Description
Summary:The conventional and newly developed geometry parameters at the femoral neck have formed a large geometry profile and their relationship with hip fracture was largely unknown. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between the geometry profile and hip fracture in Chinese. The hip geometry profile contains seven conventional geometry parameters at femoral neck (FN) and thirty newly developed parameters at three sub-regions (Narrow Neck, NN; Intertrochanter, IT; Femoral shaft, FS) of the total hip. Based on 6294 recruited Chinese (≥65 years), 97 subjects with osteoporotic fracture (OF) history and 388 matched controls were selected. The t test, Chi-square statistic, conditional logistic regression model were used. Three geometric parameters (endocortical diameter, ED; cortical thickness, CT; buckling ratio, BR) have consistent differences at all the sites between the cases and controls (p
