The Accuracy of Incident Vertebral Fracture Detection in Children Using Targeted Case‐Finding Approaches

ABSTRACT Vertebral fractures are clinically important sequelae of a wide array of pediatric diseases. In this study, we examined the accuracy of case‐finding strategies for detecting incident vertebral fractures (IVF) over 2 years in glucocorticoid‐treated children (n = 343) with leukemia, rheumatic...

Zusammenfassung:ABSTRACT Vertebral fractures are clinically important sequelae of a wide array of pediatric diseases. In this study, we examined the accuracy of case‐finding strategies for detecting incident vertebral fractures (IVF) over 2 years in glucocorticoid‐treated children (n = 343) with leukemia, rheumatic disorders, or nephrotic syndrome. Two clinical situations were addressed: the prevalent vertebral fracture (PVF) scenario (when baseline PVF status was known), which assessed the utility of PVF and low lumbar spine bone mineral density (LS BMD; Z‐score
