Abstract
Less is known about recovery from hip fracture in men. We found differences in 25-hydroxyvitamin D and bone biomarkers between men and women during the year after hip fracture, underscoring the importance of vitamin D assessment in older men and pharmaceutical treatment to reduce bone resorption after hip fracture.
