Abstract
Older community-dwelling men with lower eGFRcys have an increased risk of hip fracture that is explained in large part by greater burden of risk factors among men with lower eGFRcys. In contrast, lower eGFRcr or lower eGFRcr-cys was not associated with a higher age-adjusted hip fracture risk.
