Detailed Description

Many factors influence the risk of osteoporosis but one of the most important is a positive family history, emphasizing the importance of genetics in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. Till now, most genetic studies in osteoporosis have focused on the phenotype of BMD. However, areal BMD (bone quantity per unit bone area measured) does not provide information regarding bone distribution (between cortical and cancellous compartments) or bone microarchitecture (trabecular number, thickness, spacing and distribution) and cortical (thickness, porosity). We are planning to analyze the hereditary determinism of bone microarchitecture assessed non invasively with HR pQCT at the distal radius and the distal tibia in a case-control study with fractured and not fractured mothers and their daughters. Additionally, the role of the bone turnover, hormones involved in regulating bone metabolism , bone geometry measured at the proximal femur and bone strength estimated by finite element analysis (μFE)in the hereditary determinism of bone fragility will be analyzed.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

20 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

  1. Fractured mothers and their daughters (case group)
  2. Non-fractured mothers and their daughters (control group)

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Case mothers: postmenopausal women who have at least one bone fragility fracture confirmed by radiological examination or by a surgical report. Fragility fracture is a fracture that occurs as a result of a fall from standing height or less. Fractures of the skull, fingers and toes will be excluded.
  • Control mothers: menopausal women not having suffered from bone fragility fracture.
  • Daughters: Women aged 20 and older (postmenopausal or not), biological daughters of participating mothers. Several daughters from the same mother may be included.

Mothers and some daughters are recruited from the OFELY (Os des FEmmes de LYon) cohort or the FMC (Filière MédicoChirurgicale).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Adoptive daughters
  • Nonmenopausal mothers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Role of bone microarchitecture in the hereditary determinism of bone fragility
Time Frame: 18 months
Comparison of bone microarchitecture parameters from high resolution peripheral quantitative computer tomography (HRpQCT)between daughters according to the fracture status of their mother.
18 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Role of Bone mineral density in the hereditary determinism of bone fragility
Time Frame: 18 months
Comparison of BMD from DXA at the hip, the lumbar spine, the forearm and whole body, between daughters according to the fracture status of their mother.
18 months
Role of bone turnover and hormones in the hereditary determinism of bone fragility
Time Frame: 24 months
