Characteristics of clinical trials related to hip fractures and factors associated with completion.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study aimed at investigating the characteristics of clinical trials related to hip fractures that were registered at ClinicalTrials.gov. It also aimed to identify potential risk factors associated with completion.

Main body

We obtained 733 clinical studies related to hip fractures from the ClinicalTrials.gov database and included 470 studies in the analysis. These clinical trials were divided into behavioral, drug/biological, device, procedure, and other categories based on intervention types. Clinical trials investigating drugs or biologics were categorized based on the specific agents administered in each trial. Multiple logistic and Cox regression models were used to test the ability of 24 potential risk factors in predicting recruitment status and complet
