The interplay between stroke and hip fractures: a narrative review of mechanisms, risk assessment, and prevention.
Review in Frontiers in aging, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Stroke survivors face a substantially increased risk of hip fractures due to a combination of motor impairments, falls, and stroke-induced bone density loss. Conversely, hip fractures in this population are associated with elevated mortality, reduced functional recovery, and greater healthcare burden. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence on the epidemiological, pathophysiological, and clinical interrelationships between stroke and hip fractures. Key quantitative findings include a 7.6% incidence of hip fractures within 5 years post-stroke-significantly higher than the 2.8% observed in non-stroke populations-and a 30-day postoperative mortality rate of up to 14.8% in stroke patients with hip fractures. Severe post-stroke disability is associated with a 2.1- to 4.8-fold increased risk of hip fracture compared to those with good recovery. The review also highlights the utility of risk assessment tools such as FRAX and emerging prediction models, and evaluates prevention strategies including osteoporosis screening, exercise-based rehabilitation, and lifestyle modifications.
