We analyzed hospitalization for hip fractures in elderly Italian people from 2007 to 2014. The number of fractures increased by 5.50% (women + 3.36; men + 12.9%) only due to people aged ≥ 85 years old. Incidence rates per 10,000 inhabitants decreased in all the age groups (65-74, 75-84, and also ≥ 85).

Abstract
We analyzed hospitalization for hip fractures in elderly Italian people from 2007 to 2014. The number of fractures increased by 5.50% (women + 3.36; men + 12.9%) only due to people aged ≥ 85 years old. Incidence rates per 10,000 inhabitants decreased in all the age groups (65-74, 75-84, and also ≥ 85).File in questo prodotto:
