An observational study in Osteoporosis, sponsored by Northwestern University. Completed at 1 site in United States. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2016-12-19.
Sponsored by Northwestern University · Observational
The aim of this research registry is to collect information on individuals with osteoporosis, those with risk factors for osteoporosis, and comparative healthy controls. Bone mineral density measurements will be done on these individuals to determine bone health.
The goal of this project is to develop a registry of research subjects with OP, with a risk of developing OP, and healthy controls. DXA scans will be performed on willing individuals at the spine, hips, and forearms and possibly the legs and heels in order to determine BMD. Subjects will also be asked to provide two (10 ml) blood samples, which may be used to analyze Vitamin D levels and/or other bone markers. By participating in the registry, subjects will be considered for current and future clinical research studies.
1,640 studies on the registry are indexed under Osteoporosis; 212 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 12 is below the median of 174 across 446 observational studies indexed under Osteoporosis.
