A pilot, randomized, controlled, open-label, single-center, two-parallel-arm clinical trial testing the addition of oral magnesium supplementation to prescribed drug therapy in the care setting. Category 1.
The primary objective of this randomized trial is to demonstrate the superiority of the combination of bisphosphonates and magnesium over bisphosphonates alone in postmenopausal osteoporosis, in terms of slowing bone remodeling, as assessed by the measurement of C-terminal telopeptides of type 1 bone collagen (CTX).
The secondary objectives are to study the impact of magnesium supplementation at 1 year on:
As part of their usual care and management, patients will be diagnosed with osteoporosis and prescribed bisphosphonates.
Patients will have 3 or 4 visits depending on which group they are randomized to: a first screening visit as part of routine care, which will take place in the Rheumatology Department of the Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital, then 2 visits for patients in the "bisphosphonates alone" group and 3 visits for patients in the "bisphosphonates associated with magnesium" group, which will take place in the Inserm 1405 Clinical Investigation Platform/Clinical Investigation Center (PIC/CIC) of the Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital.
Visit 0 - Screening visit and diagnosis of osteoporosis (1 month before day 0): Rheumatology Department
During this visit, the investigator physician will perform various examinations and tests usually performed as part of the patient's usual care and management in order to establish a diagnosis of osteoporosis.
These examinations are as follow:
Some patients who require profile radiographs of the spine will have this examination added for the consultation, especially for the evaluation of vertebral fractures if the context justifies it. Other patients will also have these x-rays to calculate the abdominal aortic calcification score (Kauppila score).
Body composition will be requested during the bone densitometry evaluation on the DXA machine.
Once the diagnosis of osteoporosis is confirmed, the physician will propose to eligible patients to participate in this research protocol by explaining the objectives and the course of the study, and give them an information note.
If the patients are interested, the investigator physician will prescribe osteoporotic treatment to be started after the Visit 1: Day 0 inclusion visit.
Visit 1 - Inclusion visit (Day 0): PIC/CIC (2 hours)
During this visit, the physician will explain again the objectives and progress of the study with the different tests and questionnaires planned so that the patients can give their informed consent to participate.
During this visit, the following will be performed:
For the "bisphosphonates alone" group, this diary will be completed for the first month of taking bisphosphonates (Month 1) as well as for the last month before the end of study visit at one year (Month 12).
For the "bisphosphonates combined with magnesium" group, a diary will also be given to them for the first month of taking bisphosphonates and a second will be given to them at visit 2 which will cover the period of taking magnesium over the last 3 months preceding the end-of-study visit (Months 10 to 12).
Visit 2 only for patients in the bisphosphonate-magnesium arm (Day 0+9 months): PIC/CIC (15 minutes)
At this visit, 9 months after the start of the trial, a blood test will be performed to measure magnesium levels, and then patients will be given magnesium treatment to take daily for 3 months before their 1-year visit (during months 10, 11 and 12). Finally, they will be given a follow-up diary to evaluate the average pain per Numerical Pain Scale, the daily consumption of analgesics, and the occurrence of possible adverse effects.
→ In addition, for the patients in this group, a phone call will be made by the project team 6 weeks after the start of the magnesium treatment to ensure good tolerance and compliance with the magnesium intake.
Visit 3 - End of study visit at 1 year (Day 0+1 year): PIC/CIC (1h15)
During this visit, the following examinations, tests and questionnaires will be performed:
Visit 3 will be the last visit of the study.

FMD is a non-invasive technique. It was assessed using an ultrasound approach with a high-resolution linear array transducer coupled with computer-assisted analysis software. With this software, changes in the brachial artery could be assessed in real-time through an automated edge detection system. Longitudinal images of the brachial artery were obtained with the transducer fixed on the medial aspect of the dominant arm, approximately 2 cm above the medial epicondyle of the humerus. The transducer was fixed on the arm by a special arm-holding device. The brachial artery diameter was acquired as per a 30 s baseline measure, after which a cuff was placed around forearm (3 cm above wrist) and inflated to 250 mm Hg for 5 min. After cuff deflation, the brachial artery diameter was continuously monitored for 2-4 min to detect the peak artery diameter. FMD was determined as the percentage change in diameter from baseline to peak arterial diameter.

The Flowmetry by Laser Doppler (FLD) is a non-invasive and validated technique for continuous measurement of the endothelial dependent reactivity in local microcirculation. The flow estimated by this technique is based on the assessment of the Doppler shift of low-power laser light, which is scattered by moving red blood cells. Vascular endothelial function in the micro-vascular compartment is assessed using the laser-doppler system PeriFlux 5010 (Perimed) at the level of the skin of the hands by following the response to a reactive hyperemia induced by a temporary occlusion of the brachial artery (same stimulus as for FMD measurement).

The carotid-femoral Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV) is an established index of arterial stiffness. Pulse, which travels at a higher velocity in stiff arterial vessels, is calculated from measurements of pulse transit time and the distance travelled between the 2 considered recording sites (i.e., carotid artery and femoral artery). The measurements are performed using a validated non-invasive device (SphygmoCor; AtCor Medical Pty. Ltd.) that allows online pulse wave recording and automatic PWV calculation [PWV = distance (m)/transit time (s)].

The measurements will be performed using an ATS thermode applied to the dominant arm of the patients. The Pathway-Medoc system associated with the thermode allows, from a base value of 32°C, to deliver adjustable temperature peaks (in the hot or in the cold and according to a regular slope of 1°C) and controlled by fast feedback, which allows to adapt to the different sensitivity thresholds of the C and A fibers. This device will be used to evaluate: the sensitivity threshold to heat, the sensitivity threshold to cold, the pain threshold to heat and the pain threshold to cold. The determination of each threshold will be established by an average of three measurements.

The patients are seated, the ATS thermode associated with the Pathway is applied to the dominant forearm. From the baseline value of 32°C, the Pathway delivers a "Pain 60 / Test stimulus" for 10 seconds, and the patient scores the pain on a visual numerical scale from 0 to 100. Then, the Pathway delivers a "Pain 60 / Test stimulus" for 30 seconds, and the patient scores the pain on the same scale. Fifteen minutes after the end of the two stimulations, the patient immersed the non-dominant arm for 60 seconds in a water bath at 46.5°C. Then a second identical sequence of 10 and 30 second stimulations was performed, with the scores recorded after each stimulation on the visual numerical scale from 0 to 100. The CPM effect is measured by taking the difference between the pain scores on the visual numerical scale before and after immersion.

The PSQI is a self-administered questionnaire with 19 items. It was developed to measure sleep quality in the month prior to the patient interview. This questionnaire includes 7 components: subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, habitual sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance, hypnotic medication use and daytime dysfunction.
The global score (0 to 21) is obtained by adding the sub-scores of the 7 components, each ranging from 0 to 3 points. In the absence of an answer to one or more questions, the subtotal using this question cannot be calculated and will affect the overall score.
The higher the overall score, the greater the impairment in sleep quality. An overall score >5 is an indicator of sleep disturbance.
