What is being measured

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

  1. calcium (mg/dL)

    change of some physiological parameters concentration related to calcium metabolism measured by blood laboratory tests

    Measured: 0-3-6 month

  2. 25-OH vitamin D (ng/mL)

    change of physiological parameter concentration related to calcium metabolism

    Measured: 0-3-6 month

  3. osteocalcin (ng/mL)

    change of physiological parameter concentration related to calcium metabolism

    Measured: 0-3-6 month

  4. Parathyroid hormone (pg/mL)

    change of physiological parameter concentration related to calcium metabolism

    Measured: 0-3-6 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. NMR metabolomic profile and applications of Metabolomics in calcium metabolism

    Metabolomic profile of serum related to calcium metabolism by NMR proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR) Metabolomics aims at the quantitative analysis of all metabolites in a biological system, as well as their composition, interactions, and responses to interventions or a specific physiological state. The metabolomics approach correlates broad biochemical changes with health and disease states, and advanced statistical metabolic modeling allows the identification of biomarkers, enabling the quantification of low-molecular-weight metabolites

    Measured: 0-3-6 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing bicarbonate-calcium water in people with Osteoporosis Risk, run by University of Salerno at 1 site in Italy.

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 10 inclusion and 0 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 11 May 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 Italy. 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?

calcium (mg/dL) (time frame: 0-3-6 month). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05854342, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 11 May 2023.
