Filter by: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.
This study aims to explore the association between RA and osteoporosis and highlight the risk factors that RA patients have that may cause or affect osteoporosis progress.
In general NAFLD is a common denominal for a broad spectrum of damage to the liver, which can be due to hepatocyte injury, inflammatory processes and fibrosis. This is normally seen on liver biopsy and can range from milder forms (steatosis) to the more severe forms (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), advanced fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver failure). In these patients, advanced fibrosis is the major predictor of morbidity and liver-related mortality, and an accurate diagnosis of NASH and NAFLD is mandatory . NAFLD is closely associated with metabolic disorders, including central obesity, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, hyperglycaemia and persistent abnormalities of liver function tests. NAFLD was shown to be connected with diseases that are usually not dependent on obesity, such as sarcopenia and osteoporosis Target of the study : 1. Clarify predictive value of fibroscan and u/s in diagnosis of NAFLD. 2. Estimate the metabolic effect of NAFLD on bone density 3. Estimate the correlation between obesity , NAFLD and BMD
The aim of this observational study is to assess the obstacles and levers to the continuation of anti-osteoporotic treatment, and to identify those where action could be taken to improve the quality of care for fractured patients. The individual and collective stakes are high. Fracture is the most feared complication of osteoporosis. The current under-diagnosis and under-treatment of this chronic pathology exposes patients to a high risk of early re-fracture, with the associated morbidity and mortality. General practitioners have a major role to play in monitoring and coordinating patients' healthcare pathways. The aim of this study is to assess ways of improving osteoporosis management in order to improve quality of life and disability-free life expectancy for individual patients. The public health and economic stakes are equally high. It is by identifying the obstacles that prospective work on the key elements to be implemented could help optimize osteoporosis management.
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used for the control of gastric ulcer-gastritis, erosive esophagitis (gastroesophageal reflux disease), peptic ulcer disease (duodenal ulcer), and heartburn. Despite their efficacy, their use has been implicated in possibly causing fragility fractures (osteoporosis), hypomagnesemia (magnesium deficiency) and increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The current trial represents the investigators ongoing effort to discern whether these complications could be averted by effervescent calcium magnesium citrate (EffCaMgCit).
This observational study aims to learn about the psychosocial risk factors of osteoporosis (OP) patients. The main question it aims to answer is: - Which biopsychosocial factors affect OP patients' fragility fracture risk regarding the health behaviour model? Participants will fulfil these forms below here; - Sociodemographic and Clinical Information Form, - Fragility Fracture Information Form - Medication Adherence Report Scale - Brief Illness Perception Scale - The Beliefs About the Medicines Scale-Specific - The Short Assessment of Patient Satisfaction - Perceived Stress Scale - Multidimensional Perceived Social Support Scale - Brief Symptom Inventory - Depression and Anxiety - Health Behavior Assessment Scale
Clinical trials for osteoporosis are designed to assess the safety and effectiveness of novel osteoporosis treatments. These trials play a crucial role in establishing whether these new treatments outperform existing options and provide substantial evidence to support their adoption within the wider population. The primary aim of this particular study is to investigate the experiences of individuals diagnosed with osteoporosis who participate in a distinct clinical trial involving a medical intervention. The focus will be on closely monitoring the rates of trial completion and withdrawal among these participants.
rhBMP-2 has been used to promote spinal fusion. Despite potential risk of complications, satisfied results could be obtained with low dose of rhBMP-2. Effect of early bone formation has been validated using rat ovariectomy osteoporosis model. However, whether it functioned in patients with osteoporosis remained unknown. In this study, the investigators intend to investigate whether rhBMP-2 promotes early bone formation in patients with osteoporosis after transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF).
