This study tests whether drugs that remove aged 'senescent' cells from the body can improve bone health in older adults with weak bones (osteopenia or osteoporosis). About 120 men and women aged 60-90 with increased fracture risk will receive senolytics or a placebo. The main goa…

This study looks at whether oral semaglutide, a daily pill for type 2 diabetes, can improve bone health in people aged 50-85 who also have weak bones (osteopenia). Over 52 weeks, researchers will measure bone turnover markers, bone density, and strength. The goal is to see if thi…

This study tests whether robot-assisted physical training can prevent older adults (65+) from losing their ability to do daily tasks while in the hospital. About 488 participants will be randomly assigned to robot training or usual care. The goal is to see if the robot helps them…

This study tests whether adding short educational videos to standard care helps pregnant women with diabetes manage their blood sugar and improve their baby's birthweight. About 500 women participated, receiving either usual face-to-face education or extra virtual lessons on diet…

This study tests whether a weekly low dose of the drug everolimus, regular exercise (football fitness sessions), or both can prevent the rapid bone loss that often happens after menopause. The trial includes 136 healthy women aged 45-60 and lasts 24 weeks. The main goal is to see…

This study tests whether a digital version of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) can improve both sleep and pain in 140 adults with chronic pain and insomnia. Participants will either receive the digital CBT-I program or digital sleep hygiene education. The goal is…

This study aims to find a biological marker that can identify people at risk of bone loss caused by glucocorticoid (steroid) treatment. Researchers will give 36 healthy volunteers either a steroid or a placebo and take blood, bone marrow, bone, and fat samples to measure changes.…

This study follows 225 pregnant women—some who had gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, and some without any weight-loss surgery—to see how blood sugar highs and lows affect fetal growth. Researchers use continuous glucose monitors and track baby size at birth. The goal is to le…
