description Background: In recent years, fracture liaison services (FLS) have been applied for hip fractures; however, their effectiveness remains uncertain. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of FLS in patients with hip fractures. Design: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Data sources: Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Ebsco, Ovid, Web of Science, Medline, CNKI, Wangfang, and Vip were searched from their date of inception to March 2023. Two researchers screened the literature based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, evaluated the quality, extracted data, and conducted a meta-analysis using ReviewManager 5.4. Results: After screening, 12 randomised controlled trials (RCT) including 2136 patients were used in the meta-analysis. The primary outcomes were hip function rate of recurrent fracture, medication adherence, and degree of weakness. FLS improved hip function in patients with hip fractures [MD = 9.37, 95 % CI (7.69, 11.06), P < 0.0001], P < 0.0001], medication adherence [OR = 10.59, 95 % CI (1.64, 68.41), P<0.0001], degree of weakness [MD = −1.45, 95%CI (−1.68,-1.23), P<0.0001], and reduced the rate of recurrent fractures [OR = 0.60, 95 % CI (0.44, 0.82). Conclusion: Implementation of the FLS management model was beneficial for patients with hip fractures. It can positively impact the prognosis of patients with hip fractures by improving hip function, reducing the rate of recurrent fractures, and improving medication adherence and degree of weakness.
