AI summary: who the study is looking for
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for older adults with osteoporosis who have had a hip fracture (femoral neck or trochanter). It studies the risk of a second hip fracture using CT scans.
- Age
- 50 Years to 95 Years
- Sex
- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- Osteoporosis with a hip fracture of the femoral neck or the femoral trochanter.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Under 47years old
- Non-surgical repair of hip fracture
- Pathologic fracture
- Violence-related trauma
- Bilateral hip implants or hip replacement on the non-fractured side

1. To Compare overall rates of second hip fractures in both genders, 2. To determine the effect of hip fracture on proximal femoral volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), bone structure and muscle by quantitative computed tomography(QCT), 3. To evaluate the contribution of QCT-image analysis to the prediction of the second hip fracture risk. 4. To identify the differences between femoral neck fracture and trochanter fracture following hip fractureRead full original descriptionShow less
