Heritable and environmental factors in the causation of clinical vertebral fractures.

Calcified tissue international - 1 Jun 2012

Abstract excerpt

Vertebral fractures are common osteoporotic fractures, and their incidence is greater in Scandinavia than in other European regions. Vertebral fractures are strongly associated with low bone mineral density, which has a predominant genetic etiology. The heritability of radiological vertebral deformities has been estimated in one recent family study. The objective of our study was to determine the genetic...
