Deep Learning Approach for Automatic Wrist Fracture Detection Using Ultrasound Bone Probability Maps
Wrist fractures are currently examined using radiograms, resulting in undesirable radiation exposure in children. Ultrasound is fast, safe, and...

Adjusting conventional FRAX estimates of fracture probability according to the number of prior fractures
SummaryThe risk of a recurrent fragility fracture is high following a first fracture and higher still with more than one prior fracture. This study...
-
Adjusting conventional FRAX estimates of fracture probability according to the number of prior falls in the preceding year
SummaryA greater propensity to falling is associated with higher fracture risk. This study provides adjustments to FRAX-based fracture probabilities...

FREM predicts 10-year incident fracture risk independent of FRAX® probability: a registry-based cohort study
SummaryThe Danish Fracture Risk Evaluation Model (FREM) was found to predict fracture risk independent of 10-year fracture probability derived with...

Menopausal hormone therapy reduces the risk of fracture regardless of falls risk or baseline FRAX probability—results from the Women’s Health Initiative hormone therapy trials
SummaryIn a combined analysis of 25,389 postmenopausal women aged 50–79 years, enrolled in the two Women’s Health Initiative hormone therapy trials,...

A novel fracture liaison service using digital health: impact on mortality in hospitalized elderly osteoporotic fracture patients
SummaryWe examined the performance of an intelligent fracture liaison service (FLS) assisted by digital health (DH) to reduce all-cause mortality...

Previous fracture and subsequent fracture risk: a meta-analysis to update FRAX
SummaryA large international meta-analysis using primary data from 64 cohorts has quantified the increased risk of fracture associated with a...

Traumatic thoracic spine fracture: can we predict when MRI would modify the fracture classification or decision-making compared to CT alone?
PurposeTo determine the impact of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on fracture classification for thoracic spine fractures (TSFs) compared to...

Secondary osteoporosis prevention: three-year outcomes from a Fracture Liaison Service in elderly hip fracture patients
BackgroundHip fractures are the most serious fragility fractures due to their associated disability, higher hospitalization costs and high mortality...

Risk of osteoporotic fracture and refracture: the importance of index fracture site
SummaryThe current study shows that patients aged 50 or more who have sustained an osteoporotic fracture have a significant risk of suffering a new...

The associations between uric acid with BMDs and risk of the 10-year probability of fractures in Chinese patients with T2DM stratified by age and gender
PurposeAccumulating evidence suggests that serum uric acid (SUA) plays a beneficial role in bone health in the general population through antioxidant...

The impact of a Fracture Liaison Service after 3 years on secondary fracture prevention and mortality in a Portuguese tertiary center
SummaryDespite the establishment of Fracture Liaison Services (FLS) worldwide, no study has evaluated their impact on the Portuguese population. Our...

Long non-coding RNA MIAT serves as a biomarker of fragility fracture and promotes fracture healing
BackgroundFragility fracture is common in the elderly. Osteoblast differentiation is essential for bone healing and regeneration. Expression pattern...

Improved fracture risk prediction by adding VFA-identified vertebral fracture data to BMD by DXA and clinical risk factors used in FRAX
SummaryVertebral fracture (VF) is a strong predictor of subsequent fracture. In this study of older women, VF, identified by dual-energy X-ray...

Fracture risk prediction in postmenopausal women from GO Study: the comparison between FRAX, Garvan, and POL-RISK algorithms
SummaryIn the longitudinal, retrospective study, the ability of the FRAX, Garvan, and POL-RISK algorithms to predict osteoporotic fractures was...

Association of two geriatric treatment systems with anti-osteoporotic drug treatment and second hip fracture in patients with an index hip fracture: retrospective cohort study
BackgroundIn Germany, geriatricians deliver acute geriatric care during acute hospital stay and post-acute rehabilitation after transfer to a...

Larger lateral hinges increase the probability of Takeuchi type II and III fractures in high tibial osteotomy
PurposeLateral hinge fractures are the main complications in the high tibial osteotomy to treat varus deformities. The aim of present study is to...
