“…Vertebral and hip fractures are considered life-threatening pathologies in the elderly (3). Hip fractures are a significant and incapacitating condition that disproportionately affects older women (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15). While the epidemiology of hip fractures varies across countries, it is estimated that approximately 18% of women and 6% of men globally will be affected by this condition.…”

“…While the epidemiology of hip fractures varies across countries, it is estimated that approximately 18% of women and 6% of men globally will be affected by this condition. Although the agestandardized incidence rate has decreased in many nations, the aging population generates a much greater impact (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15). Therefore, the number of hip fractures globally is expected to swell from 1.26 million in 1990 to 4.5 million by the year 2050.…”

“…The financial burden associated with this ailment is colossal since it requires long hospital stays and subsequent rehabilitation. Additionally, hip fracture is correlated with other adverse effects such as disability, depression, and cardiovascular diseases, which further exacerbates societal costs (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15).…”

IntroductionBone density regulation is considered one of the systems affected by thyroid hormones, leading to low bone density that can result in pathologic fractures, including hip fractures. This review aimed to update clinicians and researchers about the current data regarding the relationship between hip fractures and thyroid disorders.MethodsEnglish papers were thoroughly searched in four main online databases of Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and Embase. Data extraction was done following two steps of screening/selection using distinct inclusion/exclusion criteria. This study used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) checklist and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) as bias assessment.ResultsIn total, 19 articles were included in the research. The risk of hip fractures in women with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is higher than hip fractures caused by osteoporosis. Men with hyperthyroidism and subclinical hyperthyroidism are at higher risk for hip fracture. Also, a decrease in serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) may be associated with an increased risk of hip fracture.ConclusionReaching a consensus conclusion regarding the association between subclinical thyroid dysfunction and hip fracture is not feasible due to the heterogenicity of evidence; however, there may be a higher risk of fracture in individuals with subclinical hyperthyroidism.
