Correlation between admission hyperglycemia and postoperative pneumonia after hip fracture surgery: A propensity score-matched study.

ABSTRACT: The association between admission hyperglycemia and postoperative pneumonia is unclear in hip fracture patients. We investigated the relationship between admission hyperglycemia and postoperative pneumonia after hip fracture surgery. This retrospective study analyzed data from 1,267 geriatric patients admitted for hip fractures. Patients were categorized into normoglycemic (< 6.10 mmol/L) and hyperglycemic (≥ 6.10 mmol/L) groups based on admission blood glucose levels. Multivariable logistic regression and propensity score matching (PSM) were used to control for potential confounding variables and estimate adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for postoperative pneumonia (POP). We also examined the dose-dependent link between admission blood glucose and the likelihood of develo
