Predicting Hospital Length of Stay in Orthopedic Trauma Patients Using Fracture‐Specific Machine Learning Models: A Multicenter Retrospective Prediction‐Modeling Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Hospital length of stay (LOS) is a key indicator for resource allocation, bed management, and discharge planning in orthopedic trauma care. Given the substantial heterogeneity of LOS across fracture types and the limitations of conventional approaches, this study aimed to develop and validate fracture‐specific machine ...

Cardiometabolic Multimorbidity Increases the Risk of Hip Fracture: A Longitudinal Cohort Study Based on CHARLS

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 9, Page 1916-1927, September 2026.
CMM increase the risk of hip fracture, especially in relatively younger individuals and participants with a history of falls. From the perspective of CMM, controlling the number of chronic conditions is expected to block the risk–amplifying effect of multimorbidity on hip fracture and reduce the cost of intervention. ABSTRACT Background Cardiometabolic
