• An estimate of the worldwide prevalence and disability associated with osteoporotic fractures (2006, methodology): “The incidence of hip fracture was computed for the world regions for men and women age 50 years or more in 5-year age intervals, when possible, from the year 1990 onwards [9].”
• A systematic review of hip fracture incidence and probability of fracture worldwide (2012, methodology): “since these used recent data were available and had been vetted previously for quality or consistency [13, 14].”
• FRAX and its applications to clinical practice. (2009, background): “In addition to the clinical risk factors, fracture probability varies markedly in different regions of the world [6].”
• European guidance for the diagnosis and management of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women (2018, background): “Using this criterion, the intervention thresholdwill vary from country to country because the population risks (of fracture and death) vary [91, 129].”
• A reference standard for the description of osteoporosis. (2008, background): “Indeed, age- and sexspecific risks of hip fracture differ more than 10-fold, even within Europe [51–54].”
• FRAX™ and the assessment of fracture probability in men and women from the UK (2008, background): “The 10-year probability of fracture varies markedly in different countries [97].”
• European guidance for the diagnosis and management of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women (2008, background): “Fracture probability differs markedly in different regions of the world [78].”
