Relationship between areal BMD, FRAX®, and femoral strength in community-dwelling older Asian adults
Age-related trajectories for aBMD, FRAX-HFP, TSTT, and femoral strength were found to be consistent with the hip fracture trends in Singapore. FRAX-HFP and femoral strength identified different individuals at risk, indicating that each, either alone or combined with aBMD, could improve the ability to assess hip fracture risk.
