Ireland DXA-FRAX may differ significantly and substantially to Web-FRAX

open access: yesArchives of Osteoporosis, 2023
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]

open access: yes, 2021
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 ...

Predictors of Fracture Risk and Bone Mineral Density in Men with Prostate Cancer on Androgen Deprivation Therapy

open access: yesJournal of Osteoporosis, 2011
Decrease of bone mineral density (BMD) and fracture risk is increased in men with prostate cancer receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). We looked at possible predictors of decreased BMD and increased fracture risk in men with prostate cancer ...

Role of Fracture Risk Assessment Tool and Bone Turnover Markers in Predicting All-Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
BackgroundFracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) and bone turnover markers (BTMs) predict fractures in the general population. However, the role of FRAX and BTMs in predicting mortality remains uncertain in hemodialysis (HD) patients.MethodsOne hundred and

FRAX (Australia) scores in women with impaired fasting glucose and diabetes

open access: yesBone Reports, 2019
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]

open access: yesCanadian Medical Association Journal, 2013
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

open access: yesArchives of Osteoporosis, 2021
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.

Is Turkish FRAX® Model Sufficient? The Analysis of Osteoporotic Fracture Risk in Turkish Population by Using Frax

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Turkish FRAX model in the prediction of osteoporotic fracture risk and to determine the factors that may affect the results in this model.

A study to predict fracture risk using bone mineral density and FRAX score in patients on chronic maintenance haemodialysis

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2022
Introduction: Disturbances in mineral and bone metabolism are prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and are important causes of morbidity also their diagnosis often delayed and require a spectrum of investigations.
