Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the ACCORD-BONE Study is to investigate the effects of intensive glycemic control for type 2 diabetes (in ACCORD participants) on factors related to bone health, including, fractures, falls, and bone mineral density.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Recent studies have established that type 2 diabetes is a risk factor for fractures, particularly of the hip, shoulder and foot. Additionally, type 2 diabetes is associated with a 50-60% increase in the risk of falling. The higher risk of fracture associated with type 2 diabetes is an important health burden for these patients. More frequent falls and perhaps reduced bone strength in those with diabetes are thought to be key contributing factors. The best approach to preventing fractures in type 2 diabetes is not yet understood. There is observational evidence to support our hypothesis that better glycemic control will preserve bone and reduce falls and fractures. The ACCORD-BONE study provides a unique opportunity to determine whether intensive glycemic control will prevent fractures, falls, and bone loss in older diabetic adults, which may lead to improved treatment and prevention in the future.
