The associations of markers of endothelial dysfunction with hip fracture risk
ConclusionsAmong older adults, two measures of endothelial dysfunction were not significantly associated with hip fracture risk. There was a trend for higher fracture risk with lower FMD. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Bad to the bones: prescribing of drugs for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in patients on chronic glucocorticoids
ConclusionPrescribing rate of osteoporosis pharmacologic treatment in patients using chronic glucocorticoids is low. Examining practices with higher prescribing rates may offer insight into improving protection against osteoporosis-induced fractures. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Zoledronic acid and denosumab for periprosthetic bone mineral density loss after joint arthroplasty: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
ConclusionIn the current analysis with evidence on the efficacy and safety of ZA and denosumab, the authors recommend the use of ZA or denosumab treatment for periprosthetic bone mineral density loss.Systematic review registration: PROSPERO registration number: CRD42022369273 (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Bracing and taping interventions for individuals with vertebral fragility fractures: a systematic review of randomized controlled trials with GRADE assessment
ConclusionsSpinal orthoses may improve pain in people with vertebral fractures; however, we cannot draw definitive conclusions on the efficacy or harms of bracing or taping due to the very low certainty evidence and the small number of studies. Effects on other outcomes are uncertain. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

The effect of patient positioning on measurements of bone mineral density of the proximal femur: a simulation study using computed tomographic images
ConclusionThis simulation study quantified the amount of BMD change induced by altering the hip position. Based on these results, we recommend that patients be positioned carefully when acquiring DXA images. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Fracture liaison services combined with online home nursing care in fragility hip fracture: a comparative effectiveness pilot study
ConclusionsWe recommend the combination of FLS with online home nursing care, considering the local environment, to economically and conveniently monitor patients, reduce falls and refractures, and improve care and medication adherence. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Association of early-life famine exposure with low bone mass in adulthood
ConclusionFamine exposure during early life especially childhood and adolescence is associated with decreased bone mass in adulthood in women but did not affect bone mass in men. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Bone mineral density response to antiosteoporotic drugs in older depressed adults
ConclusionsOur study has shown that the presence of depression and/or serotonergic antidepressant use was associated with non-response to osteoporosis treatment in older adults. The results of our study may guide physicians to make treatment decisions in older individuals with depression. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

The association of osteoporosis and geriatric syndromes in the elderly: data from the Russian epidemiological study EVKALIPT
ConclusionsOsteoporosis is associated with almost all GSs. The association of osteoporosis with advanced GSs aggravates the condition of these patients. Early diagnosis of osteoporosis and GSs is very important. Additional programs should be adopted by the state to introduce information about the possibilities of working with elderly patients: early detection and correction of osteoporosis.

Socio-demographic disparities in health-related quality of life after hip fracture in China: evidence from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study
ConclusionHip fracture significantly affects people ’s HRQoL in China, and the impact is more profound for those with lower educational attainment or living in rural areas. Targeted interventions should be designed to narrow this inequity. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Risk of osteoporotic fracture and refracture: the importance of index fracture site
ConclusionsSustaining a subsequent fracture after an index fracture is a common event in the population over age 50, more commonly occurring within 6  months of index fracture. Analysis of fracture site correlation shows that refracture risk is increased mainly when index and subsequent fracture site are the same. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Three-year outcomes of a fracture liaison service model at a university-based tertiary care hospital in Thailand
ConclusionsThis study confirms the benefits of having a multidisciplinary FLS care team to manage older people with FHF. An FLS improves the care of patients with FHF and the social support of caregivers and relatives. The FLS maintained the functional outcomes of the patients through 3  years of postfracture treatment. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)
