Filter by:The goal of this randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to learn about, the effect of low dose vitamin D supplementation compares with placebo-controlled group on testosterone level in women with polycystic ovary syndrome. Half of Participants will receive vitamin D and metformin while other half placebo and metformin.
The study will evaluate the impact on uterine fibroids' volume of a combination of natural molecules including Epigallocatechin gallate, Vitamin D, D-chiro-inositol and Vitamin B6. The patients will be evaluated at baseline and after three months of treatment with placebo or product.
This study was a double-blind multicenter randomized controlled study.
The main objective of this study is to find whether supplemental vitamin d and calcium can reduce the incidence of stress fractures in recruits. These high-risk recruits undergo intensive training which elevated bone turnover, which requires adequate level of vitamin D and calcium in order to support bone health. It is hypothesized that supplemental vitamin d and calcium will decrease the occurrence of stress fractures.

Since vitamin D deficiency is a condition that affects a high percentage of individuals of all ages and given the attention on the possible role of the deficiency of this vitamin in the development of various chronic diseases, including cardiovascular and metabolic disease (obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, diabetes) and the correlation with mortality from major cardiovascular events (heart failure, myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death, stroke, atrial fibrillation and peripheral vascular disease), it is clear that in clinical practice it is necessary to provide screening tools characterized by a simple use, high efficacy and a low economic impact, useful to detect a possible deficiency state that has a significant impact on general health and therefore provide targeted interventions for diagnosis and supplementation when and if necessary. Therefore, the objective of this study project is part of the broader context of supporting, with reproducible and shared scientific data, operational protocols useful for the clinician to identify subjects potentially at risk of vitamin D deficiency as well as directing to the diagnostic and more effective therapeutic. Surveillance of vitamin D status should be a high priority in which easy-to-use and interpreted tools, such as the questionnaire developed for this study, could respond to the needs of early identification of subjects potentially at risk of hypovitaminosis D, thus supporting the work of the clinician.
There is an association between adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and low bone mass which has been reported to be a significant prognostic factor for curve progression. Given that dietary calcium (Ca) intake and serum Vit-D levels were also low in AIS, we therefore propose a randomized double-blinded placebo-controlled trial to evaluate if daily [500mg Ca + 800 IU Vit-D] can improve bone health and prevent curve progression in AIS. Immature AIS girls with Cobb angle 10-20 degrees will be randomized either to the Treatment or Placebo group with 3-year of treatment. The main outcome measures for evaluation for those who have completed the 3-year treatment and have reached skeletal maturity at the end of 3-year treatment include: (1) percentage of patients with increase in Cobb angle≥6 degrees and (2) percentage of patients who require bracing. Bone measurements using advanced image acquisition technology(HR-pQCT) to assess bone health will also be evaluated.
