Study of A Special Vessel Subtype in Bone Samples From Patients With Osteoporotic and Nonosteoporotic Fracture

Not Applicable
Conditions
Femoral Neck Fractures
Interventions
Procedure: total hip arthroplasty or proximal femoral nails
Registration Number
NCT02750046
Lead Sponsor
Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Collecting and storing bone samples from patients with osteoporotic and nonosteoporotic fracture to study a special vessel subtype in the laboratory may help surgeon learn more about the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and a special vessel subtype (type H vessel).

PURPOSE: This research study is looking at changes of a special vessel subtype in bone samples from patients with osteoporotic and nonosteoporotic fracture.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

1. Establish type H vessel in bone specimen in patients with hip fracture.

2. Explore the correlation of BMD and type H vessel.

OUTLINE:

1. Collect human bone specimens from patients with Osteoporotic and Nonosteoporotic Fracture.

2. Provide a repository for storage of tissue and make these specimens available for approved projects by laboratory-based investigators.

3. Observe the type H vessel in bone slice by immunofluorescence staining.

4. Collect clinical data on these patients including bone mineral density.

5. Investigate the relationship between BMD and type H vessel.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The area of a special vessel subtype in human bone samples3 months

Bone samples were fixed in 4% PFA, decalcified, dehydrated, embedded and immunofluorescent staining for 3 months. Calculate the proportion of the special vessel of total vessel.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The value of bone mineral density1 week

Bone mineral density was measured by double energy X-ray absorptiometer (DXA) in a week before surgery.

Correlation of of bone mineral density and area of a special vessel subtype in human bone2 months

Calculate correlation coefficient of BMD and type H vessel in human bone samples in 2 months.
