Mucolipidosis Type IV Natural History Study
The primary objectives of the study are: to describe the characteristics of the current international MLIV population; to define the median age at which patients with MLIV achieve or lose developmental milestones; to define the natural history of MLIV for the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) (Morris and Bartlett, …
Effects of Teriparatide (PTH) on Bone in Men and Women With Osteoporosis
Teriparatide (PTH) is the only bone formation therapy that has been approved for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis in Canada. Osteoporosis is currently diagnosed using a bone mineral density (BMD) scan, which measures the amount of mineral (calcium etc) in bones (the higher the amount of mineral, the lower the …
Calibr-Ì: Comparative Evaluation of Phantomless Calibration Methods to Quantify Bone Mineral Density for Opportunistic Analysis of CT Scans
Osteoporosis is a systemic disease characterized by a reduction in bone mineral density (BMD) and qualitative alteration of the skeleton, resulting in increased bone fragility and fracture risk. The epidemiological impact of osteoporosis is extremely high. Proper diagnosis and clinical management of osteoporosis are critical to reducing the incidence of …
Investigation of Q Angle in Osteoporosis Patients
Osteoporosis (OP) is a bone disease characterized by reduced bone density and deterioration of bone tissue, leading to an increased risk of fractures. There are no studies evaluating Q angle in patients with OP and Osteopenia (OPN) in the literature. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the …
Assessment of Mineral and Bone Disorders in Kidney Transplant Recipients
This study aims to integrate bone measurements (including bone turnover markers (BTM), bone mineral density (BMD) measurement, vertebral fracture assessment (VFA), trabecular bone score (TBS) ) commonly used in the general population for primary osteoporosis evaluation to enhance the assessment of CKD-MBD.
Clinical Validation of BBCT-hip
The clinical study is aimed at assessing the accuracy of the in silico methodology BBCT-hip. BBCT-hip takes as inputs the subject-specific height and weight, and the CT scan of his femur to predict the risk of fracture for the femur upon falling. In the study, 150 subjects who suffered from …
Self-questionnaire in Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a multifactorial disease in which genetic predispositions play a key role in its development. A better understanding of family history and clinical manifestations among first- and second-degree relatives can help improve early detection and personalized care for at-risk patients. To this end, we will test a self-administered questionnaire …
Primary Care Management of Osteoporosis in Older Women
The Investigators aim to improve primary-care for older women with osteoporosis. Older women they spoke with previously felt unseen, unimportant, unheard and uninformed. These women felt that bone/joint health was an important issue for women aged 70+. Osteoporosis is a disease that makes bones more breakable and can lead to …
Orthorexia Nervosa in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
A total of 64 female patients diagnosed with osteoporosis based on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements performed within the last six months, and 64 age-matched healthy controls without osteoporosis, will be included in our study. Sociodemographic data such as age, sex, height, weight, and BMI will be recorded. Additionally, information …
Metabolic Profile of Bone in Professional Athletes
Physical activity is a key stimulus for bone metabolism through both direct mechanisms (e.g., as a result of the applied load and/or impact) and indirect mechanisms (e.g., the activation of several metabolic pathways and the production of several mediators and effectors that have systemic effects). However, different kinds of physical …
