Parkinson’s disease and risk of hip fracture: systematic review and meta-analysis

English Abstract

The relationship between Parkinson’s disease (PD) and risk of hip fracture yielded inconsistent results. Therefore, we conducted the present systematic review and meta-analysis of published observational studies to assess the association between PD and risk of hip fracture. PubMed, ISI, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases were searched systematically to identify studies assessing the relationship between PD and the risk of hip fracture up to July 01, 2017. In addition, to find related articles, the reference section of retrieved articles was checked. Random-effects model was used for calculation of pooled hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Thirteen independent studies containing 564,947 participants were included in the meta-analysis. The overall results of included studies showed PD to be associated with the risk of hip fracture (HRoverall = 3.13, 95% CI 2.53–3.87) in women 3.11 (2.51–3.86) and men 2.60 (2.19–3.09). Our meta-analysis showed the direct association between PD and the risk of hip fracture in both men and women. However, due to the limitations of this study, further well-designed studies are required to confirm our findings.
