Purpose: Osteoporotic fractures have economic consequences and can alter the quality of life. Nevertheless, the direct impact on work has been infrequently reported. Our objective was to estimate the proportion of working patients resuming paid employment within the 3 months following an osteoporotic fracture, and to assess the consequences on their productivity and quality of life.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate the link between blood pressure levels and antihypertensive medications at hospital admission and their effect on 1-year mortality in patients with critical limb ischemia undergoing revascularization.
  • 315 patients were analyzed retrospectively, with a mean age of 77.9 years; 25.4% of these patients died within a year.
  • Results indicated that higher systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean blood pressure (MBP), and pulse pressure (PP) were associated with lower mortality rates, suggesting that managing blood pressure could improve outcomes for these patients.*

Objective: In patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI), blood pressure (BP) impact on mortality is unknown. We analyzed the predictive value of SBP, DBP and pulse pressure (PP) at hospital admission on 3-month mortality in patients with CLI undergoing revascularization procedure.

Methods: From November 2013 to December 2018, 297 consecutive patients were retrospectively included.
