We demonstrate that fracture-risk prediction based on administrative health data alone performs equally to prediction based on self-reported clinical risk factors.</p><h3>Background</h3><p>Accurate assessment of fracture risk is crucial. Unlike established risk prediction tools that rely on patient recall, the Fracture Risk Evaluation Model (FREM) utilises register data to estimate the risk of major osteoporotic fracture (MOF). We investigated whether adding self-reported clinical risk factors for osteoporosis to the FREM algorithm improved the prediction of 1-year fracture risk by comparing three approaches: the FREM algorithm (FREM^orig), clinical risk factors (CRF^only), and FREM combined with clinical risk factors (FREM-CRF).</p><h3>Method</h3><p>Clinical risk factor information was obtained through questionnaires sent to women aged 65–80 years living in the Region of Southern Denmark in 2010, who participated in the Risk-stratified Osteoporosis Strategy Evaluation study.

Positive and negative predictive values and concordance statistics were calculated for the performance of each approach using logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models.</p><h3>Results</h3><p>Of the 18,605 women included, 280 sustained a MOF within 1 year.

The discrimination of FREM^orig was similar to that of CRF^only, suggesting it may be possible to estimate fracture risk with the same precision by using register data instead of self-reported risk information.

Analysis of the dose–response relationship revealed a positive linear association between elevated blood glucose and the risk of osteopenia (<i>P</i> for overall &lt; 0.05, <i>P</i> for nonlinear = 0.77), but intake of low-sodium salt significantly reduced this risk. The risk of OP increased with age (<i>P</i> for overall &lt; 0.05, <i>P</i> for nonlinear = 0.72); low-sodium salt intake reduced this risk, with the effect being more pronounced among individuals &lt; 70 years old.</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>Low-sodium salt has a positive effect on maintaining BMD. Elevated blood glucose and age &lt; 70 years increase the risk of osteoporosis, but use of low-sodium salt mitigates this risk.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8283,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Osteoporosis","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143057807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
