Abstract The association between obesity and fracture is controversial. We investigated the relationship body mass index (BMI) at different skeletal sites in women aged ≥50 years using data from Sistema d' Informació per al Desenvolupament de la Investigació en Atenció Primària (SIDIAP) database. SIDIAP contains computerized medical records of >3400 general practitioners Catalonia (northeastern Spain), with information on a representative 80% population (>5 million people). In...
Abstract Low body mass index (BMI) is a recognized risk factor for fragility fracture, whereas obesity widely believed to be protective. As part of clinical audit guidance from the National Institute Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), we have documented prevalence morbid in postmenopausal women younger than 75 years age presenting our Fracture Liaison Service (FLS). Between January 2006 December 2007, 1005 aged less with low-trauma fracture were seen FLS. Of these women, 805 (80%)...
ABSTRACT A site-dependent association between obesity and fracture has been reported in postmenopausal women. In this study we investigated the relationship body mass index (BMI) at different skeletal sites older men (≥65 years). We carried out a population-based cohort using data from Sistema d‘Informació per al Desenvolupament de l‘Investigació en Atenció Primària (SIDIAPQ) database. SIDIAPQ contains primary care hospital admission computerized medical records of >1300 general...
Until recently obesity was believed to be protective against fractures. However, a report from Fracture Liaison Clinic in the UK (2010) reported surprisingly high proportion of obese postmenopausal women attending clinic with fractures, and GLOW study (2011), similar prevalence incidence fractures non-obese observed. Subsequently, other studies have demonstrated importance epidemiology Obese are at increased risk fracture ankle, leg, humerus, vertebral column lower wrist, hip pelvis when...
A high prevalence of obesity has recently been reported in postmenopausal women with low trauma fracture, suggesting that higher bone mineral density (BMD) obese individuals may not be protective against fracture. The aim this study was to compare BMD and other risk factors for nonvertebral fracture 1377 women. Characteristics without incident were investigated among the prospective cohort Study Osteoporotic Fractures. Fractures is a multicenter 9704 (>99% Caucasian) aged 65 yr over who...
ABSTRACT Fractures in obese older individuals contribute significantly to the overall burden on primary health care, but data their impact mortality are lacking. We studied association between obesity and following hip nonhip clinical fractures a retrospective, population-based cohort study. The Sistema d'Informació pel Desenvolupament de la Investigació en Atenció Primària (SIDIAPQ) database contains care computerized medical records of representative sample >2.1 million people (35%...
Abstract Recent studies indicate that obesity is not protective against fracture in postmenopausal women and increases the risk of at some sites. Risk factors for obese may differ from those nonobese. We aimed to compare ability FRAX with without bone mineral density (BMD) predict fractures nonobese older who were participants Study Osteoporotic Fractures. Data clinical femoral neck BMD available 6049 women, whom 18.5% obese. Hip fractures, major osteoporotic any ascertained during a mean...
Although fractures had high mortality and morbidity, many studies proved that fracture risk might be decreased by pharmacological therapy, although a low treatment adherence rate is observed. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. A cross-sectional carried out from March August 2013 at the primary care setting. Postmenopausal women were recruited. standardized questionnaire applied. Women who using least one following drugs moment...
Hip fractures have been associated with increased mortality in the elderly. Several risk factors such as time between insult and surgical repair hip fracture mortality. Nevertheless, of delayed remains controversial. Few studies examined this issue Brazil. The aim study was to for death one year after in-hospital stay at a tertiary hospital South Brazil.A prospective cohort carried out from April 2005 2011 university Santa Maria, Subjects admitted who were 65 years age or older followed...
Background In recent years, there has been an increase in the concern for mental health of resident physicians. The COVID-19 pandemic may have further contributed negatively to this population. Objectives We aimed evaluate probability Burnout Syndrome physicians involved care services during Pandemic and possible factors associated with it. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted two tertiary hospitals Belo Horizonte, Brazil, between 5th June 14th September 2022. survey including...
The prevalence of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases is increased in postmenopausal women, which contributes to the burden illnesses this period life. Yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) a native bush from Southern South America. Its leaves are rich phenolic components, may have antioxidant, vasodilating, hypocholesterolemic, hypoglycemic proprieties. This post hoc analysis case-control study nested Obesity Bone Fracture Cohort evaluated consumption yerba hypertension, dyslipidemia, coronary...
A past history of low trauma fracture is a strong risk factor for future fractures in postmenopausal women and national guidance recommends treatment the majority such womenTo establish prevalence bone protective therapy use with Design andClinical audit 1641 presenting to Fracture Liaison Service at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge between January 2006 December 2007.A total 526 (31%) had fracture, defined as after age 45 years. The wrist was most common site previous followed by hip, hand...
