Funded Activity Summary

Osteoporosis burden is due primarily to osteoporotic fractures resulting in economic and public health burden, increased disability, further fracture risk and more importantly early death. However, it remains under-treated although treatment reduces the number of fractures and may reduce early death. This study aims to understand which types of fractures result in early death and for which age groups and whether osteoporosis treatment does or does not reduce early death.
