TL;DR: The data confirm the frequent occurrence of the disorder in men as well as in women and the rise in incidence with age and some evidence of geographic variation in fracture occurrence; rates were higher in Sweden than elsewhere in Europe.

TL;DR: The data suggest that modification of other lifestyle risk factors is unlikely to have a major impact on the population occurrence of vertebral fractures, and the important biological mechanisms underlying vertebral fracture risk need to be explored using new investigational strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: P prevalent radiographic vertebral deformities in women are a strong predictor of hip fracture, and to a lesser extent humerus and ‘other’ limb fractures; however, they do not predict distal forearm fractures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Osteoporosis changes the amount of vertebral trabecular bone at risk of fracture but not the vertebral load distribution.
TL;DR: Finite-element models indicated that neither osteopenia nor osteoporosis had any effect on the contribution of the trabecular core to the total load placed on the vertebra, and osteoporbic vertebrae carried about half the load.
