The introduction of the FRAX® algorithms has facilitated the assessment of fracture risk on the basis of fracture probability. FRAX integrates the influence of several well-validated risk factors for fracture with or without the use of BMD. Since age-specific rates of fracture and death differ across the world, all FRAX models are calibrated with ...

FRAX® with and without Bone Mineral Density
Calcified Tissue International, 2011 The use of FRAX, particularly in the absence of BMD, has been the subject of some debate and is the focus of this review. The clinical risk factors used in FRAX have high validity as judged from an evidence-based assessment and identify a risk that is ...

Evolutionary design of FRAX decks
2017 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC), 2017A deck-based game is a game derived from a mathematical game by placing instances of its moves on a deck of cards. Initial work on deck-based games demonstrated that imposing the deck formalism can completely change the nature of the game. In this study, an evolutionary algorithm is used to design decks for a deck-based version of John Nash's classic ...

Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements have been widely used in clinical practice for the diagnosis of osteoporosis, monitoring of treatment, and prediction of fracture risk. However, although BMD values show high specificity for prediction of fractures, their sensitivity is quite low.

The effects of a FRAX® revision for the USA
Osteoporosis International, 2009A revision (version 3.0) of the fracture risk assessment tool (FRAX) is developed based on an update of epidemiological information for the USA. With the revised tool, there were strong correlations (r > 0.99) between versions 2.0 and 3.0 for FRAX estimates of fracture probability, but the revised models gave lower probability estimates.The aim of this

As noted in the chapter about diagnosing osteoporosis (see Chap. 1), T-scores alone may not be adequate to predict the risk for fragility fractures and diagnose the disease state of osteoporosis because bone density testing only partially explains the risk for fracture.
