Introduction

The Tour de France, commonly recognised and the hardest physical endurance event on the planet, is an iconic cycling competition with a history of ever impressive performances and increasingly notable injuries. This study aims to methodologically catalogue and analyse injuries sustained by professional riders over a span of six years and understand the operative workload created by this prestigious race. (2018–2023).

Methods

Data was gathered from multiple publicly available sources, including pro-cycling stats, news articles, team press releases and independent medical reports. Each injury was categorized by year, rider, and injury type.

Background

There remains a paucity of clinical studies on the effects of coronavirus on perioperative outcomes, with no existing trials reporting on risk factors associated with increased risk of postoperative mortality in these patients. The objectives of this study were to assess perioperative complications and identify risk factors for increased mortality in patients with coronavirus undergoing surgery.

Methods

This multicentre cohort study included 340 coronavirus negative patients versus 82 coronavirus positive patients undergoing surgical treatment for neck of femur fractures across nine NHS hospitals within Greater London, United Kingdom. Predefined study outcomes relating to patient demographics, fracture configuration, operative treatment, perioperative complications and mortality were recorded by observers using a standardised data collection proforma. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to identify risk factors associated with increased risk of mortality.

Aims

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many patients continue to require urgent surgery for hip fractures. However, the impact of COVID-19 on perioperative outcomes in these high-risk patients remains unknown. The objectives of this study were to establish the effects of COVID-19 on perioperative morbidity and mortality, and determine any risk factors for increased mortality in patients with COVID-19 undergoing hip fracture surgery.

Methods

This multicentre cohort study included 340 COVID-19-negative patients versus 82 COVID-19-positive patients undergoing surgical treatment for hip fractures across nine NHS hospitals in Greater London, UK. Patients in both treatment groups were comparable for age, sex, body mass index, fracture configuration, and type of surgery performed. Predefined perioperative outcomes were recorded within a 30-day postoperative period. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to identify risk factors associated with increased risk of mortality.
