Effect of 2 mg versus 4 mg of intravenous zoledronic acid on bone mineral density at the lumbar Spine in Indian postmenopausal women with osteoporosis: A Double-blind parallel-arm randomized controlled trial
Abstract:Objective:
The primary purpose was to compare the effect of 2 mg and 4 mg of intravenous zoledronic acid (ZA) on change in the lumbar spine (LS) bone mineral density (BMD) at the end of 1 year in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. The secondary objectives were changes in BMD at the total hip and femoral neck, change in bone turnover markers (BTMs), and the incidence of new fractures.
Methods:
This was a double-blind, parallel-arm, randomized control trial with an a… Show more
