Abstract:Objective:To investigate whether hip fracture increased the risk of coronary heart disease(CHD)by conduc-ting a cohort study in China. Methods:To register continuously 550 patients in hospital from July 2010 to July 2013,identify a study cohort of participants newly diagnosed with hip fracture and a control cohort participants without hip fracture. Results:The adjusted hazard ratio of CHD was 1. 52 - fold higher in the hip fracture cohort than it was in the control cohort(95 % CI= 1. 40 ~ 1. 66). Sex,age and comorbidity - specific analyses showed a higher relative risk of CHD for both women and men, all age groups,those with and without comorbidities,and patients with hip fracture compared with the control cohort. The high-est risk of CHD was within the first year after hip fracture(adjusted HR = 1. 42,95 % CI = 1. 18 ~ 1. 52). Conclusion:Hip fracture was independently associated with a subsequent risk of CHD.
