Tebé C, Martínez-Laguna D, Carbonell-Abella C, et al. - Using multi-state cohort analyses, researchers compared hip fracture and post-hip fracture mortality among individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and non-diabetic individuals. In total, 44,802 patients with T2D and 81,233 matched controls (mean age: 72 years) were followed for a median of 8 years. In all, 23,818 died without fracturing and 3,317 broke a hip, of whom 838 subsequently died. The authors discovered that those with T2D were at increased risk of hip fracture, post-hip fracture mortality, and hip fracture–free death. Men with T2D had a 28% higher risk of dying after suffering a hip fracture following adjustment, and women had an excess risk of post-hip fracture mortality of 57%.
