Summary
Low Body Mass Index (BMI) is a risk factor for hip fracture, but it is unknown if it is the low BMI per se that increases risk of hip fracture or if specific micro-nutrients contribute. The investigators want to elucidate this aspect in a case control study studying micronutrients in serum and bone turnover markers of hip fracture patients compared with controls of the same age.
