Recommendations on hip fractures [PDF]
European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2016 Hip fractures among the elderly are one of the major fragility fractures in terms of quality of life, health outcomes and medical costs [1]. Since mortality and morbidity are high, hip fractures have a direct impact on public health [2] and are one of the main reasons for disability [3]. Increases in age-adjusted incidence of falls with accompanying

Advanced Science, EarlyView.IGFBP4 is upregulated in granulosa cells of aged ovaries across monkeys, mice, and humans. It inhibits YAP signaling, thereby suppressing cell proliferation and contributing to follicular dysfunction. Deletion of Igfbp4 in granulosa cells enhances ovulatory output, improves hormone profiles, and reproductive performance in aged female mice, suggesting ...
