Vibration Applications After Total Knee Arthroplasty in Osteopenic Women
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative disease characterized by the destruction of articular cartilage, leading to functional impairment of surrounding bone and soft tissues. It is a major global public health problem, with the knee joint being the most commonly affected site. Treatment modalities include exercise, diet, oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory …
The Effect of Oral Semaglutide on Bone Turnover in Patients With T2D: a Randomized Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial
The hypothesis for this study is that oral Semaglutide, a GLP-1Ra, has a positive effect on the balance between build-up and degradation as well as the strength of the bones in men and women aged 50-85 years with type 2 diabetes and an increased risk of bone fractures. Treatment involves …
Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in Axial Spondyloarthritis
Although biologic therapy have revolutionized the treatment of Spondyloarthrtitis (SpA), many patients do not experience complete relief of SpA related complaints. It has been established that patients with SpA have an altered composition of microorganisms (microbiota) in the gut compared to healthy controls, and that this correlates to disease activity …
Routine Validation and Reproducibility Testing of Laboratory Assays and Research Techniques Used for Endocrine, Cardiometabolic, and Musculoskeletal Disorder Research (VALD)
The purpose of this research study is to validate (check the accuracy of) laboratory assays, intravenous catheter insertion, and equipment or devices and their reproducibility, which is necessary to perform high quality research on chronic diseases, nutrition, and metabolism (the process by which a substance is handled in the body) …
Data Collection of Patients With Rare Bone Diseases
RD-DATA is a retrospective and prospective data collection, finalized to care and research. It is articulated in main sections - strongly related and mutually dependent on each other - corresponding to different data domains: personal information, clinical data, genetic data, genealogical data, surgeries, etc.. This approach has been individuated in …
Thumb Ossification Composite Index (TOCI) to Predict Skeletal Maturity and Curve Progression in AIS
Accurate skeletal maturity assessment is important for prediction of curve progression and clinical management of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) including bracing decision and counseling for prognosis. Determination of the timing of peak growth height velocity and growth remaining are paramount important.1,2 Commonly used clinical or radiological methods are still inadequate …
Clinical Validation of BoneMRI in the Spine
BoneMRI is a quantitative 3D MRI technique that has been developed recently by MRIGuidance BV©, which is based on a multiple gradient-echo sequence and a machine learning processing pipeline. The BoneMRI technology is capable of generating CT-like, quantitative radiodensity bone MRI images to visualize cortical and trabecular bone, allowing to …
OSTEOMICS: Identifying Regulators of Bone Homeostasis
Diseases of bone associated with ageing, including osteoporosis (OP) and osteoarthritis (OA), reduce bone mass, bone strength and joint integrity. Current non-surgical approaches are limited to pharmaceutical agents that are not disease modifying and have poor patient tolerability due to side effect profiles. Developing a fundamental understanding of cellular bone …
BASUN - Risks for Malnutrition, Metabolic Bone Disease and Impaired Oral Health After Obesity Treatment
Weight-reducing obesity surgery (OS) generally gives good results but complications are common; e.g. impaired weight loss, weight regain, bowel pain, diarrhea, vitamin/mineral deficiency, osteoporosis and impaired dental health. The BASUN study is a prospective 10-year comparison of 1000 surgically and 400 conventionally treated individuals regarding adverse side-effects, risk factors for …
An Electronic Health Record (EHR)-Based Comprehensive Bone and Soft Tissue Tumor Registry
Translational studies in cancer research can be impeded by the lack of high-quality clinical data that can be correlated with research questions. This is particularly true in the case of rare diseases, such as bone and soft tissue tumors. It is therefore the purpose of this study to create a …
