both healthcare professionals and patients in making appropriate decisions in specific clinical situations. Eleven clinical questions were established and a systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed/MEDLINE. Evidence-based recommendations were developed, and the guidelines describe the recommendations related to the clinical management of ACH. We anticipate that these clinical practice guidelines for ACH will be useful for healthcare professionals and patients alike.
