Attoh-Mensah E, Pothier K, Loggia G, Morello R, Chavoix C, Marcelli C. Involvement of cognitive abilities in the occurrence of fractures in fallers aged 55 years or older: a cross-sectional study. Aging Clin Exp Res 2024; 36:180. [PMID: 39212862 PMCID: PMC11364792 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-024-02830-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Both bone fragility and poor cognitive functions are known to contribute to fracture occurrence, but it remains unclear whether their contribution is independent of each other and which cognitive dysfunctions are most involved. This study aimed to clarify the involvement of various cognitive abilities in fall-related fractures among community-dwelling fallers aged 55 and over, and to determine whether poor cognitive abilities is a risk factor independent of bone fragility. METHODS In a cross-sectional study, we collected sociodemographic and medical data, including bone mineral density (BMD), and performed cognitive and mobility assessments in 189 individuals with a history of fall in the previous year. RESULTS Fallers with a fracture had poorer cognitive and mobility performance than non-injured fallers. Multivariate regressions revealed that cognition, BMD and other risk factors were independently associated with fracture among all participants (OR = 1.04, 95% CI = 1.01-1.08, p = 0.034 for completion time on part A of the Trail Making Test [TMT-A], and OR = 0.53, 95% CI = 0.33-0.84, p < 0.001 for BMD), particularly in women (OR = 0.77, 95% CI = 0.60-0.98, p = 0.039 for backward digit span score, and OR = 0.43, 95% CI = 0.25-0.75, p = 0.001 for BMD). CONCLUSION Thus, poor cognition, especially poor processing speed and working memory, is associated with an increased risk of fracture in fallers, particularly in women, regardless of BMD or other fracture risk factors. Hence, an in-depth cognitive evaluation should enhance the detection of fallers at risk of fracture, particularly in the absence of signs of osteoporosis, and thus ensure the best possible prevention.

Comput Methods Biomech Biomed Engin 2024:1-17. [PMID: 39066601 DOI: 10.1080/10255842.2024.2384475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2024] [Revised: 07/12/2024] [Accepted: 07/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024]
Abstract
Prediction of bone fracture risk is clinically challenging. Computational modeling plays a vital role in understanding bone structure and diagnosing bone diseases, leading to novel therapies. The research objectives were to demonstrate the anisotropic structure of the bone at the micro-level taking into consideration the density and subject demography, such as age, gender, body mass index (BMI), height, weight, and their roles in damage accumulation. Out of 438 developed 3D bone models at the micro-level, 46.12% were female. The age distribution ranged from 23 to 95 years. The research unfolds in two phases: micro-morphological features examination and stress distribution investigation. Models were developed using Mimics 22.0 and SolidWorks. The anisotropic material properties were defined before importing into Ansys for simulation. Computational simulations further uncovered variations in maximum von-Misses stress, highlighting that young Black males experienced the highest stress at 127.852 ± 10.035 MPa, while elderly Caucasian females exhibited the least stress at 97.224 ± 14.504 MPa. Furthermore, age-related variations in stress levels for both normal and osteoporotic bone micro models were elucidated, emphasizing the intricate interplay of demographic factors in bone biomechanics. Additionally, a prediction equation for bone density incorporating demographic variables was proposed, offering a personalized modeling approach. In general, this study, which carefully examines the complexities of how bones behave at the micro-level, emphasizes the need for an enhanced approach in orthopedics. We suggest taking individual characteristics into account to make therapeutic interventions more precise and effective.

Abstract
PURPOSE A history of fractures involving the distal radius, proximal humerus, spine, and hip may be associated with the incidence of subsequent hip fractures in older people. However, a comprehensive summary of this association using a rigorous methodology is lacking. Our objective was to systematically review the literature and examine the association between four major osteoporotic fractures and subsequent hip fractures in individuals aged ≥ 50 years. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, ICTRP, and ClinicalTrials.gov on February 15, 2023. The search included cohort or case-control studies investigating the association between these four types of osteoporotic fractures and subsequent hip fractures. We pooled the hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) using the random-effects model. We used the Quality In Prognosis Studies tool to assess the risk of bias in the included studies, and the grading of recommendations assessment, development, and evaluation approach to determine the certainty of evidence. RESULTS The selection process identified 48 studies for qualitative synthesis and 23 studies (2,239,217 participants) for meta-analysis. The overall methodological quality had a low risk of bias in 65% of the included studies. The association between a history of major osteoporotic fractures and subsequent hip fracture varied, with a high certainty of evidence for a history of proximal humerus and hip fractures (HR 2.02, 95% CI 1.75-2.33 and 2.86, 95% CI 1.92-4.25, respectively), moderate certainty for distal radius fractures (HR 1.66, 95% CI 1.53-1.81), and low certainty for spine fractures (HR 1.53, 95% CI 1.38-1.69). CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, a history of major osteoporotic fractures, particularly distal radius, proximal humerus, and hip fractures, is associated with subsequent hip fractures in older adults. Further research is needed to verify the association between a history of spine fracture and subsequent hip fractures. PROTOCOL REGISTRATION Open Science Framework ( https://osf.io/7fjuc ).

Risks of incident major osteoporotic fractures following SARS-CoV-2 infection among older individuals: a population-based cohort study in Hong Kong. J Bone Miner Res 2024; 39:551-560. [PMID: 38477768 PMCID: PMC11262151 DOI: 10.1093/jbmr/zjae041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
Population-based epidemiological studies on post-acute phase coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19)-related fractures in older adults are lacking. This study aims to examine the risk of incident major osteoporotic fractures following SARS-CoV-2 infection among individuals aged ≥50, compared to individuals without COVID-19. It was a retrospective, propensity-score matched, population-based cohort study of COVID-19 patients and non-COVID individuals identified from the electronic database of the Hong Kong Hospital Authority from January 2020 to March 2022. The primary outcome was a composite of major osteoporotic fractures (hip, clinical vertebral, and upper limb). COVID-19 patients were 1:1 matched to controls using propensity-score according to age, sex, vaccination status, medical comorbidities and baseline medications. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using Cox proportional hazards regression models. A total of 429 459 COVID-19 patients were included, 1:1 matched to non-COVID individuals. Upon median follow-up of 11 months, COVID-19 patients had higher risks of major osteoporotic fractures (5.08 vs 3.95 per 1000 persons; HR 1.22 95%CI [1.15-1.31]), hip fractures (2.71 vs 1.94; 1.33 [1.22-1.46]), clinical vertebral fractures (0.42 vs 0.31; 1.29 [1.03-1.62]), and falls (13.83 vs 10.36; 1.28 [1.23-1.33]). Subgroup analyses revealed no significant interaction. In acute (within 30 days) and post-acute phases (beyond 30 days) following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, we consistently observed a significant increase in fractures and falls risks. Our study demonstrated increased risk of major osteoporotic fractures after SARS-CoV-2 infection in both acute and post-acute phases in older adults, partly due to increased fall risk. Clinicians should be aware of musculoskeletal health of COVID-19 survivors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We investigated the utility of specific biomarkers-namely, c-terminal telopeptide (CTX), n-telopeptide (NTX), deoxypyridinoline (DPD), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-compared to conventional diagnostic methods. We hy-pothesized that these novel biomarkers could hold substantial value in the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of osteoporosis. METHODS The study was conducted over a three-year period, from January 1, 2020, to January 1, 2023. We enrolled a total of 520 patients aged 50 years or older who had been diagnosed with osteoporosis. Patients undergoing steroid treatments, which are known to contribute to osteoporosis, were excluded from the study. Additionally, we carefully selected and matched a control group consisting of 500 patients based on demographic characteristics relevant to the diagnosis of osteoporosis. This meticulous selection process resulted in a comprehensive cohort comprising 1,020 patients. Throughout the study, patients were closely monitored for a duration of one year to track the occurrence of pathological fractures and assess their overall prognosis. RESULTS As a result of our rigorous investigation, we identified CTX, NTX, DPD, and TRAP as pivotal biomarkers that play a crucial role in evaluating bone health, monitoring treatment effectiveness, and detecting pathological fractures in the context of osteoporosis. CONCLUSION Our study underscores the significance of these biomarkers in advancing the diagnosis and management of osteo-porosis, offering valuable insights into the disease's progression and treatment outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to estimate the incidence rate of re-fracture and all-cause mortality rate in patients with hip fractures caused by minor trauma in the first year following the event. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of patients over 50 years of age conducted in a referral hospital located in Tehran (Shafa-Yahyaian). Using the hospital information system (HIS), all patients hospitalized due to hip fractures caused by minor trauma during 2013-2019 were included in the study. We investigated the occurrence of death and re-fracture in all patients one year after the primary hip fracture. RESULTS A total of 945 patients with hip fractures during a 307,595 person-days of follow-up, were included. The mean age of the participants was 71 years (SD = 11.19), and 533 (59%) of them were women. One hundred forty-nine deaths were identified during the first year after hip fracture, resulting in a one-year mortality rate of 17.69% (95% CI: 15.06-20.77). The one-year mortality rate was 20.06% in men and 15.88% in women. Out of all the participants, 667 answered the phone call, of which 29 cases had experienced a re-fracture in the first year (incidence rate = 5.03%, 95% CI: 3.50-7.24). The incidence rates in women and men were 6.07% and 3.65%, respectively. CONCLUSION Patients with low-trauma hip fractures have shown a high rate of mortality in the first year. Considering the increase in the incidence of hip fractures with age, comprehensive strategies are needed to prevent fractures caused by minor trauma in the elderly population.

The medication-based Rx-Risk Comorbidity Index and risk of hip fracture - a nationwide NOREPOS cohort study. BMC Med 2024; 22:118. [PMID: 38481235 PMCID: PMC10938738 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-024-03335-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Few previous studies have assessed overall morbidity at the individual level with respect to future risk of hip fracture. The aim of this register-based cohort study was to examine the association between morbidity measured by the medication-based Rx-Risk Comorbidity Index (Rx-Risk) and the risk of first hip fracture. METHODS Individual-level data on medications dispensed from pharmacies (2005-2016) was retrieved from the Norwegian Prescription Database and used to calculate Rx-Risk for each calendar year. Information on first hip fractures (2006-2017) was obtained from a nationwide hip fracture database. Individuals ≥ 51 years who filled at least one prescription during the study period comprised the population at risk. Using Rx-Risk as a time-varying exposure variable, relative risk estimates were obtained by a negative binomial model. RESULTS During 2006-2017, 94,104 individuals sustained a first hip fracture. A higher Rx-Risk was associated with increased risk of hip fracture within all categories of age and sex. Women with the highest Rx-Risk (> 25) had a relative risk of 6.1 (95% confidence interval (CI): 5.4, 6.8) compared to women with Rx-Risk ≤ 0, whereas the corresponding relative risk in women with Rx-Risk 1-5 was 1.4 (95% CI: 1.3, 1.4). Similar results were found in men. Women > 80 years with Rx-Risk 21-25 had the highest incidence rate (514 (95% CI: 462, 566) per 10, 000 person years). The relative increase in hip fracture risk with higher Rx-Risk was most pronounced in the youngest patients aged 51-65 years. CONCLUSIONS Rx-Risk is a strong predictor of hip fracture in the general outpatient population and may be useful to identify individuals at risk in a clinical setting and in future studies.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of ozone (OZN) therapy on the dynamics of bone tissue in ovariectomized rats treated with zoledronic acid (ZOL). Female Wistar rats aged 6 months (n = 110) were subjected to bilateral ovariectomy (OVX). At month 3 post-OVX, 10 animals were euthanized to characterize the bone tissue architecture using microtomography (micro-CT). The remaining animals were divided into two groups: ZOL group, administered with ZOL (100 μg/kg body weight); saline (SAL) group (0.45 mL of SAL solution), both for 28 days. At month 3 post-treatment, 10 animals from each group were euthanized to characterize the bone architecture using micro-CT. The remaining animals were divided into the following groups: ZOL (n = 20), ZOL + OZN (n = 20); SAL (n = 20), and SAL + OZN (n = 20). The animals in ZOL + OZN and SAL + OZN groups were intraperitoneally administered with OZN (0.7 mg/kg body weight) once every 2 days. On days 30 and 60, six animals from each group were euthanized for analysis and structural characterization of bones in the femoral head and spine. Some samples of the femoral neck were subjected to biomechanical tests, while some samples were analyzed under a laser confocal microscope. The other samples collected from the femoral neck and spine were analyzed for area of neoformed bone and used for performing inflammatory cell and osteocyte counts. Data were submitted to statistical analysis considering a significance level of p < 0.05. Bone volume percentage and osteocyte and inflammatory cell counts were upregulated in the femoral head region of the ZOL + OZN group. Biomechanical analysis of the femoral neck revealed that the modulus of elasticity was similar between the ZOL and ZOL + OZN groups but differed significantly between the SAL and SAL + OZN groups. The positive areas for calcein and alizarin in the ZOL and ZOL + OZN groups were higher than those in the SAL and SAL + OZN groups. This suggested a positive synergistic effect of OZN and ZOL on the maintenance of bone mass and restoration of bone tissue vitality in ovariectomized rats.

Orthop Surg 2024; 16:38-46. [PMID: 37984859 PMCID: PMC10782247 DOI: 10.1111/os.13932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2019] [Revised: 12/05/2020] [Accepted: 12/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Hip fractures in elderly patients are associated with a high mortality rate. Most deaths associated with hip fracture result from complications after surgery. Recent studies suggest that some inflammation biomarkers may be useful to estimate excess mortality. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of admission inflammation biomarkers in elderly patients with hip fracture. METHODS We reports on a retrospective study of elderly hip fracture patients admitted to a hospital in China between January 2015 and December 2019. A total of 1085 patients were included in the study, and their demographic and pre-operative characteristics were analyzed. The inflammation biomarkers included monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and C-reactive protein (CRP) to albumin ratio (CAR). The predictive performance of NLR, MLR and CAR was assessed by receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis and the association between admission inflammation markers and mortality was evaluated by Cox proportional regression. RESULTS The 30-day, 1-year, 2-year, and 4-year mortality were 1.6%, 11.5%, 21.4% and 48.9%, respectively. The optimal cut-off values of admission NLR, MLR and CAR for 1-year mortality were 7.28, 0.76, and 1.36. After adjusting the covariates, preoperative NLR ≥ 7.28 (HR = 1.419, 95% CI: 1.080-1.864, p = 0.012) were found to be only independent risk factors with 4-year all-cause mortality, the preoperative CAR ≥ 1.36 was independently associated with 1-year (HR = 1.700, 95% CI: 1.173-2.465, p = 0.005), 2 year (HR = 1.464, 95% CI: 1.107-1.936, p = 0.008), and 4-year (HR = 1.341, 95% CI: 1.057-1.700, p = 0.016) all-cause mortality, While age, CCI score, and low hemoglobin at admission were also risk factors for postoperative all-cause mortality. CONCLUSION Admission CAR and NLR may be useful indicators for predicting the long-term mortality of elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery, and that more research is needed to validate these findings.

JBMR Plus 2023; 7:e10840. [PMID: 38130771 PMCID: PMC10731112 DOI: 10.1002/jbm4.10840] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Researchers have examined the link between consuming fruit and vegetables and the incidence of fractures for many years. Nevertheless, their findings have been unclear. Furthermore, the dose-dependent relationship has not been examined, and the level of certainty in the evidence was not evaluated. We carried out a dose-dependent meta-analysis examining the relation between fruit and vegetables intake and fracture incidence. PubMed, Web of Sciences, and Scopus were searched until April 2023 for cohort studies evaluating the relation between fruit and vegetables and fracture incidence. Summary relative risks (RRs) were computed from complied data by applying random effects analysis. To examine the level of evidence, we utilized the approach called the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE). Ten cohort studies comprising 511,716 individuals were entered. There was a nonsignificant relation between fruit and vegetables, as well as only fruit intake and any fracture risk. In contrast, high versus low analysis presented that vegetables consumption was linked to a 16% decrease in any type of fracture incidence (RR 0.84; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.75 to 0.95; I 2 = 83.1%; n = 6). Also, per one serving/day (200 g/day) increments in vegetables consumption, there was a 14% decline in the fracture risk (RR 0.86; 95% CI, 0.77 to 0.97; I 2 = 84.7%; n = 5; GRADE = moderate). With moderate certainty, a greater consumption of only vegetables, but not total fruit and vegetables or only fruit, might reduce the risk of fracture. These associations were also evident in dose-response analysis. Large intervention trials are demanded to approve our findings. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a health condition that involves weak bone mass and a deteriorated microstructure, which consequently lead to an increased risk of bone fractures with age. In elderly people, a fracture attributable to osteoporosis elevates mortality. The objective of this review was to examine the effects of macronutrients on bone mineral density (BMD), bone turnover markers (BTMs), and bone fracture in elderly people based on human studies. A systematic search was conducted in the PubMed®/MEDLINE® database. We included human studies published up to April 2023 that investigated the association between macronutrient intake and bone health outcomes. A total of 11 meta-analyses and 127 individual human studies were included after screening the records. Carbohydrate consumption seemed to have neutral effects on bone fracture in limited studies, but human studies on carbohydrates' effects on BMD or/and BTMs are needed. The human studies analyzed herein did not clearly show whether the intake of animal, vegetable, soy, or milk basic proteins has beneficial effects on bone health due to inconsistent results. Moreover, several individual human studies indicated an association between eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and osteocalcin. Further studies are required to draw a clear association between macronutrients and bone health in elderly people.

Abstract
Introduction Bone density regulation is considered one of the systems affected by thyroid hormones, leading to low bone density that can result in pathologic fractures, including hip fractures. This review aimed to update clinicians and researchers about the current data regarding the relationship between hip fractures and thyroid disorders. Methods English papers were thoroughly searched in four main online databases of Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and Embase. Data extraction was done following two steps of screening/selection using distinct inclusion/exclusion criteria. This study used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) checklist and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) as bias assessment. Results In total, 19 articles were included in the research. The risk of hip fractures in women with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is higher than hip fractures caused by osteoporosis. Men with hyperthyroidism and subclinical hyperthyroidism are at higher risk for hip fracture. Also, a decrease in serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) may be associated with an increased risk of hip fracture. Conclusion Reaching a consensus conclusion regarding the association between subclinical thyroid dysfunction and hip fracture is not feasible due to the heterogenicity of evidence; however, there may be a higher risk of fracture in individuals with subclinical hyperthyroidism.

Abstract
Hormones and mechanical loading co-regulate bone throughout the lifespan. In this review, we posit that times of increased hormonal influence on bone provide opportunities for exercise to optimize bone strength and prevent fragility. Examples include endogenous secretion of growth hormones and sex steroids that modulate adolescent growth and exogenous administration of osteoanabolic drugs like teriparatide, which increase bone stiffness, or its resistance to external forces. We review evidence that after bone stiffness is increased due to hormonal stimuli, mechanoadaptive processes follow. Specifically, exercise provides the mechanical stimulus necessary to offset adaptive bone resorption or promote adaptive bone formation. The collective effects of both decreased bone resorption and increased bone formation optimize bone strength during youth and preserve it later in life. These theoretical constructs provide physiologic foundations for promoting exercise throughout life.

Abstract
Targeted fracture prevention strategies among late-life adults should balance fracture risk versus competing mortality risk. Models have previously been constructed using Fine-Gray subdistribution methods. We used a machine learning method adapted for competing risk survival time to evaluate candidate risk factors and create models for hip fractures and competing mortality among men and women aged 80 years and older using data from three prospective cohorts (Study of Osteoporotic Fractures [SOF], Osteoporotic Fracture in Men study [MrOS], Health Aging and Body Composition study [HABC]). Random forest competing risk models were used to estimate absolute 5-year risk of hip fracture and absolute 5-year risk of competing mortality (excluding post-hip fracture deaths). Models were constructed for both outcomes simultaneously; minimal depth was used to rank and select variables for smaller models. Outcome specific models were constructed; variable importance was used to rank and select variables for inclusion in smaller random forest models. Random forest models were compared to simple Fine-Gray models with six variables selected a priori. Top variables for competing risk random forests were frailty and related components in men while top variables were age, bone mineral density (BMD) (total hip, femoral neck), and frailty components in women. In both men and women, outcome specific rankings strongly favored BMD variables for hip fracture prediction while frailty and components were strongly associated with competing mortality. Model discrimination for random forest models varied from 0.65 for mortality in women to 0.81 for hip fracture in men and depended on model choice and variables included. Random models performed slightly better than simple Fine-Gray model for prediction of competing mortality, but similarly for prediction of hip fractures. Random forests can be used to estimate risk of hip fracture and competing mortality among the oldest old. Modest gains in performance for mortality without hip fracture compared to Fine-Gray models must be weighed against increased complexity. © 2023 The Authors.

Alcohol Consumption and Risk of Fractures: A Systematic Review and Dose-Response Meta-Analysis of Prospective Cohort Studies. Adv Nutr 2023; 14:599-611. [PMID: 36966875 PMCID: PMC10334160 DOI: 10.1016/j.advnut.2023.03.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Revised: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Alcohol consumption remains inconsistently correlated with fracture risk, and a dose-response meta-analysis for specific outcomes is lacking. The objective of this study was to quantitatively integrate the data on the relationship between alcohol consumption and fracture risk. Pertinent articles were identified in PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases up to 20 February 2022. Combined RRs and 95% CIs were estimated by random- or fixed-effects models. Restricted cubic splines were used to model linear or nonlinear relationships. Forty-four articles covering 6,069,770 participants and 205,284 cases of fracture were included. The combined RRs and 95% CIs for highest compared with lowest alcohol consumption were 1.26 (1.17-1.37), 1.24 (1.13-1.35), and 1.20 (1.03-1.40) for total, osteoporotic, and hip fractures, respectively. A linear positive relationship between alcohol consumption and total fracture risk was detected (Pnonlinearity = 0.057); the risk was correlated with a 6% increase (RR, 1.06; 95% CI: 1.02, 1.10) per 14 g/d increment of alcohol consumption. J-shaped relationships of alcohol consumption with risk of osteoporotic fractures (Pnonlinearity < 0.001) and hip fractures (Pnonlinearity < 0.001) were found. Alcohol consumption of 0 to 22 g/d was linked to a reduced risk of osteoporotic fractures and hip fractures. Our findings show that any level of alcohol consumption is a risk factor for total fractures. Moreover, this dose-response meta-analysis shows that an alcohol consumption level of 0 to 22 g/d is related to a reduction in the risk of osteoporotic and hip fractures. The protocol was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD42022320623).

Musculoskeletal Pain, a Possible Indicator of Central Sensitization, Is Positively Associated With Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Progression in Community-Dwelling Older Men. J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci 2023; 78:997-1004. [PMID: 36149833 PMCID: PMC10235191 DOI: 10.1093/gerona/glac204] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Musculoskeletal pain, a possible marker of central sensitization, is associated with higher prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) among older men. We investigated whether musculoskeletal pain is associated with LUTS progression. METHODS Participants were 5 569 men age ≥65 years enrolled in the prospective, multicenter Osteoporotic Fractures in Men (MrOS) Study. Self-reported musculoskeletal pain within 12 months before baseline was categorized as any pain and multilocation pain. Pain interference within 4 weeks of baseline was assessed with the SF-12 questionnaire. LUTS were assessed repeatedly with the American Urological Association Symptom Index (AUA-SI). Men with severe LUTS at baseline were excluded. LUTS progression was defined as the first occurrence of a ≥4-point AUA-SI increase during a 2-year follow-up interval. Incidence rate ratios (IRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated using multivariable pooled logistic regression. RESULTS LUTS progression was 37% higher among men with any musculoskeletal pain compared with men without pain (IRR 1.37, 95% CI: 1.21, 1.54). Positive associations were also observed between LUTS progression and pain at 1 (IRR 1.31, 95% CI: 1.13, 1.48) and ≥2 locations (IRR 1.42, 95% CI: 1.24, 1.60). Compared with men without pain interference, men with quite a bit/extreme pain interference were most likely to experience LUTS progression (minimal interference IRR 1.15, 95% CI: 1.03, 1.26; moderate interference IRR 1.28, 95% CI: 1.11, 1.45; quite a bit/extreme interference IRR 1.47, 95% CI: 1.22, 1.71). CONCLUSIONS Among men initially without severe LUTS, musculoskeletal pain is associated with an increased risk of LUTS progression. Studies using validated measures of central sensitization and LUTS progression among men are warranted.

Characteristics of preoperative atrial fibrillation in geriatric patients with hip fracture and construction of a clinical prediction model: a retrospective cohort study. BMC Geriatr 2023; 23:310. [PMID: 37202743 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-023-03936-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Atrial fibrillation is the most common atrial arrhythmia in the perioperative period and is associated with prolonged hospital stay, increased costs, and increased mortality. However, there are few data on the predictors and incidence of preoperative atrial fibrillation in hip fracture patients. Our aim was to identify predictors of preoperative atrial fibrillation and to propose a valid clinical prediction model. METHODS Predictor variables included demographic and clinical variables. LASSO regression analyzes were performed to identify predictors of preoperative atrial fibrillation, and models were constructed and presented as nomograms. Area under the curve, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to examine the discriminative power, calibration, and clinical efficacy of the predictive models. Bootstrapping was used for validation. RESULTS A total of 1415 elderly patients with hip fractures were analyzed. Overall, 7.1% of patients had preoperative atrial fibrillation, and they were at significant risk for thromboembolic events. Patients with preoperative AF had a significantly longer delay in surgery than those without preoperative atrial fibrillation (p < 0.05). Predictors for preoperative atrial fibrillation were hypertension (OR 1.784, 95% CI 1.136-2.802, p < 0.05), C-reactive protein at admission (OR 1.329, 95% CI 1.048-1.662, p < 0.05), systemic inflammatory response index at admission (OR 2.137, 95% CI, 1.678-2.721 p < 0.05), Age-Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index (OR 1.542, 95% CI 1.326-1.794, p < 0.05), low potassium(OR 2.538, 95% CI 1.623-3.968, p < 0.05), anemia(OR 1.542, 95% CI 1.326-1.794, p < 0.05). Good discrimination and calibration effect of the model was showed. Interval validation could still achieve the C-index value of 0.799. DCA demonstrated this nomogram has good clinical utility. CONCLUSION This model has a good predictive effect on preoperative atrial fibrillation in elderly patients with hip fractures, which can help to better plan clinical evaluation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the life-threatening coronary-associated pathologies characterized by sudden cardiac death. The provision of complete insight into MI complications along with designing a preventive program against MI seems necessary. METHODS Various databases (PubMed, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Embase, and Google scholar search engine) were hired for comprehensive searching. The keywords of "Prevalence", "Outbreak", "Burden", "Myocardial Infarction", "Myocardial Infarct", and "Heart Attack" were hired with no time/language restrictions. Collected data were imported into the information management software (EndNote v.8x). Also, citations of all relevant articles were screened manually. The search was updated on 2022.9.13 prior to the publication. RESULTS Twenty-two eligible studies with a sample size of 2,982,6717 individuals (< 60 years) were included for data analysis. The global prevalence of MI in individuals < 60 years was found 3.8%. Also, following the assessment of 20 eligible investigations with a sample size of 5,071,185 individuals (> 60 years), this value was detected at 9.5%. CONCLUSION Due to the accelerated rate of MI prevalence in older ages, precise attention by patients regarding the complications of MI seems critical. Thus, determination of preventive planning along with the application of safe treatment methods is critical.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The World Health Organization issued a call to action for primary care to lead efforts in managing noncommunicable diseases, including osteoporosis. Although common, osteoporosis remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. Primary care practitioners (PCPs) are critical in identifying individuals at risk for osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures; however, recent advances in assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of osteoporosis have not been incorporated into clinical practice in primary care due to numerous reasons including time constraints and insufficient knowledge. To close this gap in clinical practice, we believe PCPs need a practical strategy to facilitate osteoporosis assessment and management that is easy to implement. METHODS In this article, we consolidate information from various global guidelines and highlight areas of agreement to create a streamlined osteoporosis management strategy for a global audience of PCPs. RESULTS We present a systematic approach to facilitate osteoporosis assessment and management that includes four steps: (1) identifying patients at risk through proactive screening strategies, (2) investigating and diagnosing patients, (3) intervening with personalized treatment plans, and (4) implementing patient-centered strategies for long-term management and monitoring of patients. CONCLUSION Primary care has a central role in ensuring the incorporation of key elements of holistic care as outlined by the World Health Organization in managing noncommunicable diseases including osteoporosis; namely, a people-centered approach, incorporation of specialist services, and multidisciplinary care. This approach is designed to strengthen the health system's response to the growing osteoporosis epidemic.

Abstract
Changes in bone architecture and metabolism with aging increase the likelihood of osteoporosis and fracture. Age-onset osteoporosis is multifactorial, with contributory extrinsic and intrinsic factors including certain medical problems, specific prescription drugs, estrogen loss, secondary hyperparathyroidism, microenvironmental and cellular alterations in bone tissue, and mechanical unloading or immobilization. At the histological level, there are changes in trabecular and cortical bone as well as marrow cellularity, lineage switching of mesenchymal stem cells to an adipogenic fate, inadequate transduction of signals during skeletal loading, and predisposition toward senescent cell accumulation with production of a senescence-associated secretory phenotype. Cumulatively, these changes result in bone remodeling abnormalities that over time cause net bone loss typically seen in older adults. Age-related osteoporosis is a geriatric syndrome due to the multiple etiologies that converge upon the skeleton to produce the ultimate phenotypic changes that manifest as bone fragility. Bone tissue is dynamic but with tendencies toward poor osteoblastic bone formation and relative osteoclastic bone resorption with aging. Interactions with other aging physiologic systems, such as muscle, may also confer detrimental effects on the aging skeleton. Conversely, individuals who maintain their BMD experience a lower risk of fractures, disability, and mortality, suggesting that this phenotype may be a marker of successful aging. © 2023 American Physiological Society.

Dietary intake of pistachios or mixed nuts results in higher systemic antioxidant capacity with minimal effects on bone in adolescent male rats. J Nutr Sci 2023; 12:e11.

Abstract
Nutrition is a key determinant of bone health and attainment of peak bone mass. Excess oxidative stress induces bone loss while increasing antioxidant capacity promotes protective effects on bone. Nuts are rich in antioxidants; therefore, we tested the hypothesis that compared to a control diet high in fat (40 % energy) and cholesterol, diets containing isocaloric amounts of pistachios (8·1 % g/g) or mixed nuts (7·5 % g/g) for 8 weeks would result in greater bone health in male adolescent (3 weeks; a state of continued skeletal growth) Sprague-Dawley rats. We found no difference in bone mechanical properties among groups. Tibial apparent density was ~5 % higher in the pistachio and mixed nuts groups v. control (P < 0·05) with no clear difference detected for the femur. Expressions of genes known to impact bone turnover and serum bone turnover biomarkers were unaffected by either diet relative to control. Serum antioxidant capacity was ~2-fold higher in the pistachio and mixed nuts groups compared with control (P < 0·05) but were similar between groups. Therefore, pistachios and mixed nuts may increase tibial density, in part, due to increasing antioxidant capacity. Longer dietary interventions may be necessary to elicit detectable changes in other bones (e.g. femur) and to detect potential mechanisms for the possible bone protective effects of nuts.

Abstract
Hip fracture is the most common complication of osteoporosis, and its major contributor is compromised femoral strength. This study aimed to develop practical machine learning models based on clinical quantitative computed tomography (QCT) images for predicting proximal femoral strength. Eighty subjects with entire QCT data of the right hip region were randomly selected from the full MrOS cohorts, and their proximal femoral strengths were calculated by QCT-based finite element analysis (QCT/FEA). A total of 50 parameters of each femur were extracted from QCT images as the candidate predictors of femoral strength, including grayscale distribution, regional cortical bone mapping (CBM) measurements, and geometric parameters. These parameters were simplified by using feature selection and dimensionality reduction. Support vector regression (SVR) was used as the machine learning algorithm to develop the prediction models, and the performance of each SVR model was quantified by the mean squared error (MSE), the coefficient of determination (R2 ), the mean bias, and the SD of bias. For feature selection, the best prediction performance of SVR models was achieved by integrating the grayscale value of 30% percentile and specific regional CBM measurements (MSE ≤ 0.016, R2 ≥ 0.93); and for dimensionality reduction, the best prediction performance of SVR models was achieved by extracting principal components with eigenvalues greater than 1.0 (MSE ≤ 0.014, R2 ≥ 0.93). The femoral strengths predicted from the well-trained SVR models were in good agreement with those derived from QCT/FEA. This study provided effective machine learning models for femoral strength prediction, and they may have great potential in clinical bone health assessments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the impact of home environment on effects of a diabetes mellitus (DM)-specific care model among older adults following hip-fracture surgery. METHODS A secondary analysis using the Home Environmental Barriers Scale assessed home environment (intervention group=81, control group=79) at 1- and 3-months post-discharge. Outcomes of physical functioning were assessed at 1-, 3-, 6-, and 12-months post-discharge. RESULTS The intervention group had better home environmental improvements compared with the control group. Participants were characterized as having good or poor environmental improvements. Those with good improvements and received the intervention had better activities of daily living compared with matched controls. Participants with poor improvements and received the intervention had better scores for hip range of motion and quadriceps muscle strength compared with matched controls. DISCUSSION A DM-specific home rehabilitation for older adults following hip-fracture surgery that includes assessment of the home environment can facilitate complex postoperative functional recovery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to explore whether height loss is associated with future falls and whether the combination of height loss and fall experience is associated with future falls. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this prospective observational study, a total of 765 individuals (354 men, 411 women) agreed to join the study. Baseline data on demographics, comorbidities, physical performance, and previous falls were assessed. Height loss was calculated as the difference between the self-reported height at a younger age and the current height and was divided into two groups: < 2 cm and ≥ 2 cm. Approximately 15 months after the baseline evaluation, follow-up questionnaires were used to assess the fall history. Participants were classified as either "non-fallers" or "fallers." Multiple logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between falls and each factor and to obtain adjusted odds ratio estimates. RESULTS The follow-up questionnaire was returned by 668 participants, 74 of whom (11.1%) fell at least once during the observation period. Multiple logistic regression analysis found that height loss of > 2 cm was a significant predictor of future falls, even after adjusting for other factors. Additionally, the combination of height loss and previous falls was a risk factor for falls. CONCLUSIONS We suggest that height loss of ≥ 2 cm is a predictor of future falls in older adults, and the combination of height loss and fall experiences may be a useful screening tool for determining fall risk.

Abstract
Purpose Recent years have seen an increased awareness of sarcopenia in the cross field of osteoporosis and sarcopenia. The goal of this study was to evaluate current bibliometric characteristics and the status of cross-sectional studies between osteoporosis and sarcopenia. Methods Publications related to osteoporosis and sarcopenia published between January 2000 and November 2022 were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection; bibliometric and visualization were performed by Microsoft Office Excel, VOSviewer, Citespace, and R. Results A total of 1128 documents written by 5791 authors from 1758 organizations in 62 countries and published in 405 journals were identified. USA was the leading country with the highest publication and total citation. University of Melbourne contributed the most publications, while Tufts University had the largest citations. Osteoporosis International was the most influential journals in this field with the highest publications, citations and H index. Cooper C was the most influential author, who published the 20 studies, had the highest local citations and the highest H index. The keywords were classified into 6 clusters: Cluster 1 (aging), Cluster 2 (frailty) and Cluster 3 (osteosarcopenia). Conclusion Our bibliometric results revealed that the global osteoporosis and sarcopenia-related research increased rapidly from 2000 to 2022, suggesting it was a promising area of research for the future. The future trends in the cross field of sarcopenia and osteoporosis would be the molecular mechanisms of crosstalk between muscles and bones, safety and efficacy interventions with a dual effect on muscle and bone and osteosarcopenia.

OBJECTIVES To assess the association of change in phenotypic frailty with concurrent worsening LUTS severity among older men without clinically significant LUTS at baseline. DESIGN Multicenter, prospective cohort study. SETTING Population-based. PARTICIPANTS Participants included community-dwelling men age ≥65 years at enrollment in the Osteoporotic Fractures in Men study. MEASUREMENTS Data were collected at 4 visits over 7 years. Phenotypic frailty score (range: 0-5) was defined at each visit using adapted Fried criterion and men were categorized at baseline as robust (0), pre-frail (1-2), or frail (3-5). Within-person change in frailty was calculated at each visit as the absolute difference in number of criteria met compared to baseline. LUTS severity was defined using the American Urologic Association Symptom Index (AUASI; range: 0-35) and men with AUASI ≥8 at baseline were excluded. Linear mixed effects models were adjusted for demographics, health-behaviors, and comorbidities to quantify the association between within-person change in frailty and AUASI. RESULTS Among 3235 men included in analysis, 48% were robust, 45% were pre-frail, and 7% were frail. Whereas baseline frailty status was not associated with change in LUTS severity, within-person increases in frailty were associated with greater LUTS severity (quadratic P<0.001). Among robust men at baseline, mean predicted AUASI during follow-up was 4.2 (95% CI 3.9, 4.5) among those meeting 0 frailty criteria, 4.6 (95% CI 4.3, 4.9) among those meeting 1 criterion increasing non-linearly to 11.2 (95% CI 9.8, 12.6) among those meeting 5 criteria. CONCLUSIONS Greater phenotypic frailty was associated with non-linear increases in LUTS severity in older men over time, independent of age and comorbidities. Results suggest LUTS and frailty share an underlying mechanism that is not targeted by existing LUTS interventions.

Dela SS, Paruk F, Cassim B. Clinical profile, risk factors and functional outcomes in women and men presenting with hip fractures in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Arch Osteoporos 2022; 18:7.

Abstract
Rationale Appropriate screening can prevent osteoporotic hip fractures (HF). There is little data on clinical risk factors (CRFs) from Africa. MAIN RESULT Subjects with HF had similar CRFs to high income countries and poor functional outcomes post HF. SIGNIFICANCE Screening and treatment algorithms to improve outcomes post HF need to be implemented. PURPOSE Limited data exist on clinical risk factors (CRFs) for and functional outcomes following hip fractures (HF) in South Africa (SA). METHODS In a prospective observational study conducted in two municipalities in KwaZulu-Natal, a structured questionnaire recorded demographic data, CRFs, self-reported chronic medical conditions and functional status. Parametric and non-parametric tests were used to test for differences and the McNemar test for change over time. RESULTS The median age of the 287 subjects was 72 years (IQR 64-80 years) with the majority women (67.2%), who were significantly older than men. Two or more comorbidities were present in 76.3%. Hypertension (71.4%) and diabetes (29.6%) were most common. Eleven (3.8%) reported a previous diagnosis of osteoporosis and four (1.4%) prior treatment for osteoporosis. A history of cancer (15.4% v. 1.2%, p < 0.001), previous diagnosis of osteoporosis (17.9% v. 1.6%, p < 0.001) and treatment for osteoporosis (7.7% v. 0.4%, p < 0.001) was significantly more common in private compared to public sector subjects. African subjects had a higher prevalence of HIV infection compared to Indian (12.5% v. 0%, p < 0.001) while Indian subjects were more likely to report two or more comorbidities (p = 0.003) and hypertension (p = 0.005) compared to African subjects. Common CRFs were a previous fracture (32.4%), prior fall (24.7%), weight below 57 kg (23.3%), smoking (19.2%) and alcohol use of more than 3 units per day (17.8%). Less than 5% reported a history of parental HF or glucocorticosteroid use. Functional status was available for 206 subjects. Of the 163 participants who had surgery, 81% were independent prior to the HF, compared to the significantly lower 6.7% and 56.4% at 30 days and 1 year post fracture, respectively. The proportion with some degree of dependency rose significantly from 19% pre-fracture to 43.6%, 1 year post-fracture. Walking up stairs and transfer from bed to chair were the most commonly affected activities. CONCLUSION Clinical risk factors for HF are similar to those published internationally and support the use of current risk assessment models in SA. Targeted management and rehabilitation programs are required to improve functional outcomes post-HF.

Abstract
Osteoporosis does not only affect postmenopausal women, but also ageing men. The burden of disease is projected to increase with higher life expectancy both in females and males. Importantly, osteoporotic men remain more often undiagnosed and untreated compared to women. Sex steroid deficiency is associated with bone loss and increased fracture risk, and circulating sex steroid levels have been shown to be associated both with bone mineral density and fracture risk in elderly men. However, in contrast to postmenopausal osteoporosis, the contribution of relatively small decrease of circulating sex steroid concentrations in the ageing male to the development of osteoporosis and related fractures, is probably only minor. In this review we provide several clinical and preclinical arguments in favor of a 'bone threshold' for occurrence of hypogonadal osteoporosis, corresponding to a grade of sex steroid deficiency that in general will not occur in many elderly men. Testosterone replacement therapy has been shown to increase bone mineral density in men, however data in osteoporotic ageing males are scarce, and evidence on fracture risk reduction is lacking. We conclude that testosterone replacement therapy should not be used as a sole bone-specific treatment in osteoporotic elderly men.

Abstract
Fractures of the femoral neck are one of the most common reasons for admission to an orthopedic institute. These patients also show multimorbidity (≥2 chronic conditions) and polytherapy (≥5 drugs). Multimorbidity and polytherapy are associated with a high risk of hospitalization and a reduction in quality of life. The present retrospective observational study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of multimorbidity and polytherapy in patients aged ≥65 years and surgically treated for femoral neck fractures at an orthopedic institute over 3 years. Multimorbidity was evaluated with Elixhauser’s comorbidity measure and polytherapy was obtained from the patient’s medical record. This study identified 917 patients (84 ± 7.6 years); most of them were females. Most patients presented ≥2 chronic conditions, the most frequent of which was uncomplicated hypertension, and most patients used ≥5 drugs, of which antithrombotic ones were the most frequently taken. No significant gender and age differences were found between the presence or not of multimorbidity or polytherapy. Multimorbidity and polytherapy were statistically associated with an increased and decreased risk of 1-year mortality, respectively. This retrospective study has evaluated the variables required for the establishment of a minimum core of descriptors of the prevalence of polytherapy and multimorbidity in the orthopedic field.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is one of the frequently encountered non-communicable diseases in the world today. Several hundred million people have osteoporosis, with many more at risk. The clinical feature is a fragility fracture (FF), which results in major reductions in the quality and quantity of life, coupled with a huge financial burden. In recognition of the growing importance, the World Health Organisation established a working group 30 years ago tasked with providing a comprehensive report to understand and assess the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most widely endorsed technology for assessing the risk of fracture or diagnosing osteoporosis before a fracture occurs, but others are available. In clinical practice, important distinctions are essential to optimise the use of risk assessments. Traditional tools lack specificity and were designed for populations to identify groups at higher risk using a 'one-size-fits-all' approach. Much has changed, though the purpose of risk assessment tools remains the same. In 2022, many tools are available to aid the identification of those most at risk, either likely to have osteoporosis or suffer the clinical consequence. Modern technology, enhanced imaging, proteomics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and big data science will greatly advance a more personalised risk assessment into the future. Clinicians today need to understand not only which tool is most effective and efficient for use in their practice, but also which tool to use for which patient and for what purpose. A greater understanding of the process of risk assessment, deciding who should be screened, and how to assess fracture risk and prognosis in older men and women more comprehensively will greatly reduce the burden of osteoporosis for patients, society, and healthcare systems worldwide. In this paper, we review the current status of risk assessment, screening and best practice for osteoporosis, summarise areas of uncertainty, and make some suggestions for future developments, including a more personalised approach for individuals.

Abstract
CONTEXT Whether repeated bone mineral density (BMD) screening improves fracture prediction in men is uncertain. OBJECTIVE We evaluated whether a second BMD 7 years after the initial BMD improves fracture prediction in older men. METHODS Among 3651 community-dwelling men (mean age 79.1 years) with total hip BMD at baseline and Year 7 (Y7), self-reported fractures after Y7 were confirmed by radiographic reports. Fracture prediction assessed using Cox proportional hazards regression and logistic regression with receiver operating characteristic curves for models based on initial BMD, BMD change, and the combination of initial BMD and BMD change (combination model). RESULTS During an average follow-up of 8.2 years after Y7, 793 men experienced ≥ 1 clinical fractures, including 426 men with major osteoporotic fractures (MOF) and 193 men with hip fractures. Both initial BMD and BMD change were associated with risk of fracture outcomes independent of each other, but the association was stronger for initial BMD. For example, the multivariable hazard ratio of MOF in the combination model per 1 SD decrement in BMD was 1.76 (95% CI 1.57-1.98) for initial BMD and 1.19 (95% CI 1.08-1.32) for BMD change. Discrimination of fracture outcomes with initial BMD models was somewhat better than with BMD change models and similar to combination models (AUC value for MOF 0.68 [95% CI 0.66-0.71] for initial BMD model, 0.63 [95% CI 0.61-0.66] for BMD change model, and 0.69 [95% CI 0.66-0.71] for combination model). CONCLUSION Repeating BMD after 7 years did not meaningfully improve fracture prediction at the population level in community-dwelling older men.

Smoking and fracture risk in men: a meta-analysis of cohort studies, using both frequentist and Bayesian approaches. Sci Rep 2022; 12:9270.

Abstract
Past studies indicate that men are more likely to smoke and be at higher risk of smoking-related conditions than women. Our research aimed, through meta-analysis, to assess the association between smoking and fracture risk in men. The following databases were searched, including MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, PsycINFO, ISI Web of Science, Google Scholar, WorldCat, and Open Grey, for identifying related studies. A random-effects model was used to pool the confounder-adjusted relative risk (R.R.). Frequentist and Bayesian hierarchical random-effects models were used for the analysis. The heterogeneity and publication bias were evaluated in this study. Twenty-seven studies met the inclusion criteria. Overall, smoking is associated with a significantly increased risk of fracture in both the frequentist approach (R.R., 1.37; 95% confidence interval: 1.22, 1.53) and the Bayesian approach (R.R., 1.36; 95% credible interval: 1.22, 1.54). Significant heterogeneity was observed in the meta-analysis (Higgin's I2 = 83%) and Cochran's Q statistic (p < 0.01). A significant association was also observed in multiple pre-specified sensitivity and subgroup analyses. Similar results were observed in the group containing a large sample size (≥ 10,000 participants), and the group has a small sample size (< 10,000 participants); the pooled R.R was 1.23 (95% confidence interval, 1.07–1.41) and 1.56 (95% confidence interval, 1.37–1.78), respectively. With the Bayesian method, the effect size was 1.23 (95% credible interval, 1.05, 1.45) for the large sample size group and 1.57 (95% credible interval, 1.35, 1.82) for the small sample size group. Smoking is associated with a significant increase in fracture risk for men. Thus, smoking cessation would also greatly reduce fracture risk in all smokers, particularly in men.

Abstract
Background In elderly, hip fracture is often complicated by perioperative heart failure, related to worse prognosis. We aimed to analyze the effects of integrated management bundle incorporating with multidisciplinary measures on in-hospital outcomes and early survival in elderly hip fracture patients with perioperative heart failure. Methods In this retrospective cohort study, a total of 421 hip fracture patients aged 65 and over who developed perioperative heart failure were included. According to different perioperative management modes applied, patients were retrospectively divided into multidisciplinary management group (Group A), including 277 patients, and integrated management bundle group (Group B), including 144 patients. The B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, complications, length of stay, and hospitalization costs were observed and compared between two groups. Overall survival was compared by Kaplan–Meier methods. Cox regression analysis was used to identify prognostic factors associated with overall survival. Results A total of 421 patients were enrolled for analysis, including 277 in Group A and 144 in Group B. BNP and CRP levels were significantly decreased compared with admission (P < 0.05). Furthermore, BNP and CRP in Group B decreased much more than those in Group A (P < 0.05). The reductions were observed in length of stay, hospitalization costs and incidence of pulmonary infection, hypoproteinemia, and acute cerebral infarction in Group B (all P < 0.05). The Kaplan–Meier plots showed significantly superior overall survival in Group B. Integrated management bundle was independent favorable prognostic factors. Conclusions The integrated management bundle incorporating with multidisciplinary measures significantly improved the therapeutic effect of perioperative heart failure, reduced inflammatory response, and yielded better hospital outcomes. It brought better survival benefits for geriatric hip fracture patients with perioperative heart failure. The results of this study can play an important role in clinical work and provide a valuable theoretical basis for selection of management model in elderly hip fracture patients with perioperative heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little is known about the incidence rates and importance of major modifiable risk factors for hip and major osteoporotic fractures in low- and middle-income countries. We estimated the age- and sex-specific incidence of hip, major osteoporotic, and any fractures and their associated risk factors in Chinese adults. METHODS This was a prospective study of 512,715 adults, aged 30-79 years, recruited from 10 diverse areas in China from 2004 to 2008 and followed up for 10 years. Age- and sex-specific incidence rates were estimated, and Cox regression was used to yield adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and population attributable fractions for risk factors. RESULTS The incidence rates of hip fracture in Chinese adults were 5.1 (95% confidence interval [CI] 5.0-5.3) per 10,000 person-years; they were higher in women than in men and increased by two- to threefold per 10-year older age. Among men, five risk factors for hip fracture, including low education (HR = 1.23; 95% CI 1.04-1.45), regular smoker (1.22, 1.03-1.45), lower weight (1.59, 1.34-1.88), alcohol drinker (1.18, 1.02-1.36), and prior fracture (1.62, 1.33-1.98), accounted for 44.3% of hip fractures. Among women, lower weight (1.30, 1.15-1.46), low physical activity (1.22, 1.10-1.35), diabetes (1.62, 1.41-1.86), prior fracture (1.54, 1.33-1.77), and self-rated poor health (1.29, 1.13-1.47) accounted for 24.9% of hip fractures. Associations of risk factors with major osteoporotic or any fractures were weaker than those with hip fractures. CONCLUSIONS The age- and sex-specific incidence rates of hip fracture in Chinese adults were comparable with those in Western populations. Five potentially modifiable factors accounted for half of the hip fractures in men and one quarter in women.

Increased risk of hip fracture mortality associated with intraoperative hypotension in elderly hip fracture patients is related to under resuscitation. J Clin Orthop Trauma 2022; 26:101783. [PMID: 35242530 PMCID: PMC8857490 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcot.2022.101783] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2021] [Revised: 01/19/2022] [Accepted: 01/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND As the US and world population ages, hip fractures are increasingly more common. The mortality associated with these fractures remains high both in the immediate postoperative period and at one year. Perioperative resuscitation in this population is of key interest to prevent organ injury and mortality. Our objectives were to evaluate the effect of fluid resuscitation and hemodynamic status in the form of mean arterial pressure (MAP) on inpatient mortality of hip fracture patients. METHODS An institutional database was queried to compare elderly hip fracture patients that sustained in-hospital mortality to a matched control cohort. Pre-, intra-, and post-operative intravenous fluid (IVF) administration and MAP were extracted from the electronic medical record. Time from hospital presentation to the OR was also recorded. RESULTS 1,114 total hip fractures were identified during the two-year study period, 16 of which suffered inpatient mortalities. The mortality cohort was then matched with a control of 394 hip fracture patients for the same period based on age, sex, and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI). Conditional logistical regression analysis found odds ratios (OR) indicating that longer time between presentation and surgery (OR per additional hour: 1.05; 95% CI: 1.01-1.08) and lower intraoperative minimum MAP (OR per 5 mmHg decrease: 0.77; 95% CI: 0.61-0.97) were associated with significantly increased odds of mortality. There was also a marginal relationship between greater intraoperative IVF administration and reduced odds of mortality (OR per 500 cc additional fluid: 0.61; 95% CI: 0.37-1.00). CONCLUSION Extended time from presentation to surgery and intraoperative hypotension were associated with increased likelihood of inpatient mortality in an elderly hip fracture cohort, with a possible additional effect of under-resuscitation. Further investigation into a safe intraoperative minimum MAP should be pursued. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III.

Differences in Hip Geometry Between Female Subjects With and Without Acute Hip Fracture: A Cross-Sectional Case-Control Study. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:799381. [PMID: 35282435 PMCID: PMC8907418 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.799381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 01/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although it is widely recognized that hip BMD is reduced in patients with hip fracture, the differences in geometrical parameters such as cortical volume and thickness between subjects with and without hip fracture are less well known. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five hundred and sixty two community-dwelling elderly women with hip CT scans were included in this cross-sectional study, of whom 236 had an acute hip fracture. 326 age matched women without hip fracture served as controls. MIAF-Femur software was used for the measurement of the intact contralateral femur in patients with hip fracture and the left femur of the controls. Integral and cortical volumes (Vols) of the total hip (TH), femoral head (FH), femoral neck (FN), trochanter (TR) and intertrochanter (IT) were analyzed. In the FH and FN the volumes were further subdivided into superior anterior (SA) and posterior (SP) as well as inferior anterior (IA) and posterior (IP) quadrants. Cortical thickness (CortThick) was determined for all sub volumes of interest (VOIs) listed above. RESULTS The average age of the control and fracture groups was 71.7 and 72.0 years, respectively. The fracture patients had significantly lower CortThick and Vol of all VOIs except for TRVol. In the fracture patients, cortical thickness and volume at the FN were significantly lower in all quadrants except for cortical volume of quadrant SA (p= 0.635). Hip fracture patients had smaller integral FN volume and cross-sectional area (CSA) before and after adjustment of age, height and weight. With respect to hip fracture discrimination, cortical volume performed poorer than cortical thickness across the whole proximal femur. The ratio of Cort/TrabMass (RCTM), a measure of the internal distribution of bone, performed better than cortical thickness in discriminating hip fracture risk. The highest area under curve (AUC) value of 0.805 was obtained for the model that included THCortThick, FHVol, THRCTM and FNCSA. CONCLUSION There were substantial differences in total and cortical volume as well as cortical thickness between fractured and unfractured women across the proximal femur. A combination of geometric variables resulted in similar discrimination power for hip fracture risk as aBMD.

Abstract
Male osteoporosis is a still largely underdiagnosed pathological condition. As a consequence, bone fragility in men remains undertreated mainly due to the low screening frequency and to controversies in the bone mineral density (BMD) testing standards. Up to the 40% of overall osteoporotic fractures affect men, in spite of the fact that women have a significant higher prevalence of osteoporosis. In addition, in males, hip fractures are associated with increased morbidity and mortality as compared to women. Importantly, male fractures occur about 10 years later in life than women, and, therefore, due to the advanced age, men may have more comorbidities and, consequently, their mortality is about twice the rate in women. Gender differences, which begin during puberty, lead to wider bones in males as compared with females. In men, follicle-stimulating hormones, testosterone, estrogens, and sex hormone-binding levels, together with genetic factors, interact in determining the peak of bone mass, BMD maintenance, and lifetime decrease. As compared with women, men are more frequently affected by secondary osteoporosis. Therefore, in all osteoporotic men, a complete clinical history should be collected and a careful physical examination should be done, in order to find clues of a possible underlying diseases and, ultimately, to guide laboratory testing. Currently, the pharmacological therapy of male osteoporosis includes aminobisphosphonates, denosumab, and teriparatide. Hypogonadal patients may be treated with testosterone replacement therapy. Given that the fractures related to mortality are higher in men than in women, treating male subjects with osteoporosis is of the utmost importance in clinical practice, as it may impact on mortality even more than in women.

Abstract
We have recently proposed a new approach to evaluate 2D femoral neck (FN) structure, named the Minimal Model (MM), that comprised FN areal bone mineral density (FNaBMD) and FNWidth and 2 new internal structural measures; (1) the standard deviation of normalized mineral mass projection profile distribution (FNSigma), and (2) the displacement between center-of-mineral mass and geometric center of mineral mass projection profile (FNDelta). The contralateral hip of 67 FN fracture Chinese male patients had a QCT scan shortly after fracture and was compared to 156 community participants without hip fracture. The QCT scans were analyzed using Mindways software to enable DXA-equivalent 2D images to be obtained; MM variables were calculated from these images. In FN fracture and nonfracture participants, the 4 MM variables as well as age, weight and height were compared. Compared to nonfracture, fracture participants were older, weighed less and were taller. After adjustment for these differences FN fracture participants compared to nonfracture had mean ± SD lower FNaBMD 0.54 ± 0.11 vs 0.70 ± 0.11 g/cm2 (p < 0.001); larger FNSigma 1.05 ± 0.11 vs 0.98 ± 0.10 cm (p < 0.001); larger FNDelta 0.43 ± 0.09 vs 0.33 ± 0.09 cm (p < 0.001), however FNWidth did not differ 2.96 ± 0.35 vs 2.92 ± 0.34 cm. All variables except FNaBMD and FNWidth were correlated; however logistic regression identified increased age and height, reduced FNaBMD and increased FNSigma as independent contributors to differentiating participants with FN fracture from nonfracture. Area under ROC analysis identified significant improvement in discrimination with addition of FNSigma to the base model of Age and FNaBMD (C statistic 0.88 and 0.91, p = 0.019). These analyses identified important internal structural information available from 2D DXA imaging that contributes to discrimination of FN fracture in addition to low bone mass. This analytical approach may contribute to improved clinical FN fracture prediction, extending value of widely available DXA technology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study evaluated the biomechanics of the proximal femoral nail antirotation-II (PFNA-II) in AO/OTA 31A2.2 intertrochanteric fractures based on the fracture reduction quality. METHODS Unstable intertrochanteric fractures were created according to the AO classification and repaired by proximal femoral nail antirotation-II (PFNA-II) using one of three medial cortical support groups. The specimens were tested using cyclic axial loading. The following parameters were recorded: force and stiffness at failure, maximum vertical and horizontal displacement, neck-shaft angle, and location and patten of failure. RESULTS In the cyclic loading test, the force at failure in the anatomical reduction (AR) group was greater than that of the positive medial cortical support (PMCS) group (984.22 ± 12.63 vs. 936.95 ± 16.78) N (P < 0.05) and negative medial cortical support (NMCS) group (918.04 ± 28.86) N (P < 0.05). The stiffness in the AR group was 4.77 and 31.9% higher than that in the PMCS group (P > 0.05) and NMCS group (P < 0.05). The maximum vertical displacement was the largest in the NMCS group. The maximum horizontal displacement in the NMCS group was 28.6 and 19.1% larger than that in the AR group (P > 0.05) and PMCS group (P < 0.05). The neck-shaft angle in the NMCS group was smaller than that in the anatomic reduction group (P < 0.05) and positive support group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION For the unstable AO/OTA 31A2.2 intertrochanteric fracture, there were significant differences in their mechanical stability among AR, PMCS and NMCS. The NMCS is not recommended during the intraoperative reduction.

Abstract
Objectives
In this study, we present the use of case specific three- dimensional (3D) printed plastic models and custom-made acetabular implants in orthopedic surgery. Materials and methods
Between March 2018 and September 2020, surgeries were simulated using plastic models manufactured by 3D printers on the two patients with pilon fractures. Also, custom-made acetabular implants were used on two patients with an acetabular bone defect for the revision of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Results
More comfortable surgeries were experienced in pilon fractures using preoperative plastic models. Similarly, during the follow-up period, the patients that applied custom-made acetabular implants showed a fixed and well-positioning in radiographic examination. These patients did not experience any surgical complications and achieved an excellent recovery. Conclusion
Preoperative surgical simulation with 3D printed models can increase the comfort of fracture surgeries. Also, custom-made 3D printed acetabular implants can perform an important task in patients treated with revision THA surgery due to severe acetabular defects.

Abstract
Objectives
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of novel coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) on the epidemiological characteristics of orthopedic fractures. Patients and methods
A total of 2,960 patients (1,755 males, 1,205 females; mean age: 39.6 years; range, 1 to 98 years) with orthopedic fractures were included in the study: 552 patients during the pandemic period (March 10th and July 1st, 2020) and 1,158 control patients in the same period 2019 and 1,250 control patients in 2018. Epidemiological characteristics, injury mechanisms, fracture locations and treatment details of the patients were analyzed and compared between 2018, 2019 and 2020 for adult and pediatric populations. Results
Of a total of 552 patients, 485 were adults and 67 were pediatric patients. In the control groups, of 1,158 patients (2019), 770 were adults and 378 were pediatric patients and, of 1,250 patients (2018), 857 were adults and 393 were pediatric patients. The proportion of proximal femur and hand fractures significantly increased during the pandemic period (p=0.025 and p=0.038, respectively). The most frequent surgical indication in the pandemic period was proximal femoral fracture. The proportion of home accidents as an injury mechanism significantly increased in the pandemic period compared to 2018 and 2019 (48.5% vs. 18.6% and 20.6%, respectively; p=0.000). The proportion of female pediatric patients significantly increased during the pandemic period compared to 2018 and 2019 (44.8% vs. 25.4% and 27.2%, respectively, p=0.004). The proportion of forearm fractures (p=0.001) also increased, and the proportion of tibia-fibula fractures (p=0.03) decreased. The most frequent surgical indication in pediatric patients was distal humeral fracture in both groups. Conclusion
During the pandemic period, proximal femoral fractures in the elderly remained a concern. In-home preventative strategies may be beneficial to reduce the incidence of hip fractures in the elderly.

Abstract
As many as one out of three fragility fractures occur in older men and the outcome of major osteoporotic fractures, in particular hip fractures, is worse in men than in women. Osteoporosis in older men is thus an important threat to the quality of life of individual patients and a considerable burden for society. However, only a small minority of older men with high or very high fracture risk are receiving therapy. This does not need to be so as tools for fracture risk assessment are available and several drugs have been approved for treatment. Nevertheless, the evidence base for the management of osteoporosis in older men remains limited. This narrative review summarises the evidence for older men on the burden of osteoporosis, the pathophysiology of fragility fractures, the clinical presentation, diagnosis and risk assessment, the patient evaluation, and the non-pharmacological and pharmacological management.

Abstract
Identification of risk factors for fractures is important for improving public health. We aimed to identify which factors related to physical activity and psychosocial situation were associated with incident fractures among 30,446 middle-aged women and men, followed from 1991-1996 to 2016, in a prospective population-based cohort study. The association between the baseline variables and first incident fracture was assessed by Cox regression models, and significant risk factors were summed into fracture risk scores. Any first incident fracture affecting spine, thoracic cage, arms, shoulders, hands, pelvis, hips, or legs was obtained from the National Patient Register, using the unique personal identity number of each citizen. A total of 8240 subjects (27%) had at least one fracture during the follow-up of median 20.7 years. Age, female sex, body mass index, previous fracture, reported family history of fracture >50 years (all p < .001), low leisure-time physical activity (p = .018), heavy work (p = .024), living alone (p = .002), smoking (p < .001), and no or high alcohol consumption (p = .005) were factors independently associated with incident fracture. The fracture risk score (0-9 points) was strongly associated with incident fracture (p for trend <.001). Among men without risk factors, the incidence rate was 5.3/1000 person-years compared with 23.2 in men with six or more risk factors (hazard ratio [HR] = 5.5; 95% confidence interval [CI] 3.7-8.2). Among women with no risk factors, the incidence rate was 10.7 compared with 28.4 in women with six or more risk factors (HR = 3.1; 95% CI 2.4-4.0). Even moderate levels of leisure-time physical activity in middle age are associated with lower risk of future fractures. In contrast, heavy work, living alone, smoking, and no or high alcohol consumption increase the risk of fracture. Our results emphasize the importance of these factors in public health initiatives for fracture prevention. © 2021 The Authors.

Higher-Impact Physical Activity Is Associated With Maintenance of Bone Mineral Density But Not Reduced Incident Falls or Fractures in Older Men: The Concord Health and Aging in Men Project. J Bone Miner Res 2021; 36:662-672. [PMID: 33278306 DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.4228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Revised: 11/15/2020] [Accepted: 11/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
High-impact physical activities with bone strains of high magnitude and frequency may benefit bone health. This study aimed to investigate the longitudinal associations between changes in loading intensities and application rates, estimated from self-reported physical activity, with bone mineral density (BMD) changes over 5 years and also with incident falls over 2 years and long-term incident fractures in community-dwelling older men. A total of 1599 men (mean age 76.8 ± 5.4 years) from the Concord Health and Aging in Men Project (CHAMP) were assessed at baseline (2005-2007) and at 2- and 5-year follow-up. At each time point, hip and lumbar spine BMD were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and physical activity energy expenditure over the past week was self-reported via the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) questionnaire. Sum effective load ratings (ELRs) and peak force were estimated from the PASE questionnaire, reflecting the total and highest loading intensity and application rate of physical activities, respectively. Participants were contacted every 4 months over 2 years to self-report falls and over 6.0 ± 2.2 years for fractures. Hip fractures were ascertained by data linkage for 8.9 ± 3.6 years. Compared with sum ELR and PASE scores, peak force demonstrated the greatest standardized effect size for BMD maintenance at the spine (β = 9.77 mg/cm2 ), total hip (β = 14.14 mg/cm2 ), and femoral neck (β = 13.72 mg/cm2 ) after adjustment for covariates, including PASE components (all p < .01). Only PASE scores were significantly associated with reduced falls risk (standardized incident rate ratio = 0.90, 95% confidence interval 0.81-1.00, p = .04). All physical activity measures were significantly associated with reduced incident fractures in univariate analyses, but none remained significant after multivariable adjustments. Older men who engaged in physical activity of high and rapid impact maintained higher BMD, while higher energy expenditure was associated with reduced falls risk. Coupling traditional physical activity data with bone loading estimates may improve understanding of the relationships between physical activity and bone health. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Physical exercise for bone health in men with prostate cancer receiving androgen deprivation therapy: a systematic review. Support Care Cancer 2021; 29:1811-1824. [PMID: 33119791 PMCID: PMC7892525 DOI: 10.1007/s00520-020-05830-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2020] [Accepted: 10/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a treatment used in men with prostate cancer (PCa); however it is responsible for many adverse effects, with negative impact on quality of life. ADT causes loss of bone mineral density (BMD) and skeletal muscle mass, alteration of body composition, and cognitive function, which altogether lead to increased risk of accidental falls and fractures. This systematic review analyses the effectiveness of physical exercise (PE) in preventing accidental falls and fractures and reducing the loss of BMD in men with PCa receiving ADT. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and the Cochrane Library for articles between database inception and September 2, 2020. Eligible studies included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the effects of exercise on bone health in men with PCa receiving ADT. RESULTS Nine RCTs were included. Experimental PE consisted in multicomponent programmes that involved aerobic, resistance, impact-loading exercise, and football training. None of the RCTs investigated the risk of accidental falls and fractures, while two trials reported beneficial effects of PE on lumbar spine, hip, and femoral shaft BMD. No further significant difference was detected in the outcomes investigated. CONCLUSION Evidence of the effectiveness of PE to prevent the risk of accidental falls and fractures and BMD loss is lacking. Nevertheless, clinical guidelines recommend PE as a part of the clinical management of men with PCa receiving ADT due to its known numerous health benefits. Research should focus on PE strategies to prevent accidental falls, a clinically relevant outcome in this vulnerable population. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study protocol was registered with International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO, number CRD 42020158444 ) on 04/28/2020.
