Cemented or Uncemented Hemiarthroplasty for Intracapsular Hip Fracture

In this multicenter, randomized trial comparing cemented with modern uncemented hemiarthroplasty in persons 60 years of age or older with an intracapsular hip fracture, cemented hemiarthroplasty resulted in a modestly but significantly better quality of life and a lower risk of periprosthetic fractu...
