Development and validation of a nomogram for predicting low bone mineral density in male patients with ankylosing spondylitis
This study developed clinical prediction models with excellent discriminative ability and substantial clinical utility for male patients with AS. These models offer rheumatologists an efficient tool to rapidly assess individual risks of low BMD, facilitating early diagnostic decision-making and enabling personalized interventions tailored to anatomical site-specific osteoporosis risks.
