2 Fig 1 Women with no previous fractures had better balance, measured with the Romberg test (range, 0−180s), than women whose most recent fracture had occurred at 65 to 75 years of age. There was no difference in balance between women with a fracture before the age of 65 years and women with no previous fractures. P values denote significance for comparisons with women without previous fractures (Mann-Whitney U test).
