Predictive Value of Low BMD for 1‐Year Fracture Outcomes Is Similar for Postmenopausal Women Ages 50‐64 and 65 and Older: Results From the National Osteoporosis Risk Assessment (NORA)

The relationship of low bone mass and fracture in younger postmenopausal women has not been extensively studied. In a large cohort of postmenopausal women ≥50 years of age, we found the relationship of BMD measured at peripheral sites and subsequent 1‐year fracture risk to be similar between women...
