The use of epidemiology as a means of understanding the disease in individuals has confirmed that fractures are a common and serious consequence of osteoporosis in women--and in men. | Gov't Doc #: | 8256790 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/13299 | Journal: | The American journal of medicine | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8256790 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Accidental Falls.statistics & numerical data Adult Aged Aged, 80 and over Bone Density Female Forearm Injuries.epidemiology.etiology Fractures, Bone.epidemiology.etiology Humans Incidence Male Middle Aged Osteoporosis.complications.epidemiology.physiopathology.therapy Primary Prevention.methods Risk Factors Sex Characteristics Sex Factors Spinal Fractures.epidemiology.etiology |
