A population-based case-control study investigated possible association between statin use and risk of hip fracture among the elderly in Taiwan.The Taiwan National Health Insurance Program database was used to identify 7464 subjects aged 65 years or older with newly diagnosed hip fracture in 2000 to 2013. An additional 7464 subjects aged 65 years or older without hip fracture were randomly selected as the control group. Hip fracture cases and controls were matched for sex, age, comorbidities, and index year of hip fracture diagnosis. Statin use was defined as “current,” “recent,” or “past” if the patient's statin prescription was respectively filled <3, 3 to 6, or ≥6 months before the date of the hip fracture. The odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for hip fracture associated with statin use was estimated using the logistic regression model.The logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the odds of current statin use in cases with hip fracture were lower than the odds of current statin use in subjects without hip fracture (adjusted OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.65, 0.82).The odds of current statin use in cases with hip fracture were lower than the odds of current statin use in subjects without hip fracture in elderly people in Taiwan.

Gastrectomy correlates with increased risk of pulmonary tuberculosis

et al. 2018

The objective to assess the association between gastrectomy and the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis among patients without gastric cancer in Taiwan.There were 762 subjects with newly performing gastrectomy as the gastrectomy group since 2000 to 2012, and 2963 randomly selected subjects without gastrectomy as the non-gastrectomy group. Subjects with history of pulmonary tuberculosis or gastric cancer before the index date were excluded. Both gastrectomy and non-gastrectomy groups were matched with sex, age, and comorbidities. The incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis was assessed in both groups. The multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to assess the hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval for risk of pulmonary tuberculosis associated with gastrectomy.The overall incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis was 1.97-fold greater in the gastrectomy group than that in the non-gastrectomy group. The multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis demonstrated that the adjusted HR of pulmonary tuberculosis was 1.97 for the gastrectomy group, compared with the non-gastrectomy group. Male sex, age (increase per 1 year), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and splenectomy were other factors that could be related to pulmonary tuberculosis.Gastrectomy is associated with 1.97-fold increased risk of pulmonary tuberculosis among patients without gastric cancer.

Little research is available on the association between use of thiazolidinediones and hip fracture in old people in Taiwan. We conducted a population-based case-control study to examine this issue.Using the database of the Taiwan National Health Insurance Program, we identified 603 type 2 diabetic subjects 65 years or older in age with newly diagnosed hip fracture in 2000 to 2013 as cases. We randomly selected 603 type 2 diabetic subjects 65 years or older without hip fracture as the controls. Both cases and controls were matched with sex, age, comorbidities, and index year of diagnosing hip fracture. Current use of thiazolidinediones was defined as subjects whose last remaining one tablet of thiazolidinediones was noted ≤30 days before the date of diagnosing hip fracture. Never use of thiazolidinediones was defined as subjects who never had a prescription of thiazolidinediones. The odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for hip fracture associated with thiazolidinediones use was estimated by the multivariable unconditional logistic regression analysis.After adjustment for covariables, the multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that the adjusted OR of hip fracture was 1.64 for subjects with current use of thiazolidinediones (95% CI 1.01, 2.67), when compared with subjects with never use of thiazolidinediones.Our findings suggest that current use of thiazolidinediones is associated with a 64% higher risk of hip fracture in type 2 diabetic old people in Taiwan. Clinicians should consider the possibility of thiazolidinediones-associated hip fracture among type 2 diabetic old people currently using thiazolidinediones.
