这项研究估计了老年华裔美国人、日裔美国人和韩裔美国人的全国特定年龄和性别的非创伤性髋部骨折发生率。基于 1992 名种族/族裔代码为“亚洲”和“其他”的 Medicare 参保者的 50% 样本，对具有独特中文（n= 24,366）、日本（n= 28,762）和韩国（n= 5,470）名字的人群进行了为期 2 年的被动跟踪，以进行住院治疗，诊断代码表明髋部骨折。研究人员对白人和黑人群体进行了跟踪比较。移民年份是根据社会安全号码的签发年份推断的。所有三个亚裔美国人群体的年龄调整髋部骨折发生率均低于白人。对于女性而言，相对于白人的标准化骨折比率，中国人为 30.1，日本人为 73.2，韩国人为 52.8；男性中，中国人的标准化骨折率为41.9，日本人为58.1，韩国人为90.7。在对年龄、性别和种族进行调整后，在 1965 年《移民法案》之后发放社会安全号码的人与 1965 年之前在美国的人相比，调整后的相对风险为 1.37（95% 置信区间 1.05-1.78）。Am J Epidemiol1997；146:502-9。
This study estimated national age- and sex-specific nontraumatic hip fracture incidence rates for elderly Chinese Americans, Japanese Americans, and Korean Americans. Based on a 50 percent sample of 1992 Medicare enrollees with the race/ethnicity code “Asian” and “other,” cohorts of persons with distinctive Chinese (n= 24,366), Japanese (n= 28,762), and Korean (n= 5,470) names were followed passively for 2 years for a hospitalization with a diagnostic code indicating hip fracture. Cohorts of whites and blacks were followed for comparison. Year of immigration was deduced from the year of issuance of the Social Security number. Age-adjusted hip fracture incidence was lower for all three Asian-American groups than for whites. For females, the standardized fracture ratio relative to whites was 30.1 for Chinese, 73.2 for Japanese, and 52.8 for Koreans; for males, the standardized fracture ratio was 41.9 for Chinese, 58.1 for Japanese, and 90.7 for Koreans. Persons whose Social Security numbers were issued after the Immigration Act of 1965 had an adjusted relative risk of 1.37 (95% confidence interval 1.05–1.78) compared with those in the US before that year, after adjustment for age, sex, and ethnic group.Am J Epidemiol1997;146:502-9.
