U.S., Feb. 25 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06842758) titled 'Relationship Between Thoracic Hyperkyphosis and Fall Risk in Women with Fragility Vertebral Fractures' on Feb. 18.
Brief Summary: Multiple vertebral fragility fractures, one of the main complications of osteoporosis, are frequently associated with thoracic hyperkyphosis, which in turn leads to significant postural alterations.
These biomechanical changes may increase fall risk, posing a critical clinical issue for elderly patients. However, the results of studies investigating the association between hyperkyphosis and fall risk are conflicting, highlighting the need for further research.
This study aims to explore the correlation ...
