About this study

Official title: Serum Concentration of Bone Intake Proteins and Muscle Decay Markers as Risk Factors of Proximal Femur Fractures

The aim of this clinical trial is to compare serum concentration of bone intake proteins [ sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), cross linked C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-I)] and muscle atrophy marker [creatine kinase (CK-MB)] between patients after the fracture of proximal femur and their age corresponding counterpart without the fracture. The main question it aims to answer is:

  • Is the higher concentration of bone intake proteins and muscle atrophy marker a predictive factor of proximal femur fracture?

The part of participants (Group 1) will be hospitalized at the Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation and will undergo a surgical treatment (open reduction of the fracture). The rest (Group 2) will be admitted to the Department of Internal Medicine. Participants of both Groups will have the blood sample test taken, to evaluate and compare the serum concentration of SHBG, CTX-I and CK-MB proteins.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Serum concentration of SHBG and comparison between intervention groups

    Measured: (Group 1) At the day of the admission to the Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation prior the surgical treatment or (Group 2) at the day of the admission to the Department of Internal Medicine

  2. Serum concentration of CTX-I and comparison between intervention groups

    Measured: (Group 1) At the day of the admission to the Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation prior the surgical treatment or (Group 2) at the day of the admission to the Department of Internal Medicine

  3. Serum concentration of CK-MB and comparison between intervention groups

    Measured: (Group 1) At the day of the admission to the Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation prior the surgical treatment or (Group 2) at the day of the admission to the Department of Internal Medicine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Femoral Neck Fractures and Pertrochanteric Fracture, run by Medical University of Warsaw at 1 site in Poland.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Serum concentration of SHBG and comparison between intervention groups (time frame: (Group 1) At the day of the admission to the Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation prior the surgical treatment or (Group 2) at the day of the admission to the Department of Internal Medicine). The study lists 3 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 1 Aug 2023.
