1. 6. Defining the clinical usefulness of vertebral fracture assessment

   Författare :Lisa Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Vertebral fracture; vertebral fracture assessment; osteoporosis; DXA; HRpQCT; bone microindentation; mild vertebral fracture; physical function; fracture risk; incident fracture; older women;

   Sammanfattning : Objective: Vertebral fractures (VFs) are the most common osteoporotic fracture and among the strongest predictors for future fracture. VFs can be identified by vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) from lateral spine imaging (LSI) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). LÄS MER

3. 7. Clinical results after hip fracture - with special focus on hip arthroplasty

   Författare :Susanne Hansson; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Nyckelord :hip fracture; femoral neck fracture; arthroplasty; complications; adverse events; patient-reported outcome measures PROM; rehabilitation;

   Sammanfattning : Hip fractures are of major concern worldwide, but even if literature isabundant, there are still gaps to fill. The global outcome needs to be betterunderstood, including patient-reported outcome. Many studies focus onimproving surgical outcome, with less focus on medical complications. LÄS MER

4. 8. Studies on the complications and prediction of mortality after hip fracture surgery

   Författare :Carl Mellner; Sebastian Mukka; Per Morberg; Olof Sköldenberg; Björn Knutsson; Lasse Lapidus; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hip fracture; femoral neck fracture; treatment; total hip arthroplasty; hemiarthroplasty; internal fixation; outcome; infection; periprosthetic joint infection; mortality;

   Sammanfattning : An elderly patient who sustains a hip fracture has increased morbidity and mortality. Scandinavia presents the highest incidence annually of hip fractures worldwide. Femoral neck fracture (FNF) of the hip accounts for 50% of all hip fractures in geriatric patients. LÄS MER

5. 9. Patients with hip fracture : A decade of morbidity and surgery

   Författare :Noelle Probert; Karin Blomberg; Åsa Andersson; Katarina Wilhelmsson; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Hip fracture is a devastating condition causing excess mortality in older people. Over recent time, incidence has declined while mortality remains unchanged, suggesting changes in morbidity. LÄS MER
