Description

本発明は、尿中のマグネシウム/クレアチニン比を指標として、対象者のカルシウム摂取量の過不足を判定する方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for determining excess or deficiency of calcium intake of a subject using the magnesium / creatinine ratio in urine as an index.

日本人にとって、カルシウムは、依然としてどの年代においても不足している栄養素である。カルシウム不足は、骨や歯が弱くなるだけでなく、高齢者や特に閉経期の女性においては骨粗鬆症のリスクファクターとなる。自身のカルシウム摂取量もしくは不足量を客観的かつ簡便に推定する技術へのニーズが高まっている。
対象者のカルシウム摂取量を推定する方法として、主に、対象者の尿から推定する方法と、食事記録から推定する方法の2つが挙げられる。
For the Japanese, calcium is still a nutrient deficient in all ages. Calcium deficiency not only weakens bones and teeth, but is also a risk factor for osteoporosis in the elderly and especially in menopausal women. There is an increasing need for a technique for objectively and easily estimating one's own calcium intake or deficiency.
There are mainly two methods for estimating the calcium intake of the subject, a method of estimating from the subject's urine and a method of estimating from the dietary record.

尿から推定する方法として、これまで、24時間蓄尿中のカルシウム濃度と、採尿前の連続した4日間の食事記録から算出した平均1日カルシウム摂取量との間には相関関係があるものの、その相関係数は0.276と低いことが報告されている(非特許文献1)。また、24時間蓄尿中のカルシウム量を体重で除した値と、食物摂取頻度調査(FFQg法)を基に算出した平均のカルシウム摂取量との間には相関関係がない(相関係数R=−0.1193)こと、24時間蓄尿中のマグネシウム量を体重で除した値と、食物摂取頻度調査を基に算出した平均のカルシウム摂取量との間にも相関関係がない(相関係数R=0.1089)ことが知られている(非特許文献2)。 As a method of estimating from urine, there is a correlation between the calcium concentration during 24-hour urine storage and the average daily calcium intake calculated from the dietary records for 4 consecutive days before urine collection. It has been reported that the correlation coefficient is as low as 0.276 (Non-Patent Document 1). In addition, there is no correlation between the value obtained by dividing the amount of calcium in 24-hour urine storage by body weight and the average amount of calcium intake calculated based on the food intake frequency survey (FFQg method) (correlation coefficient R =). -0.1193) There is no correlation between the value obtained by dividing the amount of magnesium in 24-hour urine storage by body weight and the average amount of calcium intake calculated based on the food intake frequency survey (correlation coefficient R). = 0.1089) is known (Non-Patent Document 2).

18〜33歳の若い女性を対象としたヒト介入試験において、24時間蓄尿中のカルシウム量を体重で除した値と、過去4日間の食事記録から算出した平均1日カルシウム摂取量を体重で除した値との間には、相関がある(R=0.402、p<0.001)ことが知られている(非特許文献3)。しかしながら、女性は閉経期、エストロゲンの分泌が低下することにより、骨などからのカルシウム流出が増え、カルシウムの吸収と排泄のバランスが変化するため、若い女性のみを対象とした試験は、閉経期または高齢の女性にまで外挿できない。また、カルシウムの吸収と排泄のバランスは、性差や年齢差があることも知られている。より広い年代の男女に外挿できるカルシウム摂取量の推定方法が望まれる。 In a human intervention study of young women aged 18 to 33 years, the value obtained by dividing the amount of calcium in 24-hour urine storage by body weight and the average daily calcium intake calculated from the dietary records of the past 4 days were divided by body weight. It is known that there is a correlation (R = 0.402, p <0.001) with the values obtained (Non-Patent Document 3). However, during menopause, decreased estrogen secretion increases calcium outflow from bones and changes the balance between calcium absorption and excretion. Therefore, studies targeting only young women are conducted during menopause or It cannot be externalized even to elderly women. It is also known that there are gender and age differences in the balance between calcium absorption and excretion. A method for estimating calcium intake that can be extrapolated to men and women of a wider age is desired.

尿中成分濃度は食事や水分摂取、発汗などの影響を受けやすく、そのときの尿量によって大きく変動するため、24時間蓄尿を用いてカルシウムの摂取量を推定する方法が一般的に用いられる。24時間蓄尿は対象者の負担が大きいため、随時尿を用いて対象者の負担を軽減したカルシウム摂取量を推定する方法もある。随時尿を用いてカルシウムの摂取量を推定する場合、前述のとおり、尿中成分濃度は食事や水分摂取、発汗などの影響を受けやすく、尿の濃さによって成分濃度が大きく変動するため、尿の濃度を補正する必要があり、その手段として、同時に測定したクレアチニン値との比率を求めるクレアチニン補正が行われている。 Since the urinary component concentration is easily affected by food, water intake, sweating, etc. and varies greatly depending on the urine volume at that time, a method of estimating calcium intake using 24-hour urine storage is generally used. Since the burden on the subject is heavy for 24-hour urine collection, there is also a method of estimating the calcium intake that reduces the burden on the subject by using urine at any time. When estimating calcium intake using urine at any time, as mentioned above, the urinary component concentration is easily affected by diet, water intake, sweating, etc., and the component concentration fluctuates greatly depending on the urine concentration. It is necessary to correct the concentration of creatinine, and as a means for this, creatinine correction is performed to obtain the ratio with the creatinine value measured at the same time.

食事記録からカルシウム摂取量を推定する方法として、文部科学省が調査・公表しており、約2200種の食品について食品可食部100gあたりの栄養素が記載された「日本食品標準成分表」が一般的に用いられる。本発明において用いた算出方法としては、食事記録などにより判定した食品別の摂取量と、「日本食品標準成分表」とを照らすことにより、対象者が摂取した栄養素を算出した。 As a method of estimating calcium intake from meal records, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has investigated and published, and the "Standard Tables of Food Composition in Japan", which describes the nutrients per 100 g of food edible portion for about 2200 kinds of foods, is common. Used for As the calculation method used in the present invention, the nutrients ingested by the subject were calculated by comparing the intake amount for each food determined by meal records and the like with the "Standard Tables of Food Composition in Japan".

上記のとおり、カルシウム摂取量の推定方法として、従来は24時間蓄尿を用いることが一般的であるが、それでは対象者の負担が大きい。一方、食事記録からカルシウム摂取量を推定する方法もあるが、従来は食事記録をとらなければならず、こちらも対象者の負担が大きい。 As described above, as a method for estimating calcium intake, it has been common to use 24-hour urine collection in the past, but this puts a heavy burden on the subject. On the other hand, there is also a method of estimating calcium intake from meal records, but in the past, meal records had to be taken, which also puts a heavy burden on the subject.

本出願人は、随時尿中のマグネシウムの多寡を指標として、採尿前の食事記録から推定したカルシウム摂取量との間に高い相関があることを見出し、本発明を完成した。 The applicant has completed the present invention by finding that there is a high correlation with the calcium intake estimated from the dietary record before urine collection, using the amount of magnesium in urine as an index at any time.

以下、本発明について詳細に説明する。
本発明のカルシウム摂取量の過不足判定方法は、随時尿中のマグネシウム/クレアチニン比を指標とすることを特徴とする。
随時尿を採取するタイミングとして、特に限定されるものではないが、1日の中で最初に食事を摂取するまでに採取することが好ましく、起床後すぐに採取する第一尿が特に好ましい。
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
The method for determining excess or deficiency of calcium intake of the present invention is characterized in that the magnesium / creatinine ratio in urine is used as an index at any time.
The timing of collecting urine at any time is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to collect urine before the first meal in the day, and the first urine collected immediately after waking up is particularly preferable.

本発明者らは、随時尿中のマグネシウム/クレアチニン比とカルシウム摂取量とが相関を有することを見出し、下記近似式を得た。
(近似式)
カルシウム摂取量[mg/1000kcal]
=(a)×(随時尿中のマグネシウム/クレアチニン比[mg/g])+(b)
(a)は1〜2が好ましく、1.1〜1.6がさらに好ましい。(b)は100〜300が好ましく、150〜260がさらに好ましい。
The present inventors have found that the magnesium / creatinine ratio in urine and the calcium intake have a correlation from time to time, and obtained the following approximate formula.
(Approximate formula)
Calcium intake [mg / 1000kcal]
= (A) × (magnesium / creatinine ratio in urine [mg / g] at any time) + (b)
(A) is preferably 1 to 2, and more preferably 1.1 to 1.6. (B) is preferably 100 to 300, more preferably 150 to 260.

この近似式に基づき、対象者の随時尿中のマグネシウム/クレアチニン比の値から、対象者のカルシウム摂取量を推定することができる。また、この推定したカルシウム摂取量と、ヒトが1日に必要とするカルシウムの基準量に基づき、カルシウムの過不足を判定することができる。ヒトが1日に必要とするカルシウムの基準量は、特に制限されないが、好適に、厚生労働省が示す「日本人の食事摂取基準」が示す値を挙げることができる。 Based on this approximate expression, the calcium intake of the subject can be estimated from the value of the magnesium / creatinine ratio in the subject's urine at any time. In addition, the excess or deficiency of calcium can be determined based on the estimated calcium intake and the reference amount of calcium required by humans per day. The standard amount of calcium required by humans per day is not particularly limited, but preferably, the value indicated by the "Japanese dietary intake standard" indicated by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare can be mentioned.

上記近似式により推定されるカルシウム摂取量は、採尿日を始点として採尿前3月期間内から選択される期間内に摂取したカルシウム量であることが好ましい。この期間は、採尿日を始点として採尿前3月期間内であれば特に制限されず、例えば、採尿前3月間、採尿前30日間、採尿前7日間、採尿前3日間、採尿日1日間等から選択することができる。一度の食事内容による変動を抑えるために、ある程度の長さの期間であることが好ましく、採尿日を始点として採尿前3〜30日間程度であることが好ましい。また、このカルシウム摂取量は、摂取期間内に摂取した1日平均のカルシウム摂取量とすることもできる。 The calcium intake estimated by the above approximate formula is preferably the amount of calcium ingested within a period selected from the period of 3 months before urine collection starting from the urine collection date. This period is not particularly limited as long as it is within the period of 3 months before urine collection starting from the urine collection date. For example, 3 months before urine collection, 30 days before urine collection, 7 days before urine collection, 3 days before urine collection, 1 day before urine collection, etc. You can choose from. In order to suppress fluctuations due to the content of one meal, it is preferable that the period is a certain length, and it is preferably about 3 to 30 days before urine collection starting from the urine collection day. In addition, this calcium intake can be the average daily calcium intake taken during the intake period.

本発明で用いる採尿容器は、病院や検査機関等で実施されている尿検査のために使用される尿中成分の変質を引き起こさない形状、材質であれば特に限定されず用いることができる。採尿容器には、尿中成分の変質を抑制するための安定化剤をあらかじめ添加しておくことが好ましい。ここで、尿中成分の安定化剤として、クエン酸、シュウ酸、塩酸、酒石酸、アスコルビン酸を用いることができ、好適にはクエン酸を用いることができる。採尿容器に尿を定容量加えた際、前記安定化剤の終濃度は、尿中成分を安定化させる観点で0.01M〜1Mが好ましく、0.05〜0.5Mがさらに好ましい。 The urine collection container used in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it has a shape and material that does not cause deterioration of urine components used for urinalysis performed in hospitals, inspection institutions, and the like. It is preferable to add a stabilizer for suppressing deterioration of urine components to the urine collection container in advance. Here, citric acid, oxalic acid, hydrochloric acid, tartaric acid, and ascorbic acid can be used as the stabilizer of the urinary component, and citric acid can be preferably used. When a constant volume of urine is added to the urine collection container, the final concentration of the stabilizer is preferably 0.01 M to 1 M, more preferably 0.05 to 0.5 M from the viewpoint of stabilizing the urine component.

上記近似式から推定したカルシウム摂取量と、ヒトが1日に必要とするカルシウムの基準量に基づき、対象者のカルシウム不足量を求めることができる。そして、対象者毎に必要な不足量のカルシウムを配合した経口組成物を提供することができ、対象者は1日に必要とするカルシウム量を補うことができる。 Based on the calcium intake estimated from the above approximation formula and the reference amount of calcium required by humans per day, the calcium deficiency amount of the subject can be obtained. Then, it is possible to provide an oral composition containing a required amount of calcium for each subject, and the subject can supplement the amount of calcium required for one day.

30〜60代の117名の男女を対象に、食事から摂取したカルシウム、カロリーの量および、尿中のカルシウム(Ca)、マグネシウム(Mg)、クレアチニン(Cre)濃度を測定した。以降、カルシウムはCa、マグネシウムはMg、クレアチニンはCreと略記する。 The amount of calcium and calories ingested from the diet and the concentrations of calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and creatinine (Cre) in urine were measured in 117 men and women in their 30s and 60s. Hereinafter, calcium is abbreviated as Ca, magnesium is abbreviated as Mg, and creatinine is abbreviated as Cre.

(Ca摂取量)
対象者に、30日間毎食の食事内容(食品と摂取量)を記録させた。食事記録より判定した食品別の摂取量を、「日本食品標準成分表2015年版(七訂)」に照らすことにより、対象者のCa摂取量とカロリー摂取量を算出した。
採尿前日の夕食において、Ca摂取量をカロリー摂取量で除して、1000kcalあたりのCa摂取量を求め、採尿前日夕食のCa摂取量[mg/1000kcal]とした。同様に、採尿前3日間ならびに採尿前30日間の1日Ca摂取量の平均を、1日摂取カロリーの平均で除して、1000kcalあたりのCa摂取量を求め、それぞれ、採尿前3日間の平均Ca摂取量[mg/1000kcal/day]、採尿前30日間の平均Ca摂取量[mg/1000kcal/day]とした。
(Ca intake)
Subjects were asked to record the dietary content (food and intake) of each meal for 30 days. The Ca intake and calorie intake of the subject were calculated by comparing the intake of each food determined from the dietary record with the "Standard Tables of Food Composition in Japan 2015 (7th edition)".
In the supper on the day before urine collection, the Ca intake was divided by the calorie intake to obtain the Ca intake per 1000 kcal, which was used as the Ca intake [mg / 1000 kcal] in the supper on the day before urine collection. Similarly, the average daily Ca intake for 3 days before urine collection and 30 days before urine collection was divided by the average daily calorie intake to obtain the Ca intake per 1000 kcal, and the average for each of the 3 days before urine collection was obtained. The Ca intake [mg / 1000 kcal / day] and the average Ca intake [mg / 1000 kcal / day] for 30 days before urine collection were used.

(採尿)
対象者に、試験最終日の早朝第一尿(起床後すぐの尿)を10mL容量の採尿容器に2本採取させた。
採尿容器2本中1本は、Mgを測定するためのものであり、安定化剤として、終濃度が0.1Mとなるよう、あらかじめ安定化剤(クエン酸)を加えた。
採尿容器2本中別の1本は、CaおよびCreを測定するためのものであり、安定化剤を加えなかった。
(Urine collection)
The subjects were asked to collect two bottles of the first urine (urine immediately after waking up) in the early morning on the final day of the test in a 10 mL volume urine collection container.
One of the two urine collection containers is for measuring Mg, and as a stabilizer, a stabilizer (citric acid) was added in advance so that the final concentration was 0.1 M.
Another one of the two urine collection containers was for measuring Ca and Cre, and no stabilizer was added.

(尿中成分の定量)
尿中Ca濃度はシカフィットCa試薬(CPZ−IIIキレート比色法、極東製薬工業株式会社)、尿中Mg濃度はアクアオートカイノスMg-II試薬(ICDH法、株式会社カイノス)、尿中Cre濃度はシカリキッド−N CRE試薬(酵素法、関東化学株式会社)を用い、検体検査機器(ACCUTE RX キヤノンメディカルシステムズ株式会社)により自動分析した。
分析結果より、尿中のCa濃度[mg/mL]、Mg濃度[mg/mL]およびCre濃度[g/mL]、Ca/Cre比[mg/g]、Mg/Cre比[mg/g]を算出した。
(Quantification of urinary components)
Urinary Ca concentration is Cikafit Ca reagent (CPZ-III chelate colorimetric method, Far East Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), urinary Mg concentration is Aqua Autokinos Mg-II reagent (ICDH method, Kainos Co., Ltd.), urinary Cre concentration Was automatically analyzed by a sample testing device (ACCUTE RX Canon Medical Systems Co., Ltd.) using the Shikarikid-N CRE reagent (enzyme method, Kanto Chemical Co., Inc.).
From the analysis results, Ca concentration [mg / mL], Mg concentration [mg / mL] and Cre concentration [g / mL], Ca / Cre ratio [mg / g], Mg / Cre ratio [mg / g] in urine Was calculated.

(相関係数および近似式)
カルシウム摂取量(採尿前日夕食のCa摂取量、採尿前3日間の1日平均Ca摂取量、採尿前30日間の1日平均Ca摂取量)と、尿中成分(Ca濃度、Ca/Cre比、Mg濃度ならびにMg/Cre比)との相関係数および近似式を求めた。結果を表1に示す。
(Correlation coefficient and approximation formula)

〔result〕
(Example 1)
There is a correlation between the urinary Mg / Cre ratio and the Ca intake of dinner the day before urine collection, and the correlation coefficient is R = 0.253, statistical value P = 0.006, and the approximate formula "Ca intake = 1". .525 x urinary Mg / Cre ratio + 183.8 "was obtained.
(Example 2)
There is a high correlation between the urinary Mg / Cre ratio and the daily average Ca intake for 3 days before urine collection, and the correlation coefficient is R = 0.389, statistical value P = 0.00001, approximate formula " Ca intake = 1.507 x urinary Mg / Cre ratio + 214.4 "was obtained.
(Example 3)
There is a high correlation between the urinary Mg / Cre ratio and the daily average Ca intake for 30 days before urine collection, and the correlation coefficient is R = 0.343, statistical value P = 0.0002, approximate formula " Ca intake = 1.166 x urinary Mg / Cre ratio + 238.3 "was obtained.
(Comparative Examples 1 to 9)
As shown in Comparative Examples 1 to 9, the urinary Mg concentration, the urinary Ca concentration, and the urinary Ca / Cre ratio did not show any correlation with the Ca intake.

実施例1〜3のとおり、尿中Mg/Cre比とCa摂取量との間には高い相関があり、近似式を用いることにより、対象者の尿中Mg/Cre比から、対象者のCa摂取量を従来よりも高い精度で、かつ簡便に推定することができた。 As shown in Examples 1 to 3, there is a high correlation between the urinary Mg / Cre ratio and the Ca intake, and by using an approximate formula, the subject's Ca can be obtained from the subject's urinary Mg / Cre ratio. The intake amount could be estimated more accurately and easily than before.
