Prevalence of vertebral fracture in Asian men and women: Comparison between Hong Kong, Thailand, Indonesia and Japan
2012, Public HealthCitation Excerpt :For Asian women, a review of vertebral fracture revealed that the prevalence of vertebral fracture increases steeply with age in Beijing: the prevalence of vertebral fracture in Chinese women aged 50–59 years was 3.9%, compared with 10.5%, 15% and 31.2% at ages 60–69, 70–79 and ≥80 years.6,20,21 A similar trend has also been observed among Japanese women residing in Japan and Hawaii22,23; the rates were slightly higher for those living in Japan (8%, 25%, 38% and 43% for ages 65–70, 70–75, 75–80 and 80–85 years, compared with 5%, 15%, 25% and 27% for those living in Hawaii in 1996), suggesting that environmental factors are more influential than genetic factors.24 Horikawa et al. reported a prevalence of 22.6% for Japanese women aged 65–92 years living in a fishing/farming village located in Nansei-cho in 2001.25
Prevalence of pre-stroke low bone mineral density and vertebral fracture in first stroke patients
2008, BoneCitation Excerpt :Similarly, in Hong Kong, southern China, the prevalence of vertebral fracture is 29% for women 70–79 years of age [35]. Similar figures were reported in Japanese populations residing either in Japan or Hawaii [36]. In the present study, the prevalence of vertebral fractures was 25%.
Vertebral Fracture Assessment: The 2007 ISCD Official Positions
2008, Journal of Clinical DensitometryCitation Excerpt :Documentation of a prevalent vertebral fracture is most likely to impact therapy to reduce fracture risk among this subset of women compared to other subsets of the post-menopausal population. Both prevalent and incident vertebral fractures are moderately to strongly associated with bone mineral density; in studies to date, odds ratios of 1.5 to 2.4 have been observed for each standard deviation (SD) decrease in femoral neck, total hip or lumbar spine BMD (45–51). While the prevalence of vertebral fractures is therefore greatest among those with osteoporosis by BMD criteria (central site T-score ≤ −2.5), cross-sectional studies show that about half to a modest majority of post-menopausal women with a prevalent vertebral fracture do not have osteoporosis by BMD criteria measured at the femoral neck (45,50,52–57), and over one-third do not have a T-score ≤ −2.5 at either the spine or hip (49).
