Mortality after osteoporotic fractures (2004, background): “Many studies have shown an increase in mortality associated with osteoporotic fractures [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].”
Osteoporosis in the European Union: medical management, epidemiology and economic burden (2013, background): “Collectively, osteoporotic fractures account for approximately 1 % of the DALYs attributable to non-communicable diseases in Europe.”
Osteoporosis: a still increasing prevalence. (2005, background): “Approximately half the deaths were within a year of fracture, and the increase in mortality was further exacerbated by a previous vertebral fracture [29,30].”
VerSe: A Vertebrae Labelling and Segmentation Benchmark for Multi-detector CT Images (2020, background): “osteoporosis leads to an 8-fold higher mortality rate (Cauley et al., 2000).”
Mortality risk associated with low-trauma osteoporotic fracture and subsequent fracture in men and women. (2009, background): “Some studies suggest that a large part of the fracture-mortality association is related to underlying health or comorbidities(7,12) whereas others have found little or no evidence that underlying health plays a major part.(6,9) Author Affiliations: Bone and Mineral Research Program, Garvan Institute”
