U.S., March 19 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07480057) titled 'Assessment of Changes in Bone Mineral Metabolism After Liver Transplantation by Bone Mineral Densitometry' on March 13.
Brief Summary: Liver transplantation (LT) remains the ultimate option to cure intractable end stage liver disease. Nutritional deficiencies are very common among CLD patients and due to this these patients suffer from low bone mineral density leading to osteoporosis and osteopenia. It has been observed that there is substantial reduction in bone density , especially within the first year of LT. The incidence of fractures among LT recipients has been reported to be around 3.5% with vertebral spine being the most co...
