Comparison of a Weight Bearing and a Non-weight Bearing Protocol on Osteoporotic Women With Chronic...

OsteoporosisLow Back Pain

The effect of exercising in different body positions on bone growth in osteoporotic women is known, but its effect on their function, low back pain, lumbar range of motion and quality of life remains unknown. Therefore, the investigators plan to make a comparison of the effect of a weight bearing protocol and a non-weight bearing protocol on osteoporotic women with chronic low back pain. 40 women with osteoporosis and low back pain will be divided into two groups. Each group will be given a specific exercise protocol, twice a week for four weeks, 45 minutes each time. The participants will be tested before starting the program, immediately after finishing it and again two months later. The tests will include filling out the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire, the SF-36 quality of life Questionnaire, pain measurement by VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) and lumbar range of motion measurement by a digital Inclinometer. Statistical analysis will be made in order to compare the dependent variables between groups.

Alendronate Versus Denosumab in Kidney Transplant Patients

OsteoporosisOsteopenia1 more

The management of bone disease has often been neglected post-transplantation, when the clinical focus is on allograft function and immunological sequelae. However, most renal transplant recipients (RTRs) have pre-existing CKD-MBD, which results in changes to mineral metabolism and reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and quality, which are linked to an increased incidence of fractures and cardiovascular disease. Bone loss is greatest in the first 6-12 months post-transplantation, during which period any intervention is likely to be of greatest benefit. Anti-resorptive agents all inhibit bone resorption. Since bisphosphonates and densoumab are the most widely used anti-resorptive agents for osteoporosis, we conduct this prospective interventional comparative study to compare the efficacy and tolerability of alendronate versus denosumab in de novo kidney transplant recipients with reduced bone mineral density, in the first 12 months treatment after kidney transplantation.

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Versus Pulsed High Intensity Laser in the of Osteoprosis

Osteopenia or Osteoporosis

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 comparison with pulsed high laser therapy.

A Six-month Phase 2 Study of Oral hPTH(1-34) (EBP05) in Postmenopausal Women With Low Bone Mass...

Osteoporosis

This is a double-blinded randomized study to determine the effects of treatment on biochemical markers of bone formation and bone resorption, and bone mineral density (BMD) for 6 months of treatment with EBP05 or placebo. Approximately 160 postmenopausal women with low bone mass (BMD T-score lower than or equal to -2.0 in at least one location: Lumbar Spine, Femoral Neck or Total Hip sites) over 50 years of age will receive Study Medication. Protocol Version 3.0 describes the treatment and evaluation of the initial 103 subjects randomized. In Protocol Version 4.0 the treatment phase will consist of 4 different treatment arms as follows: Oral EBP05 0.5mg x3 tablets (1.5mg), N=6 Oral EBP05 0.5mg x5 tablets (2.5mg), N=36 Oral Placebo for EBP05 0.5mg (split to sub-groups of: 3 or 5 tablets), N=18

Diagnostic Performances of Mandibular CBCT in Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis

In the last decade, there has been a shift towards Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT - regarding its low-dose radiation profile) in Dentistry/Implantology fields because it presents a more conclusive insight in the bone micro-architecture and cortical/trabecular bone structures assessment due to 3D acquisition higher resolution. Despite convergent and interesting preliminary results, most CBCT studies failed in highlighting a potential new osteoporosis diagnostic tool. TOMOSTEOp study aims to explore inter-relation between CBCT parameters and DXA Gold-Standard parameters in order to build resolutive explicative model of bone mineral density and test CBCT diagnostic performances.

Awareness of Osteoporosis in Multiple Sclerosis Patients

Multiple SclerosisOsteoporosis1 more

Osteoporosis is a condition that describes compromised skeletal microarchitecture in general, with clinical signs of decreased bone mineral density. Multiple sclerosis patients are at increased risk for developing osteoporosis. Identifying whether multiple sclerosis patients have information and awareness about this disease is crucial. This study is aimed to investigate awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in multiple sclerosis patients.

Osteoporosis is a condition that describes compromised skeletal microarchitecture in general, with clinical signs of decreased bone mineral density. Patients with hepatitis c virus infection are at increased risk for developing osteoporosis. Identifying whether patients with hepatitis c virus infection have information and awareness about this disease is crucial. This study is aimed to investigate awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in patients with hepatitis c virus infection.
