“…The overall characteristics and incidence of this sample are consistent with a rapidly ageing population. Taking into account previous publications on the same geographic region, [24][25][26] there is an evident increase in incidence, changing from a moderate-risk zone to a high-risk zone for HF. 1 It is the first reported high-risk zone for HF in the country.…”

“…Furthermore, it has been reported that the Latin American population suffers mostly from extracapsular HF. 24 Population studies of adults aged 65 years or older without HF in the same country have shown the following prevalence of B12 deficiency (with WHO cut-off points): Sánchez et al 27 report 12% in a sample of 1028 subjects, increasing to 25.4% when marginal deficiency is included; Cabrera et al 28 report 11.3% in a similar sample of 1013 subjects; and Castillo-Lancellotti et al report 8.1% in a sample of 1043 subjects. 29 The results of this study show higher prevalence levels than these.…”

Background Hip fractures (HF) are a high-impact geriatric syndrome. Vitamin B12 deficiency is an HF risk factor. There are few studies on prevalence of B12 deficiency in older adults with HF. The objectives are as follows: in older adults with HF, to describe/characterize plasma levels of vitamin B12 (PL-B12); to verify presence/absence of a subgroup with borderline, near-deficient PLB12; to describe HF incidence; and to analyse relationships between PL-B12 and studied variables.

“…De ser reales, podrían implicar cambios drásticos en aspectos como prevención y rehabilitación, con repercusiones clínicas y económicas. En Europa y Estados Unidos de Norteamérica las más frecuentes son las FIC 16,17,39 . En nuestra serie predominan las FEC, lo mismo en otras series chilenas 10 y latinoamericanas 40 .…”

“…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] . Como la literatura destaca diferencias regionales incluso en un mismo país 9 , consideramos interesante comprobar si se mantienen las tendencias descritas en otros trabajos chilenos.…”
