NCT01200277
The standard care in patients with a painful osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (VCF) is conservative therapy. Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PV), is a new minimally invasive technique for pain treatment in which bone cement is injected in the fractured vertebra. Recent RCTs provide conflicting results: two sham-controlled studies show no benefit of PV while an unmasked but controlled RCT found significantly better pain relief after PV at acceptable costs.
NCT00282126
Osteoporosis, a disease in which the bones become weak and are more likely to break, is a major health problem in the United States. Too much acid in the body appears to be linked to loss of calcium via urine, bone loss, and muscle breakdown. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of various doses of potassium citrate, a supplement that can neutralize acid, on bone density and muscle mass in older, healthy adults.
