简要总结
Randomized, placebo-controlled trial of oral calcium supplementation for osteopenia in girls and women with Rett syndrome
详细描述
Objective
The investigators conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to determine the safety and efficacy of oral calcium supplementation for the treatment of bone mineral deficits in individuals with Rett syndrome (RTT).
Methods: The investigators measured total body bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry and biomarkers of bone turnover by clinical laboratory techniques before and one year after oral calcium or placebo supplementation in 32 pre- and post-pubertal girls and young women with RTT. The calcium supplement was calculated to provide a twofold increase in the recommended dietary allowance of calcium for age.
