Filter by:To investigate a new incidence and preventive effect of menatetrenone on vertebral fracture in patients with osteoporosis who were randomly assigned to either treatment arm receiving daily dose of calcium supplement as a monotherapy (calcium monotherapy group) or menatetrenone plus calcium supplement as a combination therapy (menatetrenone combo therapy group) for 36 months, followed by a 12-month follow-up observation to examine the preventive effect on the fracture risk.
To compare the effects of 2 years of lasofoxifene treatment with 2 years of raloxifene 60 mg/day use and 2 years of placebo use on bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine.
The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of "Bisphosphonate Therapy for Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI)." We, the researchers at Indiana University School of Medicine, are characterizing the changes effected by oral bisphosphonate therapy and comparing them to a regimen of intravenous bisphosphonate therapy in a group of children with OI and also in children with other disorders that result in low bone mass and fractures.
The primary objective of this study is to determine efficacy of 70 mg alendronate once weekly compared to placebo. This will be measured by percent changes in lumbar spine(LS) bone mineral density(BMD) in adult cystic fibrosis(CF)patients after one year of treatment. The investigators hypothesize that in adult CF patients with osteopenia or osteoporosis, alendronate 70 mg once weekly will produce a mean increase from baseline in lumbar spine BMD that is greater than that observed with placebo at 12 months.
The Study to evaluate the clinical effect of "Gusuibu" lasts for 3 years. It aims to evaluate its effect on bone density of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Besides, its effects on the liver, kidney and the hematological influence will be evaluated, too.
An evidence-based quality improvement intervention will overcome multiple barriers to best practice and improve rates of diagnosis and effective treatment for osteoporosis in high-risk patients. The intervention will be directed at patients (education and counseling) and their primary care physicians (reminders and opinion leader generated and endorsed single page guidelines)
The purpose of this study is to determine whether supplementation with 5 mg vitamin K daily over a 2-year period will prevent bone loss in post-menopausal women with osteopenia.
The purpose of this study is to find out if Risedronate works to prevent osteoporosis after spinal cord injury.
The purpose of this study is to find out if standing and/or standing with vibration works for the treatment of osteoporosis for people with a spinal cord injury.
The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to estimate the effect of oral ibandronate sodium (Boniva) taken once monthly versus placebo on bone quality and strength at the proximal femur at one year.
