Huang PH, et al. - Among 44,065 diabetic patients with different stages of renal function, researchers compared the surgical outcome, readmission, and mortality rates after osteosynthesis of hip fractures. According to this population-based cohort study, chronic kidney disease (CKD) was linked to worse results after hip fracture fixation surgery. The diabetic dialysis group had the highest risk of readmission and mortality among the three groups at all time-points. Patients with CKD had a similar risk of infection and revision to non-CKD patients, though they had a significantly higher risk of readmission and mortality.
