The association of FRAX with predictors of falls in the assessment of postmenopausal osteoporosis in Turkey: the fracture study of Turkey (FRACT study)
ConclusionAssessment of fall risk predictors should be one of the major pillars in the physical evaluation of osteoporotic patients in the FLS setting. FRAX is a useful tool to determine the fracture risk of patients with both static and dynamic balance impairments. Combining balance assessment with FRAX may be an important step to optimize osteoporosis risk assessment. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

The association between prealbumin concentration at admission and mortality in elderly patients with hip fractures: a cohort study
ConclusionThe prealbumin concentrations at admission were nonlinearly associated with long-term mortality in geriatric hip fractures, and 162.2  mg/L could be considered a prognostic factor of mortality risk. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Low plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels are not associated with a high risk of recurrent falls in community-dwelling Japanese adults: the Murakami cohort study
ConclusionLow plasma 25(OH)D levels are not associated with a high risk of recurrent falls in middle-aged and older people. Further longitudinal studies will be needed to confirm our findings in other populations. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

The Dutch multidisciplinary guideline osteoporosis and fracture prevention, taking a local guideline to the international arena
ConclusionIn our new multidisciplinary guideline osteoporosis and fracture prevention, we developed 5 “relatively new statements” that are all a crucial step forward in the optimization of diagnosis and treatment for fracture prevention. We also developed 5 flowcharts, and we suppose that this may be helpful for individual doctors and their patients in daily practice and may facilitate implement ation.

Osteoporotic quality of life, self-efficacy, and fracture protection behaviors in postmenopausal women
ConclusionIt is important to determine behaviors to prevent osteoporotic fractures in postmenopausal women, to raise the necessary awareness and to inform patients about the precautions to be taken. It is thought that it will increase patients ’ quality of life by increasing their disease-related self-efficacy. Therefore, there is a need for research on providing education to op patients and examining the results. (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Bone mineral density T-scores comparison between obese and non-obese individuals included in a Fracture Liaison Service following a recent fragility fracture
ConclusionsGiven the crucial role of BMD T-score in determining the need for anti-osteoporotic medication following fragility fractures, it is reasonable to question the existing T-score thresholds in obese patients.Graphical Abstract (Source: Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery)

Comparative analysis of anti-osteoporosis medications in preventing vertebral body fractures after balloon kyphoplasty
ConclusionThe anabolic agents were found to be more effective at reducing the incidence of SVBF (especially distant vertebral fractures) than alendronate. These agents decreased the rate of repeat BKP even after the occurrence of a fracture. Overall, the use of an anabolic agent for the treatment of osteoporosis after BKP is better than the use of alendronate, even when treatment is initiated in the perioperative stage.
