SAMMENDRAG
Tromsø Osteoporose Studie (TROST) er knyttet til den fjerde store befolkningsundersøkelsen som
gjennomføres i Tromsø. Vår tilgang til Tromsøundersøkelsenes kartlegging av livsstilsfaktorer,
risikofaktorer for hjerte-kar sykdom samt flere kliniske- og laboratoriemålinger i befolkningen gjennom de
siste 20 år gjør TROST til en unik studie i verdenssammenheng. Pr 1. oktober 1995 vil vi ha undersøkt
bentetthet i underarm hos ca. 8 000 personer. De fire delprosjektene som drives under TROST tar for seg
bentetthet, biokjemiske markører for osteoporose, klinisk osteoporose og brudd. En nærmere presentasjon
av hvert prosjekt gis i teksten.

Research on osteoporosis in Tromsø.
ENGLISH SUMMARY
The Tromsø Osteoporosis Study (TROST) is part of the fourth large population based study being
conducted in Tromsø, Norway. Our access to data from the current and previous Tromsø studies providing
information on lifestyle factors, risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and several clinical and laboratory
measurements in the population throughout the last 20 years makes TROST a unique study internationally.
By October 1, 1995, we will have examined bone mineral density in the forearm of 8 000 subjects. The four
research projects under TROST focus on determinants of bone mineral density, biochemical markers of
osteoporosis, clinical osteoporosis and determinants of osteoporotic fractures. A presentation of each
project is given in the text.
