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

Bone 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 ...

Epidemiology of hip fracture in Qatar and development of a country specific FRAX model

Archives of Osteoporosis, 2022
Summary Hip fracture data were retrieved from electronical medical records for the years 2017–2019 in the State of Qatar and used to create a FRAX® model to facilitate fracture risk assessment. Hip fracture rates were comparable with estimates from Saudi

FRAX-based intervention thresholds for Pakistan [PDF]

Osteoporosis International, 2021
We compared, for women in Pakistan, the utility of intervention thresholds either at a T-score ≤  - 2.5 or based on a FRAX probability equivalent to women of average body mass index (BMI) with a prior fragility fracture. Whereas the FRAX-based intervention threshold identified women at high fracture probability, the T-score threshold was less sensitive,

Systematic review of major osteoporotic fracture to hip fracture incidence rate ratios worldwide: implications for Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX)‐derived estimates

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2021
The Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) is the most widely used tool for fracture prediction. It provides 10‐year probabilities for hip and major osteoporotic fracture (MOF).

P142 Fracture risk in diabetes: to FRAX or not to FRAX?

Rheumatology, 2022
Abstract Background/Aims Diabetes mellitus is associated with decreased bone strength as well as increased fracture risk. The risk of fragility fracture increases with an increase in the duration of diabetes and worsening of glycemic control.

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

Journal 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.

FRAX: Facts and Fantasy

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2012
FRAX is an important web based tool to assess fragility fracture risk in osteoporosis. It has many important limitations too. Good clinical judgement is needed to interpret the results of FRAX. With increasing use we can improvise this tool further.
