The patient was a 34-year-old male recreational marathon runner referred to a physical therapist with a chief complaint of worsening right lateral hip pain of 3 months duration that was insidious in nature. Following a physical examination, the physical therapist discussed his suspicions with the referring physician. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed findings consistent with a stress fracture at the inferomedial right femoral neck, a mild cam-type deformity of the right femoral neck, and a mild degree of heterogeneity of the right superior anterior labrum, representing a possible tear.

Contradictory links between lipid levels and bone health: atherogenic index of plasma and bone microarchitecture.
J Orthop Surg Res
January 2025
Department of Spine, Wangjing Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing, 100000, China.
Purpose: Lipids increase osteoporosis and fracture risk, yet research on Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP), bone mineral density declines (BMD), and trabecular bone score (TBS) is limited. This study examined the relationships between AIP, TBS, and BMD in American adults using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data, including the effect of obesity.
Methods: Based on data from 3,162 Americans, multivariable logistic regression and a generalized additive model (GAM) were used to analyze AIP, BMD, and TBS.
Spinal Anesthesia in Elderly Patients With Femoral Neck Fractures on Apixaban Therapy: A Case Series.
A A Pract
January 2025
From the Department of Anesthesiology, Sheba Medical Center, Ramat Gan, Israel.
This case series reviews surgeries involving elderly patients with femoral neck fractures on apixaban who underwent spinal anesthesia (SA) within 72 hours of their last dose. Despite patients being on anticoagulation, no neurological complications occurred, suggesting SA may be practical in cases where the benefits of timely surgery outweigh the potential risks, including apixaban discontinuation for a period of less than the recommended 72 hours with detectable levels of the drug remaining in the plasma. Quantitative apixaban measurements offered useful anticoagulation status insights, though safe thresholds remain undefined.

ESIC Medical College and Hospital and Occupational Disease Center [East Zone], Joka, Kolkata, India.
Background: Despite multiple studies, less recent literature and data regarding the mortality associated with hip fractures in the elderly population are available.
Objectives: To assess the mortality data and functional outcomes of patients who underwent cemented and uncemented hemiarthroplasty in femoral neck fractures. To evaluate if preoperative (minimum 2 months) calcium and vitamin D supplement intake in patients affects postoperative mobilization with or without walker support.
Influence of hip morphology on gluteal muscle biomechanics: a computational modeling study.
BMC Musculoskelet Disord
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Atrium Health Musculoskeletal Institute, 2001 Vail Ave, Charlotte, NC, USA.
Background: Hip morphology variations, particularly in femoral neck shaft angle (NSA) and iliac wing width (IWW), have been associated with gluteal tendinopathy. However, the biomechanical implications of these morphological differences on gluteal muscle function are not well understood. This study investigates how NSA and IWW influence gluteal muscle forces, moment arms, and estimated tendon loads during walking, aiming to provide insights into the potential biomechanical pathways that may contribute to altered lateral hip loading patterns.

Division of Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgery, Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK.
Aims: The primary aim of this study is to compare mobility status of patients receiving oral oxycodone with those receiving subcutaneous alfentanil as analgesic methods prior to mobilization to help physiotherapy compliance after hip fracture surgery. The secondary aims are to assess postoperative pain, health-related quality of life, in-hospital length of stay, total use of analgesia over postoperative days 1 and 2 (POD 1 and POD 2), complication rates within 30 days, and 30-day mortality rates.
Methods: A single-centre, prospective cohort study of 64 patients will be undertaken.
