The Oklahoma City Thunder, already without center Isaiah Hartenstein at center due to a hand injury and big man Jaylin Williams with a hamstring strain, now have lost their other star center for at least two months and likely longer than that. Chet Holmgren suffered a right...
Overall, independent risk factors for hip fracture in women can be broadly classified into 7 main groups: bone-related factors, fall-related factors, prior fracture; and anthropometric and lifestyle factors, comorbidity, and genetic background. However, those factors may be interrelated and may ...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate hip fracture risk in relation to fall direction, and to elucidate factors that influence the impact force in falls on the hip. Eight healthy volunteers performed deliberate falls in three directions (lateral, posterolateral and posterior) on a force platfor...
Increased risk of hip fracture from a fall was associated with impacting on the hip or side of the leg and potential energy associated with the fall. Quetelet, or body mass index, was inversely related to fracture risk. The adjusted odds ratio of hip fracture for a fall involving impact on...
It has been shown that the incidence of hip fracture in the elderly may be influenced by the type of floor covering commonly used in homes for the elderly. This study describes the development of a method for modelling a fall during a hip fracture event, to examine the influence of differen...
Hip fractures are definitely painful and debilitating. I must use a walker but that still throws your balance off and makes you venerable for more falls even with the walker (it has happened twice) and requires 911. With the first fall the fracture was OK but the second fall jarred it. ...
Bower and colleagues studied the effects of persistent fear on recovery at 4 and 12 weeks after a fall that resulted in a hip fracture. The data were presented here at the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry (AAGP) 2016 Annual Meeting and have been submitted for publication. ...
Background: Hip fracture creates a worldwide morbidity, mortality and economic burden. After surgery, many patients experience long-term disability or die as a consequence of the fracture. A fracture is a major risk factor for a subsequent fracture, which may occur within a short interval. Metho...
