Osteoporotic fractures affect 1 in 2 women and 1 in 3 men over 60 and result in significant disability and premature mortality. Yet, less than 20% of those affected are treated. One of the reasons for this neglect is an uncertainty surrounding the fracture mortality association. This study will explore the magnitude and causes of this association and the effect of treatment on its prevention in a large multinational study. If positive, this evidence will boost osteoporosis treatment.

骨质疏松性骨折影响60岁以上女性的1/2和男性的1/3，并导致严重的残疾和过早死亡。然而，只有不到20%的患者得到了治疗。这种忽视的原因之一是围绕骨折死亡率关联的不确定性。这项研究将在一项大型多国研究中探索这种关联的规模和原因以及治疗对其预防的影响。如果是阳性的，这一证据将促进骨质疏松症的治疗。
