The effects of age, adiposity, and physical activity on the risk of seven site‐specific fractures in postmenopausal women
Risk factors for fracture of the neck of the femur are relatively well established, but those for fracture at other sites are little studied. In this large population study we explore the role of age, body mass index (BMI), and physical activity on the risk of fracture at seven sites in postmenopaus...
