Table 5.
General incidence and relative frequency of various fracture types/combinations with dementia/T2Da in patients 60-89 years of age. Dementia diagnosis was allowed from any time before fracture to 1 year postfracture and was specified as any of the following ICD-10b codes or a combination thereof: vascular dementia, F01; dementia due to Alzheimer disease, G30; or dementia with Lewy bodies, G31.83. T2D was required to be recorded within 6 months prior to fracture to 1 year postfracture and was specified with ICD-10 code E11. ICD-10 codes were aggregated as described in the header for this table, and patients were only allowed 1 event with the code or pooled codes specified in each column from 60 to 89 years of age. Incidence entries include individuals deceased the same day as the fracture. The relative frequency of each fracture/fracture grouping is shown in parentheses and is specific to the fracture groupings studied herein and, as with Table 1, there is a small possibility that patients were counted multiple times if they suffered fractures across the specified types/combinations.
| Total counts of fracture events of the types/combinations queried in combination with dementia/T2D | Hip (S72.0-2), n (%) | Humerus (S42.2), n (%) | Regions near the hip (S32.0-6), n (%) | Nonhip regions of the femur (S72.3-4), n (%) | Knee and lower leg (S82.0-4), n (%) | Talus, malleoli, and foot (S82.5-6, S92.1, S92.3-5), n (%) |
| With dementia (N=112,113) | 37,084 (33.1) | 12,625 (11.3) | 34,211 (30.5) | 6425 (5.7) | 9070 (8.1) | 12,698 (11.3) |
| With T2D (N=594,711) | 100,804 (17.0) | 72,748 (12.2) | 146,301 (24.6) | 28,353 (4.8) | 91,376 (15.4) | 155,129 (26.1) |
