“…The association between fracture and dementia may be contributed to shared risk factors including APOE4, low levels of physical activity, and vitamin D. 33 Whilst fracture as an independent risk factor of dementia has been reported in several studies. 34 , 35 Respiratory disorders (COPD and asthma) were also linked to increased dementia in our study. Although the underlying mechanisms are unclear, our study is supported by recent evidence that poor pulmonary function might accelerate cognitive decline.…”

“…One and a half mn hip fractures occur per year and this number will continue to increase to 4.5 mn by 2050 4 . Dementia patients had an odds ratio of 6.9 to develop hip fractures, and hip fractures could also in turn increase the risk of dementia 5 . The recent study showed that antipsychotic drugs were associated with an increased risk of hip fractures among dementia patients 6 and elderly dementia adults needed home care services more often than elderly adults who did not have dementia 7 .…”

“…The main cause lies in the delirium that some of these patients experience during the postoperative period, which is estimated to increase the risk of developing dementia by up to 15 times in the 3 years after the fracture 16 . In addition, other factors have been related, such as the inflammatory response during the fracture consolidation process, the alteration of motor function and a decrease in physical activity after it, and the medication they receive during the process -before, during and after surgery-which could influence impairment 17 .…”
