Comorbidities only account for a small proportion of excess mortality after fracture: A record linkage study of individual fracture types [PDF]
Background: Non-hip non-vertebral fractures (NHNV) constitute the majority of osteoporotic fractures but few studies have examined the association between these fractures, co-morbidity and mortality.
