An Editorial Published in Osteoporosis International Responds to the BMJ Article Claiming an Overdiagnosis of Osteoporosis
An editorial published this week in Osteoporosis International responds to the recent British Medical Journal (BMJ) article that claimed osteoporosis is overdiagnosed. The editorial, authored by Professor Juliet Compston, Chair of the National Osteoporosis Guideline Group and IOF EU Osteoporosis Consultation Panel, argues that the article’s authors used a selective and misleading presentation of published evidence to grossly misrepresent the burden of osteoporosis.
