SummaryThe incidence of forearm fractures for men and women ≥40 years in Central Norway was high during the period 1999–2012. A decline in fractures was observed only among women over 50 years. A seasonal variation with highest incidence in the winter months was found among women. Purpose The aim of this study was to examine the incidence of forearm fractures in Central Norway in men and women 40 years...
Summary Based on a total of 136,140 hip fractures, we found a distinct seasonal variation in hip fracture incidence present in subgroups defined by age, gender, and comorbidity. The seasonal variation was most pronounced in the youngest and the healthiest patients. Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the possible seasonal variation in hip fracture incidence in Norway by comorbidity,...
There is a substantial variation in hip fracture incidence between populations. The Scandinavian countries have the highest incidence of hip fractures worldwide, and latitude and seasonal variation have been discussed as possible reasons for the high fracture incidences. The purpose of this study was to investigate time dependent and seasonal variation of hip fractures in a population based cohort...
