About this study

Official title: Development of a Risk Prediction Model for Osteopenia in Patients With Psoriasis: A Cross-Sectional Study

This study aims to develop a clinical prediction model for osteopenia in patients with psoriasis. By retrospectively analyzing demographic, laboratory, and lifestyle variables, the investigators will identify risk factors associated with decreased bone mineral density (BMD) in this population. The study will facilitate the identification of high-risk individuals and provide evidence for early screening and intervention strategies.

Read the detailed description

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with various systemic comorbidities, including an increased risk of bone loss. Recent studies suggest that patients with psoriasis have a significantly higher incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis than the general population, potentially due to systemic inflammation and shared risk factors. All enrolled patients will undergo dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans to assess bone mineral density (BMD). Based on the results, patients will be categorized into normal BMD and osteopenia groups. Demographic data (age, sex, height, weight, BMI), clinical variables (disease duration, CRP, ESR, blood glucose, blood lipids, blood pressure), and lifestyle factors (smoking, alcohol use) will be collected and analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses will be performed to identify independent risk factors. A prediction model will be constructed and evaluated using ROC curve analysis to assess sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. The objective of this study is to develop a validated tool to assist clinicians in identifying patients with psoriasis at high risk for osteopenia, thereby enabling early screening and preventive management to reduce future fracture risk.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of Osteopenia in Patients With Psoriasis

    Bone mineral density (BMD) will be assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) at the lumbar spine and/or femoral neck. Osteopenia is defined as a T-score between -1.0 and -2.5 according to WHO criteria. Patients will be categorized accordingly.

    Measured: At the time of DEXA assessment during enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Psoriasis, run by Chongli Yu 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 3 inclusion and 5 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 13 Aug 2025. 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?

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?

Occurrence of Osteopenia in Patients With Psoriasis (time frame: At the time of DEXA assessment during enrollment). 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 NCT07112755, which also lists 6 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 13 Aug 2025.
