Incidence of Fractures in Persons over 35 Years of Age: A Report to the M.R.C. Working Party on Fractures in the Elderly
Open accessAbstract
At a conference on Fractures in the Elderly con- vened by the Medical Research Council in 1956, there was much discussion on the importance of fractures of the femur in old people as a manifesta- tion of osteoporosis.Although it was agreed that such fractures occurred frequently, no precise data were available about the incidence of, as opposed to mortality from, these or other types of fractures in the elderly.A Working Party on Fractures in the Elderly* was, therefore, set up to examine this question and to provide information on these injuries.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
