Post-hip fracture rehabilitation outcomes of diabetic and non-diabetic elderly patients

Abstract: Background Although patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are at higher risk of hip fracture, data regarding the effect of DM on rehabilitation outcomes are limited. Methods A retrospective single-centre study was conducted comparing elderly diabetic and non-diabetic patients with recent hip fracture, admitted to geriatric rehabilitation, 2014–2019.
