    Characteristics of hip fractures cases among community-dwelling Icelandic older adults 
    Skúladóttir, Sigrún Sunna (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Food Science and Nutrition, 2022-06-29)
    Abstract Background: Hip fractures in older adults are strongly associated with reduced health and quality of life. Loss of bone mass, physical function and muscle mass are thought to be main causes of hip fractures at older age. Associations between ...
