In a 30-year period, 1,137 adult residents of Rochester, Minnesota experienced 1235 Colles' fractures. Fracture incidence among women increased over sixfold between ages 35-39 and 60-64 and then leveled off. Male rates were lower in every age group and did not rise as dramatically. Fractures associated with moderate trauma were responsible for the increased incidence with age and the excess among women. Overall, Rochester rates were 30 per cent or more greater than those reported from communities in other countries (Am J Public Health 1982; 72:605-607.).
在30年的时间里,明尼苏达州罗切斯特市的1137名成年居民发生了1235例科勒斯骨折。女性骨折发病率在35 - 39岁至60 - 64岁之间增加了六倍多,然后趋于平稳。每个年龄组男性的发病率都较低,且上升幅度没有那么大。与中度创伤相关的骨折导致了随年龄增长的发病率增加以及女性中的超额发病率。总体而言,罗切斯特市的发病率比其他国家社区报告的发病率高30%或更多(《美国公共卫生杂志》1982年;72:605 - 607)。
