Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is induced in patients with connective tissue diseases who are treated with glucocorticoid, whose population is thought to be about 2 million in Japan. However, early diagnosis and early intervention remain unclear. In this study we clarify the following issues; 1) early diagnosis of change of bone metabolism by bone marker proteins just after the initiation of glucocorticoid therapy, 2) correlation of the early diagnosis of the bone metabolism and bone mineral density and fracture by the longitudinal observation, 3) clinical efficacy of early intervention by alendronate in patients who are treated with glucocorticoid.
Efficacy
Confirmatory
Pragmatic
Not applicable
1) Changes of bone metabolism markers at one week after the initiation of glucocorticoid therapy
2) Changes of bone metabolism at six months after the early intervention by alendronate in patients initially treated with glucocorticoid
1) Change of bone metabolism markers at 6 months after the initiation of glucocorticoid therapy
2) Correlation of the changes of bone markers at one week after the treatment with the changes of bone metabolism at six months after the treatement
