Bone turnover markers in patients with leg ischemia before and after revascularization
Abstract
In patients with leg ischemia bone metabolism impairment has been observed. The aim of this study was to investigate the biochemical bone metabolism markers. Elevated level of osteolysis markers was observed before and 7 days after revascularization the level of markers was unchanged.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a case-control, done in people. Its evidence level is 4 of 5 (Low · observational). Observational designs can show an association but not prove cause.
