Summary: This study aimed to identify predictors of outcome after balloon kyphoplasty (BKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF). The results showed that low BMI and subsequent OVCF were the main risk factors influencing patients' independent living ability one year after BKP.

Summary: The aim of this study was to assess 1-year mortality in an Irish hip fracture cohort and identify factors that influence survival at 1 year. The study found that within 1 year of sustaining a hip fracture, 20.5% of patients had died. Females who were independently mobile prior to fracture and mobilised on the day of or after surgery were less likely to die within 1 year.

Summary: A prognostic model for 1-year survival after fragile hip fracture in Asians was developed, with surgery, age, and albumin identified as effective predictors. The model has a discrimination c statistic of 0.814 and was internally validated with a corrected value of 0.795, indicating good predictive accuracy.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate whether easily identifiable serum investigations and patient identifiable factors on admission are associated with medium-term and long-term mortality. The study found that low albumin levels, advanced age, men, and a combination of high ASA with lower mobility status were independent predictors of mean 5-year and 7-9-year mortality. Serum albumin on admission can be utilized to identify patients who are likely to survive at up to 9-year mean follow-up and guide the decision for total hip arthroplasty over hemiarthroplasty.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the characteristics of claims-based data before a hip fracture among older adults with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias (ADRD) and their associations with postfracture recovery and 1-year mortality. The study found that distinct characteristics of claims-based data are strongly linked to postfracture recovery and 1-year mortality, which has important implications for the development of tailored interventions.

Summary: Hip fractures may lead to cardiac injury, especially in middle-aged and young mice. Aging and inflammaging are independent risk factors aggravating and accelerating cardiac alterations following hip fracture.

Summary: This study investigated the predictors of postoperative 1-year activities of daily living (ADL), quality of life (QoL), and mortality in Taiwanese older adults following hip fracture. Factors such as old age, comorbidity index, and anesthesiologist grading were found to be crucial predictors for mortality, while postoperative follow-up time, serum albumin level, cognitive status, and handgrip strength were significantly associated with QoL and ADL recovery prognosis. The findings suggest the importance of personalized risk assessment to improve functional outcomes and reduce mortality in older adults with hip fractures.

Summary: This study aims to determine the use of the Nottingham Hip Fracture Score (NHFS) in stratifying 1-year mortality risk among periprosthetic hip fracture patients and identify the 1-year mortality rates for surgically managed periprosthetic hip fractures. The study found that NHFS is highly predictive of 1-year mortality in this patient population, and there is no correlation between time lag from presentation to surgery and mortality.

Summary: This study compared the effect of integrated management bundle with multidisciplinary management group on 1-year overall survival and perioperative outcomes in super elderly patients with hip fracture. The study found that the integrated management bundle group had a significantly higher survival probability and a lower mortality rate than the multidisciplinary management group. The incidence of complications was also lower in the integrated management bundle group. Therefore, the integrated management bundle may be a more suitable management modality for super elderly patients with hip fracture.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate and compare the changes in handgrip strength (HGS) of patients with hip fractures within 1 year with those of patients with hip diseases. The study found that the preoperative HGS of the fracture group was lower than that of the control group, but there was no significant difference in the postoperative period. The HGS remained relatively constant for 1 year in the fracture group, indicating no development of general sarcopenia after treatment for hip fracture. Therefore, the predischarge HGS might be more reliable than the preoperative HGS in hip fracture patients.

Summary: Postoperative death within 1 year following hip fracture surgery is a significant concern, with reported rates up to 27%. This study compared different algorithms for predicting 1-year postoperative mortality in hip fracture patients, with logistic regression demonstrating better predictive ability and identifying key predictors such as metastatic carcinoma, ASA classification, sex, CCI, and age.

Summary: This study revealed that despite having a BMI over 25, overweight or obese hip fracture patients have a considerable rate of malnutrition, which significantly affects their clinical outcomes such as increased likelihood of 12-month mortality, post-operative delirium, and delayed post-operative mobility. Comprehensive nutrition assessment measures are recommended for all hip fracture inpatients to ensure appropriate clinical nutrition care.

Summary: The prevalence of cognitive impairment in hip fractures is 86.5%, and a MoCA score of less than 15 is associated with an 11.71-fold increased risk of mortality within one year after a hip fracture. Early attention and caution should be given to these patients for appropriate intervention to decrease mortality rates.
