The purpose of this study was to examine correlates for osteoporosis diagnosis and hip fracture among a national sample of women.
Data were extracted from the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III). This large-scale data set was collected by the National Center for Health Statistics.
The sample for this study included 2,336 women aged 50 years and older who resided in household interviewed for NHANES III.
Predictors for examination included age, race, heredity, body mass index, physical activity, smoking status, alcohol use, and dairy product use. Analyses were conducted using SAS procedures.
Correlates for screening and diagnosis of osteoporosis included age and race. Risk factors predicting hip fracture included age, race, low body mass index, and inactivity.
Recommendations emphasize screening of high-risk women, achieving and maintaining healthy body weights for underweight women, and obtaining moderate physical activity.
