Abstract
In this large population-based study, detection of patients at high risk of sustaining a major osteoporotic fracture within 10 years was more accurate with the NOF fixed threshold criteria as compared with the age-varying NOGG or BMD-only. However, special consideration and further studies are warranted in patients aged 75Â years or older with preserved bone density, which may benefit from non-medicinal interventions.
