Vertebral Fractures Assessed by Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry and All-Cause Mortality:The Tromsø Study, 2007-2020
Vertebral fractures have been associated with increased mortality, but findings are inconclusive, and many vertebral fractures avoid clinical attention. We investigated this association in a general population of 2,476 older adults aged =55 years from Tromsø, Norway, who were followed over 2007-2020...
