Worldwide uptake of FRAX

Archives of Osteoporosis, 2014
The worldwide uptake of FRAX is described.The aim of this report was to determine the usage of FRAX worldwide over a 1-year period from 1 May 2012.The number of FRAX calculations from each country was assessed over a 1-year period and expressed as calculations per million of the population aged 50 years or more. Countries were colour coded according to

THE NEW PARADIGM IN DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF OSTEOPOROSIS: PREDICTION OF A 10-YEAR ABSOLUTE RISK OF FRACTURE (CALCULATOR FRAX)

Остеопороз и остеопатии, 2012
New tool to assess fracture probability — the 10-year absolute fracture risk (calculator FRAX), released by WHO in 2008 - is discussed in this review. Dual-energyX-rays absorptiometry (DXA) is considered as a gold standard of diagnosis of osteoporosis ...

Muscle Strength and Physical Performance Improve Fracture Risk Prediction Beyond Garvan and FRAX: The Osteoporotic Fractures in Men (MrOS) Study

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2021
Muscle strength and physical performance are associated with fracture risk in men. However, it is not known whether these measurements enhance fracture prediction beyond Garvan and FRAX tools.

FRAXE and mental retardation. [PDF]

Journal of Medical Genetics, 1995
Mental impairment and instability of the CCG repeat at FRAXE is described in six kindreds. Cosegregation of FRAXA and FRAXE was found within one of these kindreds. Cytogenetic expression of FRAXE was shown to skip a generation when associated with a reduction in size of the CCG expansion when transmitted through a male; however, in general ...

Osteoporosis treatment in Austria—assessment of FRAX-based intervention thresholds for high and very high fracture risk

Archives of Osteoporosis, 2022
Summary The adoption of the management pathway proposed by the National Osteoporosis Guideline Group (NOGG), UK applied using the Austrian FRAX® tool in a referral population of Austrian women categorises 22–29% of women age 40 years or more eligible for

Potential Extensions of the US FRAX Algorithm

Journal of Osteoporosis, 2012
To determine if the revised US FRAX can identify those at high risk for fractures at any skeletal site, we studied 250 women and 249 men ≥40 years old from an age-stratified random sample of Rochester, MN residents.

General Comorbidity Indicators Contribute to Fracture Risk Independent of FRAX: Registry-Based Cohort Study.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2022
CONTEXT FRAX® estimates 10-year fracture probability from osteoporosis-specific risk factors. Medical comorbidity indicators are associated with fracture risk but whether these are independent from those in FRAX is uncertain.

Artificial Intelligence for Bone: Theory, Methods, and Applications

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) offer the potential to improve bone research. The current review explores the contributions of AI to pathological study, biomarker discovery, drug design, and clinical diagnosis and prognosis of bone diseases. We envision that AI‐driven methodologies will enable identifying novel targets for drugs discovery. The

Do Additional Clinical Risk Factors Improve the Performance of Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) Among Postmenopausal Women? Findings From the Women's Health Initiative Observational Study and Clinical Trials

JBMR Plus, 2019
The ability of the fracture risk assessment tool (FRAX) to discriminate between women who do and do not experience major osteoporotic fractures (MOFs) is suboptimal. Adding common clinical risk factors may improve discrimination.
