BACKGROUND It is well established that males have lower fracture risk in comparison with females, which suggests a higher bone resistance in men. The aim of our study was to find out if in older patients with hip fragility fractures, gender has also an impact on trabecular bone material behaviour, specifically to determine whether trabecular mechanical properties under compressive loading diffe...

BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is one of the commonest bone diseases in which bone fragility is increased. Over 300,000 patients present to hospitals in the UK with fragility fractures each year, with medical and social care costs - most of which relate to hip fracture care - at around £2 billion. The number of these fractures rises by 2% a year. The 30 days mortality is 10% and 30% at 1 year. The pur...

BACKGROUND Low bone mineral density in HIV-infected patients is an increasingly recognized clinical problem. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence, prevalence, and risk factors for development of low trauma or fragility fractures in an HIV-infected population. METHODS A 1:2 matched case-control study was performed of HIV-infected patients attending the Alfred Hospital between 1...

BACKGROUND A care gap exists between the health care needs of older persons with fragility fractures and the therapeutic answers they receive. The Fracture Prevention Service (FPS), a tailored in-hospital model of care, may effectively bridge the osteoporosis care gap for hip-fractured older persons. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the FPS in targeting persons at high ...

Abstract Fragility fractures, a form of stress fracture brought on by physiological weak bones, are not common. It might be challenging to diagnose fragility since standard radiograph shows signs repair rather than the actual fracture. We present case 32-year-old woman who has been complaining both leg pain for last 4 months and unable stand 1 week. Further analysis revealed that her vitamin D ...

Kummel disease is the eponym for avascular necrosis of the vertebral body after a vertebral compression fracture. As our population ages, the prevalence of osteoporosis, its most common fragility fracture (vertebral compression fracture), and Kummel disease will increase. The purpose of this article is to report a prototypical case with complete radiographic and histologic workup and to provide...
