Background: Drugs with anticholinergic properties are frequently prescribed to patients with cognitive impairment. The cholinergic system plays an important role in the learning process, memory, but also in the regulation of emotions. The aim of this research is to investigate a possible correlation between the use of anticholinergic drugs and the risk of developing more severe behavioral and psychological symptoms (BPSD).

Epidemiology and risk factors for contralateral proximal femur fracture: a single center retrospective cohort study on 1022 patients.

Unlabelled: Summary.

Background And Aim Of The Work: Given the high impact of proximal femur fractures (PFFs) on elderly patients and healthcare systems, the burden of contralateral PFFs might be overlooked. Aim of the study is to analyze the epidemiology and risk factors of contralateral proximal femur fractures.
