About this study

Official title: Comparison of Detection Rates of Osteoporosis Between Dual Energy X-ray and Quantitative CT

72 adult patients who underwent lumbar spine anteroposterior DXA and QCT examinations at Qianfoshan Hospital in Shandong Province from January 2019 to December 2022 were selected, with an interval of no more than 3 months between the two examinations for the same patient.

  1. Record the patient's age, gender, height, and weight; Review the patient's past medical history (especially whether there is a history of brittle fractures, whether there is a history of using drugs that affect bone metabolism, etc.).
  2. Retrieve the bone density values of the anterior lumbar vertebrae 1 to 4 measured by GE Healthcare Lunar Prodigy dual energy X-ray absorptiometry from the database, and take the average (DXA bone density value). According to the diagnostic criteria of the Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines for Primary Osteoporosis (2022), determine whether the patient has normal bone mass, decreased bone mass, or osteoporosis.
  3. Identify the lumbar spine bone density values (QCT bone density values) measured by the GE Gemstone CTHD750 CT instrument from the database. According to the diagnostic criteria of the Chinese Quantitative CT (QCT) Diagnosis Guidelines for Osteoporosis (2018), determine whether the patient has normal bone mass, decreased bone mass, or osteoporosis.
  4. Statistical analysis was conducted on the normal bone density, bone loss, and number of osteoporosis diagnosed by DXA and QCT respectively, in order to explore the differences in the detection rates of osteoporosis between these two monitoring methods. The data was analyzed and processed using SPSS 21.0 statistical software, and the count data was expressed as a rate (%) χ 2-test, P<0.05 indicates statistically significant difference; Explore whether the difference in detection rates between the two is related to factors such as weight; Calculate the detection rates of osteoporosis using two detection methods in patients who have experienced brittle fractures, and preliminarily determine which detection method is more accurate in determining osteoporosis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoporosis and Diagnosis, run by Xiaoqian Zhang at 1 site in China.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Mar 2024. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xiaoqian Zhang, doctorate (18553108635, zhxqqy@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison of the difference in detection rates of osteoporosis between dual energy X-ray and quantitative CT (time frame: January 2019 to December 2022). 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 8 Mar 2024.
