Predictors of 1-year mortality in a clinical cohort of hip fracture patients
Sex, age, cognitive impairment, and residential status predicted 1-year mortality. The study found an apparent "obesity paradox", where overweight patients had a lower mortality rate than normal weight patients, but unmeasured confounding may have biased this analysis. ACCI and NHFS predicted mortality better than the combination of age, sex, and ASA.
