The quality of the management of patients with osteoporosis varies by country. The recommendations of the Swiss Association against osteoporosis propose intervention thresholds based on the results of the FRAX tool. Despite increasing number of observational studies with several hundred thousands of patients, it is not possible to conclude to a clear increased risk of cardiovascular disease with calcium intakes. A persistent effect of zoledronic acid is observed even after one single injection. There is no increased fracture risk within 7 months following Denosumab treatment cessation.

The aim was to study the independent risk factors of internal fixation failure in proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedullary nailing for intertrochanteric femur fracture, and to build a nomogram prediction model accordingly. Clinical data of patients with intertrochanteric femoral rotor fractures admitted to the First People's Hospital of Longquanyi District from January 2018 to January 2023 were retrospectively collected. The occurrence of spiral blade cut out, internal fixation breakage, peri-internal fixation fracture, hip internal rotation deformity, and fracture nonunion within 1 year after surgery were included in the internal fixation failure group, and the rest were included in the internal fixation success group.

Background Context: Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) causes pain, kyphosis and neurological damage, which significantly affect patients' quality of life. Patients with OVCF are often elderly and have severe osteoporosis, which makes preoperative symptom more serious, postoperative recovery worse and the incidence of postoperative complications high. The paraspinal muscles have been well studied in adult spinal deformities, but there is no conclusive evidence that their findings can be applied to OVCF.
