Abstract
PURPOSE Intramedullary nailing is a common treatment for pertrochanteric fractures. However, implant-related mechanical failures, such as cut-out and cut-through, lead to higher rates of revision surgery, loss of autonomy, and mortality. Cemented augmentation enhances the bone-implant interface. This study compared the frequency of mechanical failures between augmented and non-augmented Trochanteric Fixation Nail-Advanced (TFNA) nails. METHODS This descriptive, retrospective study at a level 1 trauma centre included patients aged > 65 years with pertrochanteric fractures treated by a short augmented or non-augmented TFNA nail. The primary outcome was the comparison of cut-out or cut-through rates between groups at three and six months postoperatively. RESULTS Of the 181 patients analysed, 103 had augmented TFNA nails and 78 had non-augmented TFNA nails. There were no statistically significant differences between groups in terms of demographic characteristics, AO/OTA classification, or quality of reduction. The failure rate was significantly lower in the augmented group than in the non-augmented group: 1 (0.97%) versus 9 (11.54%) (p = 0.005). At six months postoperatively, there was no significant difference between the two groups concerning functional recovery, as measured by the Parker and EuroQoL 5-Dimensions scores. CONCLUSIONS For patients aged over 65 years, the use of the augmented TFNA nail may reduce the risk of fixation failures such as cut-out.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: The epidemiological pattern of the hip fracture burden attributable to falls in Central European countries is still insufficiently known. The aim of this study was to assess the regional and national trends of hip fractures due to falls in Central Europe from 1990 to 2019. Materials and Methods: Using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 study, this descriptive epidemiological study presents trends in incidence of and Years Lived with Disability (YLDs) from hip fractures due to falls in the region of Central Europe. All estimates (age- and sex-specific rates, and age-standardized rates) were expressed per 100,000. A joinpoint regression analysis was used to assess trends: the average annual percent change (AAPC) with a corresponding 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was calculated. Results: Among all new cases of hip fracture in the population as a whole in Central Europe in 2019, 3.9% in males and 7.0% in females were attributable to falls, while the share of hip fractures due to falls in the population aged 70 and over was 16.9% in males and 20.0% in females. About 400,000 new cases of hip fracture due to falls occurred in the Central European region in 2019 (220,000 among males and 160,000 among females), resulting in 55,000 YLDs (32,000 in females and 22,000 in males). About one-third of all new cases (59,326 in males and 72,790 in females) and YLDs (8585 in males, and 10,622 in females) of hip fractures due to falls were recorded in Poland. From 1990 to 2019, the age-standardized incidence rates of hip fracture due to falls showed a decreasing tendency in females (AAPC = -1.1%), and an increasing tendency in males (AAPC = 0.1%). Both in males and females, YLDs rates of hip fracture due to falls in the Central European region decreased (AAPC = -1.6% and AAPC = -2.4%, respectively). Conclusions: Hip fracture due to falls represents an important health issue in the Central European region, although incidences and YLDs declined in the most recent decades. However, further efforts to reduce the burden of hip fractures attributed to falls are needed.

Abstract
Diet is a modifiable factor in bone and muscle health. The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is rich in nutrients and contains key bioactive components with probable protective effects on muscle and bone deterioration. Osteoporosis (OP) and sarcopenia are diseases that increase frailty and susceptibility to fracture, morbidity and mortality. Therefore, it is necessary to combat them in the population. In this regard, MedDiet adherence has proven to be beneficial to bone mineral density (BMD), muscle mass, physical function, OP and sarcopenia. Hence, this diet is proposed as a therapeutic tool that could slow the onset of osteoporosis and sarcopenia. However, there is doubt about the interaction between the MedDiet, strength and fracture risk. Perhaps the amount of EVOO (extra virgin olive oil), fruits, vegetables and fish rich in anti-inflammatory and antioxidant nutrients ingested has an influence, though the results remain controversial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is known that standardized incidence rates of hip fracture vary among older people in Spain. So far, the results published on the validation of the FRAX® tool in Spain have suggested that the major osteoporotic fractures (MOFs) risk in our country is underestimated. These studies have practically been based on Spanish cohorts evaluated in Catalonia, a higher hip fracture rate area. The purpose of this study is to analyse the ability of the FRAX® in a Spanish mid-fracture rate population. METHODS Study design: Retrospective cohort study. MEASURES MOFs: hip, humerus, wrist, spine fractures. Risk of fracture assessed by calculating odds ratios (ORs). Predictive capacity of FRAX® according to the osteoporotic fractures observed between 2009 and 2018 (ObsFr) to predicted by FRAX® without densitometry in 2009 (PredFr) ratio. RESULTS 285 participants (156 women, 54.7%) with a mean ± SD of 61.5 ± 14 years. Twenty-four people sustained 27 fractures (15 MOFs). Significant ORs were observed for an age ≥ 65 (2.92; 95% CI, 1.07-7.96), female sex (3.18; 95% CI, 1.24-8.16), rheumatoid arthritis (0.62; 95% CI, 2.03-55.55), proton pump (2.71; 95% CI, 1.20-6.09) and serotonin reuptake (2.51; 95% CI, 1.02-6.16) inhibitors. The ObsFr/PredFr ratio in women were 1.12 (95% CI, 0.95-1.29) for MOFs and 0.47 (95% CI, 0-0.94) for hip fractures. Men had a ratio of 0.57 (95% CI, 0.01-1.14) for MOF, no hip fractures were observed. The ratios for the overall group were 1.29 (95% CI, 1.12-1.48) for MOFs and 0.70 (95% CI, 0.22-1.17) for hip fractures. CONCLUSIONS FRAX® accurately predicted MOFs in women population with a hip fracture incidence rate close to the national mean compared to previous studies conducted in higher incidence regions in Spain.

Abstract
Background Hip fractures in amputees pose a significant challenge for the orthopedic surgeon due to technical difficulties and there is no standardisation in their management. Their treatment is consequently left to the surgeon's ingenuity. The aim of this study is to describe the clinical characteristics and outcome of a series of hip fractures in lower limb amputees. Methods A total of 12 patients and 15 hip fractures in lower limb amputees were included. Amputations below the malleoli and prosthetic surgery due to osteoarthritis constitute the exclusion criteria. Demographic, amputation-related and fracture data as well as radiological, functional, and clinical outcomes were collected through the patients' medical records. Results Age at fracture and at amputation were different depending on the cause of amputation. Most patients (10/12) were male. Seven patients had an infracondylar amputation and five patients had a supracondylar amputation. Ten hip fractures were on the same side of the amputation, three were contralateral and one was bilateral. Pertrochanteric (6/15) and subcapital (5/15) were the main types observed. Different traction methods and surgical procedures were used. We observed no significant differences in terms of outcome regardless of the fracture, traction method, and surgical management. No complications related to surgery or during follow-up were found. Mortality at one year postoperatively was absent. Conclusion Provided an experienced orthopaedic surgeon, a pre-operative assessment, a comprehensive surgical planning, and a multidisciplinary rehabilitation strategy are present; a satisfactory outcome is to be expected.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To estimate the incidence of clinical fragility fractures in postmenopausal women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and analyze risk factors for fracture. METHODS Incidence of clinical fragility fractures in 330 postmenopausal women with RA was compared to that of a control population of 660 age-matched postmenopausal Spanish women. Clinical fractures during the previous five years were recorded. We analyzed associations with risk factors for fracture in both populations and with disease-related variables in RA patients. RESULTS Median age of RA patients was 64 years; median RA duration was eight years. Sixty-nine percent were in remission or on low activity. Eighty-five percent had received glucocorticoids (GCs); 85 %, methotrexate; and 40 %, ≥1 biologic DMARD. Fifty-four patients and 47 controls had ≥1 major osteoporotic fracture (MOF). Incidence of MOFs was 3.55 per 100 patient-year in patients and 0.72 in controls (HR: 2.6). Risk factors for MOFs in RA patients were age, previous fracture, parental hip fracture, years since menopause, BMD, erosions, disease activity and disability, and cumulative dose of GCs. Previous fracture in RA patients was a strong risk for MOFs (HR: 10.37). CONCLUSION Of every 100 postmenopausal Spanish women with RA, 3-4 have a MOF per year. This is more than double that of the general population. A previous fracture poses a high risk for a new fracture. Other classic risk factors for fracture, RA disease activity and disability, and the cumulative dose of GCs are associated with fracture development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Orthogeriatric management with clinical pathways (CP) in hip fracture (HF) has been shown to be superior to other models. We studied whether updating the CP, through prioritization of admission and surgery, improvement in the prevention and treatment of delirium, management of anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents and the use of perioperative peripheral nerve block, modifies surgical delay, stay, readmissions, mortality, suffering delirium and functional status at discharge. MATERIAL AND METHOD A retrospective observational study of unicenter cohorts of 468 patients with HF, 220 from 2016 (old VC) and 248 from 2019 (new VC). The variables are: intervention in the first 48hours, surgical delay (hours), stay (days), stay less than 15 days, delirium, functional loss at discharge (Barthel prefracture scale less Barthel scale at discharge), readmission at one month, and mortality at admission, month and year. RESULTS Median age: 87.0 [interquartile range 8.0], mostly women (76.7%). Significantly, with the new VC, there was a greater number of patients operated on in the first 48hours (27,7% vs 36,8% p=0.036), less surgical delay (72.5 [47,5-110,5] vs 64.0 [42,0-88,0] p<0.001), shorter stay (10,0 [7,0-13,0] vs 8,0 [6,0-11,0] p<0.001), greater number of discharges in 15 days (78,2% vs 91,5% p<0.001), lower delirium (54,1% vs 43,5% p=0.023). No significant changes in readmissions, functional loss at discharge, mortality at admission, 3 months or year. CONCLUSIONS Updating the VC brings benefits to the patient (less surgical delay, equal functional status at discharge with fewer days of admission) and benefits in management (lower admission) without modifying mortality.

Abstract
Introduction The yearly incidence of hip fracture is very high, which generates significant healthcare and socioeconomic burden. These fractures can occur at any age, but the vast majority occur in people over 65 years of age and predominantly in women, due to the increased risk of menopause-associated osteoporosis. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), apart from altering glucose, lipid and protein metabolisms, also causes a deregulation of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium and dysfunction in bone metabolism. The prevalence of malnutrition in patients with hip fracture is also high, due to their advanced age, and the acute injury itself provokes catabolic and inflammatory responses that result in disease-related malnutrition and sarcopenia, which aggravates the patient's clinical condition. This article describes the results of the expert consensus and the responses of the panelists on the nutritional management in routine clinical practice of patients with diabetes/hyperglycemia hospitalized (non-critically ill) with hip fracture.

Abstract
There is little information on how the COVID-19 lockdown influenced the epidemiology of major osteoporotic fractures (MOF). We analyzed the incidence and mortality of MOF in 2020 compared with 2018-2019 in Catalonia, Spain. The incidence of MOF decreased steeply, and post-fracture mortality increased during the lockdown and throughout 2020. PURPOSE To analyze the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown on major osteoporotic fracture (MOF) incidence and mortality in Catalonia in 2020 and describe how age, sex, and the prior comorbidity burden influenced the epidemiology of MOF types. METHODS In this retrospective observational study, data on age and sex in people aged ≥ 50 years with a new diagnosis of MOF in 2018, 2019, and 2020 were collected. Average daily rates (ADR) were estimated overall and for five MOF: hip, distal forearm, proximal humerus, vertebrae, and pelvis. Morbidity was assessed using Adjusted Morbidity Groups. ADR in 2020 and the previous years were compared for overall and site-specific MOF in four consecutive time periods: pre-confinement, lockdown, deconfinement, and post-confinement. Thirty-day post-fracture mortality was assessed. COVID-19-related mortality was obtained from the Catalan COVID-19 register. RESULTS From 2018 to 2020, there were 86,412 MOF. The ADR of MOF initially increased in 2020 before the pandemic, decreased steeply during lockdown, and remained lower in the rest of the year. The decrease was steeper in vertebral, pelvic and arm fractures, and lower in hip fractures. Differences were more pronounced in younger age groups and people with fewer comorbidities. Mortality increased throughout 2020, reaching a 2.5-fold increase during lockdown. Excess mortality was directly associated with COVID-19. CONCLUSIONS Mobility restrictions due to COVID-19 were associated with a reduction in MOF incidence in Catalonia, especially in younger people and in non-hip fractures. Post-fracture mortality was higher than in previous years due to the high COVID-19 mortality in the elderly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporotic hip fractures have posed a significant burden to society, and more epidemiological data is required. OBJECTIVE To compare the epidemiological differences of hip fracture patients in Spain and China. METHOD This was a retrospective comparative study. Comparisons were made in terms of morbidity, demographic and anthropometric characteristics, length of stay, cost of hospitalization, and mortality by consulting the medical histories of osteoporotic hip fractures in two hospitals. The t test was used for measurement data, and the X2 test was used for count data. The difference is statistically significant when p< 0.05. RESULTS A total of 757 patients were enrolled in this study, with 426 from Virgen Macarena University Hospital (HUVM) and 331 from Xi'an Daxing Hospital (XDH). The average age was 81.4 ± 9.26 and 76.0 ± 8.08 years; the proportion of women was 74.9% and 68.0%, respectively. The incidence of osteoporotic hip fractures in Seville residents over 50 years old was approximately 239 per 100,000 residents, compared to 158 per 100,000 residents in Xi'an. The timing of surgery in Spanish patients was significantly longer than in Chinese patients, 78.7 ± 48.2 vs. 60.7 ± 43.1 hours, p= 0.000. There were 81 deaths in Spain and 43 deaths in China during the one-year follow-up period (p= 0.026). CONCLUSIONS In terms of incidence, demographics, surgical methods, and mortality, there are significant differences between hip fracture patients in Seville, Spain and Xi'an, China.

Abstract
Fracture risk calculators may not be accurate for all ethnicity groups. The Manitoba bone density registry was used to test the Canadian CAROC tool for predicting fracture risk in Asian-Canadian women. The tool significantly over-estimated fracture risk, suggesting that it may not be ideal for Asian-Canadian patients. PURPOSE Health risk prediction tools based on largely White populations may lead to treatment inequity when applied to non-White populations where outcome rates differ. We examined the calibration of the Canadian Association of Radiologists-Osteoporosis Canada (CAROC) fracture risk prediction tool in self-identified Asian-Canadian women. METHODS Retrospective cohort study of women over age 50 using the Manitoba BMD Registry. At first BMD, the intake questionnaire collected self-identification of ethnicity and fracture risk factors. 10-year fracture risk was estimated using CAROC and categorized into low, medium, or high fracture risk. Linked administrative databases identified incident osteoporotic fractures. Observed fracture rates were compared between White and Asian-Canadians and compared to the original CAROC risk stratification. RESULTS There were 63,632 and 1703 women who self-identified as White-Canadian or Asian-Canadian, respectively, covering approximately 600,000 patient-years follow-up. There were 6588 incident fractures; a similar percentage of patients were assigned to each risk stratum at baseline by CAROC. A progressive rise in 10-year observed fracture rates occurred for each CAROC stratum in the White-Canadian population but much lower fracture rates than predicted in Asian-Canadian patients (p < 0.001). Fracture incidence rate ratios were 1.9-2.6 fold higher in White- vs Asian-Canadian patients for all strata (p < 0.001). In the CAROC moderate and high-risk categories, observed fracture rates in Asian-Canadian patients were typically lower than predicted, indicating poor model calibration. CONCLUSION In Asian-Canadian women, observed osteoporosis fracture rates are lower than predicted when using the CAROC tool. Over-estimation of fracture risk may influence shared decision-making discussions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to develop and validate a fracture risk algorithm for the automatic identification of subjects at high risk of imminent and long-term fracture risk. RESEARCH, DESIGN, AND METHODS A cohort of subjects aged 50-85, between 2007 and 2017, was extracted from the Catalan information system for the development of research in primary care database (SIDIAP). Participants were followed until the earliest of death, transfer out, fracture, or 12/31/2017. Potential risk factors were obtained based on the existing literature. Cox regression was used to model 1 and 5-year risk of hip and major fracture. The original cohort was randomly split in 80:20 for development and internal validation purposes respectively. External validation was explored in a cohort extracted from the Spanish database for pharmaco-epidemiological research in primary care. RESULTS A total of 1.76 million people were included from SIDIAP (50.7 % women with mean age of 65.4 years). Hip and major fracture incidence rates were 3.57 [95%CI 3.53 to 3.60] and 11.61 [95%CI 11.54 to 11.68] per 1000 person-years, respectively. The derived model included 19 risk factors. Internal validity showed good results on calibration and discrimination. The 1-year C-statistic for hip and major fracture were 0.851 (95%CI 0.853 to 0.864), and 0.717 (95%CI 0.742 to 0.749) respectively. The 5-year C-statistic for hip and major fracture were 0.849 (95%CI 0.847 to 0.852) and 0.724 (95%CI 0.721 to 0.727) respectively. External validation showed good performance for hip and major fracture risk prediction. CONCLUSIONS We have developed and validated a clinical prediction tool for 1- and 5-year hip and major osteoporotic fracture risks using electronic primary care data. The proposed algorithm can be automatically estimated at the population level using the available primary care records. Future work is needed on the cost-effectiveness of its use for population-based screening and targeted prevention of osteoporotic fractures.

Abstract
Background: Hip fracture in the elderly means that between a quarter and a half of patients do not regain the levels of independence and walking ability that they previously had, according to the literature, after the fracture. Material and methods: Retrospective study of 537 patients aged ≥65 years who survived at the sixth month after fracturing their hip, of which the age, sex, type of fracture, surgical risk, independence (BI), walking ability, cognitive level (PS), comorbidities, indicated drugs, complications, surgical delay, hospital stay, and surgical technique are known. Using Pearson’s χ2 test, all the variables were contrasted with respect to the limitation or not, at the sixth month of the recovery of both independence and pre-admission walking ability. Multivariate analysis provides the necessary adjustment to the previous contrast. Results: We have found that age and PS ≥ 5 at admission limit recovery from both dependency and walking ability. Surgical risk, independence (BI) upon admission, anemia, and constipation during the hospital stay limit the recovery of the BI. Worsening of walking ability during the hospital stay and the type of extra-articular fracture, which was surgically treated by osteosynthesis, limit the recovery of walking ability. Conclusions: The factors previously exposed, and perhaps the fact that patients with hip fractures are not routinely referred to rehabilitation, explain the high proportion of patients who do not recover their previous independency (36%) or walking ability (45%) to the fact of fracturing.

Abstract
In Spain, the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) was adapted using studies with a small number of patients, and there are only a few external validation studies that present limitations. In this prospective cohort study, we compared the performance of FRAX and a simple age and sex model. We used data from the ESOSVAL cohort, a cohort composed of a Mediterranean population of 11,035 women and men aged 50 years and over, followed for up to 8 years, to compare the discrimination, calibration, and reclassification of FRAX calibrated for Spain and a logistic model including only age and sex as variables. We found virtually identical AUC, 83.55% for FRAX (CI 95%: 80.46, 86.63) and 84.10% for the age and sex model (CI 95%: 80.91, 87.29), and there were similar observed-to-predicted ratios. In the reclassification analyses, patients with a hip fracture that were reclassified correctly as high risk by FRAX, compared to the age and sex model, were −2.86%, using either the 3% threshold or the observed incidence, 1.54% (95%CI: −8.44, 2.72 for the 3% threshold; 95%CI: −7.68, 1.97 for the incidence threshold). Remarkably simple and inexpensive tools that are easily transferable into electronic medical record environments may offer a comparable predictive ability to that of FRAX.

Abstract
This study was carried out to analyze the evolution of the quality indicators in the Spanish National Hip Fracture Registry, after disseminating a series of recommendations based on available clinical practice guidelines to the participating hospitals. Six of the seven proposed quality indicators showed a significant improvement. PURPOSE The Spanish National Hip Fracture Registry (RNFC) arises from the need to know the process and improve the quality of care. Our goal was to analyze the changes in the RNFC's quality indicators after an intervention based on disseminating specific recommendations among the participating hospitals, following available clinical practice guidelines. METHODS Study comparing before and after performing an intervention in hospitals participating in the RNFC. Data from the hospitals that registered cases in 2017, and that kept registering cases in 2019. Seven quality indicators were chosen, and a standard to be achieved for each indicator was proposed. The intervention consisted in the dissemination of 25 recommendations with practical measures to improve each quality indicator, based on available clinical practice guidelines, by drafting and publishing a scientific paper and sending it via email and printed cards. Fulfilment of each quality indicator was measured after carrying out the intervention. RESULTS Forty-three hospitals registered 2674 cases between January and May, 2017, and 8037 during 2019. The quality indicators chosen and the degree of compliance were (all with p<0.05): (1) surgery ≤48 h increased from 38.9 to 45.8%; (2) patients mobilised on the first postoperative day increased from 58.9 to 70.3%; (3) patients with anti-osteoporotic medication at discharge increased from 34.5 to 49.8%; (4) patients with calcium supplements at discharge increased from 48.7 to 62.8%; (5) patients with vitamin D supplements at discharge increased from 71.5 to 84.7%; (6) patients developing a grade >2 pressure ulcer during admission decreased from 6.5 to 5.0%; (7) patients able to move on their own at 1 month fell from 58.8 to 56.4%. More than 48% of hospitals improved the proposed indicators. CONCLUSION Establishing quality indicators and standards and intervening through the dissemination of specific recommendations to improve these indicators achieved an improvement in hospital performance results on a national level.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to estimate the incidence of major osteoporotic fractures in Catalonia, Spain, in 2018 and 2019 and their association with age, sex, income, climate and a set of comorbidities. METHODS Data on age, sex, smoking, alcohol abuse, comorbidities (obesity, Parkinson's disease, arthritis, chronic kidney disease, hepatic cirrhosis, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, dementia, cerebrovascular disease, hyperthyroidism, multiple myeloma and epilepsy) and income levels in people aged ≥ 50 years with a new diagnosis of major osteoporotic fractures in 2018 and 2019 were collected from the Catalan Health Surveillance System (CHSS). Climatological variables were obtained from the Catalan Meteorological Service. Incidence rates were estimated for five major osteoporotic fractures (MOF). Associations between osteoporotic fractures and age, sex, income, comorbidities and climate variables were ascertained through multilevel generalized linear model analysis (Poisson's regression). RESULTS There were 60,671 MOF. The annual incidence rate per 1000 persons/years at risk (PYAR) was 10.6 (3.1 for hip, 2.3 for distal forearm, 2.2 for vertebrae, 1.7 for pelvis and 1.5 for proximal humerus). Female sex, older age, lower income, smoking, alcohol abuse and some common comorbidities were associated with a higher incidence of MOF while obesity was a protective factor. CONCLUSIONS MOF are frequent in the adult Catalan population, especially in older women and people on low incomes. Hip fracture is the most frequent, followed by forearm and vertebral fractures. Smoking, alcohol abuse and some comorbidities were associated with an increased incidence of fracture.

Abstract
Elderly patients who underwent cataract surgery showed lower prevalence and cumulative incidence rates of hip and vertebral fragility fractures than those who did not. Therefore, cataract surgery in elderly patients may reduce the incidence of hip and vertebral fragility fractures. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence rates of hip and vertebral fragility fractures between patients who underwent cataract surgery and those who did not, and to investigate the effect of cataract surgery on the incidence of fragility fracture in elderly population using nationwide claims data. METHODS A total of 558,147 participants from the National Health Insurance Service - Senior cohort were included. The participants were set into the hip fracture group (507,651) and vertebral fracture group (507,899) depending on the type of fracture. RESULTS The number of hip fractures that occurred in the non-cataract surgery (NC) group was 36,971 (9.9%), while 8850 (6.6%) hip fractures occurred in the cataract surgery (C) group. The number of vertebral fractures that occurred in the NC group was 38,689 (10.3%), while 10,112 (7.6%) vertebral fractures occurred in the C group (all p < .001). The hazard ratios of hip and vertebral fractures were 0.58 and 0.60 for the total population that had undergone cataract surgery (all p < .001). The cumulative incidence rates of both fractures in the cataract surgery group were significantly lower than those in the non-cataract surgery group during 10 years (all p < .0001). CONCLUSION Elderly patients who underwent cataract surgery showed a lower prevalence of hip and vertebral fragility fractures than those who did not. In addition, the cumulative incidence rates of both fractures in the cataract surgery group were lower than those in the non-cataract surgery group. Therefore, cataract surgery in elderly patients may reduce the incidence of hip and vertebral fragility fractures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone fractures are a global public health issue; however, to date, no comprehensive study of their incidence and burden has been done. We aimed to measure the global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs) of fractures from 1990 to 2019. METHODS Using the framework of the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019, we compared numbers and age-standardised rates of global incidence, prevalence, and YLDs of fractures across the 21 GBD regions and 204 countries and territories, by age, sex, and year, from 1990 to 2019. We report estimates with 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs). FINDINGS Globally, in 2019, there were 178 million (95% UI 162-196) new fractures (an increase of 33·4% [30·1-37·0] since 1990), 455 million (428-484) prevalent cases of acute or long-term symptoms of a fracture (an increase of 70·1% [67·5-72·5] since 1990), and 25·8 million (17·8-35·8) YLDs (an increase of 65·3% [62·4-68·0] since 1990). The age-standardised rates of fractures in 2019 were 2296·2 incident cases (2091·1-2529·5) per 100 000 population (a decrease of 9·6% [8·1-11·1] since 1990), 5614·3 prevalent cases (5286·1-5977·5) per 100 000 population (a decrease of 6·7% [5·7-7·6] since 1990), and 319·0 YLDs (220·1-442·5) per 100 000 population (a decrease of 8·4% [7·2-9·5] since 1990). Lower leg fractures of the patella, tibia or fibula, or ankle were the most common and burdensome fracture in 2019, with an age-standardised incidence rate of 419·9 cases (345·8-512·0) per 100 000 population and an age-standardised rate of YLDs of 190·4 (125·0-276·9) per 100 000 population. In 2019, age-specific rates of fracture incidence were highest in the oldest age groups, with, for instance, 15 381·5 incident cases (11 245·3-20 651·9) per 100 000 population in those aged 95 years and older. INTERPRETATION The global age-standardised rates of incidence, prevalence, and YLDs for fractures decreased slightly from 1990 to 2019, but the absolute counts increased substantially. Older people have a particularly high risk of fractures, and more widespread injury-prevention efforts and access to screening and treatment of osteoporosis for older individuals should help to reduce the overall burden.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate whether exposure to air pollutants was associated with the risk of hip fracture. METHODS We extracted data on a 2010 cohort of the adult population (more than or equal to 30 years old) from a South Korean database. RESULTS A total of 178,147 individuals were included in the analysis, and hip fracture had occurred in 919 individuals (0.5%). In a multivariable logistic regression model, a 1 mcg/m increase in concentrations of particulate matter measuring of less than or equal to 10 μm was associated with 2% increase in hip fracture risk (odds ratio [OR]: 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01 to 1.03; P = 0.039); there were no significant associations between hip fracture risk and exposure to SO2 (P = 0.076), ozone (P = 0.220), carbon monoxide (P = 0.698), or sulfur dioxide (P = 0.114). CONCLUSIONS Particular matter air concentration may be a modifiable risk factor for hip fracture.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to determine the cognitive impairment level influence in descriptive characteristics, comorbidities, complications, and pharmacological features of older adults with hip fracture. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. METHOD Five hundred fifty-seven older adults with hip fracture were recruited and divided into cognitive impairment levels (severe/moderate, mild, no impairment). Descriptive characteristics, comorbidities, complications, and pharmacological data were collected. FINDINGS Significant differences (p < .05, R = .012-.475) between cognitive impairment levels were shown. Shorter presurgery hospital length of stay and lower depression and Parkinson comorbidities; delirium complication; and antidepressants, antiparkinsonians, and neuroleptics use were shown for the no-impairment group. With regard to the cognitive impairment groups, lower presence of cardiopathy and hypertension; higher presence of dementia; antihypertensives, antiplatelets, and antidementia medication; infection/respiratory insufficiency complications; and lower constipation complications were shown. CONCLUSION Cognitive impairment levels may determine the characteristics, comorbidities, pharmacology, and complications of older adults with hip fracture. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Cognitive impairment level may impact rehabilitation nursing practice, education, and care coordination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Osteoporotic hip fracture is a relevant pathology due to its prevalence and social and health impact. The aim of this study is to explore the predictive validity of the CUPAX questionnaire on mortality, place of residence and post-fracture functionality. MATERIALS AND METHODS Prospective observational study. Two hundred and six patients older than 65 years were included, admitted after a hip fracture. The CUPAX questionnaire score was collected before fracture and one year later, and the place of residence and survival at hospital discharge, and after 6 and 12 months. The statistical analysis was carried out with the SAS® 9.4 and Stata® 13.1 programmes. RESULTS The median age of the sample was 87.0 years (80.1% women). The in-hospital and one-year mortality rate were 5.8% and 19.1%, respectively. Most of the patients were admitted from home (71.4%), and the most frequent discharge destination was a social health centre (48.2%). The percentage of retention of previous functional level in the total sample was 50%, being higher in the younger patients. The area under the curve ROC for mortality one year later was .697 (95% CI .626-.760) and .659 (95% CI .576-.741) for the discharge destination of patients admitted from home. Evaluation of functional retention one year after the fracture, identified three groups of patients based on the pre-fracture CUPAX value. CONCLUSIONS These findings support the clinical utility of the CUPAX questionnaire as a predictive functional tool in elderly patients with hip fracture.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a predictive model of gait recovery after hip fracture. Data was obtained from a sample of 25,607 patients included in the Spanish National Hip Fracture Registry from 2017 to 2019. The primary outcome was recovery of the baseline level of ambulatory capacity. A logistic regression model was developed using 40% of the sample and the model was validated in the remaining 60% of the sample. The predictors introduced in the model were: age, prefracture gait independence, cognitive impairment, anesthetic risk, fracture type, operative delay, early postoperative mobilization, weight bearing, presence of pressure ulcers and destination at discharge. Five groups of patients or clusters were identified by their predicted probability of recovery, including the most common features of each. A probability threshold of 0.706 in the training set led to an accuracy of the model of 0.64 in the validation set. We present an acceptably accurate predictive model of gait recovery after hip fracture based on the patients’ individual characteristics. This model could aid clinicians to better target programs and interventions in this population.

Abstract
Failure of cephalomedullary fixation in geriatric trochanteric fractures is a potential complication. Attempts have been made to optimize the implant fixation (e. g. cement augmentation) and several factors (e. g. malreduction, tip apex distance) have been identified as risk factors for failure. Nevertheless, if intramedullary fixation fails, it is often associated with bone defects in mostly preexisting poor bone-stock. Accordingly, conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) is recommended by some authors as the only valid treatment option. However, in specific situations (e. g. implant associated infection) conversion to THA might be less reasonable than an attempt to re-osteosynthesis. This article reports on the successful use of a reversed contralateral LISS-DF (LISS for the distal femur, DePuy Synthes, Zuchwil, Switzerland) application after failed cephalomedullary fixation and failed re-osteosynthesis using a blade plate in a trochanteric fracture in an elderly patient with additional implant associated infection.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In Kyoto Prefecture, Japan, the number of hip fractures increased during 2013-2017 compared to 2008-2012. However, the estimated overall incidence rate increased only in femoral neck fractures in men aged ≥75 and women aged ≥85. PURPOSE The incidence rate of hip fractures in Japan has plateaued or decreased. We investigated the annual hip fracture occurrences in Kyoto Prefecture, Japan, from 2008 to 2017. METHODS Patients aged 65 years and above who sustained hip fractures between 2008 and 2017 and were treated at one of the participating 11 hospitals were included. The total number of beds in these institutions was 3701, accounting for 21.5% of the 17,242 acute-care beds in Kyoto Prefecture. The change in incidence rate was estimated utilizing the population according to the national census conducted in 2010 and 2015. RESULTS The total number of hip fractures was 10,060, with 47.5% femoral neck fractures and 52.5% trochanteric fractures. A decrease in number was seen only in trochanteric fractures in the group of 75- to 84-year-old women. The population-adjusted numbers of femoral neck fractures showed a significant increase in all age groups in men, whereas in women, there was an increase in femoral neck fractures in the ≥85 group and trochanteric fractures in the age group 65-74, and a decrease in trochanteric fractures in the age group 75-84. The estimated change in incidence rate showed an increase in femoral neck fractures in men aged ≥75 and women aged ≥85. CONCLUSION In Kyoto Prefecture, the number of hip fractures increased in the second half of the study period (2013-2017) compared to the first half (2008-2012). However, the incidence rate had not increased, except in femoral neck fractures in men aged ≥75 and women aged ≥85.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip fracture leads to an increase in mortality and deterioration in the quality of life. The increase in life expectancy results in an increase in the number of oldest old patients. AIMS To analyze the characteristics of centenarian hip fracture patients and compare them with younger hip fracture patients. METHODS Retrospective study, including 176 patients (48 centenarians, 65 nonagenarians and 63 octogenarians) undergoing surgery after hip from 2009 to 2018 and followed for 1-year survival. Qualitative variables were compared by Chi-square test and quantitative variables, by Kruskal-Wallis test. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier test and statistical differences were assessed by log-rank test. p value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Centenarians showed the lowest Charlson index (p = 0.001), cognitive impairment (p < 0.001), and daily drug intake (p = 0.034). The in-hospital, 30-day and 1-year mortality rates did not show statistical significant differences. The 1-year survival analysis showed that patients died in order of age (p = 0.045). No differences were found regarding readmissions. DISCUSSION Hip fracture incidence in centenarians is increasing. Our study states the lowest complexity for centenarians. Hip fracture mortality rates have been linked to patients' age. In-hospital mortality rate has been reduced, and for the 30-day and 1-year mortality rates, we noted that mortality follows a pattern clearly related to age. CONCLUSIONS Centenarians showed the lowest comorbidity and complexity. Readmissions before 1 year, mortality rates at discharge, 30-day and 1-year follow-up were not significantly different, but 1-year survival analysis showed that patients are dying as they are ageing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cement augmentation of internal fixation of hip fracture has reported to improve fracture stability in osteoporotic hip fractures, reducing the risk of cut-out of the sliding screw through the femoral head. The purpose of present study was to perform a systematic literature review on the effects of augmentation technique in patients with osteoporotic hip fractures. MATERIAL AND METHODS A comprehensive literature search was systematically performed to evaluate all papers published in English language included in the literature between January 2010 and July 2020, according to the PRISMA 2009 guidelines. In vivo and in vitro studies, case reports, review articles, cadaveric studies, biomechanical studies, histological studies, oncological studies, technical notes, studies dealing with radiological classifications and studies on revision surgery were excluded. RESULTS A total of 5 studies involving 301 patients were included. Patients had a mean age of 84.6 years and were followed up for a mean period of 11 months. The proximal femoral fractures were stabilized with implantation of the PFNA or Gamma nail and augmentation was performed with two different cements: polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) in 4 studies and calcium phosphate (CP) in one study. Overall, 57.5% of patients reached the same or greater preoperative mobility, and postoperative Parker Mobility Score and Harris Hip Score were acceptable. No significantly complications were observed, and no additional surgery related to the implant was required. CONCLUSION The results of this systematic review show that cement augmentation is a safe and effectiveness method of fixation to treat trochanteric fractures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the incidence of osteoporotic hip fracture in the Macarena Health Area (Seville). SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS This was a prospective observational study that collected all osteoporotic hip fractures that occurred between March 2013 and February 2014 at the Clinical Unit of Traumatology and Orthopaedics. All cases collected during the first 6 months of the study were followed for 1 year after the occurrence of the event. OUTCOME MEASURES We evaluated the incidence of osteoporotic hip fractures in the Macarena Health Area (Seville) from 1 March 2013 to 28 February 2014, and we compared the incidence with that in 2 previous studies carried out with the same methodology in 1994 and 2006. Furthermore, we calculated the morbidity and degree of disability 1 year after the fracture occurred and determined mortality and the associated factors. RESULTS The overall incidence was 228 per 100 000 individuals/year (95% CI 204.5 to 251.6), and the incidence was higher in women than in men. In women, the incidence rate decreased in all age groups over time, while in men, the incidence rate increased. The mortality rate 1 year after the episode was 27.2%. The factors associated with overall mortality were a body mass index below 25 kg/m2, renal failure and low plasma proteins. CONCLUSIONS Our results show a high incidence of osteoporotic hip fracture that is increasing in men, and in men it is associated with a higher mortality than in women. There is room to improve the modifiable factors associated with mortality and the available rehabilitation interventions to reduce the disability associated with these fractures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hip fracture is a very frequent traumatic pathology in the elderly with high mortality. Different factors have been associated with mortality after surgery (age comorbidities). There are surgical factors that are associated with mortality, but they have not been related to the different mortality rates and medical comorbidities. OBJECTIVE To analyze the surgical parameters with influence on mortality in surgery of extracapsular hip fractures in the elderly patient, as well as the influence of medical comorbidities of these patients on mortality, by means of the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI). METHOD Retrospective review of 187 patients operated on in 2015. Data were collected on age and sex, laterality and type of fracture; surgical delay, surgical time, type of osteosynthesis material, mean stay. The presence of comorbidities was determined using the JRC. RESULTS Mean age was 85 years. Regarding the Charlson comorbidity index in brief, 67.4% of patients had a score between 0 and 1, 23.5% of 2, and 9.1% >2. Mortality at one month and one year after surgery was 5.3% and 14.4% respectively. Forty-three complications were recorded, of which 31 were medical complications. Of the 27 patients who died in the first year, 14 (51.8%) suffered complications, 48.2% of which were medical complications. DISCUSSION Multivariate analysis showed significant differences with respect to age, medical complications and Charlson index abbreviated to 2 with respect to mortality. There is no association between delay and surgical time with increased mortality. CONCLUSIONS No association was demonstrated between the surgical parameters studied (surgical delay and time, fracture pattern and stability, reduction criteria, surgical complications) and increased short and long-term mortality. Patients with older age, comorbidities measured with abbreviated CCI and those suffering medical complications have a higher risk of mortality at the month and year of surgery.

Abstract
A potential and feared complication of proximal femur nails with cephalomedullary fixation is migration of the cephalomedullary screw or blade (cut-out or cut-through). In patients not suitable (e.g. low demand, comorbidities) for conversion to total hip arthroplasty blade exchange with cement augmentation may be an option. This article describes the first successful clinical use of a salvage procedure of a previously published technique, which allows the surgeon to avoid intraarticular cement leakage by using a standard cement plug to close the defect in the femoral head.

Abstract
Osteoporotic hip fracture (OHF) is an increasingly frequent age-related pathology, which results in high rates of functional loss and mortality within the first year after surgery. This study assessed whether preoperative levels of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and troponin I were related to early occurrence (30d) of major adverse cardio-vascular events (MACE) after OHF repair surgery. During a 6-month period, perioperative clinical and analytical data from consecutive patients, without known history of cardiovascular disease and undergoing surgery for OHF repair at a single centre, were prospectively collected. MACE was defined as acute myocardial ischaemia or infarction, acute heart failure or cardiovascular death. amongst the 140 patients included, 23 (16.4%) developed postoperative MACE (MACE group) and 117 did not (Control group). Compared to those from control group, patients from MACE group were older, had poorer physical status (ASA III-IV), received preoperative red blood cell transfusion (RBCT) more frequently, presented with lower haemoglobin concentrations and higher NT-proBNP, creatinine and troponin I concentrations. Overall, RBCT requirements and 30d mortality rate were also higher in MACE group. However, in multivariate analysis, only preoperative RBCT, creatinine >1 mg/dL and NT-proBNP >450 pg/mL remained as independent preoperative risks factors for postoperative MACE, while 95% confidence intervals of odds ratios were wide. Though our findings require confirmation in a larger multicentre cohort, identifying risk factors for early postoperative MACE after OHF repair surgery, might facilitate assessing patients' risk prior to and following surgery, and targeting them the appropriate preventive and/or therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Our objective was to analyze the incidence and trend of hip fracture in Spain and its distribution by Autonomous Community (AC). In Spain, the age-adjusted incidence rate of hip fracture is decreasing. There is great variability in the incidence and tendency of hip fracture among the different ACs. Genetic, demographic, and climatic factors and cohort effect factors of the civil war explain 96% of this variability. INTRODUCTION In Spain, there is great variability between the different Autonomous Communities (ACs) in the incidence of hip fracture. The objectives of our study are (1) to estimate the incidence rate and trend of hospital admissions for hip fracture in Spain and by ACs and (2) to analyze risk factors/markers that could explain the variability in the incidence and trend between different ACs. METHOD This work includes 2 studies (TREND-HIP and VAR-HIP). TREND-HIP: retrospective, national, observational study based on the administrative database of the National Health System that includes a Minimum Basic Data Set (MBDS) of hospital admissions. VAR-HIP: ecological study based on the analysis of the results obtained in TREND-HIP study, with different risk factors/markers obtained from different sources. RESULTS In the 17 years included in the analysis, there were 744,848 patients diagnosed with hip fracture. The global age-adjusted rate of hip fracture at the national level was 315.38/100,000 person*year (95% CI 312.36-317.45); by AC, the rate varied from 213.97 in the Canary Islands to 363.13 in the Valencia and Cataluña communities. We observe an east-west gradient in Spain. The trend for both sexes was - 0.67% (95% CI 0.9990-0.9957) (p < 0.001). In the analysis of risk factors/markers that explain this distribution, we found significant correlations with genetic factors, demographics, climatic factors and the time a region was on the Republican side of the civil war. The linear regression model that includes the factors that show significant correlation explains 96% of the variability observed. CONCLUSION In Spain, the age-adjusted incidence rate for hip fracture is decreasing. There is a great variability in the incidence and tendency of hip fracture among the different ACs. Genetic, demographic, climatic factors and the cohort effect of the civil war explain 96% of this variability.

Abstract
Introduction: This study investigates the management of hip fractures in a German maximum care
hospital and compares these data to evidence-based standard and practice in 180
hospitals participating in the UK National Hip Fracture Database (NHFD) and 16 hospitals
participating in the Irish Hip Fracture Database (IHFD). This is the first study
directly comparing the management of hip fractures between 3 separate health-care
systems within Europe. Methods: Electronic medical data were collected retrospectively describing the care pathway of
elderly patients with a hip fracture admitted to a large trauma unit in the south of
Germany “University Hospital Freiburg” (UHF). The audit evaluated demographics,
postoperative outcome, and the adherence to the 6 “Blue Book” standards of care. These
data were directly compared with the data from the UK NHFD and the IHFD acquired from
180 and 16 hospitals, respectively. Results: At 36 hours, 95.8% of patients had received surgery in UHF, compared to 71.5% in the
NHFD and 58% of patients in the IHFD. The rate of in-hospital mortality was 4.7%
compared to 7.1% in the NHFD and 5% in the IHFD. The mean average acute length of stay
was 13.4 days compared to 16.4 days in the NHFD and 20 days in the IHFD. Reoperation
rates are 3.3% compared to 1% in the NHFD and 1.1% in the IHFD; 50.5% of patients were
discharged on bone protection medication, compared to 47% in the IHFD and 79.3% in the
UK NHFD. Discussion: Despite uniformly acknowledged evidence-based treatment guidelines, the management of
hip fractures remains heterogeneous within Europe. Conclusion: These data show that different areas of the hip fracture care pathway in Germany,
England, and Ireland, respectively, show room for improvement in light of the growing
socioeconomic burden these countries are expected to face.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Hip fracture registries have helped improve quality of care and reduce variability, and several audits exist worldwide. The results of the Spanish National Hip Fracture Registry are presented and compared with 13 other national registries, highlighting similarities and differences to define areas of improvement, particularly surgical delay and early mobilization. INTRODUCTION Hip fracture audits have been useful for monitoring current practice and defining areas in need of improvement. Most established registries are from Northern Europe. We present the results from the first annual report of the Spanish Hip Fracture Registry (RNFC) and compare them with other publically available audit reports. METHOD Comparison of the results from Spain with the most recent reports from another ten established hip fracture registries highlights the differences in audit characteristics, casemix, management, and outcomes. RESULTS Of the patients treated in 54 hospitals, 7.208 were included in the registry between January and October 2017. Compared with other registries, the RNFC included patients ≥ 75 years old; in general, they were older, more likely to be female, had a worse prefracture ambulation status, and were more likely to have extracapsular fractures. A larger proportion was treated with intramedullary nails than in other countries, and spinal anesthesia was most commonly used. With a mean of 75.7 h, Spain had by far the longest surgical delay, and the lowest proportion of patients mobilized on the first postoperative day (58.5%). Consequently, development of pressure ulcers was high, but length of stay, mortality, and discharge to home remained in the range of other audits. CONCLUSIONS National hip fracture registries have proved effective in changing clinical practice and our understanding of patients with this condition. Such registries tend to be based on an internationally recognized common dataset which would make comparisons between national registries possible, but variations such as age inclusion criteria and follow-up are becoming evident across the world. This variation should be avoided if we are to maximize the comparability of registry results and help different countries learn from each other's practice. The results reported in the Spanish RNFC, compared with those of other countries, highlight the differences between countries and detect areas of improvement, particularly surgical delay and early mobilization.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to survey the incidence of osteoporotic fragility fractures, which include vertebral, hip, distal radius, and proximal humerus fractures, in patients ≥ 50 years of age, from 2004 to 2015, in Sado City, Japan. We examined temporal changes in the incidence of these fractures from 2010 through 2015. The incidence of vertebral (p < 0.001) and radius fractures (p = 0.001) was lower in 2015 than in 2010, with only the incidence of hip fracture (p = 0.013) being lower in 2015 than in 2004. With regard to age-specific incidences, there was a sharp increase in vertebral and hip fractures among the segment of the population 70-89 years old, with no remarkable change in the incidence of radial and humeral fractures. Pre-existing vertebral fractures were identified in 69.6% of patients with a hip fracture, 35.6% of patients with a distal radius fracture, and 55% of patients with a humeral fracture. Among patients with pre-existing vertebral fractures, 42.5% had a single fracture, whereas 57.5% had 2 or more fractures. The proportion of patients on anti-osteoporotic agents before the occurrence of fractures increased to 14.5% in 2015, compared to 4% in 2004 and 7.6% in 2010. We speculate that the increase in the use of anti-osteoporotic agents is the main reason for the declining incidence of fractures. Therefore, considering the sharp increase in hip and vertebral fractures among individuals in their mid-1970s and older, judicious use of anti-osteoporotic agents among these individuals could be useful for lowering the occurrence of these fractures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the quality of life related to health, functional capacity and mood to hip fracture and one month after surgery. METHOD Prospective and descriptive study developed from January 2015 to January 2016 in Campo Arañuelo Hospital (Navalmoral de la Mata, Cáceres, Spain). Sociodemographic variables, functional capacity (Barthel Index), dependence (Lawton and Brody Scale), quality of life related to health (Questionnaire Euroqol-5D) and on mood (Yesavage geriatric depression scale GDS15) were collected, prior to the hip fracture and one month after the intervention. RESULTS Significant decrease in functional capacity (Barthel), the mean score was 86.66 before the fracture, compared to 58.72 at the month after surgery (P<.001). Regarding the Lawton and Brody Scale, the mean was 4.95 and at 2.24months (P<.001). The mean scores on health related quality of life, baseline and post-intervention in the analog visual scale of the EQ-5D questionnaire were 72.95 vs 59.45 respectively (P=.004). Although before the fracture, 94.10% had no alteration in mood, one month after the intervention there was a possible depression of 20.50% and an established depression of 11%. CONCLUSIONS The fracture of the head affects the functionality of the elderly, causing dependence for the basic and instrumental activities of daily life. It also affects the quality of life related to health and this decreases significantly in the month after surgery. Depressive mood is inversely related to perceived perceived quality of life.

Abstract
Purpose: To translate the Cumulated Ambulation Score into Spanish, and to examine its inter-rater reliability, agreement and internal consistency.Materials and Methods: Two occupational therapists independently used the Spanish version of the Cumulated Ambulation Score (three activities scored from 0-2 points) to assess 60 consecutive patients with hip fracture within the first post-surgery week at a traumatology service of a public hospital. We used linear weighted kappa (κ) statistics to determine inter-rater reliability, percent agreement to assess measurement error, Cronbach's α coefficient to establish the internal consistency, and the McNemar-Bowker test to evaluate for systematic between-rater differences.Results: The κ was ≥ 0.83 for the three individual activities and the total score, the percent agreement was ≥ 0.87, and Cronbach's α was 0.89 with no observed systematic between-rater difference.Conclusions: This study provides evidence for almost perfect inter-rater reliability, excellent internal consistency, and high percent agreement of the Spanish version of the Cumulated Ambulation Score. Due to the strong psychometric properties, and its ease of use, we suggest it be used in Spanish speaking countries to assess early basic mobility status of patients with hip fracture until independence is reached.Implications for rehabilitationThe Spanish version of the Cumulated Ambulation Score is a reliable outcome measure to assess basic mobility of patients with hip fracture.We suggest the Spanish version of the Cumulated Ambulation Score be used in Spanish speaking settings to indicate small changes in basic mobility of patients with hip fracture until an independent level is reached.The Spanish version of the Cumulated Ambulation Score can be used with a high reliability by experienced and inexperienced occupational therapists, corresponding to the already established reliability when used by physicians and physiotherapists.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a major health problem in terms of fracture probability and disability. The aim of this ecological study is to identify the temporal trends in osteoporosis mortality in Spain from 1999 to 2015. Data on the Spanish population and number of deaths due to osteoporosis were obtained from the Spanish National Institute for Statistics. Age-adjusted mortality rates were estimated. Join point regression was used to identify the years when changes in mortality s and annual percentage change in mortality rates took place. Women presented a greater mortality rate decrease (p < 0.001), though this mortality difference by sex was reduced by half at the end of the period. The higher the age, the faster the mortality rate declined in women, while no clear pattern could be identified in men. In women, significant changes in trends were identified in three age groups (50-54, 60-64 and 80-84 years old). A sustained decrease in osteoporosis-associated mortality was found in women aged 75-79 and ≥85 years and men aged 60-64. In conclusion, mortality caused by osteoporosis in Spain is decreasing faster in the older age ranges especially in women.

Abstract
The Barthel index evolution was analyzed in a sample of older people with osteoporotic hip fracture in order to verify the influence of comorbidities and cognitive impairment on the physical recovery of those patients, during the first year following the fracture. A prospective observational study was carried out between October 1, 2012 and March 31, 2013. A sample of 247 individuals was initially selected. After a primary revision, 39 participants were excluded (clearly not meeting inclusion criteria, lack of data, or not agree to participate in the study), and finally a total of 208 participants were included in the analysis, 166 women, with an average age of 84.59 years, and 42 men, with an average age of 82.05. 54.80% of all cases were older than 85 years. The mean Barthel index value prior to fracture was 76.63, decreasing to 64.91 at one-year follow-up. Only 22.12% of patients achieved a full recovery for activities of daily living. A statistical analysis was performed by comparing Barthel index recovery depending on the values of Charlson and Pfeiffer indexes, respectively. The mean differences in Barthel index drop between the one-year follow-up and the hospital admission values were found statistical significant (p<0.01). These findings indicate that Charlson and Pfeiffer indexes clearly influence the Barthel index recovery. Low values of Charlson and Pfeiffer indexes resulted in better Barthel index recovery. In conclusion, the Barthel index is a good tool to evaluate the physical recovery after osteoporotic hip fracture.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether there is a seasonal relationship in the incidence and in-hospital mortality of patients with hip fracture. PATIENTS AND METHODS Longitudinal descriptive study of cases that included 1104 patients older than 64years admitted for fracture of the proximal extremity of the femur in the Hospital HCU Virgen de la Victoria during a period of 30months The epidemiological characteristics of the patients were recorded and the monthly incidence of fractures was related with the month of the year in which it occurred, as well as with the meteorological conditions, temperature and rainfall. RESULTS The study population comprised a total of 1104 patients, with a greater proportion of women (75.1%). The average age was 82.3years. A tendency towards an increased incidence of these fractures was found. The in-hospital annual mortality rate was 2.97%, higher for men and in the age group over 84years. Seasonality was found in terms of the incidence of fractures above the average in the month of October and below this in the month of February. On the other hand, mortality was lower than the average in the month of March and higher in August. In both, a low correlation with temperature and rainfall was found. CONCLUSIONS The seasonal distribution of hip fractures presented an increase over the average in the month of October and a decrease in February. Mortality increased over the average in the month of August and decreased in March.

Abstract
Age is one of the principal risk factors for development of frailty fractures. Age pyramids show a population that is becoming increasingly more elderly, with an increasing incidence of fractures, and the forecasts for the future are truly alarming. Adequate handling of these patients who are especially at risk, at both the preventive and care levels, with a well-defined orthogeriatric model is necessary to respond to this clinical challenge. The objective of this review is to analyze the efficacy of the different strategies for the handling of geriatric patients with fracture risk.

Abstract
Hip fracture and dementia rates increase with age, and both groups of patients suffer increased morbidity and mortality and functional impairment. The management of these patients is a challenge for the orthogeriatric and rehabilitation team process, as despite the evidence on the benefit, the results analysed are still worse than in patients without cognitive impairment. For this reason, and due to the limitation in health resources, many of them have problems in accessibility to them, or are limited to a less intense rehabilitation. There are insufficient studies on the best rehabilitation interventions in this group of patients, but it is suggested: 1) to use a multidisciplinary rehabilitation model adapted to the patient with dementia, and 2) to redefine results of the rehabilitation of these patients not only in terms of functional improvement, without highlighting other concepts, such as quality of life, decrease in complications or improved social support.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The increased mortality after hip fracture (HF) is caused by multiple factors, and large samples are needed to assess the weight of each factor. To date, few studies have investigated these factors through a total cohort approach, and the complexity of underlying medical conditions has not been considered. OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of demographic and clinical characteristics on increased mortality risk in elderly patients with hip fracture (HF). DESIGN Retrospective, total cohort study collecting 4-year data. SETTING All hospitals and primary care units owned by, or associated with, Catalonia's local health department (CatSalut) (north-east Spain). PARTICIPANTS All patients aged ≥65 years, admitted to Catalan hospitals from CatSalut because of a HF between 1st January 2012 and 31st December 2015. EXPOSURE Hip fracture. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The main outcome was survival. Measures regarding demographic and clinical characteristics at the moment of hospital admission included age, sex, osteoporosis treatment, previous fractures, type of intervention, nutritional status, and comorbidities. Patients were stratified using the Adjusted Morbidity Groups (GMA) risk assessment tool. RESULTS Of the 30,552 patients included in the study sample, 10,439 (34%) died during follow-up, 6821 (22%) within the first year after hospital admission. Mean (SD) age was 84 (7) years; 75% were female. Baseline factors with greater influence on survival were age (HRs 1.44 [95% CI 1.22-1.70], 2.38 [2.03-2.79], and 4.38 [3.73-5.15] for age groups 70-79, 80-89, and >89, respectively), underweight (HR 1.65 [1.36-2.01]), lack of surgical intervention (HR 2.64 [2.47-2.83]), and very high risk stratum of GMA risk (HR 1.58 [1.45-1.73]). Vitamin D/calcium supplementation and osteoporosis treatment showed a significant but moderate influence on mortality (HRs 0.84 (0.79-0.88) and 0.92 [0.85-0.99], respectively). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In elderly patients with HF, age and health status factors at hospital admission have the greatest impact on mortality risk after hospital admission. Our findings encourage a comprehensive intervention aimed at improving underlying medical conditions of HF patients.
