雷克雅未克心脏研究始于1967年，旨在发现和评估心血管疾病的危险因素。该研究包括4,137名出生于1907年至1934年之间的男性，我们检查了这些受试者从1977年1月至2000年12月底或死亡期间记录的所有骨折。研究开始时，他们的平均年龄为54岁（42 - 69），平均随访时间为19年。我们检查了患者的记录，包括雷克雅未克所有医院的放射科和雷克雅未克唯一的门诊事故诊所的记录。排除陈旧性骨折和恶性肿瘤引起的骨折。创伤的严重程度由E-数字估计，939人（23%）共记录了1，531处骨折。低能量创伤导致53%的骨折。在此期间，612例患者发生了单次骨折。323例有两处或两处以上的骨折，53%的风险持续额外的骨折。骨折发生率每10年增加40%。肋骨骨折最常见（246例），其次是手部骨折（241例）。135例为髋部骨折，75%由低能量创伤引起。骨折率为每1000人年20例，即，与其他研究相似。
The population-based Reykjavik Heart Study, started in 1967, aims at finding and evaluating risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. It included 4,137 men born between 1907 and 1934 and we examined all fractures recorded in these subjects from January 1977 until the end of December 2000, or death. Their mean age at the start of this study was 54 (42-69) years and the mean follow-up time 19 years.We examined the patients' records, including those from the Radiological Departments in all Reykjavik hospitals and the only out-patient accident clinic in Reykjavik. Old fractures and those caused by a malignancy were excluded. The intensity of the trauma was estimated from E-numbers.Altogether 1,531 fractures were recorded in 939 (23%) persons. A low-energy trauma caused 53% of all fractures. 612 had a single fracture during this period. 323 had two or more fractures-a 53% risk of sustaining additional fractures. The fracture incidence increased by 40% in each 10-year period.. Fractures of the ribs were commonest (246), followed by those of the hand (241). 135 were hip fractures, 75% caused by low-energy trauma. The fracture rate was 20 per 1000 persons year-i.e., similar to that in other studies.
