This pilot, genotype-stratified clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7, MK-7) supplementation in patients with low bone mineral density (osteopenia or osteoporosis) who carry a specific "unfavorable" variant in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene (e.g., BsmI or ApaI polymorphisms). The trial will …
Bone tissue is crucial for overall health and quality of life, but it undergoes constant internal remodeling, leading to osteoporosis, a widespread bone disease. Regular physical activity can improve bone mineral density (BMD) and prevent osteoporosis. Studies have shown that premenopausal women with regular physical activity have greater BMD. Diagnosing …
This study will compare two techniques to achieve increase in ridge dimensions as a preparation for dental implants using a resorbable barrier membrane and bone particulate allogenic graft hydrated with saline or a growth factor called Recombinant Human Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (rhPDGF).
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the impact of lutein, zeaxanthin, and fish oil (LZF) supplementation in healthy adults. The main question it aims to answer is: Will supplementation with LZF improve macular pigment optical density (MPOD), cognitive performance and bone mass compared to controls after six …
The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the adult population is estimated to 10%. CKD increases risk of bone fractures, cardiovascular disease and death. The main role of parathyroid hormone (PTH) is to regulate mineral metabolism, including the calcium and phosphate homeostasis. PTH increases as the kidney function declines, …
This clinical study aims to monitor and evaluate bone mineral density and fracture risk in women with singleton and twin pregnancies through the combined use of: two specific questionnaires developed by the Fragility Fracture Observatory (OFF), and a bone densitometric examination using REMS technology, performed between the 35th and 41st …
Alveolar bone resorption after dental extraction frequently leads to situations in which long-term function and esthetic success of rehabilitations with dental implants is a challenge. "Pontic-shield" has been described as an alternative technique to maintain alveolar ridge after tooth extraction. The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness …
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of AdvanCore implantable bone graft through a 12-month follow-up period in a prospective, parallel-group design, non-controlled, open label, multi-center and real-world setting study. This study is intended to satisfy post-market clinical follow-up requirements of CE Mark in Europe.
The aim of the present clinical trial is to examine the effects of everolimus, resistance training, or their combination on bone and muscle health formation in elderly women aged 60-75 years. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can rapamycin's analog (Everolimus), resistance training, or their combination, enhance bone …
Bone reconstruction in critical sized defect (CSD) remains a real challenge in orthopedic surgery in children and adults. The Masquelet technique is an innovative therapeutic technique, which offers a bone reconstruction in two steps, by the formation of an induced membrane (IM) around a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) spacer placed into the …
