Ireland DXA-FRAX may differ significantly and substantially to Web-FRAX
Abstract Summary Appropriate use of FRAX reduces the number of people requiring DXA scans, while contemporaneously determining those most at risk. We compared the results of FRAX with and without inclusion of BMD.

Fracture risk assessment by the FRAX model [PDF]
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 bone mineral ...

FRAX (Australia) scores in women with impaired fasting glucose and diabetes
Background: Diabetes is associated with higher fracture risk despite higher bone mineral density (BMD), with FRAX® underestimating risk. This study aimed to investigate FRAX score with and without BMD for women with normoglycaemia, impaired fasting ...

Conflicts at the heart of the FRAX tool [PDF]
Although the presence of osteoporosis, on average, predicts future fractures at the population level, accumulating evidence indicates that both the identification of fracture-prone individuals and the effectiveness of bone-targeted medications in preventing fractures are limited.

The application of FRAX in Saudi Arabia
Assessment and treatment pathways based on age-specific intervention thresholds in Saudi Arabi can be used to identify patients at high risk of fracture and avoid unnecessary treatment in those at low fracture risk.Intervention thresholds for the treatment of osteoporosis have historically been based on the measurement of bone mineral density.
