Bone Intake Proteins and Muscle Mass Deficiency in Proximal Femur Fractures

NCT ID: NCT05804604 Phase: Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 40 Completion: 2022-11-29

Conditions

Femoral Neck Fractures, Pertrochanteric Fracture, Bone Resorption, Bone Loss, Muscle Loss, Muscle Damage

Interventions

Surgical treatment of proximal femur fracture and blood sample test, Blood sample test

Summary

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.

Primary Outcome

Serum concentration of SHBG and comparison between intervention groups
