Filter by:The goal of this project is to develop a new noninvasive ultrasound based technique, called vibro-acoustic analysis (VAA), for evaluation of infant bone health with particular application in assessment of bone health in premature infants who are at risk for bone disease.
The aim of this study to determine the effect of soy phytoestrogens and acupuncture on osteoporosis in female athlete triad at adolescence age. It is hypothesized that: - There will be no statistical significant difference between the effects of soy phytoestrogens and acupuncture on osteoporosis in female athlete triad at adolescence age. RESEARCH QUESTION: Do soy phytoestrogens and acupuncture have an effect on bone mineral density in female athlete triad at adolescence age?
The principal objective of this study is to examine whether the addition of 100 g dried plum to the diets of men, regardless of their bone status, positively influences their indices of bone turnover in comparison with their corresponding baseline values and the control regimen.
This is a 12 months, randomized, multicenter, open-label, parallel-group study in postmenopausal women and male aged 50 years or old with osteoporosis or osteopenia in China to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different anti-osteoporpsis intervention strategies.
This two-year open-label pilot clinical trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of romosozumab to treat bone loss in females with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) and osteoporosis (OP). Participants will receive monthly injections of romosozumab during the first 12 months of the study. During the second year, participants will take oral alendronate tablets on a weekly basis.
This multi-center, randomized and exploratory clinical trial is designed to evaluate the effect of bone metabolism and blood sugar of evogliptin and dapagliflozin in the menopause female patients with osteopenia and type 2 diabetes. The trial will evaluate bone metabolism (bone markers and bone density) and blood sugar (AGE and glucose variability) after 12 weeks and 48 weeks. This clinical trial conducts in two arms, and each arm recruits 60 subjects.
The hypothesis for this study is that the GLP-1Ra Semaglutide has a positive effect on the balance between build-up and degradation as well as the strength of the bones in men and women aged 40-85 years at increased risk of bone fractures. Treatment involves injection of Semaglutide 1.34 mg/ml once a week or corresponding volume of placebo once a week for 52 weeks. The effect will be measured by bone markers in blood samples, bone scans, bone tissue tests (bone biopsy), and direct bone strength measured by microindentation at the start and end of the study.
This is an interventional study on nutraceuticals. It is a randomized controlled, open-label, prospective, single-center study that involves the enrollment of 82 patients with osteoporosis and 41 subjects without osteoporosis. The hypothesis the decarboxylated form of Osteocalcin (OC), called GluOC, represents a clinically useful marker for monitoring the effects of supplementation with vitamin K in association with anabolic treatment with teriparatide will be analyzed not only on bone but also on skeletal muscle and energy metabolism in patients with severe osteoporosis.
in Pakistan 9.9 million people are osteoporotic and 7.2 million amongst them are women. Globally after every 3 seconds there is occurrence of fragility fracture.In Pakistan females carries different risk factors based on distinct culture, environment, diet and lifestyle. So there is dire need to conduct more high quality clinical trials at National level in order to establish strong evidence in favor of low cost but highly effective exercise protocols for such a significant public health issue.
Osteoporosis is the most prevalent metabolic bone disease. Although osteoporosis is widely considered to be much more prevalent in women approximately 39% of new osteoporotic fractures estimated to have occurred worldwide in 2000 were in men. A number of studies investigate the effect of physical therapy modalities in treatment of osteoporosis. The use of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) represents an attractive alternative for osteoporosis. Previous studies suggested that pulsed electromagnetic field could be beneficial for increase bone mineral density in osteoporotic patients, but there is a lack of knowledge about the long term effect on several parameters.
