Commentary from the author on Twitter
Pleased to have our Cochrane review on mobility training after hip fracture out today. Key message “extra exercises targeting balance, walking and functional tasks appear effective in improving mobility in hospital and after discharge.” @msk_health https://t.co/vLbGWKZWgp

In patients undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty for osteoarthritis, aspirin compared with enoxaparin resulted in a significantly higher rate of symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE), including below-knee VTE. #Research https://t.co/CdlbAgBttJ

Led by Maura Marcucci, network meta-analysis of of 68 surgery #RCT's (45,445 patients; mainly #ortho) found that #DOAC's & #LMWH reduce #VTE but probably increase major bleeding to a similar extent. DOACs probably prevent symptomatic VTE more than #LMWH. https://t.co/7vrgVpfD3s pic.twitter.com/H5Fuq7p1hi

Which are the best treatments for #HipFractures in older adults?
A new review from @CochraneBJMT includes 184 studies with 26,073 people with a break just outside the hip joint & suggests that "there is no 'best treatment' for this type of broken hip".
