No peer-reviewed publication reporting this trial's results has been linked yet. This can indicate results are unpublished — a known publication-bias signal. We re-check periodically.
Summary
The purpose of this study is to apply a novel advanced magnetic resonance imaging methodology to evaluate the response to drug intervention involving two treatment arms of postmenopausal participants with osteoporosis, randomized into either a teriparatide (Forteo™) or zoledronic acid (Reclast™) group.
