Increased Cortical Porosity in Older Men With Fracture

Cortical porosity increases with age and affects bone strength, but its association with fracture in older men is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate whether cortical porosity is associated with prevalent fractures in older men. A subsample of 456 men aged 80.2 ± 3.5 (mean ± SD) years, with available high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography measurements at the tibia from the 5-year follow-up exam, was drawn from...
