Number indicates the number of unique patients with at least one recorded fracture. Unless specifically indicated, fractures include vertebral, hip, or wrist. Prevalence indicates the number of patients with a fracture divided by the overall number of patients in the corresponding demographic group and multiplied by 100, indicating prevalence per 100 persons.
