Value of serum uric acid in a risk prediction model for postmenopausal osteoporosis

Serum uric acid may have a contributory role in risk stratification for PMOP when combined with key clinical and laboratory markers. This nomogram-based model demonstrates moderate predictive performance; future large-scale multicenter prospective cohorts are warranted to validate these findings and to refine the model by accounting for potential confounding factors such as medication use, dietary intake, and lifestyle habits.
