The epidemiology of spinal fractures: A nationwide data-based study in Iran

According to the results of the present study, trauma is more severe, and cervical injuries are more common in young people, which is a critical finding that underscores the need for targeted interventions to mitigate the severity of trauma in this age group. Additionally, the majority of cervical injuries occurred in young people, which is a particularly concerning finding given the potential for long-term disability and impact on quality of life. Our findings suggest that strategies to reduce cervical injuries, such as speed control, seat belt use, and phone-free driving, are crucial interventions for mitigating the severity of trauma and promoting patient outcomes in young people.
