Whitney DG, et al. - In comparison with adults without cerebral palsy (CP), researchers determined the prevalence of fracture among a large sample of private insured adults with CP. They used diagnostic codes to identify 18- to 64-year-olds with and without CP and any fracture consisting of osteoporotic pathological fracture, as well as any type of fracture of the head/neck, thoracic, lumbar/pelvis, upper extremity, and lower extremity regions. They included 5,555 adults with and 5.5 million adults without CP. Compared with adults without CP, CP adults had a higher prevalence of all-cause fracture and fracture of the head/neck, thoracic, lumbar/pelvis, upper extremity, and lower extremity regions. According to this cross-sectional study, young and middle-aged adults with CP have a high prevalence of all-cause fracture vs adults without CP, present even after cardiometabolic diseases and osteoporosis were taken into account.
