Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates the initiation rates of Teriparatide, a medication that can help older women with osteoporotic pelvic fractures, at a hospital, noting a significant gap where 93% of eligible patients did not receive it.
- - Researchers conducted a chart review of 118 elderly female patients with stable lateral compression pelvic fractures, finding that only a small percentage were evaluated for or prescribed Teriparatide despite its documented benefits.
- - The study highlights that while orthopedic services recommended Teriparatide in all cases, the actual initiation of treatment was low due to insufficient evaluations and insurance barriers, emphasizing the need for improved actions in managing these injuries.
Statistical Inference for Counting Processes Under Shape Heterogeneity.
Stat Med

When the proportionality assumption fails to hold, we propose to characterize covariate effects on the rate function through two types of parameters: the shape parameters and the size parameters.
