Fracture risk following an osteoporotic fracture
Osteoporosis International, 2003The aim of this study was to examine the pattern of fracture risk following a prior fracture at the spine, shoulder or hip. We studied 1918 patients with fractures at these sites identified from the Department of Radiology in Malmo who were followed for 5 years.

Osteoporotic Vertebral Fractures
2021Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic disorder of the bone, affecting approximately 100 million people worldwide. Even if it is considered a women’s health issue, osteoporosis affects also 33% of men by the age of 75 years old. Vertebral Compression Fractures (VCFs) are the most common manifestations of osteoporosis. The risk of sustaining a second

Pharmacogenomics of Osteoporotic Fractures
2014Osteoporosis is a prevalent disease that typically reduces bone strength and predisposes to fractures. It is a multifactorial disorder resulting from the interaction of genetic and acquired factors. Candidate gene studies and, more recently, genome-wide studies have identified a number of polymorphisms significantly associated with bone mass and ...

Biomechanics of osteoporotic fractures
Injury, 2007The objective of this review article is to present biomechanics concepts and data relevant to osteoporotic fractures. Fractures are mechanical events that occur when the applied load exceeds the fracture load (bone strength); both loading and strength must be considered to understand fracture risk.
