Filter by:The goal of this retrospective/observational study is to compare the clinical outcomes between the high-cumulative-dose group and the low- cumulative-dose group of oral/inhaled corticosteroid in the long-term management of asthma patients. The main hypothesis are: i. High cumulative dose of corticosteroid is related to the prevalence of osteoporosis/osteoporosis in the long-term management of adult asthma. ii. High cumulative dose of corticosteroid can affect populations that have a high-risk of osteoporosis (females over 50 years of age). iii. High cumulative dose of corticosteroid is related to the prevalence of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia in the long-term management of adult asthma. iv. High cumulative dose of corticosteroid affects bone metabolism-related diagnostic tests and laboratory values and the prescription rate of bone metabolism-related medications.
To assess the frequency and risk factors of decreased bone mineral density (BMD) and vertebral fractures in Danish patients with sarcoidosis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of the increase in the physical activity level of women at risk for osteoporosis in the post-menopausal period on the physical fitness, functional fitness age and quality of life. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does the increase in the level of physical activity positively affect the physical fitness parameters (strength, endurance, balance, agility and flexibility), functional fitness ages and quality of life of post-menopausal women with moderate to high osteoporosis risk? Participants in the intervention group were given the Otago Exercise Program, which will last 3 days a week and an average of 30 minutes per day for 12 weeks. The exercises were done one-by-one with a physiotherapist. No program were applied to the participants in the control group, and they were asked to continue their daily living activities in the same way. Researchers will compare two groups to see if there is a difference in effects of Otogo Exercise Program on physical fitness, functional fitness age, and quality of life.
The goal of this randomized-controlled trial is to compare the effect of rhythmic estrogen treatment to continuous estrogen treatment on bone turnover in healthy postmenopausal women. The main question it aims to answer are: • Does rhythmic estrogen lead to increased bone formation in healthy postmenopausal women, compared to continuous estrogen? Participants will receive one of the following treatments for a duration of 16 weeks: - Rhythmic estradiol: Alternating 4-week cycles consisting of transdermal 17-β-estradiol 25μg/24hrs for two weeks, followed by two weeks of transdermal 17-β-estradiol 50μg/24hrs. Estradiol therapy will be combined with continuous oral micronized progesterone 100mg once daily. - Low-dose continuous estradiol: Continuous transdermal 17-β-estradiol 25μg/24hrs, combined with continuous oral micronized progesterone 100mg daily once daily. - Standard-dose continuous estradiol: Continuous transdermal 17-β-estradiol 50μg/24hrs, combined with continuous oral micronized progesterone 100mg daily once daily. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare rhythmic estradiol to continuous estradiol to see if rhythmic estradiol improves bone formation in postmenopausal women.
Summary Purpose: To examine the effect of the education program to increase osteoporosis awareness given to women aged 18-49. The research is carry out as a randomized controlled experimental in a pretest-posttest design. The population of the research consisted of women registered in four different women's cultural and education centers affiliated with Ankara Altındağ Municipality between the dates of data collection.The number of women to be included in the sample of the study was determined as 70 women, 35 of which were in the control group, in the analysis made using the G*Power 3.1.9.2 program. Intervention and control groups were assigned to the groups by randomization method. The data collection tools used in the research are the Introductory Information Form, the Osteoporosis Health Belief Scale and the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale. In the implementation of the research, the education program to increase awareness of osteoporosis was carried out on certain days of the week with groups of at least two and at most five women. The education program aimed at raising awareness of osteoporosis was carried out in 3 sessions, one week apart, and each session lasted approximately 40-50 minutes. Before the first session of the education program, pre-test data were collected from the intervention and control groups. Post-test data will be collected through the Osteoporosis Health Belief Scale and the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale from women in the intervention and control groups twelve weeks after finishing the education program.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of bicarbonate-calcium water for the prevention of osteoporosis. Participants are women in pre- or post- menopausal state. The intervention group must drink bicarbonate-calcium water while the control group low mineral water
Osteoporosis is a condition that describes compromised skeletal microarchitecture in general, with clinical signs of decreased bone mineral density. Patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection are at increased risk for developing osteoporosis. Identifying whether patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection have information and awareness about this disease is crucial. This study is aimed to investigate awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection.

Identifying whether patients with hepatitis c virus infection have information and awareness about this disease is crucial. This study is aimed to investigate awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in patients with hepatitis c virus infection.

Patients with hepatitis b virus infection are at increased risk for developing osteoporosis. Identifying whether patients with hepatitis b virus infection have information and awareness about this disease is crucial. This study is aimed to investigate awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in patients with hepatitis b virus infection.
Osteoporosis is a condition that describes compromised skeletal microarchitecture in general, with clinical signs of decreased bone mineral density. Multiple sclerosis patients are at increased risk for developing osteoporosis. Identifying whether multiple sclerosis patients have information and awareness about this disease is crucial. This study is aimed to investigate awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in multiple sclerosis patients.
