Muscle health in metabolic and hormone diseases
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial looks at how muscle health is affected by metabolic or hormone disorders, aiming to find better markers for muscle loss called sarcopenia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a metabolic or endocrine disease (like diabetes, thyroid issues, or hormone imbalances).
- You do not have a known muscle disease.
- You have not used high-dose steroids (oral or injection) recently.
- You do not have a history of cancer in the last 5 years (except certain skin cancers).
- You are able and willing to follow study procedures and visits.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at muscle changes in people with or at risk for sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). It aims to find better ways to detect and manage sarcopenia using simple tests like muscle strength and body composition measurements.
This study looks at how GLP-1 receptor agonist drugs (used for weight loss) affect muscle mass and strength in people with obesity who do not have diabetes. It may help understand if these medications impact muscle health.
This trial tests a new approach to treat sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss) by targeting a protein called HIF-1α. It compares older adults with sarcopenia to younger adults without it, all of whom are having hip or knee surgery.
This study looks at the link between muscle loss (sarcopenia) and obesity in older adults. It aims to understand why some older people who are overweight or obese also lose muscle strength and function, and how this affects recovery after hip surgery.
This study looks at how common muscle loss (sarcopenia) is in older people with long-standing type 2 diabetes. It aims to find out if there is a link so that doctors can spot muscle problems earlier and help patients stay stronger.
This study looks at how muscle loss (sarcopenia) and metabolic problems (like diabetes or obesity) relate to aging over time. It aims to find better ways to track and treat these age-related changes.
