More than 2 million U.S. adults experience fragility fractures each year, and having one can increase the risk for another.

A PCORI-funded randomized controlled trial is comparing two approaches to help prevent future fractures:

1️⃣ Augmented-Fracture Liaison Service: Patients receive education from a patient navigator and have telehealth appointments with a bone health clinician
2️⃣ Enhanced usual care: Patients receive educational materials encouraging them to follow up with their primary care physicians, who are notified about patients at higher risk, and receive information about guideline-recommended fracture care

A breast cancer called ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) makes up about 25% of new diagnoses and may or may not turn into invasive cancer. To treat DCIS, women often opt for breast-conserving surgery. During the surgery, their clinicians may remove just the tumors or also remove some lymph nodes to perform biopsies.

A PCORI-funded patient-centered CER study compared outcomes for women who did or did not receive biopsies during their surgeries.

Women who had the biopsies were more likely to have certain short-term side effects than women who didn’t, as well as long-term swelling. There were no differences between the groups in infections, pain or fluid buildup nor in the cancer spreading or how long the patients lived.
