Hip Fractures and Their Causes and Prevention

Published · 2020

This Special Issue invited original papers with important and novel contributions related to hip fractures, their causes, and prevention strategies. Reviews, original research papers, short communications, and letters were welcome.

Why this collection matters: Hip fractures remain a major health challenge in aging populations and are associated with high morbidity, reduced quality of life, and increased mortality. The supplied record identifies modifiable risk factors and effective prevention strategies, including primary and secondary prevention for repeat fractures. It encourages work addressing muscle-related factors, obesity, vitamin D, nutrition, comorbid illness, depression, and medication use.

Thematic record

Genetic and Non-Genetic Tools to Combat Aging-Associated Diseases

Status awaiting editorial confirmation

This Special Issue calls for original papers with important and novel contributions related to genetic and non-genetic tools to combat aging-associated diseases.

Why this theme matters: Aging-associated diseases pose significant health challenges worldwide and require multifaceted solutions. The supplied record describes genetic tools including gene therapy, gene editing, and stem cell approaches, and non-genetic tools including lifestyle interventions, pharmacological treatments, and advanced diagnostics. It welcomes research that advances prevention, treatment, and translation of these approaches into clinical or community care.

It encourages high-quality submissions that compare genetic and non-genetic strategies and clarify their practical relevance for aging populations.

Editorial framework

How JARH handles Special Issue manuscripts

The existing JARH page states that Special Issue submissions follow standard peer review and journal policies. A Special Issue theme, enquiry, or cover-letter note does not determine an editorial outcome.

Author requirements

Follow the journal’s author instructions, include reporting checklists when relevant, and provide a Data Availability Statement where applicable.

Cover-letter note

The existing page advises authors to indicate the Special Issue title in the Cover Letter field, as advised by editors. Confirm availability before doing so.

Editorial standards

Use the journal’s editorial policies for peer-review, ethics, authorship, and competing-interest requirements.
