Age-specific effects of body size on fracture risk in later life: A lifecourse Mendelian randomization study

2021-12-07

Abstract excerpt

Musculoskeletal conditions, including fractures, can have severe and long-lasting consequences. Higher body mass index in adulthood is widely acknowledged to be protective for most fracture sites, indicated through previous clinical and epidemiological observational research. However, the association between weight and bone health is complex and sources of bias, induced by confounding factors, may have distorted e...
