“…Many of the reported large retrospective cohort studies evaluating fracture risk in men on ADT have men of African ethnicity underrepresented or perform no adjustment for the confounder of race in their analysis. Baseline data on the distribution of osteoporotic fractures in Jamaica show a preponderance of female patients with few fractures being due to the osteoporotic effect of ADT in prostate cancer patients (23,24). We hypothesize that fractures due to ADT use in men of African ethnicity may be less common due to the protective effect of a higher initial bone mineral density.…”

Según la normativa de salud pública en Reino Unido la cirugía debe realizarse durante las primeras 36 h 12 tras ingresar el paciente.…”

“…En países desarrollados se ha trabajado sobre aspectos organizacionales, como optimización de la oportunidad de acceso al manejo quirúrgico 11,12 y colaboración entre especialidades 13,14 . Además, se discute temas como las diferencias entre fracturas intra (FIC) y extracapsulares (FEC) 15,16 y relaciones entre mortalidad y distintas variables [17][18][19] .…”

“…La incidencia de MIH se asemeja a publicaciones estadounidenses, europeas y japonesas. [9][10][11][19][20][21][22] La mortalidad temprana a 30 días reportada varía entre 2,5 y 13,3%, con promedios de 8%. 12,23 Considerando otras publicaciones, y que MIH es una fracción de esta mortalidad a 30 días, parece razonable que permanezca bajo 5%.…”
