PG - 100204 LID - 10.1016/j.bonr.2019.100204 [doi] LID - 100204 AB - AIM: To examine the association of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use with subsequent hip fracture incidence in hip fracture patients, accounting for gender, age, PPI doses, PPI initiation before or after first fracture, and year from first fracture in which the first subsequent fracture occurred. METHODS: Data from 31,668 Austrian patients >/=50 years with the first hip fracture between July 2008 and December 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. After exclusion of patients on anti-osteoporotic medication, incidence of subsequent hip fractures was compared between users and non-users of PPIs using regression models. RESULTS: In general, use of PPIs among hip fracture patients was associated with increased risk for subsequent hip fracture (OR 1.58, 95%-CI 1.25-2.00), in particular in men, in the age group of 70-84 years, and when PPIs were initiated before the first fracture. Low PPI doses of
