NCT06525688

Brief Summary

This study aims to discover novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for osteoporosis through the use of advanced omics technologies, including proteomics and metabolomics. By analyzing bone and plasma samples from patients with osteoporosis, the research seeks to understand the underlying mechanisms of the disease and identify potential diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers.

Interventions

Intervention: Bone samples will be collected during surgery from the femoral neck (which is typically removed and discarded in these operations) and fasting morning blood samples.

Data Sharing

IPD Sharing
Will not share

We plan to make individual participant data (IPD) available to other researchers upon reasonable request. Data sharing will be governed by ethical guidelines and privacy regulations to ensure the confidentiality and security of participant information. Interested researchers will be required to submit a formal request, including a brief proposal outlining the intended use of the data. Approved requests will gain access to anonymized data sets, ensuring that participant identities are protected. The aim is to foster collaborative research and maximize the scientific impact of our findings.
