“…No blinding of investigator was identified among these RCTs, but there were fewer tendencies to influence the primary measures. In addition, all the RCTs reported and explained the dropout and were at risk of neither selecting bias nor other bias . For the quality of observational studies assessed using the Newcastle Ottawa Scale, one study with score of 4 was considered as high risk of bias and the other two studies scored 6 and 7 presented low risk of bias.…”

Background To date, there are just several studies comparing distal locked nails with distal unlocked nails in treating intertrochanteric fractures. We report the first meta‐analysis about this issue. Methods Systematic search was conducted for studies in PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library. Meta‐analyses were performed regarding intra operative outcomes, complications and functional outcomes. Results Pooled results showed insignificant difference between distal locking group and distal unlocking group in hip pain (relative risk (RR) 1.14, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.59–2.19), distal tip fracture (RR 1.08, 95% CI 0.37–3.11), lag screw cut‐out (RR 1.60, 95% CI 0.54–4.78), delayed or nonunion (RR 1.32, 95% CI 0.25–7.06), deep vein thrombosis (RR 1.06, 95% CI 0.23–4.84), wound infection (RR 0.58, 95% CI 0.28–1.22), Harris hip score (standard mean deviation (SMD) 0.03, 95% CI −0.15 to 0.21) and walking ability. However, significant difference was detected in operation time (SMD 0.77, 95% CI 0.36–1.17), fluoroscopy exposure time (SMD 1.02, 95% CI 0.52–1.52), blood loss (SMD 0.80, 95% CI 0.62–0.99) and total incision length (SMD 1.16, 95% CI 0.86–1.47). Result of trial sequential analysis indicated conclusive evidence. Conclusion Current evidence indicates that the distal locked intramedullary nails should not be recommended as routine choice for stable intertrochanteric fractures.

BackgroundHip fractures are a major healthcare problem, presenting a challenge and burden to individuals and healthcare systems. The number of hip fractures globally is rising. The majority of extracapsular hip fractures are treated surgically. ObjectivesTo assess the relative e ects (benefits and harms) of all surgical treatments used in the management of extracapsular hip fractures in older adults, using a network meta-analysis of randomised trials, and to generate a hierarchy of interventions according to their outcomes. Search methodsWe searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science and five other databases in July 2020. Selection criteriaWe included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs comparing di erent treatments for fragility extracapsular hip fractures in older adults. We included internal and external fixation, arthroplasties and non-operative treatment. We excluded studies of hip fractures with specific pathologies other than osteoporosis or resulting from high-energy trauma. Data collection and analysisTwo review authors independently assessed studies for inclusion. One review author completed data extraction which was checked by a second review author. We collected data for three outcomes at di erent time points: mortality and health-related quality of life (HRQoL)both reported within 4 months, at 12 months and a er 24 months of surgery, and unplanned return to theatre (at end of study follow-up).We performed a network meta-analysis (NMA) with Stata so ware, using frequentist methods, and calculated the di erences between treatments using risk ratios (RRs) and standardised mean di erences (SMDs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). We also performed direct comparisons using the same codes. Surgical interventions for treating extracapsular hip fractures in older adults: a network meta-analysis (Review)
