Abstract
Purpose This study sought to examine the utilization of bone health evaluations in geriatric hip fracture patients and identify risk factors for the development of future fragility fractures. Materials and Methods A consecutive series of patients ≥55 years who underwent surgical management of a hip fracture between September 2015 and July 2019 were identified. Chart review was performed to evaluate post-injury follow-up, performance of a bone health evaluation, and use of osteoporosis-related diagnostic and pharmacologic treatment. Results A total of 832 patients were included. The mean age of the patients was 81.2±9.9 years. Approximately 21% of patients underwent a comprehensive bone health evaluation. Of this cohort, 64.7% were started on pharmacologic therapy, and 73 patients underwent bone mineral density testing. Following discharge from the hospital, 70.3% of the patients followed-up on an outpatient basis with 95.7% seeing orthopedic surgery for post-fracture care. Overall, 102 patients (12.3%) sustained additional fragility fractures within two years, and 31 of these patients (3.7%) sustained a second hip fracture. There was no difference in the rate of second hip fractures or other additional fragility fractures based on the use of osteoporosis medications. Conclusion Management of osteoporosis in geriatric hip fracture patients could be improved. Outpatient follow-up post-hip fracture is almost 70%, yet a minority of patients were started on osteoporosis medications and many sustained additional fragility fractures. The findings of this study indicate that orthopedic surgeons have an opportunity to lead the charge in treatment of osteoporosis in the post-fracture setting.

Long-term proton pump inhibitor use and risk of osteoporosis and hip fractures: A nationwide population-based and multicenter cohort study using a common data model. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2022; 37:1534-1543. [PMID: 35501296 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.15879] [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: 01/05/2022] [Revised: 04/14/2022] [Accepted: 04/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Association between protonpump inhibitors (PPIs) and osteoporosis, hip fractures has not been fully elucidated. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between PPIs use and the risk of osteoporosis and hip fractures in the databases converted to a common data model (CDM) and to compare the results across the databases. METHODS This was a population-based, propensity-matched, retrospective cohort study that included patients aged ≥ 50 years who were prescribed with PPIs for over 180 days. We compared the incidence of osteoporosis and hip fractures between new PPI user and new user of other drugs using the Cox proportional hazards model and performed meta-analysis in the electronic health record (EHR) databases. RESULTS In the Korean National Health Insurance Service (NHIS)-CDM database, long-term PPI users had greater risk of osteoporosis [PPIs vs non-PPIs groups, 28.42/1000 person-years vs 19.29/1000 person-years; hazard ratio (HR), 1.62; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.22-2.15; P = 0.001]. The meta-analytic results of six EHR databases also showed similar result (pooled HR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.28-1.92). In the analysis of hip fracture, PPI use was not significantly associated with a hip fracture in the NHIS-CDM database (PPI vs non-PPI groups, 3.09/1000 person-years vs 2.26/1000 person-years; HR, 1.45; 95% CI, 0.74-2.80; P = 0.27). However, in the meta-analysis of four EHR databases, the risk of hip fractures was higher in PPI users (pooled HR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.04-3.19). CONCLUSIONS Long-term PPI was significantly associated with osteoporosis; however, the results of hip fractures were inconsistent. Further study based on better data quality may be needed.

Abstract
To compare the diagnosis andtreatment rates of osteoporosis and diabetes in Korea, a nationwide database was used. The results showed that although osteoporosis management is improving, it is still lower compared with that of diabetes; thus, further efforts are needed in this regard. INTRODUCTION This study aimed to re-evaluate the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis from the KNHANES 2016-2017 and compare the temporal change of the rate with those of diabetes as another prevalent chronic disease in South Korea. METHODS The prevalence of osteoporosis in 2016 was estimated using the previous data classified by age groups (50-59,60-69, and ≥70years) and the 2016 Korean census data. The physician diagnosis and treatment rates of osteoporosis in adults aged ≥50years were estimated using the 2016-2017 KNHANES data. The physician diagnosis and treatment rates of diabetes were evaluated using the KNHANES 2008-2009 and 2016-2017 data. RESULTS The estimated physician diagnosisrate of osteoporosis increased from 29.9% in females and 5.8% in males in 2008-2009 to 62.8% in females and 22.8% in males in 2016-2017. The treatment rate for the estimated total number of patients with osteoporosis increased from 14.4% in females and 3.8% in males in 2008-2009 to 32.2% in females and 9.0% in males in 2016-2017. An increasing trend in the estimated treatment rateof physician-diagnosed osteoporosis patients was not observed (48.3% [2008-2009] vs 51.5% [2016-2017] in females; 42.6% [2008-2009] vs 42.2% [2016-2017] in males). The physician diagnosis and treatment rates of diabetes were considerably better and more stable than those of osteoporosis. CONCLUSION Osteoporosis management in South Korea is improving but is insufficient compared with diabetes management. More extensive efforts are needed to improve the diagnosis and treatment rates of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Background A history of osteoporotic fractures is strongly associated with the subsequent osteoporotic fractures. To prevent subsequent fractures, the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis following osteoporotic fractures are very important. A distal radius fracture (DRF) is the second most common type of osteoporotic fracture in South Korea. We analyzed the rate of osteoporosis diagnosis within 6 months post-DRF. Methods We used data from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service nationwide claims database from 2010 to 2016. International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision codes and procedures codes were used to identify patients aged over 50 years with newly diagnosed DRFs; the osteoporosis assessments of these patients were then analyzed. We used Cochran-Armitage trend test to examine trends in osteoporosis diagnosis. Results A search of database identified 77,209 DRFs in patient aged above 50 years of age from 2011 to 2016. Among these patients, only 19,305 (25.0%) underwent diagnostic examination for osteoporosis. The number of osteoporosis examinations increased slightly, but not significantly, every year (P=0.061). Conclusions Clinicians who treat DRFs shoulder also evaluated patients for osteoporosis after DRFs.

Abstract
Background Procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP) is one of the most clinically useful bone formation biomarkers. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to independently evaluate the performance of automated total PINP assay and established age- and gender-specific reference intervals for PINP in healthy Korean population. Methods The imprecision, linearity, and detection capability of Elecsys total PINP assay was determined and reference interval was established using 599 serums from Korean population with normal bone mineral densities based on bone densitometry. Age groups were divided into 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and over. Results Elecsys total PINP had excellent performance in imprecision, linearity, and detection capability. When partitioning age groups in Korean male and female populations, there was significant difference in total PINP between different age groups. In male populations, PINP level was decreased with increasing age, then it remained steady after middle-age. In female populations, there was a decreasing tendency similar to that in the male population with a sharp increase in the 50 to 59 age group. Conclusions Elecsys total PINP assay showed precise and reliable performance in our study. We established age-related PINP reference intervals for Korean male and female population with normal bone mineral densities.

Abstract
Background This prospective cohort study used nationwide claims data to investigate the incidence of fall and fragility fractures in association with urinary incontinence (UI) in the elderly, and to compare mortality after fragility fractures in elderly patients with or without incontinence. Methods A total of 39,854 Korean adults (age, 66-80 years) who participated in health examinations between 2007 and 2012 and were followed up until 2015 were analyzed. Patient and comparison groups were classified according to the presence or absence of UI. The cumulative incidence of osteoporotic fragility fractures and falls in the 2 groups was assessed and compared. Hazard ratios for fragility fractures were calculated for the risk of UI in association with falls using a Cox proportional hazards model. Results Of 39,854 elderly participants, 5,703 were classified in the UI group, while 34,151 were placed in the comparison group. Fall rates were significantly higher (20.8%) in the incontinence group than in the comparison group (4.7%) (P<0.001). Women in the incontinence group (13.9%) showed a significantly higher incidence of all types of fragility fractures than those in the comparison group (11.8%) (P=0.005). After adjustment for confounders, UI was not a significant risk factor for fragility fractures in men (P=0.878) or women (P=0.324). Conclusions This study demonstrated that elderly women with UI have a significantly higher incidence of osteoporotic fragility fractures. In addition, elderly women are at higher risk for falls.
