    Hip fractures in the elderly have a high mortality rate and can lead to permanent disability, making accurate risk prediction essential.

  • 2

    The MMPro-HIP model integrates multiple data modalities to predict hip fracture risk, effectively addressing issues of incomplete clinical data.

  • 3

    In a study of 1,287 elderly patients, the MMPro-HIP model achieved an accuracy of 90.94% and an AUC of 0.9423, outperforming traditional models.

  • 4

    Key predictors for hip fracture risk included age, sex, bone mineral density (BMD), and cholesterol levels, with BMD being particularly significant.

  • 5

    The findings suggest that multimodal fusion strategies can enhance clinical prediction of hip fractures, though external validation is necessary.
