Based on binary logistic regression analysis, presence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (OR 3.73, 95% CI [1.8–7.76]), RDW (OR 1.78, 95% CI [1.48–2.14]), and albumin (OR 0.81, 95% CI [0.75–0.87]), values at admission were found to be independent predictors of 1-year mortality in elderly patients with hip fracture. The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
