Patterns of Discharge Analgesic Prescription in Hip Fracture Patients by Label of Cognitive Status: A Retrospective Pilot Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Pain relief is known to be under‐prescribed in cognitively impaired patients. Though cognitive impairment (CI) may lead to lower reported pain at times, differences disappear at higher pain levels, where nociception is similar between groups. CI research also exhibits reduced placebo responsiveness in patients.

Artificial intelligence‐based diagnosis of non‐displaced femoral neck fractures shows excellent sensitivity and specificity and reduces the need for computed tomography scans in emergency rooms

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of an artificial intelligence (AI)‐based system for the detection of non‐displaced femoral neck fractures (FNFs) on plain pelvic radiographs and to assess its potential impact on confirmatory computed tomography (CT) utilization.

Impact of Early Surgery on Clinical Outcomes of Super‐Aged Patients With Hip Fractures: A Retrospective Propensity Score‐Matched Study With 2‐Year Follow‐Up

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 533-543, March 2026.
Early surgery (< 48 h) in super‐aged hip fracture patients reduces 1–2 years mortality, complications, hospital stay, and costs, supporting timely intervention protocols. ABSTRACT Objective The global aging population has led to a significant increase in hip fractures among elderly patients, posing substantial clinical challenges.

Evaluation of Results of Unstable Intertrochanteric Femoral Fracture Fixation by Proximal Femoral Nail "PFN " Versus Dynamic Hip Screw

SVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: The most common implant used for intertrochanteric fractures is the dynamic hip screw (DHS). For the treatment of unstable fractures, cephalo-medullary devices are recommended, especially in cases where medial buttressing is absent.
