Abstract
BACKGROUND Assessment of postoperative ambulation in osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) patients treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA) is limited. This study aimed to define the incidence and risk factors for losing walking independence (LWI) at one-year postoperatively in patients with ONFH undergoing primary THA, and to establish and validate a predictive nomogram. METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of prospective collected data from patients admitted to a tertiary referral hospital with ONFH who underwent primary unilateral THA from October 2014 to March 2018. The Functional Independence Measure-Locomotion scale was used to quantify walking independence and was documented at a one-year continuous postoperative follow-up, which classified patients with a final score below 6 as LWI. Multivariate logistic regression identified independent risk factors for LWI, and a predictive nomogram was constructed based on the analysis results. The stability of the model was assessed using patients from April 2018 to April 2019 as an external validation set. RESULTS 1152 patients were enrolled in the study, of which 810 were used in the training cohort and the other 342 for the validation cohort. The incidence of LWI was 5.93%. Multivariate analysis revealed that age 62 years or older (odd ratio (OR) = 2.37, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.07-5.24), Charlson's comorbidity index 3 or higher (OR = 3.64, 95% CI 1.09-12.14), Association Research Circulation Osseous stage IV (OR = 2.16, 95% CI 1.03-4.54), reduced femoral offset (OR = 2.41, 95% CI 1.16-5.03), and a higher controlling nutritional status score (OR = 1.14, 95% CI 1.01-1.30) were independent risk factors of LWI. The nomogram had a concordance index of 0.773 and a Brier score of 0.049 in the training set, with corrected values of 0.747 and 0.051 after internal validation. The receiver-operating characteristic curve, calibration curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow test, and decision curve analysis all performed well in both the training and validation cohorts. CONCLUSIONS This study reported a 5.93% incidence of LWI and established a risk prediction model in patients undergoing THA for ONFH, supporting targeted screening and intervention to assist surgeons in assessing ambulation capacity and managing rehabilitation.

Abstract
Malnutrition is a prevalent, yet often underdiagnosed and undertreated, condition in older adults. It is characterized by weight loss and/or reduced muscle mass due to diminished caloric intake, inflammation, and/or disease burden. In return, malnutrition can lead to diminished skeletal muscle functionality and disability, among others. Malnutrition plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of two prevalent geriatric syndromes, namely sarcopenia and frailty. The complex interplay between malnutrition, sarcopenia, and frailty significantly impacts the older population, leading to increased morbidity, mortality, hospitalization rates, quality-of-life, and healthcare costs. Given the prognostic significance of malnutrition in geriatric care, recent guidelines emphasized the role of nutritional support in vulnerable populations. A group of vulnerable populations to malnutrition, sarcopenia, and frailty are older patients with hip fractures, cancer patients, and those with sarcopenic dysphagia. This article highlights the importance of individualized nutritional assessment and treatment in the management of vulnerable populations such as older patients with hip fractures, cancer, and those suffering from sarcopenic dysphagia. It presents practical protocols and guidelines that can be instrumental in enhancing the nutritional care of these groups, thereby improving their overall health outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to explore the association combined nutritional status and activities of daily living disability with all-cause mortality of older adults with hip fracture in the first year after hospitalization. METHODS This is a single-center retrospective cohort study in older adults with hip fracture patients. Clinical data and laboratory results were collected from electronic medical record system of our hospital (2014-2021). The endpoint of this study was all-cause mortality in the first year after hospitalization. RESULTS A total of 303 older adults were enrolled and all-cause mortality was 21.8%. The study population was categorized by CONUT score. Patients in CONUT score 5-12 had a higher age, ASA status, CRP and creatinine level, more patients with history of fracture, pneumonia and delirium, meanwhile, lower BMI and ADL score, lower hemoglobin, lymphocyte, total protein, albumin, triglyceride, total cholesterol and one year survival than those in CONUT score 0-4 (all P < 0.05). Multivariable Cox analysis showed that BMI, ADL score and CONUT score were independent risk factors for all-cause mortality of hip fracture in older adults (HR (95% CI):2.808(1.638, 4.814), P < 0.001; 2.862(1.637, 5.003), P < 0.001; 2.322(1.236, 4.359), P = 0.009, respectively). More importantly, the combined index of CONUT and ADL score had the best predictive performance based on ROC curve (AUC 0.785, 95% CI: 0.734-0.830, P < 0.0001). Kaplan-Meier survival curves for all-cause mortality showed that patients with CONUT score increase and ADL score impairment had a higher mortality rate at 1 year compared to CONUT score decrease and ADL score well (Log Rank χ2 = 45.717, P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Combined CONUT and ADL score is associated with one-year mortality after hip fracture surgery for geriatric patients.

Malnutrition-Related Health Outcomes in Older Adults with Hip Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Nutrients 2024; 16:1069. [PMID: 38613102 PMCID: PMC11013126 DOI: 10.3390/nu16071069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2024] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Hip fracture is a common condition in older adults, leading to disability and mortality. Several studies have demonstrated the association between nutritional status and the risk of a negative health outcome after fractures. In this systematic review, we evaluated the association between malnutrition and mortality, changes in mobility/living arrangements, and postoperative complications, such as delirium, in older patients with hip fractures. A literature search on the PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases, up to September 2023, was conducted to identify all studies involving older subjects that reported an association between MNA/GNRI/PNI/CONUT and health outcome after hip fracture. Meta-analysis was performed by a random-effects model using risk values (RR, OR, and HR) extracted from the 14 eligible selected studies. Malnutrition significantly increased the risk of any analyzed adverse outcome by 70% at 1 month, and up to 250% at 1 year. Malnutrition significantly increased delirium risk by 275% (OR = 2.75; 95% CI 1.80-4.18; p ≤ 0.05), mortality risk by 342% (OR = 3.42; 95% CI 2.14-5.48; p ≤ 0.05), mortality hazard risk by 351% (HR = 3.51; 95% CI 1.63-7.55; p ≤ 0.05) at 1 month, and transfer-to-more-supported-living-arrangements risk by 218% (OR = 2.18; 95% CI 1.58-3.01; p ≤ 0.05), and declined mobility risk by 41% (OR = 1.41; 95% CI 1.14-1.75; p ≤ 0.05), mortality risk by 368% (OR = 3.68; 95% CI 3.00-4.52; p ≤ 0.05), and mortality hazard risk by 234% (HR = 2.34; 95% CI 1.91-2.87; p ≤ 0.05) at 1 year. Malnutrition of older patients increases the risk of death and worsens mobility and independence after hip fractures. The results of the present study highlight the importance of nutritional status evaluation of older subjects with hip fractures in order to prevent potential adverse outcomes (Registration No: CRD42023468751).

Abstract
Fragility fractures occur because of low-impact trauma or even spontaneously in individuals with osteoporosis. Caring for older persons with fragility fractures can present several challenges due to the unique needs and vulnerabilities of this population. Older individuals commonly have multiple medical conditions, such as osteoporosis, arthritis, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes. These comorbidities can complicate fracture management and increase the risk of complications. Fracture repair through surgery may be more complex in older patients due to poor bone quality, decreased tissue elasticity, and higher chances of anesthesia complications. In addition, mobility and functional limitations post-fracture are highly prevalent in this population, affecting their independence and increasing their risk of institutionalization. Addressing these challenges requires a multidisciplinary approach involving orthopedic surgeons, geriatricians, physical and rehabilitation physicians, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dieticians, social workers, and caregivers. Preventive measures, such as fall prevention strategies and osteoporosis management, can also play a vital role in reducing the incidence of fragility fractures in older persons.

Abstract
Evidence on the effects of frailty, undernutrition, and heart failure (HF) on patients with hip fractures is scarce. This retrospective cohort study aimed to examine the effects of undernutrition and HF on outcomes in patients who underwent convalescent rehabilitation after hip fracture. Undernutrition was defined as body mass index (BMI) < 20.0 (Low BMI). Heart failure (HF) was defined as a B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) > 100 (High BNP). The study outcomes included the Functional Independence Measure motor domain (FIM-motor) and cognitive domain (FIM-cognition) at discharge. To consider the effects of low BMI, high BNP, and the simultaneous presence of both ("low BMI and high BNP"), we used multivariate linear regression analyses to examine whether these were associated with the outcomes. A total of 110 (mean age 87.4 years, 24.8% male) were analyzed. As a result, low BMI (β = -0.088, p = 0.027) and high BNP (β = -0.053, p = 0.015), each alone, were significantly associated with the FIM motor at discharge, whereas the simultaneous presence of "low BMI and high BNP" was significantly associated with the FIM motor at discharge, while the strength of the association was greater than each association alone (β = -0.152, p = 0.010). Further, the simultaneous presence of "low BMI and high BNP" was significantly associated with FIM cognition at discharge (β = -0.109, p = 0.014). Comprehensive multidisciplinary management is needed, including preoperative or early postoperative nutritional support and rehabilitation, followed by rehabilitation nutrition care management, in patients with hip fracture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition is significantly associated with unfavorable outcomes, but there is little high-level evidence to elucidate the association of malnutrition with losing walking independence (LWI) after hip fracture surgery. This study aimed to assess the association between preoperative nutritional status evaluated by the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score and walking independence at 180 days postoperatively in Chinese older hip fracture patients. METHODS This prospective cohort study included 1958 eligible cases from the SSIOS database. The restricted cubic spline was used to assess the dose-effect relationship between the CONUT score and the recovery of walking independence. Propensity score matching was performed to balance potential preoperative confounders, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to assess the association between malnutrition and LWI with perioperative factors for further adjustment. Furthermore, inverse probability treatment weighting and sensitivity analyses were performed to test the robustness of the results and the Fine and Gray hazard model was applied to adjust the competing risk of death. Subgroup analyses were used to determine potential population heterogeneity. RESULTS The authors found a negative relationship between the preoperative CONUT score and recovery of walking independence at 180 days postoperatively, and that moderate-to-severe malnutrition evaluated by the CONUT score was independently associated with a 1.42-fold (95% CI, 1.12-1.80; P =0.004) increased risk of LWI. The results were overall robust. And in the Fine and Gray hazard model, the result was still statistically significant despite the apparent decrease in the risk estimate from 1.42 to 1.21. Furthermore, significant heterogeneities were observed in the subgroups of age, BMI, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, Charlson's comorbidity index, and surgical delay ( P for interaction < 0.05). CONCLUSION Preoperative malnutrition is a significant risk factor for LWI after hip fracture surgery, and nutrition screening on admission would generate potential health benefits.

Abstract
Many countries are facing the advent of super-aging societies, where sarcopenia and frailty will become pertinent problems. The prevalence of comorbidities is a major problem in countries with aged populations as elderly people suffer from various diseases, such as diabetes, heart failure, chronic kidney disease and dementia. All of these diseases are associated with sarcopenia and frailty, and they frequently cause falls, fractures, and a decline in activities of daily living. Fractures in the elderly people are associated with bone fragility, which is influenced by diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Nutritional support for chronic disease patients and sarcopenic individuals with adequate energy and protein intake, vitamin D supplementation, blood glucose level management for individuals with diabetes, obesity prevention, nutritional education for healthy individuals, and the enlightenment of society could be crucial to solve the health-related problems in super-aging societies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteoporosis is a major disease state associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and health care costs. Less than half of the individuals sustaining a low energy hip fracture are diagnosed and treated for the underlying osteoporosis. OBJECTIVE A multidisciplinary Canadian hip fracture working group has developed practical recommendations to meet Canadian quality indicators in post hip fracture care. METHODS A comprehensive narrative review was conducted to identify and synthesize key articles on post hip fracture orthogeriatric care for each of the individual sections and develop recommendations. These recommendations are based on the best evidence available today. CONCLUSION Recommendations are anticipated to reduce recurrent fractures, improve mobility and healthcare outcomes post hip fracture, and reduce healthcare costs. Key messages to enhance postoperative care are also provided.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This article presents the initial recommendations of the French Rheumatology Society (Société Française de Rhumatologie - SFR) and the Osteoporosis Research and Information Group (Groupe de Recherche et d'Informations sur les Ostéoporoses - GRIO) on the role of diet in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. METHODS The recommendations were produced by a working group composed of rheumatologists, physician nutrition specialists and a geriatrician. Fifteen (15) questions pertaining to "daily practices" were preselected by the working group. For the literature review, the working group focussed mainly on the effects of diet on bone mineral density (BMD) and fractures, and primarily on meta-analyses of longitudinal studies and dietary intervention studies. RESULTS A Mediterranean-type diet and the daily consumption of 2 to 3 dairy products are recommended. Together, these provide the calcium and "high quality" protein required to maintain a normal calcium-phosphorus balance and bone metabolism, and are associated with lower fracture risk. Conversely, unbalanced Western diets, vegan diets, weight-loss diets in non-overweight individuals, alcohol consumption and daily consumption of sodas are advised against. In terms of the beneficial effects on bone mineral density and fracture risk, current scientific data are either insufficient or too divergent to recommend increasing or restricting the consumption of tea or coffee, vitamins other than vitamin D, vitamin D-enriched or phytoestrogen-rich foods, calcium-enriched plant-based beverages, oral nutritional supplements, or dietary sources of prebiotics and probiotics. CONCLUSIONS These are the first set of recommendations addressing the role of diet in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. More research is necessary to direct and support guidelines.

Abstract
Hip fractures are a common clinical problem with substantial morbidity and difficult recovery. Preexisting malnutrition has been shown to be common in those patients and a substantial risk factor for poorer outcomes, increased length of stay, and mortality. Additionally, great variability exists in reported malnutrition prevalence rates owing to the variety of nutrition screening and assessment tools utilized globally to identify malnutrition in these patients. Although previous data and a recent Cochrane review have not proven the value of nutrition supplements, we highlight several articles that show an opportunity for improvement in the nutrition care of patients sustaining hip fractures along with a multicenter randomized trial demonstrating the value of carefully designed nutrition intervention. There is also evidence that malnourished patients with hip fracture are still being undertreated. Current guidelines are reviewed, and continued efforts on the part of the clinicians to follow the guidelines as well as lowering the barriers to high-quality nutrition research is discussed.

Assessing Additional Characteristics of Muscle Function With Digital Handgrip Dynamometry and Accelerometry: Framework for a Novel Handgrip Strength Protocol. J Am Med Dir Assoc 2021; 22:2313-2318. [PMID: 34166628 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamda.2021.05.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2021] [Revised: 05/06/2021] [Accepted: 05/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Maximal handgrip strength (HGS) is a convenient and reliable, but incomplete, assessment of muscle function. Although low HGS is a powerful predictor of poor health, several limitations to maximal HGS exist. The predictive value of HGS is restricted because low HGS is associated with a wide range of unspecified health conditions, and other characteristics of muscle function aside from strength capacity are not evaluated. Current HGS protocol guidelines emphasize the ascertainment of maximal force, which is only a single muscle function characteristic. Muscle function is intrinsically multivariable, and assessing other attributes in addition to strength capacity will improve screenings for age-related disabilities and diseases. Digital handgrip dynamometers and accelerometers provide unique opportunities to examine several aspects of muscle function beyond strength capacity, while also maintaining procedural ease. Specifically, digital handgrip dynamometry and accelerometry can assess the rate of force development, submaximal force steadiness, fatigability, and task-specific tremoring. Moreover, HGS protocols can be easily refined to include an examination of strength asymmetry and bilateral strength. Therefore, evaluating muscle function with new HGS technologies and protocols may provide a more comprehensive assessment of muscle function beyond maximal strength, without sacrificing feasibility. This Special Article introduces a novel framework for assessing multiple attributes of muscle function with digital handgrip dynamometry, accelerometry, and refinements to current HGS protocols. Such framework may aid in the discovery of measures that better predict and explain age-related disability, biological aging, and the effects of comorbid diseases that are amenable to interventions. These additional HGS measures may also contribute to our understanding of concepts such as resilience. Using sophisticated HGS technologies that are currently available and modernizing protocols for developing a new muscle function assessment may help transform clinical practice by enhancing screenings that will better identify the onset and progression of the disabling process.
