Examination of osteosarcopenia in patients over 65 years old with hip fracture

The present study found that the prevalence of osteosarcopenia was higher in patients with hip fracture. There is a limited number of studies in literature directly evaluating the relationship between osteosarcopenia and hip fracture. The presence of osteosarcopenia is often overlooked when the bone fracture is the prevailing clinical condition. Osteosarcopenia is frequently the accompanying diagnosis in patients with hip fracture.
