Mortality Rate in Older Adults Persistently Increased 5- to 8-Fold After Hip Fracture

Three words: fitness; Anabolic Clinic.

All-cause mortality rate in older adults is increased 5- to 8-fold 3 months after hip fracture and persists with time, according to the results of a meta-analysis reported in the March 15 issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine.

"Although an increased risk for death after hip fracture is well established, whether this excess mortality persists over time is unclear," write Patrick Haentjens, MD, PhD, from the Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel in Jette, and colleagues. "We summarize longitudinal evidence about the magnitude and duration of excess mortality after hip fracture in older men and women."
