Researchers dig into old scans to solve a Bone-Weakening puzzle
NCT ID NCT04742387
Summary
This study aims to understand why people with HIV and certain cancers (caused by KSHV virus) often lose bone density, which increases fracture risk. Researchers will analyze existing medical records and CT scans from about 40 patients treated at the NIH between 2005 and 2020. The goal is to identify factors linked to bone loss to inform future care, but this study itself does not test any new treatments.
