Of these, an estimated 832\u2008591 (80%) fractures occurred among women. The incidence of fractures among women increased gradually with age from the age of 50\u2005years. In men, fracture rates remained low until later in life. Between 2001 and 2007, fracture rates increased predominantly among women in the age group 50\u201359\u2005years at an annual rate of 3.9% (95% CI \u22120.1 to 8.2).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The study indicates marked gender differences in unintentional fall related forearm and\/or wrist fractures among adults aged \u226550\u2005years treated in US hospital emergency departments.
