作者根据计算机化的出院记录确定了加拿大萨斯喀彻温省 65 岁或以上居民 1976 年至 1985 年 10 年间髋部骨折的发生率，并将其与北欧和美国其他几个人群的发生率进行了比较。在萨斯喀彻温省，年平均发病率为每 1,000 人年 5.5 例。女性发病率是男性的2倍，城市地区发病率比非城市地区高27%，且无长期上升趋势。萨斯喀彻温省的髋部骨折发生率低于斯堪的纳维亚半岛和美国的人口，但与英国人口的发生率相当。需要进一步的研究来阐明导致这种变异的遗传、环境和行为因素。
The authors ascertained the incidence of hip fracture in Saskatchewan, Canada, residents aged 65 years or older for the 10 years 1976–1985 from computerized hospital discharge records and compared it with rates for several other populations in Northern Europe and the United States. In Saskatchewan, the average annual incidence was 5.5 per 1,000 person-years. The incidence in women was twice that in men, the incidence in urban areas was 27% greater than that in nonurban areas, and there was no secular trend of increasing rates. The incidence of hip fracture in Saskatchewan was lower than that for populations in Scandinavia and the United States but was comparable to rates in English populations. Further study is needed to elucidate the genetic, environmental, and behavioral factors responsible for this variation.
