Twelve clinical practice guidelines, 141 systematic reviews and 514 CTs were identified. The studies prioritize the hip (35.7%) and wrist (23.1%). Clinical trials were concentrated in Europe (47.8%), Asia (24.9%), North America (21%), and Oceania (11%), with few studies from South America (1.2%), Africa (0.2%) and none from Central America. The average PEDro scale score was 5.35\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.81, with a peak in study production observed in the 2010s.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fracture studies on the PEDro platform are limited in number and quality. Many segments lack clinical guidelines and systematic reviews or trials. The geographic distribution reflects disparities in scientific production, favoring developed regions.
