The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Prolia on lumbar spine BMD at 12 months.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare three care models for optimizing medications and preventing falls with broken bones in patients receiving rehabilitation after a hospitalization for a broken bone. The primary outcome is injurious falls, with secondary outcomes measuring how the process of care is changed and capturing patient-reported outcomes valued by stakeholders. The main questions this study aims to answer are: - Which of the three models is more effective in preventing falls with fractures? - What are the differences in patient-centered outcomes amongst the three models? These include pain, depression, anxiety, sleep, medication side effect burden, and fear of falling. - What are the differences in osteoporosis treatment and medication burden? The three care models are: a Deprescribing Care Model designed to reduce or stop fall-related medications, a Bone Heath Service Model designed to provide osteoporosis evaluation and management, and an Injury Prevention Service Model offering both services. 42 SNFs will participate in this study. The three models will be incorporated into the routine care of patients at these facilities who are receiving rehabilitation after a hospitalization for a fracture. All care models will be delivered remotely to patients in the SNF and after they transition home by a post-fracture nurse consultant supported by an interprofessional team. This study has three aims. See Detailed Description for more details. This ClinicalTrials.gov record represents the Comparative Effectiveness Aim of the protocol.
72 adult patients who underwent lumbar spine anteroposterior DXA and QCT examinations at Qianfoshan Hospital in Shandong Province from January 2019 to December 2022 were selected, with an interval of no more than 3 months between the two examinations for the same patient. 1. Record the patient's age, gender, height, and weight; Review the patient's past medical history (especially whether there is a history of brittle fractures, whether there is a history of using drugs that affect bone metabolism, etc.). 2. Retrieve the bone density values of the anterior lumbar vertebrae 1 to 4 measured by GE Healthcare Lunar Prodigy dual energy X-ray absorptiometry from the database, and take the average (DXA bone density value). According to the diagnostic criteria of the Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines for Primary Osteoporosis (2022), determine whether the patient has normal bone mass, decreased bone mass, or osteoporosis. 3. Identify the lumbar spine bone density values (QCT bone density values) measured by the GE Gemstone CTHD750 CT instrument from the database. According to the diagnostic criteria of the Chinese Quantitative CT (QCT) Diagnosis Guidelines for Osteoporosis (2018), determine whether the patient has normal bone mass, decreased bone mass, or osteoporosis. 4. Statistical analysis was conducted on the normal bone density, bone loss, and number of osteoporosis diagnosed by DXA and QCT respectively, in order to explore the differences in the detection rates of osteoporosis between these two monitoring methods. The data was analyzed and processed using SPSS 21.0 statistical software, and the count data was expressed as a rate (%) χ 2-test, P<0.05 indicates statistically significant difference; Explore whether the difference in detection rates between the two is related to factors such as weight; Calculate the detection rates of osteoporosis using two detection methods in patients who have experienced brittle fractures, and preliminarily determine which detection method is more accurate in determining osteoporosis.
This study aims to investigate the potential improvement in muscle function, compared to the placebo group, through the concurrent administration of denosumab and alfacalcidol over a one-year period in postmenopausal women with functional sarcopenia and osteoporosis aged 65 and older. The study is planned as a double-blinded randomized controlled trial, intending to recruit a total of 340 participants. Primary outcome is the improvement in SPPB score of 0.5 or more compared to the control group.
Milk and dairy products contain significant amounts of nutrients that contribute to optimal health - nutrients like calcium, vitamin D, and high-quality protein. Fermented milk products or fermented dairy products are dairy foods that have been fermented with certain bacteria. Yogurt is a fermented dairy product containing millions of beneficial bacteria. In this study, the invesgitagtors will look at the effect of milk (a non-fermented dairy product) and yogurt (a fermented dairy product) supplementation on bone health and the amount of fat and muscle mass in Canadian young adults over a 24-month period. While dairy products contain significant amounts of nutrients, the scientific community does not know the impact of long-term supplementation of fermented (i.e., yogurt) or non-fermented (i.e., milk) dairy food on bone health and the amount of fat and muscle mass in young adults. To fill this knowledge gap, the investigators will recruit participants with low calcium intake and assign them to three different groups: 1) milk (intervention) group; 2) yogurt (intervention) group; and 3) control group. The investigators will ask the participants in the milk group to drink 1.5 servings (375 mL) of milk per day for 24 months. Participants in the yogurt group will consume 2 servings (350 g) of yogurt per day for 24 months. Those in the control group will continue their usual diets. Using a randomized controlled trial design, the investigators will measure bone health parameters, hormonal indices related to bone metabolism, body composition (e.g., muscle mass, fat mass), and the number and composition of bacteria living in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The hypothesis is that supplementation with yogurt will have more positive effects on bone health indices, particularly femoral neck BMD as the primary outcome, than milk in Canadian adults aged 19-30 years. The secondary hypothesis is that supplementation with yogurt, as a fermented milk product, will have a more beneficial effect than milk on body composition measures. The data will provide valuable information for developing targeted health initiatives and marketing strategies regarding the benefits of fermented and non-fermented dairy product consumption.
osteoporosis is a common disease that affect most of postmenopausal women. various treatment procedures are used to avoid future complain among postmenopausal population.
Through the method of a clinical randomized controlled trial, patients meeting the study criteria are randomly assigned to either the Denosumab treatment group or a placebo group. After a treatment period of 12 months, the differences in osteoporosis and sarcopenia-related baseline assessment changes between the two groups are compared. This is to explore the effect of Denosumab in treating osteoporosis and its impact on sarcopenia. The goal is to evaluate the efficacy of Denosumab in treating osteoporosis in the domestic population and its related impact on sarcopenia, with the aim of providing an effective treatment option for the domestic population suffering from 'osteoporosis-sarcopenia syndrome.
This clinical trial was multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, phase III bridge study.
People with Alzheimer's disease are at an increased risk of bone fracture. Some studies have shown that those taking donepezil have a lower rate of bone fractures, but the reasons for this are unknown. The purpose of this study is to measure the effect of donepezil treatment on bone metabolism factors including bone mineral density, bone turnover markers, and bone quality. Participants in this study will have a bone density test and have blood samples collected at the baseline study visit. Participants will then be randomly assigned to donepezil or matching placebo to be taken daily by mouth for 12 months. Blood samples will be collected at 6 and 12 months. A repeat bone density test will be performed at 12 months. Participants will also complete questionnaires at each study visit.
