Co-morbidities, complications and causes of death among people with femoral neck fracture – a three-year follow-up study

BMC Geriatrics, 2016
BackgroundThe poor outcome after a hip fracture is not fully understood.The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence of co-morbidities, complications and causes of death and to investigate factors that are able to predict mortality in old people ...

Dopamine D1 Receptor Contributes to Glucocorticoid‐Associated Osteonecrosis of Femoral Head Protection Through the ATF3/CHOP Axis to Inhibit Osteoblastic Apoptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work identifies a novel mechanism by which dopamine D1 receptor (DRD1) contributes to the pathogenesis of glucocorticoid (GC)‐associated osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) through the regulation of osteoblastic apoptosis, indicating that DRD1 serves as a critical mediator of the crosstalk between the nervous and skeletal systems.

Evaluation of a pig femoral head osteonecrosis model [PDF]

, 2010
Background A major cause of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is interruption of a blood supply to the proximal femur. In order to evaluate blood circulation and pathogenetic alterations, a pig femoral head osteonecrosis model was examined to address ...

Total medical costs of treating femoral neck fracture patients with hemi- or total hip arthroplasty: a cost analysis of a multicenter prospective study

Osteoporosis International, 2016
SummaryThe aim of this study was to determine the total medical costs for treating displaced femoral neck fractures with hemi- or total hip arthroplasty in fit elderly patients. The mean total costs per patient at 2 years of follow-up were €26,399. These

Bidirectional Interaction Between the Brain and Bone in Traumatic Brain Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) disrupts the blood–brain barrier and activates neuroimmune responses, causing metabolic disturbances and long‐term bone mass loss. Concurrent fractures accelerate healing and enhance osteogenesis but disrupt regulatory mechanisms, leading to altered bone dynamics and exacerbating neuroinflammation, complicating recovery ...

Associations between sedentary time, physical activity and bone health among older people using compositional data analysis [PDF]

, 2018
Introduction : Aging is associated with a progressive decrease in bone mass (BM), and being physical active is one of the main strategies to combat this continuous loss.

Influence of the arterial elastic component on the response to balloon angioplasty in femoral arteries of a healthy porcine model

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the role of elastin in vascular response 28 days after balloon angioplasty using uncoated and paclitaxel‐coated balloons in a healthy porcine model. The results show higher elastin content in external femoral arteries, which is inversely correlated with vascular injury, inflammation, smooth muscle cell loss, proteoglycan and fibrin

Persistent femoral neck non-union despite valgus intertrochanteric osteotomy: Relevance for secondary cam-type impingement

Trauma Case Reports, 2023
Valgus intertrochanteric osteotomy is a well-established treatment in delayed union of femoral neck fractures as it converts shear forces into compression forces.
