Bone Intake Proteins and Muscle Mass Deficiency in Proximal Femur Fractures

Completed
Conditions
Bone Loss
Bone Resorption
Muscle Loss
Muscle Damage
Femoral Neck Fractures
Pertrochanteric Fracture
Registration Number
NCT05804604
Lead Sponsor
Medical University of Warsaw
Brief 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.
