Identification of High‐Risk Individuals for Hip Fracture: A 14‐Year Prospective Study

In this 14‐year prospective study, men and women were found to share a common set of risk factors for hip fracture: low BMD, postural instability and/or quadriceps weakness, a history of falls, and prior fracture. The combination of these risk factors accounted for 57% and 37% of hip fractures in women and men, respectively.
