  • Title: Clinical management of osteoporosis in Singapore.
    Author: Hong LK.
    Journal: Clin Calcium; 2004 Sep; 14(9):112-5. PubMed ID: 15577122.
    Abstract:
    Osteoporosis is as common in Singapore as it is in Western countries and the incidence of hip fractures has risen five times among women in the last 30 years. Current treatment involves appropriate use of bone mineral density measurements and many medications are now available which can substantially reduce the risk of fractures. Increasing awareness of osteoporosis in the general population and keeping doctors updated about the latest trends in management are extremely important.
