Nutritional Risk Factors for Hip Fracture: a Case Control Study

NCT01738776 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 184

Last updated 2012-12-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Low Body Mass Index (BMI) is a risk factor for hip fracture, but it is unknown if it is the low BMI per se that increases risk of hip fracture or if specific micro-nutrients contribute. The investigators want to elucidate this aspect in a case control study studying micronutrients in serum and bone turnover markers of hip fracture patients compared with controls of the same age.
