Incidence of hip Fractures [PDF]

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1980
The incidence of hip fractures in the period 1971-1976 was calculated. The overall incidence was about 3 per thousand above the age of 50 years and about 20 per thousand above the age of 80 years. Hip fractures were twice as prevalent in females as in males and the incidence was found to double for each 5-year increment in age.

Fracture fixation in the operative management of hip fractures (FAITH): an international, multicentre, randomised controlled trial

open access: yesThe Lancet, 2017
Summary Background Reoperation rates are high after surgery for hip fractures. We investigated the effect of a sliding hip screw versus cancellous screws on the risk of reoperation and other key outcomes.

Risk Factors for Hip Fracture in Older Men: The Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Study (MrOS)

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2016
Almost 30% of hip fractures occur in men; the mortality, morbidity, and loss of independence after hip fractures are greater in men than in women. To comprehensively evaluate risk factors for hip fracture in older men, we performed a prospective study of
