Post-Menopausal Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Postmenopausal Osteoporosis is the medical term used for the disease that weakens bones in women, increasing the risk of sudden and unexpected fractures. Literally meaning "porous bone," osteoporosis results in an increased loss of bone mass and strength. The disease often progresses without any symptoms or pain. Many times, osteoporosis ...

While highly effective both RYGB and SG may lead to increased bone resorption, decreased bone mass, and increased risk of some fractures. Very few studies have compared the effects of the RYGB and the SG on changes skeletal health and findings have been inconsistent. Furthermore, few studies have investigated the ...

Given the current high incidence of osteoporosis, reducing the risk of osteoporosis development is essential. Recent estimates, based on the 2010 US Census, indicate that approximately 10.3 million people age 50 and older have osteoporosis. By 2030 the prevalence of osteoporosis for women 50 years and older is projected to ...

This is a prospective case series study aiming to radiographically assess the changes in alveolar bone width and height after the placement of a SLActive implant (implant with a modified surface that should stimulate bone formation) and 12 months after loading it in post-menopausal osteoporotic women. The null hypothesis is: ...

Primarily the influence of the therapeutic treatment on the microRNA concentration in the serum (treatment-response) and the relation between microRNA serum levels and changes of the bone mineral density will be investigated. These data will help to examine the use of microRNAs as novel diagnostic biomarkers for the diagnosis of ...

OBJECTIVES Primary Compare the progression-free survival and overall survival of patients with locally advanced or metastatic prostate cancer treated with transcutaneous estrogen patches vs luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogues. Secondary Compare the cardiovascular system-related morbidity and mortality in patients treated with these regimens Compare the activity of these treatments, in terms ...

The research is a 6 month, intervention study of unilateral (single limb) exercise with the changes in a randomly chosen exercise leg being compared to those in the other (control) leg. Potential participants (women aged 55-70) will be approached via existing links in the community, at local community centres, through ...

This study are divided in two parts : Cross sectional cohort with both comparison between : Cushing syndrome versus control and cushing syndrome versus post-menopausal women Outcomes : Primary outcomes : Analysis thanks to pQCT will be carried out in order to compare radius and tibia bone mineral volume (total, ...

For nearly 112 million patients with osteoporosis in China, it is of great significance for preventing and treating by clearly understanding the molecular mechanism of kidney deficiency. Thus, the research group has demonstrated in the earlier research that CLCF1 is an associated gene that can regulate JAK2/STAT3 signal pathway and ...

Study Design: A block randomised, cross-over design of 24h rates of bone turnover in healthy, post-menopausal women with osteopenia receiving either a milk-based protein supplement (MBPS) or isoenergetic placebo control (PLACEBO). Participants: 16 Post-menopausal women with osteopenia as determined by site-specific bone mineral density BMD (DXA) diagnosed and screened by ...
