About this study

Meniere's disease is a progressive and debilitating inner ear disease characterised by vertigo and hearing loss. Several studies have linked Menierws disease with lower bone density and lower vitamin D levels. In the current prospective study definite Meniere's patients will be followed over a period of 2 year, during which repetitive measurements of bone density, vitamin D plasma levels, blood pressure as well as hearing and vestibular tests will be made. Results will be compared to healthy controls.

Being tested
vitamin D plasma levels baseline, Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline, cervical Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials at baseline, Audiogram at baseline, Measuring Orthostatic Blood Pressure at baseline
Medical subject headings
Meniere Disease, Osteoporosis, Bone Diseases, Metabolic, Vitamin D Deficiency, Vestibular Diseases

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • vitamin D plasma levels baselineDiagnostic test

    Measuring vitamin D plasma levels at baseline

  • Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at baselineDiagnostic test

    Also called DEXA

    Measuring T-score and Z-score of the femur and lumbar spine at baseline

  • cervical Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials at baselineDiagnostic test

    Also called cVEMP

    cVEMP is a vestibular test for saccular function, an otolith organ in the inner ear. the electrical response of the stermocledomastoid muscle to saccular stimulation is measured via two distinct waves - P13 and N23. the latency, amplitude and peak to peak amplitude will be measured.

  • Audiogram at baselineDiagnostic test

    Also called Hearing test

    hearing measurement will be performed. Hearing level in dB will be performed in the 250-8,000 Hz frequency. The test includes Speech reception threshold and word recognition score.

  • Measuring Orthostatic Blood Pressure at baselineDiagnostic test

    Also called Orthostatic Hypotension

    blood pressure will be measure two minutes after lying supine and repeated 3 minutes after standing. A drop of at least 20mmHg systolic pressure or at least 10mmHg diastolic blood pressure is considered a positive test

  • cold pressor test at baselineDiagnostic test

    The cold pressor test is an indicator for sympathetic system function. A rise of at least 15mmHg of systolic pressure after putting the subject's hand in cold water (4 deg Celsius) is indicative of normal sympathetic function.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing vitamin D plasma levels baseline, Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline and cervical Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials at baseline in people with Meniere Disease and Osteoporosis, run by HaEmek Medical Center, Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yoni Evgeni Gutkovich, M.D\Ph.D (+972-526894497, gutkovichj@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Vitamin D plasma levels (time frame: baseline). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Aug 2022.
