Circulating Myokine Levels and Bone Metabolism

January 11, 2021 updated by: Athanasios D. Anastasilakis, 424 General Military Hospital

The Role of Myokines in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis

Circulating levels of several myokines will be measured in serum samples obtained from women in various categories of bone density and according to the presence of fracture or not as well as before and after treatment with teriparatide and denosumab

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

Serum samples for the measurement of several myokines will be obtained from: 1) equal groups of premenopausal women with normal BMD, postmenopausal women with normal BMD, postmenopausal women with osteopenia, and postmenopausal women with osteoporosis; 2) women with hip fracture compared with controls (women subjected to surgery due to knee osteoathritis); 3) women with osteoporosis treated with teriparatide or denosumab for 12 months
