摘要

Osteoporosis is an important clinical problem in men. Men who sustain a hip fracture have excess mortality for up to 2 years following the fracture, and those who survive beyond this period of time are likely to have long-term functional impairment that can result in physical disability as well as increased risk for a second hip fracture.1 Prevention of hip and other osteoporotic fractures in men requires both the identification of those at risk for fracture and the availability of effective treatments to reduce fracture risk. Given that low bone mineral density (BMD) is a major risk factor for hip and other osteoporotic fractures in men as well as women,2'3 it is important to identify those men with osteoporosis or the combination of low BMD and clinical risk factors that portend a clinically important risk of fracture in the foreseeable future.
