That’s the question a team of Cleveland Clinic and Case Western Reserve researchers tried to answer with a systematic review of the literature. The team was hoping to quantify to determine rates, timelines, and prognostic factors which can determine how fast young TKA patients return to work and / or return to sports.

Hip Fracture Dangers and Mortality Rates
A hip fracture, more common in older people, can reduce a person's ability to live independently and possibly shorten their life as well.
