Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in bone mineral density and body compositionBaseline and 6 months

Bone mineral density and body composition by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)

Change in fasting and postprandial glucoseBaseline and 6 months
Change in Pulmonary function testsBaseline and 6 months

Pulmonary function tests consiste of spirometry, body plethysmograph, diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLco), and respiratory muscle strength. Measurements are conducted using the Collins Plus Pulmonary Function Testing Systems (Warren E. Collins, Inc., Braintree, MA, USA).

Change in bone microarchitectureBaseline and 6 months

Bone microarchitecture by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography

Change in lipid profileBaseline and 6 months

Total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol
