Association between osteoporosis under treatment and all-cause and specific-cause mortalities: a nationwide retrospective cohort study in South Korea
Osteoporosis treatment was associated with reduced all-cause and specific-cause mortalities, particularly from neoplasms and metabolic diseases. Further studies, particularly randomized controlled trials, are required to confirm these results, establish causality, and explore the medication-specific effects on mortality.
