Balance and Muscle Strength as Indicators of Fracture Risk in Postmenopausal Women
Are Balance and Lower Extremity Muscle Strength Indicators of Fracture Risk Independently of Bone Mineral Density in Postmenopausal Women?: a Cross-sectional Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Nov 2024
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The study is designed as a cross-sectional clinical study. A total of 156 postmenopausal women who visited the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation outpatient clinic at Beylikdüzü State Hospital and have had Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) measurements taken within the last 6 months will be included. The sociodemographic data of the patients will be recorded. Femoral neck and lumbar L1-L4 T-scores and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) values obtained from DXA measurements will be collected. To calculate fracture risk, the percentages for major and hip fracture risks will be calculated using the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX®). The one-leg stance test, used to assess static posture and balance, and the 30-second sit-to-stand test, used to evaluate endurance and lower extremity strength, will be applied to the patients.
