Key Points

The aim is to determine the role of second metacarpal cortical percentage and psoas muscle index in predicting loss of reduction after non-operative treatment of distal radius fractures in adult women.
Measured second metacarpal cortical percentage and psoas muscle index in adult women with distal radius fractures.
Participants underwent non-operative treatment, followed by monitoring for loss of reduction after treatment.
Higher second metacarpal cortical percentage correlates with lower rates of loss of reduction.
Elevated psoas muscle index is associated with increased risk of loss of reduction.

Implication

Evaluates predictors for loss of reduction in adult women with distal radius fractures, indicating importance of specific metrics.
