AVP Study: Autophagy and Pathological Aging Human Study in Osteoporosis With or Without Dementia of Alzheimer's Type
Abstract
Autophagy is recognized as a central mechanism for the regulation of aging. . Osteoporosis (OA) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are two forms of pathological aging, sometimes entangled, including an over-risk of OP in AD and degradation of cognitive functions after OP fracture, but the link between These two pathologies remain poorly understood.
The aim of this prospective pilot study is to evaluate the level of autophagy of osteocytes (OST) in postmenopausal women with OP and to explore the hypothesis that the defect of autophagy is one of the physiopathological links of the OP During the MA
Conditions: Osteoporosis.
Primary outcome: Quantification of autophagy.
Enrollment: 82 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 82 participants or records.
