The parameter of interest in this study is the risk of osteoporosis. The study aimed to determine if there was a correlation between steroid use and higher risk of osteoporosis among women who died between 1990 and 2000. The other listed parameters (year of death, years of steroid use, cause of death, and gender) are not the focus of the study and are not analyzed in relation to the risk of osteoporosis.
